We are phasing out our Tyrol Flat and Salzburg Gloss finishes. These products have become increasingly expensive and more difficult to source in a timely manner, resulting in production and shipment delays for our cabinetry. They are still available to finish any jobs currently in process for a limited time.

Given the current uncertainty with the tariffs, we are forced to adjust our prices. We have not had a price increase in over a year. We had hoped to avoid any increases this year, in order to offset the impact of pending tariffs. However, our costs on all material and supplies originating in the USA are rising by 25% as reciprocal tariffs apply to us. So, we find ourselves forced to increase our prices by 4% as of April 15, 2025.
This price increase will apply to orders submitted after 5:00pm on Tuesday April 15th. Orders will hold the old price provided they are finalized and into production within 4 weeks of submission and are shipped according to our current lead times.
As always, we are thankful for your support. We will continue do our best to help you through these financially trying times.
Artcraft Kitchens has recently learned that the manufacturer, has decided to discontinue the hardware used in our Midway Backsplash Vertical Slider cabinets. We have therefore removed the cabinets from AKOLADES. They have noted that their decision has been made based on difficulties with specific parts of the hardware malfunctioning if the units were not installed completely plumb and square.
The cabinet codes that are discontinued, are as follows:
M90U48X20VSBS
M90U60X20VSBS
M120U60X20VSBS
M180U60X20VSBS
M240U60X20VSBS
The manufacturer says that they are working on a more robust design for this type of hardware that will become available in the future..
