Outdoor & Marine Cabinetry That’s Tougher Than The Elements

Beyond Wood: Custom Outdoor and Marine Cabinets Built to Last with PVC

Are you dreaming of a stunning outdoor kitchen that can withstand the elements? Or perhaps marine-grade storage solutions that laugh in the face of saltwater? Forget the limitations of traditional wood! At Cache River Mill & MetalWorks, we’re revolutionizing outdoor and marine cabinetry by harnessing the incredible potential of cellular and expanded PVC materials, including the renowned Versatex.

While our name might evoke images of classic woodworking, our expertise extends far beyond timber. We understand that outdoor and marine environments demand materials that can endure harsh conditions without succumbing to rot, warping, or insect infestation. That’s why we specialize in crafting bespoke cabinets using cutting-edge PVC materials, offering a superior alternative for durability, longevity, and style.

Why Choose PVC for Your Outdoor and Marine Cabinets?

Cellular and expanded PVC, like Versatex, offer a wealth of advantages that make them ideal for demanding applications:

  • Unrivaled Moisture Resistance: Unlike wood, PVC is completely impervious to water. Say goodbye to worries about rot, mildew, and swelling, even in the most humid or wet environments. This makes it the perfect choice for outdoor kitchens, boat galleys, and dockside storage.
  • Exceptional Durability: PVC is a robust material that can withstand the rigors of outdoor life and the corrosive effects of saltwater. It resists impact, scratches, and fading, ensuring your cabinets maintain their beauty for years to come.
  • Low Maintenance: Forget about constant sealing, staining, or painting. PVC requires minimal upkeep – a simple wipe-down is usually all it takes to keep your cabinets looking pristine. This frees up your time to enjoy your outdoor spaces or your time on the water.
  • Insect and Pest Resistance: Termites, carpenter ants, and other wood-boring insects are no match for PVC. This inherent resistance provides peace of mind and protects your investment.
  • Design Versatility: PVC can be easily machined, cut, and shaped, allowing us to create custom cabinet designs that perfectly match your aesthetic and functional needs. Whether you envision sleek modern lines or a more traditional style, we can bring your vision to life.
  • Paintable and Finishable: While PVC boasts a clean and attractive look on its own, it can also be painted or finished to match any color scheme or design preference. This allows for seamless integration with your existing outdoor or marine décor.
