Kitchen Cabinets in Riverton, CT
Riverton is the village at the forks of the Farmington in the north of Barkhamsted, and it is the place where Lambert Hitchcock started making painted and stencilled chairs in the 1820s. The factory building, the inn and the church still stand around the same small crossroads.
Kitchen cabinets Riverton CT residents need belong mostly to village and near-village housing: houses raised between the 1820s and the 1920s for people working at the chair works, together with farmhouses on the surrounding hills and a limited amount of later building.
Hitchcock's operation is worth knowing about if you care what goes into your cabinetry. He was making furniture in volume, to a consistent pattern, with a finish that was part of the design rather than an afterthought — which is more or less what a good semi-custom cabinet line does today, two centuries later.
The houses themselves present the usual early-village difficulty, and it is rarely the walls. It is the floor. Two centuries of settlement mean a kitchen can drop an inch and a half from one end to the other, which becomes obvious the moment a level worktop meets a sloping floor at a tall unit. Those readings get taken at survey and the scribes get planned into the design.

Riverton Questions
Do you deliver and install in Riverton?
Yes. We supply kitchen cabinets Riverton CT and install with our own team, backed by a 5-year limited warranty. Riverton is about 40 minutes from the showroom, comfortably inside our service area.
Which showroom should I visit?
Waterbury is the closer showroom at around forty minutes by Route 8 and Route 20. It is a proper drive, so we do as much as possible at the in-home visit and keep the showroom trip to the one that matters.
Can you match a painted finish to existing furniture?
Usually close, and we will say honestly how close. We take a reading on site and specify against it, but a two-hundred-year-old finish has a depth that a modern one approaches rather than copies, and we would rather tell you that first.
Can you work with my contractor?
Yes. A large share of our work comes through contractors, remodelers and designers, and we are used to supplying inside a scope someone else is running.
