Farragut resident Mark Wipper, franchise owner/manager of Cabinet IQ is hoping to open his new business in March or April 2026 in Turkey Creek
Turkey Creek shoppers are seeing the sign of a new business coming this spring.
Cabinet IQ is making its move into 11623 Parkside Drive with hopes to open in the March, April time frame, according to franchise owner/manager Matt Wipper of Farragut.
“There are probably more than 40 Cabinet IQ locations right now,” he said. “Construction is moving along.
“We’re doing home visits now, going out to people’s houses, doing design consultations,” Wipper said. “We bring samples and all that out to their houses.
“We primarily do cabinets and countertops for kitchens. We can do laundry rooms, bathroom vanities,
any entertainment areas, offices, basically any space that could need cabinets,” he said. “Right now, we’re doing a few new construction projects.”
But, he added his company also provides cabinets for existing homeowners in a remodel.
Wipper said the cabinets are better fit for residential, since commercial cabinets are typically made of a laminate material, but “we can put them in commercial [spaces].”
Cabinet IQ has nine different cabinet lines and one outdoor cabinet line.
“So, we can do cabinets that grills sit in for outdoor entertaining,” Wipper said.
“There are a range of styles and prices, so we can fit a lot of different budgets and a lot of different style design choices that people might like, all the way from solid wood, standard kitchen cabinets to one cabinet line that actually has a leather front doors — up to high-end finishes,” he added.
The wood finishes range from maple, cherry, oak, hickory, cornerstone oak and red oak, among others.
“And, we have a lot of painted styles,” Wipper said. “A lot of times with painted styles, you can do an MDF door with a good paint finish.”
Additionally, “we have metal doors,” he said. “We can also do custom colors, so if there’s a Sherwin Williams color you really like, we can do a custom color on the cabinets.”
“We also can stain any kind of wood to look pretty much any way,” Wipper said.
Cabinet IQ also has a wide range of door styles, from simple slab to raised panel.
“We can pretty much accommodate any door style or color option that anybody might like,” he said.
