Since wood is a product of nature, the color of oak ranges from light tan to reddish brown. Any variation is due to natural characteristics found in our lighter wood-tone finishes. Grain variations and mineral streaks contribute to the inherent beauty of each cabinet.

Since no two trees are alike, true hardwood can be expected to have a variety of colors and grain textures. The finished look of fine cabinetry owes much of its' charm to these variations in color tone and grain characteristics. Because these variations are truly the natural beauty of hardwood, unusual or wild grain patterns are not considered as imperfections and will not constitute replacement, nor will Baker Road assume responsibility for variations in color tone and graining between these samples and a completed cabinet. No special emphasis will be made to select doors and drawers to match one another.


All structural case components are fabricated from 3/4" thick, 7-ply plain sliced red oak plywood. All doors, drawer fronts and trim are cut from solid, kiln-dried northern red oak. All drawer boxes are constructed of 12mm thick, 9-ply solid birch plywood, free from all voids. There are no particle or fibre-type board products used anywhere in the construction of any Baker Road products.


All joints are assembled with PVA glue and 8mm X 30 mm birch multi-grooved dowel pins. All exterior edges are rounded to a 1/2" radius. Top, sides, drawer panel, and modesty panels are all 3/4" thick red oak.


All drawers are constructed using a glued, bore and dowel joint. Drawer bottoms are 1/4" birch or maple plywood and grooved in on four sides. Box drawers run on powder-coated European soft roller drawer slides with 75 lb. capacity. File drawers use Accuride full extension ball-bearing slides with a 75 lb.rating. Knee space pencil drawer is equipped with a lock.


Finish for exposed wood surfaces consists of multi-step high quality Sherwin Williams products, including hand-rubbed stain, sanding sealer, and two coats of satin lacquer.
