Frequently Asked Questions
Tierra Verde Cabinetry Questions
Can MDI coordinate cabinetry throughout a Tierra Verde residence?
Yes. MDI can coordinate kitchen cabinetry, bars, bathroom vanities, closets, laundry storage, offices, media built-ins, and architectural millwork using a controlled material and proportion strategy.
What should be resolved before ordering high-end custom cabinetry?
Confirm final dimensions, appliances, utilities, ventilation, storage needs, clearances, door and drawer operation, materials, samples, hardware, stone, lighting, transitions, delivery access, and installation responsibility.
Do coastal interiors automatically require marine-grade cabinets?
No. Conditioned indoor cabinetry and directly weather-exposed cabinetry are different applications. Outdoor kitchens and exposed bars require separate exterior specifications.
Can I order RTA cabinets for a Tierra Verde project?
Yes, when an available collection fits the room, design, and component requirements. Every cabinet, panel, skin, filler, molding, accessory, and finished end should be verified before ordering.
Does MDI provide installation?
MDI Luxury Cabinetry provides cabinet planning and supply. Installation may be handled by the customer, a chosen qualified contractor, or coordinated separately through MDI Custom Homes when appropriate for the project and service area.
Plan Your Tierra Verde Cabinetry and Millwork
Tell MDI which rooms are involved, how the residence is used, which appliances and fixtures are selected, what needs to be stored, and whether the scope includes custom cabinetry, coordinated millwork, or qualifying cabinet collections.
