Custom Cabinets in Parkland, FL

From Builder Grade to Built for You

Many requests for custom cabinets in Parkland, FL come from owners of relatively new homes who are ready to replace what the builder installed. Parkland had no stores or traffic lights until the mid-1990s and early 2000s, when neighborhoods such as Heron Bay and Parkland Isles were built, and the population climbed from 13,835 in 2000 to 34,670 in 2020. A lot of those houses still have their original production cabinets: decent enough on move-in day, but rarely planned around how a particular family cooks, stores and entertains.

Why upgrade cabinets in a newer house

Builder kitchens tend to use standard box widths, short uppers that leave a gap below the ceiling, and few drawers. In a home that is otherwise generous, that is often the weakest room. Custom work lets us take the uppers to the ceiling, swap base doors for deep drawers, add an island with seating and storage on both sides, and build a proper walk-in or butler's pantry where a reach-in used to be.

Families that need room

In 2020, 52.2% of Parkland households included children under 18, and Census estimates put the average household at 3.33 people with 85.1% of homes owner-occupied. Those numbers translate directly into storage demand. Beyond the kitchen, projects that suit homes like these include:

  • Walk-in closet systems with islands, shoe walls and lighted hanging
  • Media walls and entertainment centers with ventilated equipment cabinets
  • Bathroom vanities with double sinks and tower storage
  • Homework stations and home offices
  • Laundry rooms with folding counters and hanging rods
  • Garage cabinet systems for sports equipment

Kitchens for entertaining

Larger Parkland homes often have an open plan where the kitchen faces the family room and the pool. That layout rewards a kitchen designed for a crowd: an island long enough for several stools, a beverage center away from the cooking zone so guests stay out of the way, a second dishwasher, and a scullery or butler's pantry to hide small appliances and dirty dishes during a party.

Outdoor living

Parkland's zoning is designed to protect the park-like character of the city, and many homes are built around patios, pools and screened lanais. Outdoor kitchen cabinets let you cook outside without carrying everything back and forth. We build them from weather-rated materials with hardware that handles heat, rain and humidity.

HOAs and your interior

Many Parkland neighborhoods are governed by homeowners associations. Under Florida Statute 720.3035, an association may not impose requirements on the interior of a home that cannot be seen from the frontage, adjacent parcels, common areas or a community golf course, and it may not require you to obtain a building permit as a prerequisite for its review. Interior cabinetry generally falls outside architectural review. Outdoor kitchens that are visible from the street or a golf course may be reviewed, so we can prepare drawings if your association asks for them.

Material choices for a wet climate

The local wet season runs from May through October. Even in a new, tightly built house, we specify plywood for sink bases and wet areas and seal all exposed edges.

Parkland Questions

Our Parkland home was built in the 2000s. Is it too soon to replace the cabinets?

Not if they do not work for you. Many builder kitchens from that period have short uppers, few drawers and limited pantry space. Replacing them can add a lot of usable storage without changing the footprint of the room.

Will my Parkland HOA need to approve an outdoor kitchen?

Possibly, if it can be seen from the street, a neighbor or a golf course. Interior cabinets are generally outside HOA review under Florida law, but visible exterior work often is reviewed. We can supply drawings for your application.

Can you design a walk-in closet with an island?

Yes, if the room is large enough for clearance on all sides. We measure the closet, plan hanging, drawers and shoe storage around your wardrobe, and add lighting so everything is easy to see.
