Build Cabinets Faster with Accurate Parts Lists, Cut Sheets, and 2D Drawings

Go from rough dimensions to a complete parts list, printable cut sheet, and 2D project render — no CAD, no learning curve.

How CabinetPlans.io Works

Start with Rough Dimensions

Choose from popular face frame or frameless cabinet styles. Enter your cabinet’s rough width, height, and depth. Select your construction method — dados and grooves or simple butt joints like pocket screws. Add optional details like beaded face frames or baseboard molding. Include as many cabinets as your project requires.

Parts List and 2D Drawing

Once your cabinet is configured, a complete parts list is generated instantly — with dimensions based on the construction method you choose. Hardware like drawer runners and door hinges are included automatically. Combine multiple cabinets into a clean 2D drawing you can share with clients or use for reference in the shop.

Frequently Asked Questions

When I use CabinetPlans.io do I get a step-by-step set of plans and instructions to build my cabinets?

No. You get a parts list and cutsheets for your cabinets, which is the hardest part of cabinet design. CabinetPlans.io assumes you understand basic cabinet design and construction and you should be able to build a cabinet from that parts list. When you design and build your cabinets in CabinetPlans.io you specify exactly how you'd like to build it, whether you want to use pocket screws or grooves and dados.

I know how to build cabinets. What's the advantage of using CabinetPlans.io compared to other cabinet software or just coming up with my own parts list?

Speed, cost, and ease of use. CabinetPlans.io is considerably easier to use than all existing cabinet design software with nearly no learning curve. As for coming up with your own parts list, CabinetPlans.io makes changing dimensions or build criteria nearly instant. Let's suppose you design a 30" wide, two-door, one-drawer, faceframe cabinet with overlay doors. Using your own math, come up with a parts list for that cabinet using pocket screw construction and time yourself how long that takes. Now change the cabinet to inset doors. Now change it to 33" wide. In the time it takes you to read this, CabinetPlans.io can give you a list of all the dimensioned parts and can instantly recalculate those parts for inset and the width changes.

I don't know how to design or build my own kitchen cabinets or built-ins, but I have a rough idea. Can I still use CabinetPlans.io or should I learn cabinet building techniques first?

CabinetPlans.io is designed to be easy enough to use for novice cabinet builders, but powerful enough to provide all the features that seasoned custom cabinet builders use. All CabinetPlans.io subscriptions include access to a comprehensive video-based cabinet building course that teaches you everything you need to know to design and build your own custom cabinets and built-ins. This course used to sell for $300 on its own, but it's included even in the $9 per month plan. The first four lessons are free to all registered users even those without a subscription if you'd like to try it out.

Does CabinetPlans.io support face frame and frameless cabinets?

Yes. CabinetPlans.io now has options for building both traditional face frame and frameless cabinets.

Does CabinetPlans.io offer imperial (standard) or metric units in its cabinet builds?

Both. CabinetPlans.io allows cabinet builds in both inches and mm.

Do I have to purchase a subscription to use CabinetPlans.io?

No. You can build one cabinet and generate parts lists for it for free.  Additional projects and cabinets as well as full access to the comprehensive cabinet building training course require a subscription.  When you signup, you also have a free 3-day trial that allows you to generate those cutsheets at no cost.

Do I need to download or install software to use CabinetPlans.io?

Nope. CabinetPlans.io runs 100% from the web so you can use it on your computer, iPad, or phone without having to download or install any software.

How does CabinetPlans.io compare to other cabinet planning software?

CabinetPlans.io is designed to be fast and easy — there’s virtually no learning curve. Unlike complex CAD tools, there’s no need to draw or model in 3D. You simply enter cabinet dimensions, choose your build details, and instantly get a parts list, cut sheets, and a clean 2D project drawing. It’s built for speed, simplicity, and accuracy — and it costs a fraction of what traditional cabinet software does.
