CabinetWizard
Draw the cabinet you will cut.
CabinetWizard builds the job the way a cabinetmaker sees it: part by part. In Production, a cabinet is not a picture. Side panel, top and bottom, shelf, back panel, door and plinth are separate, real parts. Click one, type its size to the millimeter, and its holes open automatically to match the neighbors. Whatever you build on screen goes straight to the cut list, the labels, the CNC file and the quote.
- Build panel by panel. Every part of the cabinet is in your hands. No limits, no templates.
- Type it in millimeters. Size, position, edge banding, cutout, pocket: it shows in 3D as you type.
- Send it to the shop floor. Cutting plan, labels, DXF, NC, assembly sheets and quote, ready.
Developed with continuous feedback from more than 20 specialist manufacturers.
Who develops this software?Tied to no other program. Runs on its own on your Windows PC.
CabinetWizard is a desktop application in its own right. No SketchUp needed, nothing else to install or open: click the icon, it launches, you start working. Design, production output, quote and rendering live in one window.

Seeing beats reading
Short clips from the program itself, all real screen recordings. In the 3D scene a cabinet works the way the real one does, from lift arms to hinges.
Bi-fold lift door
Two leaves fold upwards; watch the arms from the side.
Two-tier lift doors
Two doors, one above the other, each on its own piston.
Swing-up lift door
The door rises and turns up over the carcass.
Drawers and runners
One button opens them all, runners included.
Hinges up close
Watch the hinge move as the door closes.
Rotate a module
Select it, drag the ring or press the 90° button.
Columns, notched automatically
When a column meets a cabinet, the carcass is cut for it.
See inside with X-ray
Slide the column and watch the notch from the inside.
Drag and drop
Drop a module on the wall and read the remaining gap in mm.
Draw walls, get a kitchen
Draw the walls, auto-place, and the cabinets line up.
Change doors in one move
Pick a model and every door in the kitchen changes.
Help takes you there
Open a topic, press Go, and it moves to the right menu.
One-click render
Press Render, no other program needed. This scene took 5.2 seconds here.
Production
This is where the real work for a furniture maker starts
You are not stuck with ready-made templates. In 🔧 Production you build the cabinet like a master craftsman, part by part; every panel has its own size, material, banding and holes. Every fix you would make in the shop, you make here, so the cut comes out right.

Lesson 3
Build a Cabinet from Scratch: The Panel Palette
Version 0.6
Property Paint and Live Dimensions: Fast Transfer Between Cabinets
Three ways to start a cabinet
- Module Library. Click the yellow + to drop a module in the scene; the cabinet arrives with real panels.
- New Cabinet. Start from an empty carcass, from the quick access bar or by right-clicking empty space in 3D.
- Panel palette. Bottom / top panel, side panel, upright, shelf, back panel, door, plinth, leg. Pick a part, click a face or the floor in 3D: the panel sits right there and its length adjusts to the neighbors.
What you get when you click a panel
The left panel is the job card of the part you picked. The same layout for every part, from side panel to door:
- Size
- Width, height, thickness. It shows in 3D as you type. At the top of the card, the net size and the cut size sit side by side: 2147 × 597 door, cut 2143 × 593 mm.
- Position
- X right, Y up, Z forward. You place the part to the millimeter from its left-bottom-back corner.
- Opening and handle
- On a door, left hinge, right hinge, lift-up door and handle choice are one click away.
- Part properties
- Part exists, Send to cutting: you can keep a part visible and leave it out of the cut. Material: Carcass, Door, Back panel.
- Edge banding
- Right, left, top, bottom: switch each of the four edges on or off. The banding length updates by itself.
- Joint side
- Which broad face gets the cam fitting? For the left, right, bottom and top end, pick the inner or outer face.
- Edge allowance
- Left, right, bottom, top: type it, press Enter. Plus lengthens, minus shortens.
- Cutout and pocket
- Add a round, square or triangular hole or pocket to a panel: socket, cable pass-through, ventilation.
- LED strip
- On the front edge, lengthwise, crosswise. It shows yellow in the drawing; grab it and drag.
Holes open automatically to match the neighboring panels. You build the part, the program works out the joint.

