BluePrint Cabinets vs Wildwood Cabinets in Moncton
By Lewis Vandervalk, BluePrint Cabinets
If you’re comparing BluePrint Cabinets and Wildwood Cabinets in Moncton, you’re looking at two substantially different ways of buying a kitchen.
Wildwood Cabinets operates a large in-house manufacturing operation and offers cabinetry, countertops, appliances, professional design, delivery and installation.
BluePrint Cabinets is more focused. We design and supply ready-to-assemble cabinetry with plywood cabinet boxes, transparent pricing and free 3D kitchen design.
In short: Wildwood Cabinets offers a vertically integrated, full-service kitchen model, while BluePrint Cabinets focuses on cabinet design and supply.
Which approach makes sense depends on how much of the project you want your cabinet company to handle.

Focused Cabinet Supplier vs Everything Under One Roof
Wildwood Cabinets’ current offering extends beyond cabinetry into countertops, appliances, commercial millwork, bathroom vanities and multi-unit projects.
Its Moncton operation includes more than 120,000 square feet of production space and the company promotes an “everything under one roof” approach.
BluePrint Cabinets isn’t trying to replicate that model.
We focus on designing and supplying cabinetry.
For someone wanting a vertically integrated supplier involved with multiple components of the kitchen, Wildwood Cabinets’ model is worth considering.
For someone who already has a contractor, trades or preferred suppliers — or simply wants to separate the cabinet purchase from the rest of the renovation — BluePrint Cabinets offers a different approach.
Compare the Cabinet Itself
Whatever business model you prefer, inspect what you’re actually buying.
BluePrint Cabinets’ standard construction includes:
- 5/8-inch plywood boxes and backs
- 3/4-inch solid birch face frames
- Solid-wood dovetail drawers
- Full-extension soft-close drawer slides
- Soft-close hinges
- Lifetime hardware warranty
When comparing Wildwood Cabinets, ask about the construction and materials of the specific cabinet product included in your proposal.
Don’t assume based on either company’s marketing.
Custom Manufacturing Has Real Advantages
Wildwood Cabinets manufactures in-house.
BluePrint Cabinets uses a standardised RTA system with cabinet sizing generally available in 3-inch increments.
Custom manufacturing can provide more flexibility where a kitchen requires unusual dimensions or bespoke elements.
But not every room requires fully custom cabinetry.
If your kitchen can be designed properly using the BluePrint Cabinets range, it’s worth comparing what the different model does to your overall project cost.
Compare the Entire Scope
Wildwood Cabinets’ published process runs through design, engineered drawings, manufacturing, delivery and installation.
BluePrint Cabinets provides free design and 3D rendering and then supplies the cabinetry.
So break the project down:
- Cabinets
- Design
- Assembly
- Delivery
- Installation
- Countertops
- Appliances
- Other renovation work
Only then are you comparing the complete cost.
