Custom kitchen cabinets & built-in wardrobes, made in our own workshop

Custom carpentry is our specialty at The M Renovation. Unlike contractors who outsource their joinery, we fabricate every piece in-house from quality plywood, made to measure for your home in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor. Made-to-measure means your storage fits your space exactly, with no awkward gaps or off-the-shelf compromises.

Custom kitchen cabinets

A kitchen cabinet should fit your kitchen, not the other way around. We design and build custom kitchen cabinets in plywood: top units, bottom units, tall units, islands and tailored pull-outs, finished in your choice of laminate, melamine, 4G acrylic or solid-surface tops. Because we build in moisture-resistant plywood rather than particleboard, your cabinets hold screws better and stand up to Malaysia’s humidity and the occasional wet kitchen floor. We can match almost any kitchen cabinet design, from clean modern handleless looks to classic shaker fronts.

Built-in wardrobes

Sliding or hinged, floor-to-ceiling or walk-in. We build built-in wardrobes around your room and your storage habits, with internal layouts of hanging, shelving, drawers and accessory rails configured to suit you.

TV consoles, feature walls & wall partitions

Beyond cabinets and wardrobes, we craft TV consoles, media feature walls, display units, study tables, shoe cabinets and timber wall partitions, all in the same workshop and to the same standard.

Why plywood, not particleboard or aluminium

Plywood is stronger, holds fixings far better and resists moisture damage far longer than the particleboard used in cheap flat-pack furniture. Compared with aluminium cabinets it gives a warmer, more bespoke finish and far more design freedom. We use the right grade of plywood for each application, which is why our carpentry is built to last, not to replace in a few years.

Our process

Measure and consult → design and material selection → fabrication in our workshop → on-site installation and finishing. You deal with the people who actually build your furniture, start to finish. See our cabinet and wardrobe projects for examples, or read about our full renovation services if you are doing a complete kitchen or home.

How much does a custom kitchen cabinet cost?

Custom cabinets are usually priced per running foot. As a rough guide, plywood kitchen cabinets in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor typically range from around RM 280 to RM 600+ per running foot, so a standard kitchen often falls between RM 12,000 and RM 25,000.
