Lanae’s Free Kitchen Design Service: Step-by-Step Guide

Lanae’s Free Kitchen Design Service: Step-by-Step Guide

Planning a kitchen remodel can feel overwhelming, but Lanae’s free design service is here to make the process simple, clear, and stress-free. Whether you are starting from scratch or refining an existing layout, our design team helps turn your measurements into a functional cabinet plan built around your space.

Below is a step-by-step overview of how Lanae’s free design service works, what to expect, and how to move from design to delivery with confidence.

Step 1: Submit Your Free Design Request

All design requests are submitted through Lanae’s Free Design Submission Form, which can be found directly on our website.

When submitting your request, be sure to include:

Accurate room measurements

Appliance sizes and placement

Notes about doors, windows, cabinet colors/style, or layout preferences

Include any specific feature of your home that would interfere with cabinet placement.

Because Lanae is not physically present at your project location, we rely on customers to provide accurate measurements. Always double-check measurements before submitting, as they are the foundation of your design.

Step 2: Receive Your Design Confirmation Email

After submitting the form, you should receive a confirmation email containing:

A reference number specific to your design

Confirmation that your request has been received and sent to the design team

Important: Please reply to this confirmation email.
Replying lets Lanae know that:

You are receiving our emails

Communication can continue smoothly

If you do not see the confirmation email, please:

Check your spam or junk folder

Contact Lanae so it can be resent

📞 Phone: 877-360-2323

Step 3: Design Communication & Revisions

All communication is handled via email to ensure:

Clear documentation

Accurate tracking of design changes

A reliable reference for previous comments and revisions

If revisions are needed:

Mark up the most recent design

Email it to our customer service team

Include notes explaining the requested changes

This process helps ensure updates are applied correctly and efficiently.

Step 4: Review and Verify Your Design

Before approving your design, please:

Verify all measurements

Review cabinet sizes and placements carefully

If you are working with a contractor or installer, we strongly recommend having them review the design as well. Contractors and installers can help be the final verifiers of measurements and spacing.

Step 5: Request a Quote

Once your design is approved, you may request a quote. Quotes can be provided as:

Estimate Quote: For budgeting and planning

Finalized Quote: Required to complete a purchase

To generate a finalized quote, the following information is needed:

Shipping address

Billing address

This ensures all applicable shipping and delivery costs are accurately included.

Step 6: Approve the Quote and Complete Your Purchase

Carefully review your quote before approval. If working with a contractor or installer, have them review it with you as well.

Once approved:

You may request an e-invoice from one of our team members to complete your purchase

If you choose to place your order directly through the website instead of using the e-invoice, it is important to ensure no items are missed that may not appear on the design, such as:

Side skins

Toe kicks

Moulding

Fillers

Accessories

Step 7: Delivery Lead Times

Delivery times depend on the size and type of order:

FedEx Shipments:
If items are in stock, delivery typically takes 3–5 business days

Freight Orders:
Require a delivery appointment scheduled between the freight carrier and the customer
Delivery typically takes 1.5 to 2 weeks from the time of purchase

It is important to note however that if ordering during the holidays deliver lead times may alter.

Step 8: Installing Your Cabinets

When installing your cabinets:

Keep cabinets in their boxes until ready to build

Be sure to only open and assemble one cabinet at a time

This helps keep your project organized and allows our customer service team to assist more efficiently if questions arise.

Final Step: Share Your Finished Project

Once your kitchen is complete, we would love to see it.
Please take a photo of your finished project and send it to Lanae. Seeing our customers’ completed designs is one of our favorite parts of what we do.
