A great kitchen lives or dies on the install. Cabinets that are perfectly level, plumb, and scribed tight to the walls look and function beautifully for decades. Cabinets that are rushed or set by an amateur show every gap, sag, and misaligned door. At Knack Woodcraft, professional cabinet installation is core to what we do — for the cabinets we build in our own shop, and for cabinets you bought somewhere else.
We install cabinets you bought elsewhere
Bought your cabinets from IKEA, a big-box store, or an online supplier and need a pro to set them right? That is one of our specialties. Flat-pack and ready-to-assemble cabinets can deliver excellent value — but the finished result depends entirely on the install. We handle:
- IKEA kitchen cabinets — assembly and precise installation of the SEKTION system and similar
- Big-box and stock cabinets — from home-improvement retailers
- Online and direct-ship cabinets — RTA and assembled orders
- Contractor- and designer-supplied cabinets — dependable install for your project
- Cabinets we build — our own custom Euro frameless cabinetry
What a professional install includes
Setting cabinets is precise work. A proper installation from Knack includes:
- Verifying your layout, measurements, and appliance clearances before anything goes on the wall
- Establishing a true level base line and marking studs
- Hanging and setting boxes plumb, level, and square — shimmed and joined into clean runs
- Securing cabinets solidly to framing so nothing sags or pulls loose
- Scribing fillers, end panels, and toe kicks tight to walls and floors that are never perfectly straight
- Hanging doors and aligning drawers so every gap is even and every soft-close lands right
- Installing crown, light rail, and trim for a finished, built-in look
- Cleaning up and walking the finished result with you
Install-only and field-measure service
You do not have to buy cabinets from us to hire us to install them. We offer install-only scopes and professional field measure as standalone services — popular with homeowners who supplied their own cabinets and with builders and designers who need a reliable installer for a specific job. If you want a second set of expert eyes on your measurements before you order, we can help with that too.

We install across Denver Metro and Northern Colorado, including Fort Collins, Loveland, Windsor, Timnath, Greeley, Longmont, and Berthoud. Whether it is a full kitchen, a laundry or mudroom, a bathroom vanity run, or a set of built-ins, we bring shop-grade precision to your install.

Do you install cabinets I bought somewhere else?
Yes. Professional installation of cabinets you purchased elsewhere is one of our specialties. We regularly install IKEA, big-box, online, and contractor-supplied cabinets, along with the cabinets we build in our own shop. If you bought the boxes and need a pro to set them right, that is exactly what we do.
Do you install IKEA kitchen cabinets?
We do. IKEA cabinets can be a great value, but a clean result depends on precise layout, level and plumb setting, solid wall attachment, and careful scribing to walls and floors. We assemble and install IKEA and similar flat-pack systems so they look and function like a fully custom kitchen.
What does a cabinet installation include?
A typical install includes verifying your layout and measurements, setting a level base line, hanging and setting boxes plumb and square, securing them to studs, joining and shimming runs, scribing filler and end panels to fit, hanging doors, aligning drawers, and adding toe kick, crown, and trim as needed. We leave the site clean and walk the finished result with you.
Do you offer install-only or field-measure service?
Yes. We offer install-only scopes and professional field measure whether or not we built the cabinets. This is popular with homeowners who purchased their own cabinets and with builders and designers who need a dependable installer for a specific project.
What areas do you serve for cabinet installation?
We install across the Colorado Front Range, including Denver Metro and Northern Colorado communities such as Fort Collins, Loveland, Windsor, Timnath, Greeley, Longmont, and Berthoud. If you are nearby and not listed, reach out and we will let you know if we can help.
How much does cabinet installation cost?
Installation pricing depends on the number of cabinets, the complexity of the layout, site conditions, and whether trim, crown, and filler work are involved. After we review your project and measurements, we provide a clear, itemized quote so there are no surprises.
