01Overview
Omega was born in a barn in Washburn, Iowa more than thirty years ago and is today the custom-cabinet craftsman of the MasterBrand Cabinets family. Omega starts with raw lumber in its own rough mill and finishes with hand-selected woods, top-of-the-line hardware and hand-applied finishing techniques.
Two product platforms — Classic Framed and Modern Full Access (frameless) — share nearly every door style, and Inset construction is available with an optional 1″-thick door for true furniture detailing. If it can be drawn, Omega can usually build it.
02Why We Partner With Omega
- True custom when a project needs it: custom finishes, door and species availability, plus a full complement of modifications.
- Every construction method under one roof — framed, full access and inset — so one kitchen can mix looks without mixing manufacturers.
- The deepest palette in our program: 86 door styles, 71 finishes and seven hardwood species, plus acrylic and textured laminate.
- Backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty and built to the ANSI A161.1 standard certified by ICC-ES.
