Chicago Kitchen Cabinets Store
CCC Cabinets is a wholesale kitchen cabinet store and warehouse at 2180 S Wolf Rd in Des Plaines, minutes from O’Hare, serving contractors, builders, remodelers, kitchen dealers and designers across Chicagoland. All 15 door styles are on display and kept in stock, so you can compare finishes, open drawers, check the box construction and load an in-stock order in one visit.

Key takeaways
- The showroom and the stocking warehouse share one building in Des Plaines, so a trade customer can pick a style and pick up an in-stock order on the same trip.
- Bring measurements, a layout drawing and appliance specs. A store visit settles finish and construction questions; it cannot fix a layout that was never measured.
- Use the visit to inspect what you cannot judge online: box material, drawer joinery, hinge adjustment, paint consistency and interior color.
- CCC Cabinets sells to the trade through a trade account. Homeowners can visit and look, then buy through their contractor or designer.
- Hours: Monday to Friday 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Saturday 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM, closed Sunday. Call (872) 241-5525 before a pickup.
Expectations from a Professional Kitchen Cabinets Store
A kitchen cabinet store that works with the trade should answer three questions quickly: what is in stock, how it is built, and how it gets to the jobsite. Anything less means the store is a display room and the real answers come later, after a deposit.
Comprehensive Cabinet Collections
Our cabinet collections cover 15 door styles in three catalog series. Every style uses the same cabinet box, so the choice between them is about door profile and finish, not about a different quality tier.
| Series | Door styles on display | Look |
|---|---|---|
| Modern | Pure White, Espresso Shaker, Light Grey | Flat-panel shaker in painted white and grey, plus a stained espresso wood grain |
| Prestige | Millennium White, Dark Grey, Millennium Off White | Raised panel in painted white and cream/ivory; Dark Grey is a flat shaker with a stained grain |
| Elegant | Black Roast, Shaker Blue, Millennium Blue, Matcha Latte, Mini White Shaker, Millennium Grey, Cappuccino Shaker, Millennium Cappuccino, Mini Cappuccino Shaker | Painted deep black, navy and sage green; mini shaker frames; stained cappuccino and grey wood grains |
Black Roast, Matcha Latte and Millennium Cappuccino are new for 2026. If a client is torn between two colors, seeing the full doors side by side under the showroom lights usually ends the debate faster than any sample chip.
Expert Guidance and Support
Professional Showroom Assistance
Showroom staff can walk you through door profiles, which items are on the shelf, assembled versus ready-to-assemble options and how ordering works. Bring your own layout: CCC Cabinets is a stocking wholesaler, not a custom shop, so the store helps you choose and source cabinets rather than design the kitchen for you.
Digital Tools for Easy Access
Before or after a visit, browse the styles at the CCC Cabinets website. The door catalog, digital catalog and flyer are linked from the Resources menu, and designers can work with the CCC catalog in the 2020 design program. Treat software specs and prices as a starting point and confirm them with a sales representative before ordering.
What to Check When You Visit a Cabinet Store
Photos hide construction. These are the details worth opening, pulling and looking at in person, with the specification CCC Cabinets uses on every style.
| What to check | Why it matters | CCC Cabinets specification |
|---|---|---|
| Box sides and bottoms | Holds screws and resists sagging around sinks and dishwashers | 1/2″ A-grade plywood with wood veneer |
| Back panel | A full back gives you something solid to fasten through into studs | 1/2″ full plywood back |
| Shelves | Thin shelves bow under dishes and canned goods | 3/4″ A-grade plywood, adjustable |
| Face frame and overlay | Sets the look and how tight the door reveals are | 3/4″ birch face frame, full overlay doors |
| Door center panel | Determines how a painted finish holds up to seasonal movement | MDF (some styles MDF with applied veneer) |
| Hinges | Adjustment lets the installer line up doors after the cabinets settle | 1-1/4″ concealed, 6-way adjustable, soft-close |
| Drawer boxes | Drawers take the most daily abuse in a kitchen | 17 mm solid wood with dovetail (finger-joint) corners, 3/8″ plywood bottom |
| Drawer glides | Full extension gives access to the back of the drawer | Full-extension soft-close glides |
| Interior color | Visible every time a door opens, especially behind glass | Matches the door color on all styles except Black Roast and Matcha Latte, which have a natural/cappuccino wood-tone interior |
| Toe kick | A finished kick saves a site-finishing step | 4-1/2″ x 7/8″ finished toe kick |

