When I had custom cabinets made for my galley kitchen, it took a little over two months for the carpenters to build them.

The time window for making custom cabinets varies according to how many workers are on the job. An efficient two-person shop should be able to build five or six cabinets per day. Some will outsource certain components, such as doors or rails, for greater speed. Regardless, woodworkers or cabinet-makers who know what they’re doing aim to finish build and installation within nine to 12 days. That said, many cabinet makers will give a four- to six-week time estimate because they’re also working on other projects, or they want to give themselves a cushion to complete the job.
This timeframe does not account for the time needed to design, build the quote, and order any special materials.

The time may vary a little between companies, but on average it takes between 12 to 16 weeks for the entire process. This includes concept and design, building and finally the installation.
