Ken & Maria Strain, woodworkers

Everything we build starts as a pencil drawing.

For over 36 years, K&M has built custom kitchens and baths, entertainment centers, home office furniture and high-end custom woodwork for homes and businesses around Port Angeles and Sequim. The hand-drawn designs are free.

  1. 1

    We talk it through

    Ken comes out, measures the space and listens to what you need the piece to do.

  2. 2

    You get drawings

    A series of hand-drawn designs and an estimate with options. Free, either way.

  3. 3

    We build it

    In our shop on Butler Street. Low overhead keeps the quality high and the price modest.

  4. 4

    We put it in

    Scheduled around your other trades, so the work happens in the right order.

Nothing is nailed.

Every cabinet we make, in a kitchen, a bath or an entertainment center, is traditional frame and panel. Each panel is tongue-and-grooved into its frame, and bottoms are screwed into the sides.

frame (stile) ¾″ panel tongue & groove, no nails
¾-inch panels inside
Pre-finished ¾-inch panels on every cabinet interior.
Drawers that pull all the way out
Full-extension side-mount or under-mount slides. You can reach the back.
A finish that won’t yellow
LEED-certified, water-based acrylic lacquer. Low-VOC, tough, and resistant to household chemicals.
Made in Port Angeles
Every piece is built in our own shop, not ordered from a catalog.

From the people we built for

A homeowner and a builder who has hired us for more than 50 homes.
