According to the National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA), the average cost of a set of kitchen cabinets is approximately $10,000. This figure varies greatly depending on factors such as size, materials used, brand name, installation fees, delivery costs and other associated expenses. The most important factor that affects the cost of kitchen cabinets is material selection. Different woods have different ranges in terms of durability and prices. Plywood or particleboard are considered entry-level materials while custom solid wood or exotic veneers are more expensive options. Kitchen cabinetry also comes in various configurations ranging from standard stock models to semi-custom models with limited options for sizing, styling and finish details that can be adjusted accordingly according to personal preferences. As a result, prices for semi-custom units typically range from $4,000 – $20,000 for an average sized kitchen depending on sizes chosen in relation to door style selected and other add-on amenities included like pull out shelving drawers etc… In addition to material selection it should also be taken into account that cabinet installations often require additional services such as demolition work as well as electrical wiring system upgrades if necessary which can contribute significantly towards overall costs when factoring in labor charges by skilled contractors who specialize in this field. In general most deliveries will come with a set up crew too who can manage all aspects related to these type installations by either themselves or working through local carpenters/contractors located nearby your residence if needed or requested. Overall one must keep close watch over any changes that may affect the bottom line when comparing quotes given before making purchase decisions so they are aware of what they’re investing into when it comes time to pay up at completion stage after project has been thoroughly inspected by them first prior signing off on any items(s).
