Everything you need to specify DNS with confidence. Technical support, detail drawings, material guidance, and constructability review for architects, designers, and specification writers developing a millwork package.

Detail drawings & CAD support

Developing a millwork detail and want it to be buildable the first time? DNS provides typical details, sections, and fabrication-ready drawings for your project type — reception and service counters, casework and cabinetry, wall and panel systems, display fixtures, reveals and edge conditions.

Tell us the project type and we’ll send the relevant detail package.

Specification support — Division 06 40 00

DNS supports specification development for architectural woodwork, including:

• AWI quality grade selection — matching Economy, Custom, or Premium to each application so the spec doesn’t over- or under-build (grades explained)
• Material & finish recommendations — durability, cleanability, fire rating, and lead-time implications (materials library)
• Constructability review — a fabricator’s read on your details before the spec is issued, so buildability problems surface on paper rather than on site
• Budget validation — an early read on whether the spec matches the budget (cost factors)

Pre-tender review

Issuing a millwork tender? Send us the package and we’ll flag gaps that produce non-comparable bids — missing finish schedules, unstated quality grades, undefined installation scope. It costs you nothing and produces tighter bids from every trade that quotes it. (See what belongs in a millwork RFP.)

Material samples

Send your finish schedule or a shortlist and DNS will provide physical samples — veneers, laminates, solid surface, metal finishes, and glass — so the design team can review real material before it’s locked.

Lunch & learn for design studios

DNS offers sessions for architecture and design studios covering millwork constructability, AWI quality grades, material selection, and how fabrication decisions drive budget and schedule. Practical, shop-floor knowledge — not a sales pitch.
