Trimline Design Center

Trimline Cabinets was started in 1964 in a small warehouse in Hialeah, Florida by our founders, Lester and Kathleen Collins. The cabinetry of Florida at that time was predominately frameless laminated cabinetry with no hardware. The fitting name “Trimline” was coined.

In 1976, with the laminated cabinetry segment becoming increasingly crowded, competitive and quality diminishing to reach lower price points, Lester chose to transition the company into a higher fashion, higher quality operation using manufactured and made-to-order wood cabinetry.

This shift to retail led us to relocate the business to a more consumer friendly location at our present day showroom: Trimline Design Center, 10001 South Dixie Highway, Pinecrest, Florida. Yes, that’s right over 40 years in the same location!
