Direct Answer
Yes. Cabo Cabinet Group works directly from architectural drawings and specifications. We manufacture kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities and closet systems to your exact spec, whether that comes from an architect's construction documents, your internal shop drawings, or a detailed scope sheet. Our engineering team reviews the drawings, confirms dimensions and elevations, clarifies any conflicts or questions, and then builds precisely to what you specified. This is standard practice for the 8,000 apartment units of cabinetry we produce each month.
Why It Matters
Working from architectural drawings means you control the design and Cabo controls the manufacturing. You are not adapting your project to a catalog. You specify the box construction, framed or frameless. You specify the finish, painted or stained shaker, slim shaker, slab or thermofoil. You specify the hardware, soft close hinges and drawer glides standard. The cabinets ship branded as your own, your name on every box, because they are built to your drawings and your standards.
For developers and builders working on multifamily projects, this process ensures consistency across dozens or hundreds of units. The architect's intent becomes the manufacturing spec. When unit 101 and unit 501 have the same floor plan, they get the same cabinets, built to the same elevations, every time. That consistency matters for install crews, for timelines, and for the final walkthrough.
How It Works
The process starts when you send the architectural drawings or your interpreted scope. Cabo's engineering team reviews them for manufacturability. We check dimensions, note any field conditions that might affect cabinet size, and flag anything that needs clarification. Are the ceiling heights consistent? Do the mechanical chases affect upper cabinet depth? Is there a window condition that changes the run?
Once the spec is confirmed, production takes about 30 days in our 700,000 square foot factory in Mexico. Then under 7 days delivery by land to the US job site. Total timeline from confirmed drawings to cabinets on site is roughly five weeks. Compare that to Asia, which adds 45 to 90 days of ocean transit to the same manufacturing window.
We build in volume. A typical order runs 6 to 40 cabinets per unit. Our capacity is around 200 shipping containers a month. That scale supports the engineering resources to work from architectural documents and turn them into cut lists, boring schedules, and finished goods that meet CARB Phase 2 and TSCA Title VI compliance without you managing those details.
What to Send
Send floor plans with cabinet locations and dimensions. Send elevations showing upper and lower cabinet heights, depths, and any special conditions like appliance garages, lazy susans, or pantry pullouts. Include finish schedules that specify door style, color or stain, and any hardware preferences beyond our soft close standard. The more specific the drawings, the faster the engineering review.
If you have shop drawings already, send those. If you have the architect's construction documents and prefer Cabo to interpret them, we do that too. For National Accounts clients, the highest volume buyers in our partnership program, we often work directly with the architectural team to make sure the design is optimized for manufacturing and install efficiency before the spec is locked.
You are specifying a pure cabinet and vanity manufacturer. We do not supply countertops, sinks, or other surfaces, so your drawings should call those out separately. What we do is build the boxes and doors exactly as drawn, ship them exactly on schedule, and support the install with the consistency that only a 700,000 square foot factory can deliver.
