Serving Plant City and nearby communities.

Doors slamming or drawers not closing right? Hardware and soft-close upgrades swap out knobs, pulls, hinges, and drawer slides without touching the doors or boxes themselves. This is a common add-on when refacing older cabinets that never had soft-close originally. It also works fine as its own standalone project if your doors and finish are otherwise fine.

Plant City Cabinet Refacing fits soft-close mechanisms to your existing cabinet frames, matched to door weight and size.

How much does hardware and soft-close upgrades cost?

A full kitchen typically runs $800–$2,200 depending on hardware style and how many doors and drawers are included.

How long does a hardware upgrade take?
