1. What are Ready to Assemble Kitchen Cabinets?
Ready to assemble kitchen cabinets can completely transform your kitchen!
Ready to assemble kitchen cabinets, or RTA kitchen cabinets, are a type of cabinet that arrives as a set of unassembled, individual parts, ready for you to put together to prepare for installation.
They are often shipped in kits, often called “flat packs”, that contain all the materials and hardware necessary for the homeowner to assemble the cabinets on-site.
Do not worry, ready to assemble kitchen cabinets are made using the same range of materials as conventional cabinets. If you order with Canada Cabinets Online, you will receive beautiful hand-crafted maple cabinets.
Overall, RTA cabinets offer a cost-effective and convenient option for homeowners who want to remodel their kitchens on a budget without sacrificing quality
2. Why Purchase RTA Cabinets?
- Affordability: RTA cabinets are more affordable than pre-assembled cabinets because they cost less to transport and store. They are shipped in flat packs, which reduces shipping costs, and they require less space to store, which reduces storage costs. In the U.S. for example, custom cabinets cost $500-$1200 per linear foot, whereas RTA cabinets cost $175 to $400 per linear foot.
- Customization: RTA cabinets come in a wide range of styles, colours, and finishes, which allows homeowners to customize their kitchens to their liking. They can choose from a variety of door styles, drawer fronts, and hardware options to create a unique look that reflects their personal style.
- Easy assembly: RTA cabinets are designed for quick and easy assembly. Most products need nothing more than glue, wood dowels, and screws, all of which should be supplied with the cabinets. Even if you do plan to hire a professional installer, RTA cabinetry has fewer requirements and can be installed more quickly than pre-assembled cabinets.
- High-quality materials: RTA cabinets are made from high-quality materials, such as solid wood, plywood, and medium-density fibreboard (MDF). They are more durable than pre-assembled cabinets, they can also support heavy loads and withstand heavy usage in high-traffic areas. Our RTA cabinets are made from solid maple hardwood, face-fronts and doors. The boxes and shelves are made from high-quality plywood which is very important for installations that are in the basement or near waterfronts because particleboard and MDF tend to expand with any sign of humidity.
- Convenience: RTA cabinets can be purchased online or in-store and shipped directly to your home. This makes it easy to shop for cabinets from the comfort of your own home and eliminates the need to transport large, heavy cabinets from the store to your home.
- Time-saving: The overall time it would take for a homeowner to receive their RTA cabinets is much shorter than pre-assembled cabinets. The parts are cut to size, holes have been drilled where needed, and any finishes you requested have been applied. Then the parts are stacked and wrapped. You can bring them home from the store, if they have them in stock, or have them shipped to your home.
In summary, RTA cabinets offer homeowners an affordable, customizable, and convenient option for remodelling their kitchens. They are made from high-quality materials and are easy to assemble, making them a popular choice for homeowners who want to save money on their kitchen remodels.
Also, there is something to be said about DIY projects and the sense of accomplishment you get once you complete a major renovation. After constructing and installing your ready to assemble kitchen cabinets you will feel good knowing you did something productive. Also, you will appreciate your cabinets more knowing the work that went into installing them.
