ABOUT
US
Celebrating
over 45 years of service to Marin and surrounding counties. Jim
Keith and wife, Margaret, founded Aurora in 1961. Known then by
the name of "Aurora Plastics" the company originally
started as a plastic laminate countertop fabrication shop, but
grew to include many other products.
In
1965 a well-known contractor in Marin, Johnny Riberio, approached
Jim to start the fabrication of cabinets. He needed someone to
build quality cabinet in a timely manner and Aurora would be just
that, and still is today. When Corian was introduced to the market
in the early 70s we were one of the first fabrication shops. Now,
Aurora is known for not just plastic laminate countertops, so
we decided to change our name in 1989 to Aurora Cabinets &
Countertops, Inc. Plastic no longer had the same meaning in our
market today as it did in 1961.
In
1990, when the recession hit, we once again had to change with
the time. We added a showroom and became a factory direct dealer
for several lines of cabinetry. Now we have the ability to service
anyone. At Aurora we give our customers the best quality and value
for their dollar, and individualized service. Our customers become
our extended family.
In
1993 the second generation was to following Jim's footsteps. Daughter,
Donna, who came back in 1987 to help with the bookkeeping and
son, Marty, who returned after college in 1989, to work in the
cabinet fabrication shop, are now the proud owners of Aurora.
If you ask us how long we have been with the company, our reply
will be, "all of our lives, we grew up here."
