How kitchen cabinets are priced in Malaysia
Custom kitchen cabinets are priced per running foot of cabinet length. You measure the length of the run (in feet), then multiply by the rate for the cabinet type. Bottom (base) and top (wall) cabinets are priced separately, and a stone countertop is added on top.
Kitchen cabinet price per foot (2026 floor rates)
| Cabinet type | Price per foot (from) |
|---|---|
| Bottom / base cabinet (600mm, incl. basic laminate top) | RM450 / ft |
| Top / wall cabinet (300mm) | RM225 / ft |
| Full kitchen (top + bottom) | RM675 / ft |
| Quartz / stone countertop (add-on) | + RM250 / ft |
Worked example: a 10-foot kitchen
A typical 10-foot kitchen with both top and bottom cabinets: 10 ft × RM675 = RM6,750 as a starting (floor) price, with most builds landing in the RM6,750–RM9,500 range depending on materials, finishes and accessories. Adding a quartz countertop is roughly +RM2,500 (10 ft × RM250). Every price includes delivery and professional installation.
What pushes the price up
- Premium laminate (woodgrain, marble-look, metallic) and quartz or sintered-stone tops
- Soft-close hinges and drawers, tandembox drawers, magic corners, lift-up systems (Blum / Hafele)
- Taller or deeper units, glass doors, integrated lighting, and complex layouts
The board changes the price too. These rates are for plywood. Chipboard costs less and is available on request for dry cabinets; our melamine vs plywood vs blockboard guide explains where each board lasts.
