My new client wants me to build this shelving display system in the hallway of his new condo. The problem is only have two weeks to build it and I'm already working on another job. So I'm hoping to get some clues in terms of another company that can build this for me while I'm working on the other site. Ideas welcome

Any cabinet shop can build modular units for you to install. The biggest issue is going to be the time element. Any good cabinet shop is probably already busy and 2 weeks just ain't gonna work. But with a modular build, you could install and trim in 2 days, finish out if paint, could be 1 day if pre-primed. Stained, add another day at least. So even going modular only gives you 1 week for a cabinet shop build. I don't see it happening but it's not totally impossible.

If you're really crunched for time, consider buy some stock base kitchen cabinets, tie them together with the counter top, and then build the shelving on top of that.

Places like Office Depot and Staples sell some nice RTA hardwood bookcases that could fit in as the upper units. I don't mean the cheapo particle board crap, but nice oak, maple, etc., though they are pretty pricey.

Ive finally got to the point where I'm putting together the lower part of the cabinet system which has four cabinets. Is it always necessary to build a base beneath the cabinets? Or is it a really good idea and good general practice? I don't think I'm installing any base molding at the bottom.
