Laundry rooms don’t have to be an afterthought. With the right cabinetry, they can be some of the most organized and efficient spaces in the home.
For this project in Fullerton, CA, the homeowners wanted a laundry room that felt clean, modern, and highly functional—something that fit their style and made everyday tasks easier. Caliber Woodcraft designed and built a custom cabinet layout specifically for the way they use the space.
Instead of trying to make stock cabinets work, we started from scratch and created a design that matched their routines, storage needs, and aesthetic preferences.
Designing a Laundry Room That Actually Works
Every home uses a laundry room a little differently. Some people need space for sorting and folding, others want extra storage, and many prefer to tuck away things like detergents, cleaning supplies, and small appliances.
For this Fullerton laundry room, the priorities were:
- Clean, modern lines
- Durable, low-maintenance cabinet faces
- Easy access to storage
- Integration of specific appliances
After walking through the space and talking through the clients’ needs, we designed a custom cabinet layout that made the most of the room’s dimensions while keeping everything simple and functional.
Fenix NTM: Ultra-Matte, Soft-Touch Cabinet Fronts
For the cabinet faces, we used Fenix NTM, a premium material chosen for both look and performance.
Fenix NTM offers:
- Ultra matte finish with extremely low sheen
- A velvety, soft-touch feel
- “Self-healing” surface properties that can help repair minor scratches with the application of heat
- High resistance to fingerprints and everyday wear
This is an excellent choice for a laundry room, where cabinets are opened and closed constantly and surfaces are frequently touched. The ultra-matte finish keeps the space from feeling busy or reflective, and the tactile feel of the material gives the room a quiet, refined character.
The end result is a laundry room that feels calm, modern, and built for real use.
Smart Storage: Roll-Outs and Built-In Appliances
Custom cabinetry really shines when it comes to storage and organization. In this Fullerton project, we integrated features that make everyday tasks easier, including:
Tall Cabinet with Roll-Out Drawers
The tall cabinet was fitted with roll-out drawers, making it much easier to access items stored in the back. Instead of digging through deep shelves, everything slides out into view.
This is ideal for storing:
- Cleaning products
- Extra paper towels
- Laundry supplies
- Small household items
Built-In Microwave Drawer
Per the clients’ request, we incorporated a built-in microwave drawer into the cabinetry. This keeps the countertop clear, maintains clean sightlines, and makes it easier to use the appliance at a comfortable height.
Built-in details like this help the laundry room function more like a small utility hub, not just a place for the washer and dryer.

All cabinetry from Caliber Woodcraft is:
- Custom made to order – no off-the-shelf sizes or one-size-fits-all layouts
