  • Weight of drawer base?

    Posted by Birgit on August 4, 2026 at 9:12 am

    Hello. Could you give me an idea of what a 48″ wide 3-drawer base at standard kitchen counter height would weigh? I assume your cabinets are flat-packed one package per cabinet? Just wondering how tough those are going to be to unload and carry. Thanks!

    The drawer boxes, cabinet cases, doors, and hardware are all packaged separately. We do not pull completed cabinets from a rack and ship them out like many other RTA cabinet suppliers.

    All of our products are custom-made and packaged by component. You will typically receive one package for the cabinet case, another for the doors, another for the drawer boxes, and additional packaging for the hardware included with the combined cabinet order.

    This packaging method makes it much easier to move the individual components around the jobsite after the pallet has been opened and inspected. If each cabinet were packaged as one complete unit, the combined weight would be substantial and much more difficult to handle during production, shipping, and installation.
