Millworks
About Us
Every piece of cabinetry is designed and built with a commitment to craftsmanship, quality, and customization. We use only premium-grade materials and can craft cabinetry from virtually any wood species, giving you unmatched flexibility and long-lasting durability. Our in-house design team develops detailed renderings and full blueprints so every detail is thoughtfully planned before a single board is cut. Using precision CNC technology alongside traditional woodworking techniques, our skilled craftsmen create millwork that is both beautiful and built to last. Because we handle the entire process, from design and fabrication to finishing and installation, under one roof, we maintain consistent quality and a seamless experience from start to finish. Each project is custom-built for your space, with no fillers or shortcuts, ensuring your millwork fits your home or business perfectly. Proudly serving Stillwater and communities across Oklahoma since 2002, McKee has been trusted for over 20 years to deliver exceptional craftsmanship.
Understanding Wood Species and Stain
Maple has a very smooth and subtle grain pattern. The grain lines are soft and consistent, which makes it ideal for painted finishes or stains where you want a clean, uniform look without a lot of visual texture.
Maple
White oak has a straight, linear grain pattern that is slightly more pronounced than maple but more refined than red oak. It provides a modern, natural wood look that is especially popular in contemporary and Scandinavian-inspired spaces.
White Oak
Walnut features a rich, flowing grain pattern with natural variation in tone. Its darker base color and dramatic grain create a luxurious and high-end appearance even before stain is applied.
Walnut
Alder has a soft, slightly rustic grain with natural variations and occasional knots. It creates a warm, organic look that works well in rustic, farmhouse, or transitional designs.
Alder
Red oak has a strong, open grain pattern with visible lines and texture. The grain is bold and pronounced, which gives cabinetry a traditional, classic appearance and allows the wood character to stand out through the stain.
Red Oak
We use maple for paint-grade cabinetry because it has a very smooth and subtle grain pattern. This allows the painted finish to appear clean and uniform, with little to no wood texture showing through the paint.
Paint Grade Maple
Our cabinetry can be stained in a wide range of colors to match your design preferences. While the stain color itself can vary from light natural tones to deep, rich finishes, the natural grain pattern of the wood species will always remain unique. This means the same stain applied to different woods will still look slightly different because each species absorbs stain differently and has its own distinctive grain. Choosing a wood species is less about the stain color and more about the character of the grain you want to see in your cabinetry.
