Laundry Cabinets in Meridian, Idaho

Laundry Cabinets Options for Meridian Properties

Stack washer surround

A stacked pair needs a 27 to 28 inch wide opening and a finished box around it. We leave airflow and a path for the vent. Uppers over the stack hold detergent. A side broom closet takes the leftover 12 inches. Do not bury the shutoffs.

Folding counter over front-load units

Side-by-side front-loads get a 25 inch deep counter at about 36 inches if you skip a pedestal, or higher if the machines sit on drawers. We build a box that does not rack when someone leans on it. The machines slide out for service. That means a finished look with a removable panel.

Tall broom closet in a mudroom

Many Meridian laundry rooms share a mudroom. A 18 inch tower holds a vacuum, a broom, and hooks. A bench with shoe cubbies is a different box next to it. Same door style as the kitchen if you want the house to match.

Open slat rack over a utility sink

A slatted maple rack over a 24 inch utility sink lets drips fall. The box below is a door, not a drawer, so the trap has room. This is a farm-house leftover in Kuna and Melba more than a south Meridian plat. We still build it when you ask.

How We Handle Laundry Cabinets in Meridian

1. Measure the room, the machines, the vent, and the shutoff box.
2. Decide stack versus side-by-side, and whether a counter sits over the pair.
3. Draw the run so doors clear the machines when they are pulled out 6 inches.
4. Build moisture-resistant cases. Leave access panels at the valves.
5. Set, level, and lag. The machines go back in after the boxes are solid.
6. You test a door swing with a basket in your hand before we leave.

Materials and Methods

Laundry is damp. Plywood cases, a catalyzed finish, and a 1/4 inch back that can take a vent cut. We do not use raw MDF next to a washer pan. Toe-kicks scribe to a sloped floor toward a drain if the room has one.

Laundry wants plywood boxes because of steam. Soft-close hinges. Full-extension slides. 3/4-inch doors. AWI 0641 on custom. KCMA A161.1 on a factory garage of boxes. Moisture-resistant finish. We do not put an unsealed particleboard floor under a utility sink. Scribe to a wavy mud wall. The washer box is a hole we cut after the unit is measured.

Hardware is the same soft-close set as the kitchen if you want a match. Cheaper hinges are fine on a broom closet. A folding counter gets a 3/4 inch plywood substrate and an easy-clean laminate or a hardwood edge. Stone is rare in this room and is a different bid.

Clearance: 1 inch behind a dryer for the vent elbow if the box is tight. We cut that void. The appliance installer sets the machines. We do not.

What Laundry Cabinets Cost in Meridian

Angi's project table lists laundry and mudroom work at $2,000 to $7,500 for 5 to 15 linear feet. HomeGuide's 2026 cabinet guide puts laundry room cabinets at $300 to $2,000 installed as a typical national band. A surround plus a folding counter sits toward the high end.

Room width, stack versus side-by-side, and a utility sink box are the three levers. We quote the wall, not a catalog. (208) 759-1616 is the number.

Laundry rooms in 2000s Meridian plats

Laundry rooms in 2000s Meridian plats are often a closet with a stacked set or a short side-by-side run off the garage. They punish MDF. We keep plywood at the washer pan and an access panel at the valves. Stack surrounds need airflow and a vent elbow void. Side-by-side front-loads need a folding counter that does not rack when someone leans on it. Machine model numbers matter. A top-load lid needs height a front-load does not. We do not slide the washer. The appliance installer does, after the boxes are lagged.

A mudroom that shares the laundry wants a bench and a broom tower more than a folding counter. A 6-foot closet wants the reverse. Vent elbows need an inch. Shutoff boxes need a door, not a sealed panel. We leave both. Laminate on a folding counter is easier to wipe than stone and cheaper to replace if a hose leaks. Stone is still a different bid if you insist.

Eagle custom laundry rooms can take a full wall of closed cabinets, a utility sink box, and matching kitchen shaker doors. Production leftovers in Star, Kuna, and south Meridian take a surround and a shelf, not a magazine scullery. HOA paint packets almost never reach the laundry. Match the kitchen door anyway if the laundry opens to a hall guests see.

Humidity and lint are why we skip raw particleboard floors in the base next to the pan. Soft-close hinges help when hands are full of a basket. Ask for a matching mudroom bench on the same ticket if the garage wall is empty.

Text (208) 759-1616 if the units are stacked or side by side, and the width of the room. A photo of the hookups and the dryer vent helps.
