Columbia, MD – November 21, 2025 – PRESSADVANTAGE –
In Stock Today Cabinets LLC, a Mid-Atlantic cabinetry distributor reports sustained demand for grey shaker-style cabinetry as Maryland homeowners navigate rising renovation costs while seeking sophisticated design solutions. The company has documented consistent requests for ready-to-assemble grey cabinet options, particularly as kitchen remodeling costs in Maryland average $22,253 with ranges extending from $7,912 to $197,800.
The trend aligns with broader market dynamics showing the global ready-to-assemble furniture sector projected to reach $20.3 billion by 2032, growing at a compound annual rate of 6.2 percent. For Columbia and Howard County residents, RTA Shaker Grey Cabinets offer a practical solution that balances aesthetic preferences with budget considerations, delivering approximately 30 to 50 percent cost savings compared to pre-assembled alternatives.
“Our Columbia showroom serves homeowners throughout Howard County, including Ellicott City, Clarksville, and the greater Baltimore-Washington corridor. Over the past year, we’ve documented consistent requests for grey shaker cabinets in RTA format—particularly Fabuwood’s Galaxy Horizon and Nickel collections,” said Emin Halac, spokesperson for In Stock Today Cabinets. “These homeowners value the sophisticated neutral aesthetic grey provides while achieving 40 percent cost savings through RTA assembly. The data indicates Columbia-area families increasingly prioritize both quality and budget in renovation decisions.”
The preference for grey cabinetry persists despite industry reports from the National Kitchen & Bath Association indicating movement toward warmer neutrals. Grey shaker styles maintain their appeal through versatility and compatibility with diverse design approaches, from contemporary to transitional aesthetics. The timeless shaker profile, with its 250-year design heritage, continues to rank as the most requested cabinet style among Maryland homeowners.
ffaColumbia’s market, with median household incomes above state averages, drives demand for cost-effective renovation solutions. Kitchen Cabinets in grey tones particularly resonate with homeowners seeking to enhance property values in Howard County’s active real estate market.
The Fabuwood collections available through In Stock Today Cabinets feature KCMA certification, solid wood construction, dovetail drawers, and Blum soft-close hardware. Unit pricing typically ranges from $200 to $600 in ready-to-assemble format, enabling homeowners to achieve professional-grade kitchen renovations within Maryland’s average project budgets.
“Grey shaker cabinets are adaptable to Columbia’s diverse housing stock—from townhomes to single-family colonials. Industry designers note the style commonly pairs with white quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances for contemporary aesthetics, or with natural wood flooring for transitional styles.” added Halac. “The RTA format means Columbia and Ellicott City homeowners can complete installations efficiently, crucial when coordinating around busy family schedules.”
The trend toward grey RTA cabinetry reflects broader shifts in Maryland’s renovation market, where installation flexibility and cost control increasingly influence purchasing decisions. Industry data suggests this preference will continue through 2025 as material costs remain elevated.
