Custom Cabinets for San Francisco Homes
We Design, Build, Paint, and Install Custom Built-ins for Modern and Victorian Homes
Is Your Home Missing the Storage and Function You Need?
Maybe you recently bought a home, are working from home more often, your family is growing, or you simply need to make better use of the space you already have.
You have ideas — but you also want expert guidance to bring them together in a way that looks right and works well.
Most homeowners come to us dealing with an awkward layout, not enough storage, too much clutter, or rooms that no longer fit how they live.
With the right design, those frustrating spaces can become some of the most useful and beautiful parts of your home.
Why Homeowners Choose SJ Sallinger Designs
Most cabinetry projects involve multiple specialists — a designer, a cabinet maker, and a contractor. At SJ Sallinger Designs, that's all one team. We manage your project from concept to completion, handling design, building, painting, delivery, and installation in-house, so the experience is seamless from start to finish.
Every cabinet we build is designed around your home's architecture, your room's proportions, and your lifestyle. We don't work with fixed sizes or off-the-shelf solutions — we custom-make inset-style cabinetry that feels like it's always belonged there.

FAQ’s about Custom Cabinetry
-
Custom cabinets should last between 30 to 100 years. However, the hinges, sliders, and finish are typically the first to fail on many cabinets. Lower-quality cabinets may experience hardware and finish failure much sooner. At SJ Sallinger, we use real wood, quality hardware, and a durable painted finish that can be refreshed, ensuring our cabinets last the life of your home.
-
It takes about 3 to 5 weeks to build custom cabinets once the cabinet maker has the designs. However, the finishing and installation processes have separate timelines.
-
The cost of custom built-in cabinets varies depending on factors such as style, finish, and scope of service. Overlay-style cabinets are generally less expensive, while stained wood finishes can be pricier due to the additional steps involved. Choosing a full-service company like SJ Sallinger for design to installation tends to be more cost-effective than hiring individual professionals separately.
-
Yes, it's worth it to get custom cabinets. Custom cabinets enhance the way you use a space and provide you with extra storage organization if done correctly. Additionally, quality cabinets can add cash value to your home.
-
To choose a cabinet maker, look for three key things. Firstly, ensure they have a good reputation, which you can establish by reading reviews or speaking with their clients. Secondly, consider the scope of the service they offer. Do they provide full service from design to installation, and is that what you need? And thirdly, do you like them? Did they answer your questions professionally? Do you feel comfortable having them in your home?
