When you’re looking to elevate a space – whether it’s a luxury apartment on the Upper East Side or a commercial space in the heart of Midtown Manhattan – custom millwork makes all the difference. But it’s not just about design; it’s about choosing a partner who understands the intricacies of craftsmanship, precision, and vision. That’s where New York Custom Interior Millwork (NYCIM) excels.
With decades of experience crafting bespoke millwork solutions throughout New York City, NYCIM has become the trusted name for both residential and commercial interior millwork. From classic restaurants like Smith & Wollensky to modern hotels and brownstones, NYCIM blends timeless style with cutting-edge fabrication to transform every corner into something extraordinary.
Expertise in Residential and Commercial Millwork
Whether you’re remodeling your kitchen or developing a hospitality venue, you need a millwork team that understands the nuances of your space. NYCIM offers custom millwork for high-end residences, luxury hotels, upscale restaurants, and boutique retail spaces.
From apartment cabinetry to large-scale bar backs, we create custom millwork solutions that elevate every space. Our team works closely with homeowners, interior designers, contractors, and architects to deliver millwork that’s not only stunning, but also functional and tailored to each client’s lifestyle or brand.
Truly Custom Design With Endless Options
Every project starts with a consultation, and it’s during this phase that the NYCIM difference really shines. Clients are invited to explore our wide range of finishes, materials, and styles – from rich mahogany and white oak to sustainable bamboo and antique mirror accents.
We provide wood samples, finish options, and in-house design assistance to ensure your millwork reflects your unique taste and needs. Whether you’re creating a contemporary built-in entertainment center, a traditional kitchen with crown molding, or a commercial reception desk with integrated storage, our capabilities are as limitless as your imagination.
A Full-Service Millwork Partner
Unlike companies that only fabricate or only install, NYCIM manages the full lifecycle of each project. We begin with detailed in-house shop drawings, then fabricate every piece at our Astoria production facility. Our installation team ensures a seamless process, arriving on time and leaving behind nothing but perfection.
This full-service approach allows for tight quality control, accurate planning, and a streamlined client experience – critical in fast-paced New York City construction timelines.
Unmatched Craftsmanship and Quality
At NYCIM, quality is never compromised. Our millworkers are masters of their craft, combining traditional techniques with modern technology to achieve precise results. Every joint, edge, and finish is inspected by hand – and personally approved by our founder, Elizabeth Lagos-Molinari, before it leaves our facility.
Whether we’re building a custom walnut wall paneling system for a hotel lobby or intricate cabinetry for a luxury residence, we bring the same passion and precision to every square inch.
A Portfolio That Speaks for Itself
Our work is found across some of the most iconic spaces in New York:
At Smith & Wollensky, we fabricated and installed mahogany bar tops, storage cabinets, and detailed paneling throughout the two-story steakhouse.
At Tavern on the Green, we replicated historic ceiling beams and created custom wainscoting and paneling that honored the landmark’s legacy.
At the Knickerbocker Hotel, our white oak wall panels, curved bar construction, and custom vanities helped define the hotel’s modern-meets-classic aesthetic.
From hotel renovations and restaurant interiors to townhomes and luxury apartments, we take on every project with creativity, integrity, and attention to detail.
Timeliness and Professionalism
New York is a city that never sleeps, and neither does the construction industry. That’s why we pride ourselves on fast, reliable turnaround times without compromising quality. Our detailed proposals, responsive communication, and accurate timelines make NYCIM one of the most dependable millwork companies in the city.
We understand the importance of meeting deadlines in both commercial and residential construction. Our team stays agile to adapt to any challenges that arise, keeping your project moving and your goals intact.
Woman-Led, Family-Grown, and Client-Focused
Founded by Elizabeth Lagos-Molinari, NYCIM is proudly woman-owned and family-run. Elizabeth grew up in the business, learning the trade from her father, and she continues to lead with the same passion, drive, and standards he instilled.
Every project we take on benefits from her hands-on approach and her deep knowledge of both design and fabrication. Whether you’re a developer looking to build out a new hotel or a homeowner renovating your kitchen, Elizabeth and the NYCIM team ensure your project is treated like the only one on our plate.
A Partner for Every Style and Scale
No two projects are alike – and that’s exactly how we like it. Whether your design leans modern and minimal or rich and traditional, NYCIM has the materials, knowledge, and design savvy to meet your vision. We thrive on versatility and collaboration, helping our clients bring creative ideas to life with high-end millwork that performs as beautifully as it looks.
From single-room home renovations to large-scale commercial interiors, our goal is always the same: to create memorable, functional, and timeless spaces that our clients are proud to share.
