HDB Aluminium Cabinet Singapore
Built for BTO and resale flats across every town in Singapore.
Whether you're furnishing a brand new BTO or renovating a decades-old resale flat, we install waterproof, termite-proof aluminium cabinets across HDB estates islandwide.
BTO vs Resale Flat Cabinetry
The two require different approaches, and it affects both cost and timeline.
BTO Flats
New BTO units typically need finishing and standard cabinet installation without demolition, keeping costs and timelines more predictable. We work directly from your unit's floor plan to plan layouts before key collection where possible.
Resale Flats
Resale flats often involve removing existing cabinets, adjusting for wear on walls and flooring, and sometimes rerouting plumbing or electrical points, which adds labour and material cost compared to a BTO.
Executive Apartments & Maisonettes
Larger HDB unit types need more extensive cabinetry planning, particularly for multi-level maisonettes where storage needs to be distributed sensibly across floors.
HDB Cabinet Cost by Flat Type

What Homeowners Should Know Before Starting
HDB renovation guidelines set specific rules around what can and can't be modified in a flat, particularly around hacking of walls, plumbing changes and electrical work. While cabinet installation itself rarely requires special permits, changes to your kitchen layout that involve moving a sink, gas point or major wiring may need to be flagged to HDB or your renovation contractor beforehand. We help clients understand which parts of their renovation fall into this category during the initial consultation.
Resale flat renovations in particular sometimes uncover issues that weren't visible during viewing, uneven flooring, outdated wiring behind existing cabinets, or plumbing that doesn't match current standards. Building a contingency into your budget, as we discussed in our home renovation guide, is especially relevant for HDB resale purchases where the flat's true condition often only becomes clear once demolition begins.
For BTO flats, the advantage is a blank slate with known, standardised dimensions, which usually means fewer surprises and a more predictable renovation timeline. We can often begin design planning based on your unit's floor plan even before key collection, so fabrication can start as soon as you're able to grant site access.
HDB Aluminium Cabinet FAQs
Yes. BTO flats typically require only finishing and standard installations, while resale flats often need upgrading, demolition or layout changes, which increases labour and material costs.
We serve HDB estates islandwide, including Toa Payoh, Jurong, Woodlands, Tampines, Pasir Ris and all surrounding towns.
We advise on renovation guidelines relevant to your flat type, and can flag where HDB permits may be required for specific works such as hacking or plumbing changes.
Yes, combining kitchen, wardrobe and vanity cabinetry into one project typically works out more cost-effective than commissioning each separately.
How to Start Your HDB Renovation
Whether you're planning ahead for a BTO key collection or ready to renovate a resale flat immediately, the process starts the same way, a free consultation to understand your flat type, scope and timeline. For BTO owners, we can often begin design discussions using your unit's floor plan before you've even collected your keys, so fabrication can start the moment site access is available.
For resale flat owners, we recommend scheduling your site visit as early as possible in your renovation planning, ideally before you've committed to a moving date, so any structural surprises can be factored into your timeline rather than causing delays partway through.
Choosing an Aluminium Cabinet Contractor for Your HDB Flat
HDB renovation is a competitive market, and "aluminium cabinet" gets used as a marketing term by contractors whose actual construction quality varies widely. Ask specifically whether panels are honeycomb-reinforced or standard hollow aluminium sheeting, and whether frames are welded or simply screwed together, these details matter far more to long-term durability than finish or colour.
In-house fabrication versus subcontracted work is also worth asking about directly. We build every cabinet ourselves, which keeps quality control tight and gives you one point of contact if anything needs adjustment after installation.
Finally, request an itemised quotation rather than accepting a lump sum figure. An itemised breakdown lets you see exactly what you're paying for, cabinet construction, hardware, installation, so you can compare quotes on equal terms rather than guessing at what's included.
