Our First Episode of 'Carter Can' is Airing This Weekend
It looks like our first episode of Carter Can will be airing this weekend on HGTV. This is one of the episodes that we filmed last year out in California (just outside of LA). In the show, they featured the Marquis Cinnamon cabinets and did a nice little segment on assembling the cabinets and the ease of putting them together. Check your local listings for air time, but it will be airing some time this Saturday. For behind the scene pictures of this episode of Carter Can, check out our news and press releases section

Another Episode of Money Hunters is Airing Tonight
I know it is short notice, but the second episode of Money Hunters that we participated in will be airing tonight on the DIY Network at 8:30. Tune in to see how they transformed this house, and how our cabinets turned out. They didn't film any of this one at our office, so I am not sure that anyone will actually be in the show, but you never know....
New Additions to the Oak, White, and Sunset Vanity Lines
After a nice long week in the Outer Banks, it is back to business as usual at RTA Cabinet Store. We are adding some new items to the vanity collections. For now it will be limited to the basic Oak, White, and Sunset Vanities, but we are adding a vanity drawer bank that is 12 inches wide and 21 deep. This will give greater flexibility when laying out your bathroom, since you will be able to create combination vanities to fit any size space (rather than just using stock sizes). This is a much needed addition to the vanity lines! Keep posted for more new items coming to the site.... get ready for the eco-friendly line that will be launching in the next month or so.
Did You Catch RTA Cabinet Store on Money Hunters Last Night?
While we have done numerous shows on both the DIY Network and HGTV, the first episode actually just aired last night. Did you happen to watch Money Hunters last night at 8:30?? The host of the show did a walk through of our showroom, and talked about our cabinets for a couple of minutes. It was great exposure for both RTA Cabinet Store and the kitchen cabinets that we import. Jake got a quick appearance in the show when he was delivering the Autumn Shaker cabinets to the house, and Jonelle helped the homeowner tally up the total cost of the kitchen. Keep checking back to find out when our next appearance on the networks will be!
Kitchen Impossible Film Crew Was at the Office Today
Coming right off the long Memorial Day weekend, the film crew from the show Kitchen Impossible came to the King of Prussia warehouse today to film part of show here while they were "shopping" for kitchen cabinets. They brought along the homeowner, who just happens to be Danny Bonaduce- local Philadelphia radio host and television celebrity. We are installing the Autumn Shaker cabinets in his house in Old City Philadelphia, which happens to be a converted warehouse.
While we don't know what will actually make the show and what won't, the host Mark Bartolomeo, spent some time talking about the kitchen cabinets, all of the features, and even showing some of the upgrades that are available. I can't wait to see the episode to see how much of the showroom and building make it into the show.
New Series of "How-To" Videos Being Created
We are always striving to make it easier for customers to understand and use RTA cabinets. Over the past couple of weeks, Jake has been working on a series of how-to videos that we are going to be uploading to the website for everyone to use for free (I know, there are some companies that actually charge for them!!). In the next couple of days you will see a couple of new videos on the site, which include how to attach the cabinets together, how to install the upgraded drawer glides, and how to install base/wall cabinets. If there are any particular videos that you are interested in seeing, email us through the contact page.
Money Hunters- First Episode Airing on June 9th Featuring the Autumn Shaker Cabinets
For anyone that has the DIY Network, the first episode of Money Hunters that we filmed will be airing on June 9th at 8:30 PM. For this show, they actually came to our office/warehouse in King of Prussia and filmed part of the show here. It was a great experience and will highlight not only the Autumn Shaker Cabinets, but you will also get to see some of the new lines that we are starting to carry.
Next week we will be filming an episode of Kitchen Impossible at our office as well. It will also be featuring the Autumn Shaker Kitchen Cabinets, which seems to have become one of our most popular lines. The cabinets will be installed in the house of Danny Bonaduce, local radio host and former star of The Partridge Family.

RTA Showroom- Pictures of the new displays
After several months of delays, the showroom at our King of Prussia facility is finally complete. We set up displays of all the kitchen cabinet and bathroom vanity lines that are currently available. Rev-A-Shelf will be stopping by to install some of their products in the display cabinets. The showroom was completed right before Money Hunters showed up at our office (nothing like waiting until the last minute to finish it!).
Filming at our King of Prussia Warehouse Tomorrow
Tomorrow is a big day for the staff at RTA Cabinet Store! The camera crew from "Money Hunters" will be at the warehouse in the afternoon to film part of the show from our facility. They will be walking around our warehouse showroom and showing off our Autumn Shaker cabinets. They chose our King of Prussia facility for it's proximity to the filming location, but would have preferred to use our Pocono facility since it is much larger and has the bulk of the inventory. This is one of two episodes that we will be participating in Money Hunters, so keep an eye out for RTA Cabinet Store to be on The DIY Network very soon!
RTA Cabinet Store Warehouse Being Visited by the DIY Network Show "Money Makers"
Our interaction with the DIY Network recently expanded when we picked up two episodes of the new show "Money Makers". As part of the episode, the camera crew will be coming to our warehouse to show where the cabinets come from, how orders are fulfilled, and the behind the scenes of our business. We are really excited about being more involved, and having part of the show based on a visit to our facility. So keep an eye out for our Autumn Shaker cabinets in the show, along with the behind the scenes shots at both our King of Prussia and Pocono facilities. This episode is going to start taping at the beginning of May, so pictures and highlights will follow.
RTA Cabinet Store is Developing It's Own Kitchen Design Software
What is the biggest challenge for the average homeowner when getting ready to remodel their kitchen? Often it is coming up with the actual design. Most people have a vision of what they want it to look like, but are nervous about trying to do the kitchen layout themselves. Fitting the cabinets into the layout and making sure they account for all of the necessary cabinet sizes, seems to be an overwhelming challenge.
Our goal is to make the kitchen buying process as painless as possible, so we are taking the plunge and designing our own kitchen layout program! This is a huge investment for us, but I think in the long run it will make it easier for our customers to select their cabinet style, layout their kitchen, and purchase everything they need from the comfort of their home. We are still a couple of months away from having it completed, but keep an eye out for a new look and completely new way to buy cabinets!

Heritage Honey Maple is Replaced with the Richmond line of Cabinets
As cabinet trends change, we attempt to adjust our cabinet lines to match. With that in mind we decided to discontinue the Heritage Honey Maple line of kitchen cabinets and add an updated version of the same finish- The Richmond Cabinets. The Richmond Kitchen Cabinets are very similar is color, with a slightly more modern design. This cabinet line also offers some different sizes and features that you couldn't get in the Honey Maple. This line is now fully stocked and ready to be shipped!
So if you were thinking about buying the Honey Maple, but didn't have a chance to order it before it was removed from the site, take a look at the Richmond line (I think you will be pleasantly surprised).
