the story of Plain & Fancy Custom Cabinetry
1968: How it began.

Over 35 years ago, Plain & Fancy founder John Achey’s hobby was making cabinets... handcrafted, hand rubbed, extraordinarily handsome cabinets. The kind he’d be proud to have in his own home. In 1968, his “hobby” turned into the pursuit of a dream when John, his wife, Loretta, and just four “employees” – their kids – began building cabinetry in their Richland, Pennsylvania garage. One of America’s most sought after custom cabinetry brands was born. It was named, quite simply, for the cabinets they made... plain ones and fancy ones.
