Process

1. What types of cabinets and building materials does DCM provide?
Detroit Cabinet Manufacturing offers one of the most comprehensive product ranges in the industry. Our catalog includes Ready-to-Assemble (RTA) and fully assembled kitchen and bath cabinets, vanities, countertops, millwork, flooring, lighting, plumbing fixtures, and appliances — all available at factory-direct pricing. Each cabinet is built with solid plywood boxes, soft-close hardware, and premium finishes to ensure durability, functionality, and design flexibility. We proudly feature Michigan-made products to support local craftsmanship and reduce supply chain delays.
2. How does the Total Supply Concept help lower project costs?
Our Total Supply Concept (TSC) revolutionizes the traditional material procurement process. Instead of purchasing through multiple distributors, DCM acts as your direct purchasing and logistics partner, sourcing materials straight from certified manufacturers. This streamlined approach eliminates redundant markups, reduces project risk, and ensures 10–15% overall cost savings. For example, a $5 million housing project can save over $375,000 using the TSC model all while maintaining quality and compliance. With DCM, you get a single-source solution — from quote to order, shipment, and tracking — with full project transparency.
3. Does DCM offer eco-friendly or affordable housing solutions?
Yes. Detroit Cabinet Manufacturing is deeply committed to sustainability and community development. We supply Energy Star-certified appliances, recycled and engineered wood products, and eco-conscious finishes that meet modern green-building standards. DCM has supplied materials for more than 3,600 affordable housing units, supporting HUD and MSHDA initiatives across Michigan. Our team also assists developers with compliance, design, and material recommendations tailored to elderly, family, and special-needs housing projects. By choosing DCM, you align with a manufacturer that values both environmental responsibility and social impact.
