THE CLIFTON PROCESS
From first idea to final detail.
Cabinetry planning should feel manageable. Whether you need design guidance, a second look at your plans, or materials ready to order, we’ll help you understand your next step.
Start where you are.
I need design & project guidance · I have plans and need a quote · I’m ready to shop
The steps below describe a guided cabinetry project. Online purchases follow the product and checkout details; you don’t need a design consultation to shop.
01 / Tell us about your project
Share the rooms you’re working on, your location, priorities, budget range, and ideal timing. A few photos or an idea are enough to begin. Plans and measurements are welcome if you have them.
Your next step: Send an inquiry. We’ll help identify the right level of support.
02 / Shape the design & selections
We work through layout, storage, cabinetry, finishes, and fixtures with you. If you already have a design, we review the plans and product selections for the quote. Bring appliance specifications and any details your builder or installer has confirmed.
Your decision: Choose the direction that fits your space, style, and investment.
03 / Review your quote
Review the proposed products, quantities, services, and pricing. We’ll clarify what is included and what is separate, including delivery and installation arrangements. Ask questions and resolve changes before approving the order.
Before moving forward: Confirm the scope, payment terms, and current lead-time estimate in your proposal.
04 / Confirm the details & approve
Finalize dimensions, appliance clearances, finishes, hardware, and delivery information. We’ll confirm who is responsible for final measurements and any site visit included in your scope. Your approved selections and order documents guide what is ordered.
Important: Changes after approval may affect price, availability, and timing. Check with us before changing your plans.
05 / Prepare for delivery or installation
We coordinate the agreed supply and delivery arrangements. Confirm access, unloading responsibilities, and a dry, secure storage area before delivery. If installation is included, we’ll review site readiness and scheduling with you.
Nationwide supply. Local support. We ship nationwide. Installation availability and scope are confirmed for each project; shipping does not automatically include installation.
06 / Review, settle in & stay in touch
Check the shipment against your order and promptly document visible damage or missing items. Contact us so we can explain the next steps. For projects with installation, review any remaining items with the team. Keep your order information for care, warranty questions, and future additions.
A few things you may be wondering
Do I need finished plans?
No. Start with what you have. For a detailed quote, we may need dimensions, selections, and appliance specifications.
How long will it take?
Timing depends on the manufacturer, selections, availability, shipping, and project readiness. We’ll discuss current estimates with your quote; confirm timing before booking other trades.
Can I use my own builder or installer?
Yes. Tell us who is handling measurements and installation so responsibilities are clear.
What if I need a general contractor?
For a broader construction or remodeling project, contact Nix Industries to discuss scope and service availability.
