We will look at seven services and products at Bishop that help homeowners get exactly what they want:
- Custom Finishes
- Cabinet Modifications
- Custom Cabinetry
- Solutions for High Ceilings
- Accessories for Larger Islands
- Cabinet Organization
- Lighting
Custom Finishes
Bishop has 14 standard paints and 14 standard stains that are popular in the market. We are constantly reviewing trends to make our standard offerings meet the vast majority of the market’s needs. We do the same with our Modern Materials line, which currently has 21 standard colors.
However, one of our top categories in paints, stains and Modern Materials are custom finishes. In paint, we can match an existing sample or any paint from Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore.
For stains we can custom match non-standard stain on a wood species it was not originally intended. Like paints, there are hundreds of thermally fused laminates (TLFs) Modern Materials. Similar to paints, customers can select Modern Materials outside of our standard offerings, although minimum order quantities must be achieved.
In all cases we create a sample for the homeowner that they approve prior to production.

Cabinet Modifications
You want to maximize the space in your kitchen. Even with over 1100 SKUs in Bishop’s catalog, it does not cover every need. When additional options are required, Bishop offers more than 20 different cabinet modifications from custom stile sizes to doors prepared for glass. Then we allow these to be fine tuned further with height, width and depth in increments of 1/4′′.
Custom Cabinetry
Bishop is considered a semi-custom cabinet manufacturer. However, we can make unique cabinets for homeowners. This requires a detailed drawing, such as the example on the left, developed in conjunction with our custom cabinet department. Many times, if you can design it, we can build it. Our custom cabinet department will help you design in the most efficient way possible with minimal loss of functionality.
Solutions for High Ceilings
For decades ceilings were 8′ high. Today 9 feet, 10 feet or even higher ceilings are not uncommon. To accommodate taller rooms, Bishop offers three standard tall cabinets over 96″:
- 102″
- 108″
- 114″
These three sizes accommodate most needs. As with any cabinetry at Bishop, width, depth and height modications can be made. In addition, we can make taller cabinets in maple, cherry and plain slice white oak up to 119″. Modern materials can have a maximum height of 107″.
Accessories for Larger Islands
The kitchen is a natural gathering place for friends and family. Larger islands are trending to accommodate festive gatherings.
Larger islands can be enhanced with pilasters and customized wainscot panels. Pilasters are boxes that can be added to the side of an island that perfectly match the paint or stain to provide a seamless end to an island. Pilasters can have plain or fluted ends.

Fluted Face Pilaster
Wainscots are a decorative piece that can be added to the island that often matches the door style in a kitchen, providing a consistent look on flat surfaces. They can be on the ends of islands, but also any cabinet at the end of a run.

Lighting
Cabinet lighting has been growing in popularity. Lighting solutions today are often controlled with an app on your phone. The big advantage of course is improved lighting to help the homeowner find items in a cabinet. Some lighting solutions offer a variety of settings, such as “warm white”, “soft white”, “day light” and even different colors to fit the mood you wish to convey.
Cabinet lighting is a dynamic segment that is experiencing substantial innovation. Bishop is undertaking a project to update our lighting offerings. Stay tuned for more!
