Handcrafted Heirloom Furniture Built To Last A Lifetime

Custom made items have a story behind them and you’ll want to remember and share that story time and time again. A piece of handcrafted heirloom furniture provides more beautiful storage and display options than ever. When you want more than just a piece of furniture, you want a conversation piece, Danners can create the perfect gift for that “someone special” that they can have for years to come.

Boxes and chests make a perfect gift for someone special, no matter how old or young they are. We know that giving a gift that will last for generations to come is important, which is why our products always feature unique craftsmanship and personalized options.

Wood Is One Material That Will Never Go Out Of Style

  • For the couple that is expecting their first baby, this can be the ideal gift. They will be able to have a personalized gift for their baby that will cherish for many years to come.
  • Baby’s first birthday is a huge milestone and deserves to be celebrated with something special. By the time baby celebrates his/her first birthday, it’s time to find a special place to keep all those toys and books.
  • Our beautiful, crafted pieces also make a special gift for newlywed couples who may be planning to start a family or can use a special trunk in their home to hold keepsake items and gifts.
  • For grandparents who want to create a special look in their home for when their grandchildren come to visit, a special storage space for dolls, games, and stuffed animals is perfect. No home is complete without a chest for toys, and what better place to keep that box than at grandma and grandpa’s house.

Each box can be personalized so you get the exact look that you want. It can be finished, or you may want to leave it unfinished so that you can finish it yourself and add your own personal touch to the final product. No matter what option you choose, you know it will be made of solid wood and will stand up to the wear and tear of daily use.

Quality Heirloom Furniture…one piece at a time!

Gift giving is a timeless tradition, and the most meaningful gifts are personal, useful, and long lasting. With Christmas quickly approaching, there is a way to make purchasing a customized gift even better.

Custom Bunk Beds

Looking for that perfect, impossible-to-find cocktail table?  That nightstand that just has to match the bed?

Maple TV Tray with casters

A custom piece of bedroom furniture?  Maybe something as useful as a custom television tray with casters.  Faced with a challenging interior that demands special sizes and materials?

Sometimes you simply can’t find what you want in the local furniture design showrooms.  You may require new custom furniture designs to blend with existing furnishings, or have requirements for specific sizes, materials or both.  You may have limited space and need custom storage solutions that no other can give. You might simply desire a superior product than what is offered locally, or want something that is truly original.

Think about a custom made-to-order – client-specific piece of furniture handcrafted the old-fashioned way. Handcrafted heirloom furniture provides more beautiful storage and display options than ever.  It is the perfect way to give an heirloom gift that is sure to last a lifetime.

Kitchen Cabinet Storage Is Key

October 28, 2010

Too Much Stuff and Too Few Cabinets?

When designing your dream kitchen it is key to consider your storage space, along with ample countertop space.  Kitchen cabinet layout services are available to help you maximize your space and create the best flow of cabinetry.  The first place to look for extra storage space is your corners.  In small tight kitchens, a blind corner cabinet can be used to get the most use out of the corner.  However, to get the most efficient use of the corner space a lazy Susan corner cabinet or easy reach cabinet should be used.

These cabinet options maximize the corner space while allowing easy entry to it contents.  Or try adding rollout trays in your base kitchen cabinets to help access your pots and pans, or in your pantries in order to reach cans and dry goods more easily.  Another suggestion would be to include a 24” deep bridge cabinet in your kitchen cabinet layout above your refrigerator.  Most people keep unused or seasonal items above the refrigerator for the simple fact that they can’t reach the cabinet.  Therefore, consider a 24” deep refrigerator cabinet for easier access.

Remember, your kitchen is the heart of your home!  Success in constructing is designing a comfortable space, and creating a balance between an efficient layout and design with your personal tastes, while keeping with the end goal of adding value to your home.

Selecting Hinges For Custom Cabinets & Kitchen Cabinets

October 21, 2010

Quality Cabinet Hinges Minnesota | Custom Cabinets Hardware

The final step in designing your new custom cabinets or kitchen cabinets is the selection of cabinet hinges and cabinet hardware.  The incredible selection of cabinet hinge styles and finishes available will put the perfect finishing touch on your new custom cabinets or kitchen cabinets.

Cabinet Hinges

The Wide Variety of Custom Cabinet Hinges and Cabinet Hardware

From overlay hinges, inset hinges, concealed hinges, and double demountable hinges to variable overlay hinges, reverse bevel hinges and continuous piano hinges – we have them all and more, in styles and finishes guaranteed to compliment the design and décor of your new custom cabinets.

The Cabinet Hinge Selection Process Narrows

With such a wide and varied selection of cabinet hinges for custom cabinets and kitchen cabinets, the process might at first, seem a bit overwhelming.  However, at this point you have already selected a cabinet frame and cabinet doors for your custom cabinets or kitchen cabinets and that helps focus the cabinet hinges selection process.

1. Frameless Custom Cabinets and Kitchen Cabinets do not have a frame, so the doors must be attached directly to the cabinet box. This requires you to select doors that match the cabinet box, and the doors you select will determine the types and styles of hinges you have to choose from.

  • Full Overlay Doors cover the cabinet box completely and need a hinge that is concealed or hidden, such as a European hinge.
  • Half Overlay Doors do not totally cover the edge of the cabinet box and usually call for a European Overlay hinge.
  • Inset Doors are mounted inside the cabinet box and flush with the edge. This style of door can use a European hinge.

2. Face-Frame Custom Cabinets and Kitchen Cabinets have a frame on the cabinet box and the door must be attached to that frame.

  • Overlay Doors can cover this frame completely or partially, whichever you prefer, and allow you to choose a European Overlay hinge, Knuckle hinge, or Knife hinge, depending on how much of the frame the door covers.
  • 3/8” Inset Doors partially cover the frame and have a small recess cut into the end of the cabinet doors which creates a type of joint with the edge of the cabinet frame and calls us a specific type of hinge.
  • Flush Doors are just that – flush with the surface of the frame. Flush Doors permit the use of an H-style hinge, a Butterfly hinge, or a semi wraparound hinge.

Whatever your custom cabinet or kitchen cabinet needs or preferences might be, a skilled and professional cabinetmaker  can design, build and install it to your exact specifications.

Custom Cabinetry Is The Only Way To Go

When It Comes To Cabinets, You Get What You Pay For

The bathroom is all too often a room in the house that is neglected.  Bathroom cabinets are one of the most difficult pieces to find that will satisfy the needs of an average household.  You usually have something far different in mind than your hum-drum cupboards.  By looking in the local showrooms, it is not usually something that is even available in the size needed, and the finish that would work with your décor.  In addition to that, your common construction available today when it comes to cabinetry is unacceptable for any purpose what so ever!  The kitchen or bathroom particleboard stuff is such poor quality; they will not stand up to the harsh uses of most homes.  They are simply not designed or constructed to withstand bathroom or kitchen humidity, steam, or rigorous use.  Of course, they cost less, but they do not last.  A stock cabinet probably will not fit, even if there available.

Custom cabinetry is the only way to go.  You will get the exact size, finish, and design you want.  Custom Cabinets are made to your exact specifications.  The great thing about custom cabinetry these days is that you can get such ultra-cool stuff!  They allow you to tie everything together with the décor in your home and they will certainly outlast anything you could find at your local showroom.  Bathroom remodeling is expensive, and furniture like a vanity cabinet must be of top quality in order for it last the lifetime of the remodel.  Forget about mass produced cabinets.

Remember, you get what you pay for!
