Semi-custom cabinetry — often called RTA, or ready-to-assemble — sits right between stock cabinets you buy off the shelf and fully custom work built from scratch. You choose from pre-engineered sizes and configure the layout, finish, and hardware; the cabinets ship flat and go in fast. At Incanto, our Semi-Custom line installs in as little as 10 days. Here’s the straight answer on what it is — and what it isn’t.

| Stock | Semi-Custom | Custom | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sizing | Fixed, off the shelf | Pre-engineered, configurable | Built to your exact space |
| Options | Limited | Wide (finishes, hardware, layout) | Unlimited |
| Timeline | Immediate | As little as 10 days | 8–12+ weeks |
| Price | Lowest | Mid — strong value | Highest |
This is the biggest misconception. Ready-to-assemble refers to how the cabinet ships — flat, then assembled and installed on site — not how it’s built. Our Semi-Custom line uses the same furniture-grade, all-plywood boxes, solid wood faces, and soft-close hardware as our custom work. It ships smarter, not cheaper in quality.

Because pre-engineered sizes don’t wait on a from-scratch build, Semi-Custom can be installed in as little as 10 days. For a renovation on a deadline — or a home you actually want to cook in this month — that speed is the whole point.
Is RTA the same as semi-custom?
Yes — RTA (ready-to-assemble) is the industry term; at Incanto we call our line Semi-Custom. Same idea: pre-engineered cabinets you configure, delivered fast.
Is semi-custom lower quality than custom?
No. Quality comes from materials and construction. Our Semi-Custom line uses furniture-grade boxes and soft-close hardware, just like our custom work.
How fast can semi-custom be installed?
As little as 10 days, depending on the scope of your project.
Can I still choose the finish?
Yes — 10 finishes, plus door style and hardware options.