Benefits of Visiting a Showroom Near Chicago
Hands-On Experience
Touching the product is the only reliable way to judge it. Open a door and let the soft-close hinge catch it. Pull a drawer to full extension with some weight on your hand. Look down a run of painted doors at an angle to see whether the sheen is even. Ten minutes of this tells you more than a spec sheet.
Full-overlay Cabinet Doors
All CCC Cabinets styles use full-overlay doors, where the door covers most of the face frame and leaves narrow, even gaps. In the showroom you can see how the reveals line up across a run and decide whether that look suits the project. If you are weighing overlay types, read our full overlay vs half overlay guide.
Inspiration and Design Assistance
The showroom is most useful when you bring a client who has not committed to a color. Put two or three candidate doors next to the countertop sample and flooring photo you brought, check them in daylight near the windows, and settle the finish before the order goes in. Changes after an order is confirmed may carry extra charges.
How to Prepare for a Showroom Visit
Use this checklist so the visit ends with a decision, not another appointment:
- Wall-to-wall measurements of every run, plus ceiling height and any soffits or bulkheads.
- Locations of windows, doors and trim, with sizes.
- Plumbing, gas and electrical locations, including the sink centerline.
- Appliance model numbers or spec sheets: range, refrigerator, dishwasher, hood, microwave.
- A layout sketch or design file (the CCC catalog works in the 2020 design program).
- Countertop, backsplash and flooring samples or photos for color matching.
- Whether you want assembled cabinets or ready-to-assemble (RTA) boxes.
- The jobsite address and access notes if you will want delivery.
Wholesale Cabinet Suppliers: Supporting Successful Kitchen Projects Across Chicagoland
Reliable Logistics
Because the showroom sits on top of the stock, a trade customer can choose a style and load it the same day. Pickup or delivery is set up when the order is placed:
- Warehouse pickup: in-stock orders placed before early afternoon are usually ready the same day. Confirm the pickup 1-2 days ahead; unconfirmed pickups can be refused. Personal vehicles and tailgate pickups are allowed, and warehouse staff help load.
- Jobsite delivery: CCC delivers on its own trucks with its own drivers. Standard delivery is curbside, the delivery coordinator calls your contact the business day before, and the site must be able to take a vehicle of up to 24,000 lbs. Fees and options are on the delivery & pickups page.
- Check on the dock: count the packing list and inspect for damage before you sign. Claims are not accepted after signature.
Coordination with Installers
CCC Cabinets supplies cabinets only; installation stays with your crew. To keep installers productive, decide early between RTA and assembled cabinets. RTA boxes are lighter to move and quicker to release from the warehouse, while assembled cabinets save site labor but take longer to ship. Our RTA vs pre-assembled comparison covers the trade-offs.
Project Planning Support
For multi-unit or phased work, ordering from stocked styles lets a later phase match the first. If a layout needs a change to a standard cabinet, modifications are available for an additional flat fee, subject to availability, and modified items cannot be returned. Plan modifications before the order is confirmed.
From Showroom Visit to Pickup: How Ordering Works
- Open a trade account. Submit the application on the open an account page. Have your company details, EIN and a driver’s license or state ID ready, plus a resale certificate if you are tax exempt. You do not need an account to visit the showroom first.
- Order on the official CCC order form. Send it by email or fax. Orders not submitted on the official form are not processed.
- Sign the confirmation. A confirmation is sent within 3 hours of receipt, and the order stays pending until you sign and return it.
- Pick up or take delivery. Add any special shipping instructions to the order. Full details are on the order process page.
Why Visiting a Chicago Kitchen Cabinets Store Matters
Most cabinet problems on a kitchen job start with an assumption: the white was warmer in the photo, the drawers were supposed to be dovetailed, the interior was expected to match. A store visit replaces assumptions with things you have seen and handled, and it puts a name and phone number behind the order. For a broader comparison of custom shops, dealers, big-box stores and wholesale suppliers, see our guide to choosing a Chicago cabinet company.

CCC Cabinets is at 2180 S Wolf Rd, Des Plaines, IL 60018, minutes from O’Hare with access from I-90, I-294 and Route 83. The showroom and the stocking warehouse are in the same building, so there is no separate pickup location. On-site parking includes loading-dock access for trucks and trailers.

Do I need an appointment to visit the showroom?
Contractor walk-ins are welcome during business hours. You can also request a showroom visit online with your preferred day and time, and the team will confirm it. You do not need a trade account before visiting, so you can compare the 15 door styles first and apply afterward.
Can homeowners buy cabinets from CCC Cabinets?
CCC Cabinets is a wholesale supplier and does not sell retail. Accounts are for contractors, builders, remodelers, property managers, dealers and designers. Homeowners can visit the showroom to see the door styles in person, then purchase through their contractor or designer, who orders on a trade account.
Does CCC Cabinets have a catalog?
Yes. The door catalog, a digital catalog and a flyer are linked from the Resources menu on the CCC Cabinets website, and all 15 styles have their own pages under Cabinets. Designers can also use the CCC catalog in the 2020 design program, but should confirm specifications and pricing with a sales representative.
Can I pick up kitchen cabinets the same day?
In-stock orders placed before early afternoon are usually ready for same-day pickup from the Des Plaines warehouse. Confirm the pickup 1-2 days ahead, because unconfirmed pickups can be refused. Assembled orders generally take longer to release than ready-to-assemble boxes, and large orders can take longer.

Bring wall-to-wall measurements, ceiling height, window and door locations, plumbing and electrical locations, and appliance model numbers.
