Cabinet Project
Design Master Solutions, LLC
Streamline cabinet projects with powerful quoting and management tools.
Cabinet Project is a specialized software solution tailored for RTA and semi-custom cabinet dealers along with their installation teams throughout the United States. It allows users to effortlessly import price lists from PDFs or spreadsheets, apply dealer multipliers, and create quotes that factor in SKU or linear foot pricing, inclusive of labor, taxes, and accompanied by a branded PDF. Users can also draw walls, openings, and cabinet structures, providing the capability to visualize kitchen designs in 3D while effectively pricing the layout. Homeowners benefit from access to a customer portal where they can review designs, approve quotes, and make deposits via credit card. Once a quote receives approval, it can easily convert into a purchase order for manufacturers, enabling users to track its status and estimated delivery while also documenting any missing or damaged items through photo claims upon arrival. The software further streamlines installation scheduling, coordinates crew routes, manages punch lists with images, issues final invoices, and integrates flawlessly with QuickBooks Online. In addition, it generates high-quality photo renders in various door styles, enhancing the visual appeal of proposed designs. Available on both web and Android platforms, it supports multiple languages such as English, Spanish, and Portuguese, specifically serving the needs of cabinet dealers, contractors, and installers, while not targeting manufacturers or CNC shops. By offering such a broad array of features, Cabinet Project significantly simplifies the entire workflow from quoting to installation, positioning itself as an essential asset for professionals within the cabinetry sector, ultimately leading to increased efficiency and customer satisfaction.
