History
The
Cabinetry’s roots date back to 1960 when Marlene
Ketchen’s grandfather Norman MacDonald started
manufacturing cabinetry under the name MacDonald
Kitchens. Before long, all five of his sons, including
Marlene’s father, Paul, became involved in the family
business.
Eventually, Paul and his brother, Frank spun off the
business into a company that manufactured cabinetry
hardware. During this venture, Paul invented the popular
“Shelf Lock,” a product that revolutionized the
cabinetry shipping process. The new product allows
cabinetry to be shipped with the shelves installed. Paul
and Frank were the sole owners of the product patent for
25 years and it is still used today.
In the mid-1980’s, Marlene’s uncle, Ed MacDonald, left
manufacturing to go into the custom kitchen design
business. In 1993, he started Kitchen-N-Counters, and
successfully built an ever-growing client base
throughout the South Shore. Marlene joined the company
in 2002 and spent a year working alongside her uncle
before purchasing the company in 2003. Integrity The
Cabinetry emphasizes integrity, courtesy, communication
and precise attention to detail. It is the foundation of
our success and a reputation in which we take great
pride. Our experience and expertise in the design of
upscale kitchens ensures that our clients have a
positive kitchen design experience that translates into
an innovative and functional room for your home.
When we take on a project, we do it completely. We begin
by finding out your wants and needs. We encourage you to
gather as many photos of different designs that match
your vision, in an effort to fully understand your style
requests. We review everything with you, from moldings
and accessories to appliances and lighting. Then we
incorporate these desires to create a kitchen that is
designed around you, not us. What’s more, we are skilled
in the latest computer-assisted drafting technology to
provide detailed engineered drawings to ensure the
installation is seamless.
We also take precautions to avoid unnecessary delays
from the beginning. We never start a job until all of
the materials are shipped to our warehouse and are
inspected completely. Our goal is to make the entire
process as easy as possible for our customers.
