We Know the Answer "It Depends," Isn't Good Enough
So with the help of one of our extraordinary design assistants, Melissa, we developed this guide to give you an insider's perspective on a typical Karr Bick kitchen design. You will discover the differences in pricing & the design elements you can expect within each of our cabinet lines. We started with a fairly standard sized kitchen (12' x 15') added our "nothing ordinary" design elements (these make your kitchen "Karr Bick" pretty vs. Big Box hardware store cheap) and priced it in each of our lines with the same cabinet style, finish, & color. So you can compare as closely as possible in an "apples to apples" fashion and get a sense for the cost of a Karr Bick kitchen.
Cabinets Made Like Furniture - Inset Cabinetry


Inset Cabinet Kitchen Design
- Kitchen Dimensions - 12'x15' (180 sq ft)
- Cabinets with White Painted Finish Shaker Door & Drawer Styles (see note about painted finishes)
- Stacked Cabinets with 15" Glass Uppers (this is how you get to the top of a tall ceiling without custom doors)
- Tall Cabinets, End Panels, Pantry, & Double Oven Cabinets finish at 108" Tall (because you have 9 1/2 ft ceilings)
- Wainscot sides with integrated cabinets (unless otherwise noted in the manufacturer's tab)
- Wainscot Panels on the Island (unless otherwise noted in the manufacturer's tab)
- Extended Stiles instead of Loose Fillers (unless otherwise noted in the manufacturer's tab)
Designer Notes
- Applied in the Field means the contractor is doing the work to create the look on site which means that your material costs are less and your installation costs are higher.
