Design and Installation Process

Jewel Box Cabinetry

Design Process

Pre - Retainer Process 


  • In-Home Consultation 

Schedule a no-cost, in-home consultation with a Jewel Box Cabinetry designer, review your ideas and budget, and get insight from our designer as to the parameters of the preliminary design concept. 

  • Ideas and Cost Estimate 

Meet with your designer and review the preliminary ideas and cost estimates. 

  • Design Proposal 

Approve the Design Proposal so that Jewel Box Cabinetry can immediately start the design for your project, featuring your cabinetry selections. 

 

Installation Process

Post Retrainer Process 


  • Project Binder 

Jewel Box Cabinetry creates a file for your project. 

  • As Built and Conceptual Drawings 

Your designer works with our Engineering Department to deliver the "As Built" and "Conceptual Drawings". 

  • Conceptual Design Meetings 

Conceptual drawings are reviewed and revised over several meetings between you and your designer. Designs are not approved until you are completely satisfied with the concept and price. 

  • Approved Drawings 

Review the final drawings and sign them with red lines for any final revisions. 

  • Field Measure 

Schedule a final job site meeting to remeasure the job site to confirm the designer's measurements. 

  • Client Final Revisions Meeting 

Clients have the opportunity to make revisions after the agreement is signed at this meeting. 

  • Agreement 

Sign the contract and place a deposit as outlined in the agreement. 


Pre-Delivery Walk Through



  • One week prior to delivery, a Project Manager will walk the site to confirm that all the cabinetry will fit as intended and set a delivery time. 

 

Delivery 


  • Our delivery crew will unload and place the cabinetry in the house in the coordinating rooms as per the direction of the Contractor. 
  • After delivery is complete, our crew will walk the job with the Contractor to check that all the cabinetry and related trim is on site and in good condition as per the order. 

 

Installation 


  • Our installation crews will start by installing the base cabinetry, working from the center line toward the walls. 
  • Depending on the type of installation desired, we will either install scribe molding or scribe the cabinetry to the wall. (Scribing the cabinetry to the wall is a cleaner installation practice, but it is more time-consuming, which will cost more.) 
  • Our crews will continue with the upper cabinetry, starting from the center line and moving toward the walls. 
  • The crown molding, light rail, and scribe molding, if necessary, are installed. 
  • Sub tops are installed. 
  • Nail holes are filled along with the cabinet detail. 
  • Set all the shelves, adjust the doors and drawers. 
  • Wipe down the cabinetry. 
  • Inventory all the molding to stay on site until the Final Installation. 

 

Final Touch Up & Detail 

After the flooring is complete and the appliances are installed, our crews will come back to the job site and finish the following: 

 

  • Install the cabinetry baseboards and toe boards that sit on top of the finished floor. 
  • Inspect each door and drawer to ensure they are functioning properly, and adjust them as necessary. 
  • Touch up any surface scratches that have occurred since the last time our crew was on site.
