Can you meet aggressive apartment complex delivery schedules?

Direct Answer

Yes. Cabo Cabinet Group operates a 700,000 square foot factory with monthly capacity for roughly 8,000 apartment units of cabinetry, about 200 shipping containers. The standard timeline runs about five weeks total from confirmed specification to cabinets on your job site: approximately 30 days production, then under seven days delivery by land. For context, Asia adds 45 to 90 days of ocean transit to similar production schedules. This land delivery advantage makes Cabo a reliable partner when you are working against tight general contractor schedules or penalty clauses.

Volume is not an obstacle. The factory processes projects ranging from six cabinet test units to full portfolio programs running hundreds of units monthly over years. National Accounts handles the highest volume buyers with dedicated production windows and priority scheduling.

Why It Matters

Apartment construction runs on interconnected schedules. Cabinet delivery delays push back countertop templates, appliance installs, final inspections, and ultimately occupancy dates. Every week of delay costs you in extended construction loans, missed lease revenue, and general contractor liquidated damages. A five week cabinet cycle gives you schedule predictability that ocean freight cannot match.

The seven day land transit also provides flexibility. If you need to accelerate a building in your sequence, or if prior trades fall behind and you gain a week, you can often adjust cabinet delivery timing with a phone call rather than waiting for the next container ship. This responsiveness matters when you are coordinating multiple buildings or phases across a development.

Capacity at 8,000 units monthly means Cabo can absorb your growth. If you are building 200 units this year and 600 next year, the factory scales with you without forcing you to split orders across multiple suppliers or compromise on consistency.

How It Works

The 30 day production clock starts once your specification is confirmed: box type framed or frameless, delivery method RTA or assembled, door style shaker or slim shaker or slab or thermofoil, finish painted or stained, and hardware specifications. Cabo builds exactly to your spec and ships branded as your own product, your name on every box.

A typical apartment unit runs six to 40 cabinets depending on unit mix: studio, one bedroom, two bedroom layouts. The factory produces kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities, and closet systems. It does not supply countertops, sinks, or other surfaces, so your template and installation sequence remains straightforward.

Land delivery under seven days means trucks from the Mexico factory direct to your US job site. No port congestion, no drayage delays, no container demurrage fees. You receive shipping documentation in advance to coordinate your install crews.

What To Specify For Speed

Aggressive schedules require clean specifications up front. Provide complete unit counts, floor plans with cabinet locations, and door and finish selections before production starts. Changes mid cycle add time. A change order for a different door profile or paint color can reset that unit's production clock.

RTA versus assembled is a schedule consideration. RTA ships in less cube, so more units per truck, but requires field assembly labor. Assembled cabinets go straight to install but fill trucks faster, affecting delivery frequency on large projects. Discuss both with your Cabo contact based on your install crew capabilities and site access.

For multi building developments, sequence your specifications by building delivery date. Cabo can stagger production to match your phased construction schedule rather than flooding your site with all cabinets at once. This approach also manages your cash flow and site storage limitations.

CARB Phase 2 and TSCA Title VI compliance is standard, so no delay for certifications or testing. The factory delivers inspection ready cabinetry that meets US code requirements.
