Family owned for more than a quarter century, Kitchen Creations of West Yarmouth custom designs and builds all its cabinetry in house. Customers are invited to tour the company’s warehouse to view designers and builders in action as they put together attractive cabinetry from start to finish. “This is what sells us,” says Mike Devoe, one of the company’s designers. “Guys love tools, so there’s a real wow factor when they see the shop.”

On the tour, one can view a computer screen showing blueprint images, which are then sent to a cutting table where the wood for the cabinets awaits. After the wood is cut, a machine fits strips of siding onto the trimmed pieces, which are sent to the paint room where catalyzed paint is sprayed on with industrial precision. “Everyone who works here is an expert at what they do,” says Devoe.

Kitchen Creations’ best-selling cabinets come with Shaker doors or modified Shaker doors, in shades of white. The staff uses paint-grade wood, which is free of heavy grain patterns and therefore accepts the paint easily. Maple is used for a majority of the cabinetry, though additional woods such as cherry, black walnut, and pine are also used. The cabinetry offers full-extension, soft-close drawers, with solid wood dovetail joints.

Kitchen Creations also sells granite and quartz countertops, and the company has access to countless fixture brands and styles. Devoe and shop foreman Philip Harron work with customers to choose the perfect styles for their kitchens.
