Wilshire Cabinet + CO is a full-service cabinet and countertop design-build firm serving Oklahoma City homeowners undertaking kitchen and bathroom renovations, with in-house fabrication and installation capability rather than reliance on factory orders or third-party contractors.
The business operates as a design consultation and manufacturing operation combined. Rather than selling pre-made stock cabinets, Wilshire designs custom layouts, sources or fabricates cabinetry and countertops to specification, and manages installation. This model differs fundamentally from big-box kitchen retailers or general contractors who outsource cabinet work. The company works on residential projects ranging from single-bathroom vanities to full kitchen overhauls, typically serving homeowners in the $30,000 to $150,000+ renovation budget range.
Wilshire's core services break into three phases: design consultation, material selection and fabrication, and installation. An initial design consultation typically costs $500 to $1,500 depending on project scope and square footage; this fee is often credited toward the final order if the client moves forward. Cabinet pricing varies sharply by material and finish. Semi-custom options using plywood boxes with painted or stained finishes run $150 to $300 per linear foot of cabinetry. Full-custom solid wood or specialty veneer builds start at $250 per linear foot and exceed $400 for premium woods and finishes. Countertop pricing depends on material: laminate or budget quartz runs $50 to $80 per square foot installed, mid-range quartz or granite averages $100 to $150 per square foot, and high-end natural stone or specialty finishes reach $200+ per square foot. Installation fees are quoted per project after design completion and typically represent 15 to 25 percent of the total material cost. Confirm current pricing by phone as material costs and lead times shift quarterly.
The local kitchen and bath market fragments into three tiers. Big-box retailers like Lowe's and Home Depot offer builder-grade stock cabinets at $80 to $150 per linear foot but limited design input and contractor-dependent installation quality. Mid-market semi-custom firms like Mullet Cabinet or Karman Kitchens (serving the metro area) charge $120 to $250 per linear foot and provide design services but typically work from a limited set of door styles and finishes. Wilshire occupies the premium-custom tier alongside a handful of independent designers and fabricators; choosing Wilshire over a big-box option makes sense if you want design iteration, material authenticity, or built-in matching vanities and trim work as part of one coordinated project. Choosing Wilshire over a mid-market semi-custom firm depends on whether you need full creative freedom in finishes and layout or are satisfied with existing design templates.
Wilshire is the right choice for homeowners planning a kitchen or bathroom renovation where design custom-fit matters more than speed or budget minimization, particularly those uncomfortable delegating cabinet design to a general contractor or retail designer. Projects with unusual wall dimensions, mixed-material specifications (custom cabinetry paired with a specific stone countertop or tile backsplash), or high-visibility finishes reward the hands-on design input Wilshire provides. The firm is less suitable for homeowners on a tight timeline (semi-custom or stock options deliver faster) or those with hard budget caps under $25,000 on kitchen cabinetry alone, since premium custom work carries premium labor and material costs.
Initial contact typically occurs via phone or the company's website inquiry form. Wilshire will schedule a design consultation at your home or at their showroom to assess the space, discuss aesthetic goals, and understand functional needs (storage, appliance placement, workflow). Bring photos of styles you like, measurements if you have them, and a rough budget. The designer will sketch layout options, discuss material samples, and outline the timeline and process. Expect this meeting to last 60 to 90 minutes. Following the consultation, Wilshire produces detailed drawings and a preliminary estimate; revisions are standard before the contract is signed.
Wilshire Cabinet + CO operates Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., with Saturday appointments available by request. The showroom is located in central Oklahoma City and includes sample doors, finishes, and countertop materials on display. Street and lot parking are available. Installation typically occurs after materials are fabricated (4 to 8 weeks from order, depending on backlog and complexity) and takes 3 to 7 days for a full kitchen. Verify current lead times when requesting a quote, as they fluctuate with seasonal demand.
Wilshire Cabinet + CO serves Oklahoma City homeowners who prioritize design quality and material control in kitchen and bathroom projects over commodity-pricing and off-the-shelf solutions.