Divide the Inside in One Click: Cell Bar and Cavities
Controls that work like a tool in your hand
Click a part; the ✥ Move, ⟳ Rotate, ⤢ Scale bar and three axis arrows appear. Set the step to 1, 10 or 50, and Snap makes parts seat against each other.
Full control from the keyboard
| W · E · T | Move · Rotate · Scale |
|---|---|
| ← → ↑ ↓ | Moves 1 mm, 10 mm with Shift |
| PageUp · PageDown | Moves forward · backward |
| Shift + drag | Multiplies the step by 10 |
| Alt + drag | Turns Snap off |
| Ctrl + drag | Drops a copy in place |
| Number + Enter | Gives the exact size while pulling a face handle |
| Ctrl+A · Ctrl+G | Selects all · groups |
| Ctrl+Shift+G | Ungroups |
| Ctrl+Z · Esc | Undoes · exits the tool or group |
| Delete · R | Deletes · flips the selected rail horizontal ↔ vertical |
Right-click: a menu that changes with the part
Find what you are looking for without digging through panels. The menu changes with the part you click.
- On a door: Opening, Handle, hinge count.
- On a shelf: Shelf count.
- On every part: Size and position, edge allowance, material, edge banding, cutout / hole and LED, hide, make transparent, copy, export a single part to DXF.
- Cabinet submenu: All the cabinet settings in one place; with ⭐ Add to favorites your own cabinet goes into your library.
Quick cabinet edit
To change the whole cabinet you do not walk through the panels one by one. Select the cabinet and type in the left card:
- Size: Width, carcass height, depth, height from the floor.
- Bottom: Leg, plinth or plinth leg.
- Top: Top panel as one piece, or front + back rail.
- Lower back rail: Double rail on or off.
- Gola: Handleless profile: handled, or J profile on top.

Corner Joints: Butt, Corner Seat, 45° Miter
Groups and 90° rotation balls
You turn a cabinet like lifting it off a shelf, but the cut stays intact.
- Single click selects the whole cabinet; double click goes inside, the panel you click gets selected and everything outside fades.
- Green balls rotate 90° left and right; red balls tilt it back and forward, blue balls lay it on its side.
- 0° ball brings the cabinet back to its upright orientation.
- Doors, drawers, cut list and CNC do not change: only the orientation in the scene changes. Inside a rotated group it shows upright for editing, and returns to its orientation when you exit.
A second master beside you
Open the doors with 🌬️ to see the inner layout, look inside with ◌ X-ray. Before you go to production, the program tells you what you missed:
- ℹ️ Door 2147 × 597 mm: heavy door, 5 hinges or a 22 mm door recommended.
- ℹ️ Side 2132 mm, back panel 8 mm: on a tall carcass add a middle rail or use a thicker back panel.
The hinge count comes automatically from the door height; if you like, you set it yourself with a right-click. If the problem is serious, a ⛔ Production block appears at the CNC step, and no output is made until you say “I saw it”.

Line Up Cabinets in Minutes: The Module Library
Kitchen Plan
Type the measurements, the kitchen lines itself up
Start with the measurements you took at the customer’s home. Straight, L or U; type the walls, the program builds the rest.
Drag, drop
Drag a module onto the wall, type the width and the distance from the left, pick the hinge side. With one click of 🔧 Edit in assembly, jump to Production and go down into its panels.
Top view, section, A4
Top plan, section and elevation are ready. Print an A4 customer sheet with 🖨️ or print to PDF.
When a column touches the carcass, the carcass is notched automatically
Enter the column and beam with Width, Depth, Left offset, Bottom level, Top level and Allowance. A corner column is drawn from above in L and U plans. When a cabinet meets a column, the carcass gets a notch; this cut goes to the CNC and DXF output too. On a module you do not want notched, say “Do not notch for column”.

Studio Render
No need to go anywhere else for rendering
The Render Fun engine is inside the program. Press the Render button at the top and it does the rest: no settings, no export, no second program. The engine works out the scene by itself, cleans the noise, and a customer-ready image comes out.
- Starts by itself. Just open the Render screen.
- 4 studios, HDRI and lighting setups. White, warm, dark: change the setting in one click.
- Eyedropper. Click a surface, change the texture; the choice is written into the design too.
- Catalog (5 angles). Five images with one key; Save Image as PNG.
The scene above was “Ready” in 6–11 seconds on our development machine. The time varies with your graphics card.
Quote and materials
When the customer asks “how much?”, the answer is ready
The moment the design is done, the total comes out by itself: material, hardware, labor and profit, line by line. Because the quote is calculated from the panels you built, not from a guess.
- Unit prices are yours: You enter your own prices in Price Settings.
- Logo and company details: Fill in the customer and quote details, add your logo with 📤.
- The last word is yours: Type the total by hand with ✏️, get a PDF with 🖨️.
- Model step: Material, finish, color and texture, hardware brand, hinge and slide system, handle settings.

Cutting
- Nesting: sheet layout, utilization percentage
- CSV and color cut list
- Offcut sheet stock
Machine
- DXF and per-part DXF (.zip)
