Custom Millwork & Closets in Astoria
Kitchens, built-ins and aluminum & glass closets for Astoria’s brick row houses, two-family homes, prewar walk-ups and new waterfront buildings, built in our Industry City shop and sized for rooms where every inch of storage counts.
Astoria homes
Built for Astoria’s housing
Much of Astoria is early 20th-century attached housing and low-rise apartment buildings, with a growing number of new buildings near the East River. Room sizes, stairs and delivery access change block by block.
Row houses & two-family homes
Attached brick houses on the side streets off Ditmars Boulevard, 30th Avenue and Broadway, often with an owner’s unit and a rental, where kitchens and closets are updated floor by floor and pieces have to clear a narrow front stair.
Prewar walk-ups & garden apartments
Low-rise apartment buildings and courtyard garden complexes, many run as co-ops, with modest bedrooms and few closets, so fitted wardrobes and built-in storage do a lot of work.
New waterfront buildings
Newer rental and condominium buildings along the East River and in the blocks near it, where standard closets and kitchens are replaced with custom pieces and deliveries follow the building’s elevator schedule.
Shops & storefronts
Retail along Steinway Street, 30th Avenue and Ditmars Boulevard, where wall displays, shelving and counters are built to the fit-out drawings for small, narrow storefronts.

All of QueensWhat we build
What we build for Astoria homes and shops
In Astoria’s smaller rooms, most projects start with storage: closets, kitchens and built-ins that use the full wall height.
Custom Millwork
Kitchen cabinetry for galley and row-house kitchens, built-in bookcases, window seats and wall storage built to the measurements of older, out-of-square rooms.
Custom Millwork
Aluminum & Glass Systems
Aluminum-framed modular closets and glass cabinet doors suit bedrooms with no closet or a shallow one, adding hanging space and light without a heavy look. Built in our shop.
Aluminum & Glass Systems
Indoor Fireplace Systems
Planika bioethanol fireplaces need no chimney or gas line, which helps in apartments and row houses without a working flue. Requirements for room size, air circulation and clearances vary by model.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Do you build for Astoria row houses and two-family homes?
Yes. We build kitchens, closets and built-ins for houses and apartments throughout Astoria, from our shop in Industry City, Brooklyn. Pieces are sized to final measurements of each room and the route in.
My bedroom has no closet. What are the options?
A freestanding-look modular closet on aluminum framing, or a built-in wardrobe along one wall, can add hanging space, drawers and shelves. Both are built to the room’s measurements, including ceiling height.
How do large pieces get into a walk-up or row house?
Cabinets and wardrobes are built in sections sized for the narrowest stair, doorway and turn on the way in. Those clearances are confirmed with the final measurements before anything is made.
