Business Details
We are Cabinets 2000, a family-run European-style cabinet manufacturer founded in 1989 and based in Southern California. Our operational history spans more than three decades, during which we have built a reputation for exceptional craftsmanship and industry innovation. In 1998, we relocated to our current 100,000+ square foot manufacturing facility to support growing demand for our custom cabinetry solutions. We established our in-house door manufacturing department in 1999 to streamline production and maintain consistent quality across all product lines. In 2003, we installed our first automated flat-line finishing system and pioneered the use of water-based stains and UV-clear topcoats to enhance product durability and reduce environmental impact. We navigated the 2007-2010 Great Recession by focusing on our core manufacturing competencies, streamlining internal processes, and expanding our comprehensive cabinet library. We added a second automated flat-line finishing system in 2014 to support the development of high-quality pigmented finishes for diverse client design preferences.
Our founding family reacquired the company in 2023 after a period of private equity ownership, recommitting to our legacy as an industry leader and innovator. We launched an Employee Stock Ownership Program (ESOP) in 2024 to empower our team members to take shared ownership in the success of our business. Our fully vertically integrated production facility is equipped with cutting-edge woodworking machinery, allowing us to process every order from raw materials entirely in-house. We maintain an extensive cabinet library with more than 5,000 SKUs to support flexible design options while preserving manufacturing efficiency for every project. We prioritize environmentally sustainable practices, including the use of UV topcoats, water-based stains, acrylics, textured thermofused laminates, and engineered veneers that align with modern interior design trends.

Very poor customer service. I would call and Carla cannot provide any feedback on my requests. She will always say that she will call the manager but always cannot reach the manager. Carla always say that the technician or manager did not put any updates in the system. When she promise to call, she never calls back even 2 weeks after. I always have to follow up. Schedules are not fulfilled as promised. One time I waited all day and no one came.

We had an issue with our Lennar home and these cabinets. The builder used them and the warranty is only a "year". Most cabinets warranties are 5 to 20 tears. We have issues with some of the cabinets hanging/ drooping and not lining up again. This happened well before our 1 year warranty, and we had the builder correct it for us. Now its been 4 years and we are having the same issues all over again.
I contacted Cabinets 2000 and sent them photos of the cabinets I have issues with. Some cabinets we don't even use or can reach on a daily basis have these issues. We take pride in taking care of our home. Want to know what the VP of the company said? "Wear and Tear" and they weren't going to do anything to help with making adjustments. Wonder why? I know why. It's because their cabinets are made poorly, are poorly installed and they don't want to warranty anything longer than a year because then they would be out of money due to replacing/ fixing them all the time. Don't go with this cabinet company if you are looking for good quality cabinets and quality customer service.

Just bought a brand new condo in San Diego. The cabinets are worst quality I've ever seen. Cabinet bodies are 1/2" thick, with horrible vinyl cladding, not even melamine. Even ikea cabinets use 3/4" melamine. Hinge base plates positioned in wrong shelf pin holes on all cabinets, then repositioned, leaving two holes blown out in every wall cabinet. Cabinet panels are visibly cracked, they install them anyway, into a brand new condo.
Cheap miterfolded drawer boxes are out of square and drawer fronts are badly misaligned. I've seen all grades of casework in my 30 year career in construction, this is by far the absolute worst. TriPac cabinets I installed in HUD housing projects was better!
