We made a video of our Revolution Corner and wanted to share it with you. It’s a lazy-susan unit – with a surprise feature – drawers!
Drop in on us at our Duncan or Nanaimo showroom – we’d be happy to let you try it for yourself, or get started on your kitchen plan with our kitchen planning checklist.
Since we shone the spotlight on Nanaimo in a previous post, we thought our customers might like a similar peek at our Duncan Showroom.
You may recognize Arlene – our sales chief – who usually occupies the pole-position in the showroom behind the reception desk. Jay makes an appearance in this photo as well as in our Now Open Saturdays in Nanaimo post because he serves customers in both Nanaimo and Duncan.
Arlene and Jay are standing beside our new island display, the cabinets shown have raised-panel maple doors that are painted antique-white and then given a glazing of a dark paint. It’s a difficult finish that not many cabinet shops on Vancouver Island can equal, and it’s key to this popular ‘modern country’ style.
Other cabinets in this island have interiors made from White Mel, Maple Mel, and Birch-Ply, as well as drawers in Metabox, Tandembox, and Dovetail.
Revolution Corner Cabinet
Another great corner-cabinet option we have on display is our Revolution Corner – it offers corner drawers and a rotating lazy-susan style platform – combined. You can see it in the photo at right, but really it should be tried to be properly appreciated.
Drop in on us sometime – you’ll find us at:

Monday – Friday

Pictures are often worth more than words. We install cabinets everyday so we know what is involved in a kitchen cabinet installation, but not all of our customers have been through this process before. Here is how one of our installations looked earlier this year:
Whether new construction or a renovation, this is the way we need the space when we start. Clear of obstructions, with electrical and plumbing ready and in-place. Continue reading
Our Nanaimo showroom is filled with some of our best work, and it’s now open Saturday to serve you better.
Our kitchen designers Kellie and Jay will be happy to answer your questions and – should you wish – design a kitchen complete with 3D pictures of what your kitchen will look like as part of our free-of-charge quoting process. Want to know more about how the process works? Here’s a link to an overview of what’s involved when ordering kitchen cabinets from Gillingham Cabinets.
Corner Drawer Unit
We think you will be impressed with our Nanaimo Showroom – from our Glazed-Antique finishes that few cabinet companies on Vancouver Island can match, to our classic dark-stained maple.
There are tasteful displays of non-wood door types like Thermofoil and PVC and the rich wood displays in Cherry, Fir, and a more eco-friendly Bamboo.
Even more worth the visit is the chance to try for yourself our corner drawer units and our exclusive to Vancouver Island revolution-corner unit.

I know – you’re wondering what a cabinet blog is doing talking about thermostats. Well, as part of our commitment to making our cabinets a little bit greener every year, this year we decided to take a look at our heating bills.
Our heating needs are currently responsible for about 20% of our carbon footprint, so cutting that down could have a significant effect on our overall footprint. In fact, our preliminary tests show a reduction of as much as 50% may be possible. Continue reading
