Systems for Cabinet Makers
Cabinetry companies bring in revenue through high-touch design consultations, custom fabrication, and meticulous installation. The costliest gaps tend to show up during the gap between field measurements and final shop drawings, or when change orders are not documented and billed before the build begins.

How the business actually works
Inquiry
Capture lead details regarding project scope, room type, and desired materials.
Site Visit
Schedule field measurements and photograph the existing footprint and plumbing locations.
Design Review
Present shop drawings and material samples for formal client sign off.
Fabrication
Coordinate the build phase, tracking carcass assembly and door face production.
Finishing
Manage the booth schedule for staining, painting, or lacquering components.
Installation
Execute the delivery and onsite assembly, ensuring perfect leveling and scribe work.
Punch List
Address final hardware adjustments and minor touchups to close the project.
Where it leaks
Discrepancies between initial rough estimates and final field measurements lead to costly site modifications. Automation ensures that no fabrication begins until a verified measurement checklist is completed and uploaded.
Clients often request hardware or layout changes mid-build that never make it to the final invoice. A systematic approval process captures these costs instantly, preventing margin erosion in the woodshop.
Backlogs in the finishing booth often stall the entire production line. Centralized scheduling allows for better coordination between the assembly bench and the spray technician.
Forgetting specialty pulls or soft-close hinges can delay a project by weeks during the final install. Automated procurement lists ensure every hinge and slide is ordered at the moment of design approval.
Arriving at a job site only to find the flooring or plumbing isn't ready wastes a full day of labor. Automated reminders to general contractors or homeowners verify site readiness before the truck is loaded.
What LATTICE can build
Provide clients with a secure link to review 3D renderings and shop drawings, requiring a digital signature before production starts.
Automatically send invoices at key milestones, such as wood delivery, completion of assembly, and final installation.
Ensure architects and contractors can reach you immediately with a text response when you are in the shop or on a loud job site.
Send automated updates to clients when their slabs or hardwoods have arrived and are entering the fabrication phase.
Automate the collection of signed waivers and final site photos for your portfolio once the punch list is signed off.
Allow installers to upload photos of completed adjustments directly from the field to trigger the final billing cycle.
Example systems
Tell us what's slowing the business down. LATTICE can build around the way your business operates.
The system allows you to set specific lead time buffers for various materials. When a project is booked, the procurement tasks are dated backward from the desired install date to ensure items like custom hinges or exotic veneers arrive before fabrication begins.
Yes. The platform distinguishes between one-off retail clients and professional partners. Contractors can have a different communication cadence and payment terms compared to a standard residential kitchen remodel.
Installers access the client portal on their tablets to view the exact shop drawings, hardware specs, and site notes recorded during the measurement phase. They can upload photos of the finished scribe work to confirm the job is done to standard.
You can shift the entire project timeline in the dashboard, which automatically updates all related tasks and notifies the client of the new delivery date. This keeps your shop schedule accurate without manual re-entry.
Once the punch list is marked as complete, the system triggers a request to the client or the builder to schedule a photography session. It can also include a request for a review while the client is most excited about their new space.
