When ordering your cabinets, one important detail is choosing which side your door opens from. At RTI Cabinets, you can select whether your cabinet door opens to the left or to the right — so we know which side to install the hinges during assembly.




Left-Opening Doors

  • Hinges are installed on the left side.

  • The door swings open toward the left.

  • Best when the cabinet is on the right side of a wall, appliance, or corner.

Right-Opening Doors

  • Hinges are installed on the right side.

  • The door swings open toward the right.

  • Best when the cabinet is on the left side of a wall, appliance, or corner.

Why Hinge Side Matters

  • Convenience: A door that swings the wrong way can block appliances, walls, or other cabinets.

  • Kitchen Flow: Correct hinge placement makes your kitchen feel more open and easy to navigate.

  • Customization: By letting you choose, we ensure your cabinets are assembled exactly the way you need them.

Please note: At RTI Cabinets, single-door cabinets are available up to 23" wide. Any cabinet wider than 23" will be built with double doors for durability and ease of use.


"All RTI cabinets come pre-assembled with hinges installed based on your selection. Simply choose the left or right door opening when placing your order, and we’ll take care of the rest."
