Custom Closets & Built-Ins in Portland, Oregon

Foundry Cabinet Co. builds custom closet systems, built-in shelving, and architectural storage for homes across the Portland metro and Vancouver, WA. Everything is CNC-cut in our own shop and installed by our crew — sized to your exact walls, ceilings, and belongings instead of forced from modular parts.

Closet and built-in projects we take on

• Walk-in closets with drawers, hampers, shoe storage, and islands
• Reach-in closet systems that double usable storage
• Media walls, fireplace surrounds, and living room built-ins
• Home office desks, bookcases, and window seats
• Mudroom lockers, entry benches, and pantry storage
• Laundry room cabinets and utility storage

Custom vs. closet-system franchises

Franchise closet companies assemble the same modular components in every house. As a cabinet shop, we build your closet like furniture: full-height panels scribed to the wall, real drawer boxes on soft-close slides, and any finish — painted, wood-grain laminate, or hardwood. The result fits tighter, holds more, and looks like it was always part of the house, often at a comparable price.

How it works

1. Measure and plan — we inventory what you’re storing and design around it.
2. Drawings and quote — you approve the design and price before we cut.
3. CNC fabrication and finish — parts machined in-house for a precise fit.
4. Installation — most closets install in a day or two.

Closet and built-in FAQs

Do you do single closets, or only whole-house projects?

Both. A single reach-in closet is a perfectly good project for us, and so is a full house of closets, built-ins, and a kitchen.

What materials do you use?

Typically pre-finished plywood or high-grade melamine boxes with your choice of fronts — painted, textured laminate, or hardwood — and quality soft-close hardware throughout.

Can you match existing trim and millwork?

Yes. Matching existing casing, baseboard, and paint or stain is a normal part of built-in work for us — see the coffered ceilings and millwork on our home page.

What areas do you serve?

Portland, Beaverton, Lake Oswego, Hillsboro, Gresham, Happy Valley, and Vancouver, WA — see all areas we serve.
