History

he Cabinetry’s roots date back to 1960, when Marlene’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

he entire Cabinetry staff 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. Our designers incorporate these desires to create a kitchen that is designed around you, not us. What’s more, our staff is 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.
