Does your furniture come assembled?
Most of our furniture comes assembled. Some items require minor assembly. Our beds come in a few large parts that are screwed together using wood screws. Items like our bunk beds and loft beds require more assembly. Local delivery charges include assembly on most items (excluding loft beds and custom work installations). Freight and DHL Ground shipments will come assembled or require assembly on a case by case basis. Call or email if you have a question about specific items.
How does shipping work?
If you choose Local delivery...
Usually, 1-3 days after you place your order, we will email you to inform you of your delivery day. Orders placed on Sundays, when we are out of the office, may take 4 days for updates as we will not see the order until the next morning. The day before delivery, between 3 and 5 in the afternoon, we will email you again to provide a 4 hour timeframe estimate for the next day's delivery.
In order to complete all the deliveries in a timely manner we must follow a logical route. The timeframes are determined by the route. The route depends on the location of all of the deliveries for that day.
If the delivery day will not work for you, you can reschedule the day. We cannot offer a timeframe until the day before, when we have all the relevant information necessary to plan a route.
*Our Local Truck service includes assembly on most items or the items will come already assembled. Please be aware that most of our items come fully assembled. Please make sure that the items you purchase will fit through your doorways, hallways, staircases or any turns without unusual methods such as hoisting or alteration. If you are concerned an item may not fit, please call 888 801 3100 to discuss the options available before we attempt delivery. We are under no obligation to take back furniture because it does not fit, so please select items which will fit.
The basic charge includes delivery inside to Elevator buildings or Walk-up buildings up 1 inside flight of stairs.
What if I live in a 3rd, 4th or 5th floor walkup?
We can deliver to walk-ups above 1 flight of stairs for an additional charge of 10 dollars per flight above 1. For example, you live in our $40 delivery area, you live on the 5th floor, there are 4 flights up to your apartment. Your delivery in this case would cost $40 plus $30 for the three additional flights. You can pay in cash to the drivers or call us to pay with a credit card for additional services. Also, the drivers can leave the items on the 2nd floor if you do not wish to pay for the additional flights. You have to sign the drivers paperwork indicating you accept delivery at a lower floor. If you choose to leave items on the second floor and then change your mind there will be an additional charge to return and carry the items up for you.
DHL Deliveries
When possible, your package can ship via DHL Ground. DHL will not notify you prior to delivery but you should receive an email with tracking information when it ships.
Freight Deliveries
Common carrier truck deliveries are performed by a trucking company we contract on your behalf. The service is a "Tailgate" or "Curbside" Delivery. Many times the driver will bring your new furniture to your doorstep. In rare cases the driver will only move the items to the back of the truck. On large or bulky items such as beds and wardrobes, you will need someone to help move them into your building or residence.
Freight deliveries are to ground floors only. A signature is required at the time of delivery. Common carrier deliveries are only performed Monday through Friday. An appointment by telephone is usually scheduled by the freight company, however it is not guaranteed. Inside delivery can be arranged for additional charges.
Can I get an inside delivery on freight?
Often we can arrange an inside delivery with a common carrier for a fee. Charges and availablity for this service are evaluated on a case by case basis by the freight carrier. Please call us if you need a quote for inside delivery. We will need to know what items you need and the shipping address. Many customers choose to hire local movers or have freinds or neighbors help them move items inside and into place. If possible this tends to be more cost effective.
You may also email your request with this information to info@gothiccabinetcraft.com
Can you ship to APO / FPO addresses?
Sorry, we cannot ship to APO / FPO addresses. Our cartons are too large. You may consider shipping to a friend or relative who can then forward your shipment.

How does financing work at my local store?
Different Gothic Cabinet Craft retail stores may have other financing options available. Please contact your local store for details. Click here for our store list.
Is your stained furniture also sealed?
Our stained finishes are hand sanded, stained, sealed and then a clear coat is applied. We use satin finish lacquer for the clear coat. Natural finish goes through the same process except for the staining, leaving the natural wood color with the protection of sealer and clear lacquer. The backs of items are not finished. On dressers, desks and items with drawers, insides of the drawers will remain unfinished. On cabinets with doors, the insides of the cabinets are finished.
I am planning on changing the knobs, is there anything to be aware of?
Most of our items which have drawer pulls use single hole wooden knobs. If you are planning to change the knobs, please be aware that in many cases you will be limited to single hole hardware. Also, when ordering an item to be finished, please be aware that the hardware is wooden and is stained along with the furniture. If you remove the knobs, there will be no finish behind the knob. If the hardware you will use is smaller than the base of the knob, this can present a problem. For this reason, please notify us that you will use your own knobs when you place your order. Please advise using the Comments Box during checkout so that we may stain the item without the knobs.
Can you customize your furniture?
Yes, We do custom work. We do not alter existing stock items. To change any measurement or component on an item means we will make a new item from scratch. Custom work generally costs more than our low priced stock items. If an item is made to order, we can design it with you from scratch or base it upon one of our pre-existing styles.
If you are interested in custom work, call 1-888-801-3100 or visit your local Gothic Cabinet Craft store to discuss the details of your preferred piece. We can usually get you an accurate estimate within 1 to 2 business days once we have all the details of the item we are pricing.
Custom work usually takes between 5-7 weeks for completion.
Some examples of Custom work we have made are Desks, Platform Beds, Radiator Covers, Bookcases, Wall units, Entertainment Centers, Whole Kitchens, Kitchen Islands, Murphy Beds, Fully furnished rooms, Institutional dormitories, Dining tables, Closets and Wardrobes ETC....
