WHAT IS MODULAR CASEWORK?

Modular casework refers to pre-fabricated, factory-made units, such as cabinets, shelving, and storage systems, designed for easy assembly and installation. 

PROS

• Affordability: Modular casework is generally more cost-effective due to mass production and standardized designs. 
• Speed and Efficiency: Pre-fabricated units allow for faster installation and reduced project timelines. 
• Flexibility and Adaptability: Modular units can be easily reconfigured, relocated, or expanded as needed. 
• Sustainability: Modular casework often utilizes eco-friendly materials and generates less waste during construction. 
• Easier Installation: Modular casework is easier to install than millwork, which is essentially constructed onsite. 

CONS

• Potential for Compromised Aesthetics: Standardized designs may not always achieve the same level of aesthetic appeal as custom millwork. 
• Assembly may be required. Manufacturers ship most mass-produced casework as flat-mass, ready-to-assemble furniture. The process of assembling it can be a hassle if there are lengthy and confusing instructions.

WHAT IS MILLWORK?

Millwork refers to woodwork crafted on-site, typically to specific dimensions and designs, encompassing elements like doors, trim, crown molding, and wall paneling. 

PROS

• Customization: Millwork allows for bespoke designs and precise integration into a space. 
• Architectural Character: It adds a sense of craftsmanship and elegance, enhancing the overall aesthetic. 
• Durable and High-Quality: Often crafted by skilled artisans, millwork ensures a high level of quality and durability. 

CONS

• Higher Cost: Custom construction typically involves higher labor and material costs.
• Longer Installation Time: On-site construction can be time-consuming. Custom fabrication and on-site installation can lead to longer lead times, especially during peak renovation periods.
• Damage: Accidental damage, such as nicks or spills, can be a concern with wood millwork, potentially leading to expensive repairs or replacements.
• Limited Reconfiguration: Millwork is generally difficult to relocate or reconfigure once installed. Millwork is designed for specific locations and dimensions, making it less flexible or interchangeable compared to modular options.
• Maintenance: Wood millwork requires regular maintenance to preserve its appearance and structural integrity, including refinishing and addressing potential damage from spills or humidity.

MILLWORK VS MODULAR CASEWORK

Millwork, characterized by custom, on-site construction, offers unparalleled customization and architectural character, while modular casework, with its pre-fabricated, standardized approach, prioritizes affordability, speed, and flexibility.

We offer Modular Casework Systems that consist of hundreds of height, width and depth variations, door options, many different shelving types and sorters of all sizes.

Choose from the many standard choices in hardware and finishes or customize to match your space. Cabinet bodies, doors and kickplates may be made of any combination of laminate, powder-coated steel and stainless steel.

Our Modular Casework Systems can be comprised of  base cabinets, wall cabinets, corner cabinets and storage units. The casework is designed like furniture with the ability to be customized, modified, relocated, and reused while maintaining the look of built-in millwork cabinets. Standard materials for our work-surfaces include HPL laminate, phenolic resin, stainless steel, marmoleum and solid surfacing. We provide a wide selection of locks, hinges and handles. In addition to our standard offerings, we have significant experience working with specialty finishes, hardware and surfaces.

The Modern Mudroom is a place where employees enter their workplace and they have a place to safely and securely store their belongings.

Regardless of the “return to work” model your organization decides on or evolves to, the Modern Mudroom can help reduce the spread of infection and increase your employees’ physical and mental being. Solutions like the Modern Mudroom can make a great first impression to employees and visitors to show that they are cared for.

In modern workspaces, locker storage needs to play a variety of roles. Creating a safe place for employee belongings is a high priority, followed closely by the need to contribute to smart office design. By the use of smart lockers, employees would have a practically touchless experience by presenting their RFID or mobile credential to the reader on the lockers. An available locker door would pop open allowing them to put in their change of shoes, bike helmet, umbrella or jacket until they are ready to leave the building once again. Immediately on-hand, would be a sanitizing station before entering into the main office space.

There is no set standard as to what the right locker configuration is, since every application is unique so should the lockers. Mix and match locker sizes within the same locker bank to accommodate the different needs and sized items and objects that employees bring into the office. Consider, single or double-tier lockers for employees that need to store their parka or umbrella. Three or four-tier lockers for everyday items, like a change of shoes, helmet, bag and more. Or a five or six-tier for smaller openings.

It’s not just a locker… It’s part of the strategy to help people feel safe, their belongings secure and their well-being cared for with clean touchless laminate hygiene lockers.

As employees return to the workplace & students to school, they want to know that they are cared for and that their surroundings are safe and clean. Let your employees know that you hear them with Hygiene Lockers.

Hygiene Lockers are composed of touchless lockers with a central sink or sanitation station for hand-washing and disinfecting. We have to reconsider the amount of touches, the clean-ability, the technology and the ability to integrate smart lockers into the overall experience and systems that are needed to create, safe, clean and secure environments in this coming “new normal.”

Hygiene Lockers are a gentle nudge that communicates to the workplace the importance of consistent hand-washing as we return to the office. Choose a contrasting color or design for the finish to make the hand washing stations pop. Make your Hygiene Lockers safe & provide a practically touchless experience by utilizing your current RFID employee badges, mobile credentials on the phone or wearable, or a mobile app. There are no locks mounted to the doors making it easy to clean.

Lockers can be used to divide space in the office or built in the wall. They further promote employee safety by being an easy, frictionless way to visually remind employees to wash their hands frequently.

Our solutions are highly flexible and adaptable – giving you practically endless amounts of configurations. Each model has a variety of parameters which allow you to easily manipulate and customize various aspects of the casework design. Personal storage can also look fantastic while adding function & safety.
