Why We Love Hickory Cabinets

Our team loves hickory cabinets, and so do several homeowners across the country. Hickory is the second-hardest wood boasting a long lifespan and exceptional durability. It is also cost-effective and can be used for different types of furniture, tools and more. 

Hickory cabinets have plenty to offer as kitchen cabinets. The Kitchen Store, a dependable kitchen contractor in the area, shares why our experts recommend hickory cabinets.

Exceptional Strength

Hickory is one of the strongest woods that you can use for cabinets. It can be sheared, strained and stressed with minimal issues, allowing manufacturers to shape them into various products. The toughness of hickory gives it exceptional shock resistance and flexibility when steamed. 

Beautiful Aesthetics

Design-wise, hickory has a coarse, straight grain that works well with most kitchen interiors. Its natural stains and patterns occur due to hickory’s sapwood and hardwood. Several manufacturers can produce hickory cabinets in various colors because they’re easy to sand and finish.

Hickory cabinets give a cozy, homey vibe. They work well with classic, modern and transitional kitchen designs. Hickory’s natural stain gives it a beautiful look, even if you don’t stain and finish it.

Easy Maintenance

Hickory kitchen cabinets can be repaired and restored. Kitchen remodelers can sand, stain and replace their rusted hinges and latches to look and work like the cabinets are brand new. You can easily clean hickory cabinets with water, non-abrasive cleaning soap, and a sponge.

Quick Assembly

If you want to save time assembling your kitchen cabinet, ready-to-assemble hickory cabinets are available on the market. These pre-made cabinets can be installed in various ways due to the different styles and layouts. Just make sure your designer accurately measures your cabinet openings for proper installation.
