Commercial Cabinetry designed, built and installed for Newport Beach — tiny harbour lots with nowhere to stage and salt air on every elevation. Our Los Angeles showroom serves Orange County; Newport projects are scheduled as full-day site visits.
California commercial interiors are judged visually in a way that most markets are not — retail and hospitality here expect the joinery to carry the brand, not just the storage. That means sculpted and curved work, continuous surfaces and finishes that photograph, all of which still have to survive a commercial duty cycle. Accessibility requirements affect counter heights and reach ranges, and those get designed in rather than corrected later.
Balboa and Lido lots are famously small, with houses built to the line and streets barely wide enough for a delivery truck. Cabinetry is sized to be walked in, and installs are sequenced tightly because there is nowhere to stage material.
This is a boating and waterfront market, so salt exposure is constant and outdoor living is used year round. Aluminium rather than stainless is the right answer for exterior cabinetry here.
Coastal building rules apply near the water, and anything affecting an exterior should have its approvals confirmed before it is fabricated.
The specification below is the same whether the job is in Newport Beach or anywhere else we work — it is how we build, not what we build for the market.
Commercial joinery gets touched by hundreds of people a week and cleaned every night, so it is specified for wear first. We build reception desks, retail fixtures, office and hospitality joinery to commercial-grade finishes with edges detailed to survive trolleys, bags and chairs — and we work to a programme, because a fit-out has a trading date.
Shop-fabricated, delivered flat where it helps, and installed in the window the site actually has — including overnight.
For a rollout, the joinery is drawn as a kit of parts so the second store costs less than the first and looks like its sibling.
Finishes, edges and hardware chosen for daily abuse and nightly cleaning rather than for a domestic duty cycle.

We work throughout Newport Beach, including Balboa Island, Corona del Mar, Newport Coast, Lido Isle and Harbor Island. The housing here is harbour-front houses on small island lots, larger estates in Newport Coast, and a dense stock of 1970s and 1980s homes being rebuilt, and the cabinetry is specified for it rather than to a national standard.
Our Los Angeles showroom serves Orange County; Newport projects are scheduled as full-day site visits. The showroom is at 506 S Spring St. Bring the plans, or send them over and we will itemise the cabinetry by room before you visit.
Every project is photographed room by room with the materials and the detailing listed, so you can see how a job like this is actually put together before you commit to one.

You can also search every finish we specify and every appliance we design around.
One shop draws, finishes and installs all of it, which is why the closet matches the kitchen and there is one number to call when something needs adjusting.
