3. Warranty
Casework
Hamilton Sorter Casework offers a
Limited Lifetime Warranty.
Millwork
90 Days – 1 Year.

4. Modularity
Casework
Floor cabinets are set in place and
wall cabinets are hung on wall with
rail mounting system. This method
of installation allows cabinets to be
re-configured with little to no
disruption to the building.
Cam and Pin assembly allows for
individual cabinets to be changed
and also to be repaired on-site.
Foot levelers are standard on all
Hamilton Sorter bases.
Millwork
Cabinets are ganged together and
blocking is necessary. Cabinets are
permanently anchored to building.
Wood shims are used to level
cabinets on-site.

5. Consistent Quality
Casework
Manufactured product produced on
CNC equipment in a state of the art
facility located in Fairfield, Ohio.
Millwork
Manufacturing and construction
standards vary from millworker to
millworker resulting in inconsistent
product quality.

6. Board
Casework
Hamilton Sorter uses a ¾” thick
multi-density board that is ANSI-M2
rated.
Each board is finished on all sides
with the same grade of laminate
leaving no exposed wood. A 2 mm
PVC edge band covers all edges.
Millwork
Millwork traditionally uses a ½” thick
particle board and only finishes
exposed surfaces. Frequently, ¼”
filler boards will be used on cabinet
backs and drawer bottoms.
Cabinets are typically finished with
LPL interior with an HPL exterior. A
self-adhesive edge band is used
only on exposed edges.

7. Finishes
Casework
Standard Laminate Offering: HPL
Laminates, LPL Laminates,
Melamine or Thermofoil.
Millwork
Thermofoil is not a typical standard.

8. Design
Casework
Hamilton Sorter has complete
custom capabilities and a design
team that will help design and
specify product to ensure integrity of
design from concept to installation.
Plans are designed in AutoCAD and
Revit Autodesk and archived so that
additions or reproductions may be
handled with ease.
Millwork
Architects and Designers are
responsible for creating design and
specifications. In some
circumstances millworkers will take
liberty with original design to cut
costs.
Additions or reproductions are often
not an option because the millworker
does not maintain a relationship with
the end user after the installation.

9. Installation
Casework
Cabinets are delivered completely
assembled and set in place.
Installation time is drastically
reduced.
Millwork
Typically built on-site which results
in a longer installation time.

10. Green
Casework
GREENGUARD Children & Schools
Certified and contains 95% recycled
and recovered postindustrial/pre-
consumer waste.
Meet and exceed requirements for
LEED-CI and LEED for Schools.
FSC Certification is available.
Millwork
Materials and construction vary from
millworker to millworker. In the
event of change or renovation, the
millwork generally ends up in a
landfill.

11. Depreciation
Casework
7 year MACRS rules.
Millwork
31 years.
