KITCHEN FIXTURES
From the Fabuwood website: “We’re excited to announce a significant milestone for Fabuwood: the alignment of Plain & Fancy Custom Cabinetry, a luxury brand known for its timeless designs and exceptional craftsmanship, with Fabuwood. This marks a new chapter for both companies, combining what each offers to create an elevated customer experience.“
Plain & Fancy a longstanding custom cabinet maker located at 2550 Stiegel Pike in Schaefferstown, PA was acquired by Fabuwood creating a partnership that is sure to help both companies.
Just north of Lancaster Pennsylvania the Plain & Fancy factory has produced high end custom cabinetry for over 50 years. Pain & Fancy founder John Achey who began the company in 1968 making cabinetry in his garage created a rapidly growing brand that now manufactures their line in a 44,000 square foot facility. While small compared to Fabuwood’s one million square foot manufacturing plant Plain & Fancy is one of the largest custom cabinet makers in the state of Pennsylvania.
Some Trivia below:
Main Line Kitchen Design’s President Paul McAlary is first cousins to Kevin McAlary President of Eagle Associates. Eagle Associates is the largest sales organization for Plain & Fancy and represents the brand throughout all of New England. Kevin’s Pulitzer Prize winning brother Mike McAlary, who unfortunately died very young, was played by Tom Hanks on Broadway. The play about Mike McAlary’s life was named Lucky Guy and was written by Nora Ephron and directed by Mike Nichols. Watch clip here.
When you have a vast imagination, anything is possible when it comes to your kitchen. Welcome your guests and invite them to be surrounded by natural light and chic design. Contemporary cabinetry with rich textures really helps this kitchen to stand out.
The state of Pennsylvania is known for it’s custom cabinetry.
This is partly due to the large Amish and Mennonite communities that settled around Lancaster and central Pennsylvania. Some of the other well known Pennsylvania custom cabinet makers include Wood-Mode, Craftmaid, Kountry Kraft, and Wellsford. These custom brands like Plain & Fancy are not small shops but large cabinet making plants that mass produce custom cabinetry. Read the blog below to better understand what professionals consider custom cabinetry.
Main Line Kitchen Design carries 8 brands of cabinetry. Fabuwood is one of our brands and we will begin carrying Plain & Fancy sometime in 2025.
