“Cabinetry included.”Which cabinets, exactly?

Identify each cabinet’s location, width, height, depth and quantity. State the pricing unit and calculation, whether by length, area or complete unit, and how size changes affect the price.

Specify the cabinet body, back, shelves and doors separately: material, thickness and finish. A brand name alone is not enough. Record how substitute products will be agreed.

List brands, models, quantities and functions for hinges, runners, handles and accessories. Put soft-close, push-to-open and any agreed load requirements in writing.

Separate flat, shaped and glass doors. Match quantities, opening directions, handles and the treatment of gaps to the drawings, and identify options priced separately.

An exterior drawing may not show what is inside. Match drawer counts, internal dimensions, drawer-bottom materials and shelf positions to both the drawings and the price.

Record the areas to finish, colour code, sheen and texture. Identify the sample used for approval and who handles touch-ups, installation damage or colour differences.

Describe junctions with walls, ceilings, floors and skirting. Assign filler panels, sealing and wall repairs to the appropriate trade instead of leaving the boundary unclear.

Check protection, carrying, installation, old-cabinet removal and disposal separately. Do not assume sockets, lighting, glass, mirrors or pipe relocation are included in the carpentry price.
