Every drawer box jointed by hand
Drawers are where cheap cabinets give up first, so ours are solid oak with dovetails at every corner and a base set into a groove. They carry a stack of cast iron pans for decades without the front working loose.
Carcasses are birch plywood rather than particle board, lipped in solid wood and both glued and screwed. Doors are sprayed in a dust controlled booth, so the finish in your kitchen matches the sample door you chose.
- Dovetailed oak drawers on full extension runners
- Birch plywood carcasses, glued and screwed
- Doors sprayed with a hard wearing lacquer
- Every cabinet assembled and checked before delivery
Timbers and painted colours
Sample doors in each finish come with us to the design visit, because paint and timber look different by a north window than under shop lights. Any paint colour can be matched; these are the ones our clients pick most.
Oiled oakWarm, tough and easy to touch up
Smoked oakDeep brown with a soft grey cast
Black walnutRich and dark, made for an island
AshPale, with a lively open grain
Ink blueOur most chosen painted colour
SageSoft green that suits oak worktops
PuttyA warm neutral for boot rooms
Chalk whiteBright without looking clinical
From first sketch to the last hinge adjusted
Most kitchens take ten to fourteen weeks from the design visit to the final day of fitting.
Design visit
We measure the room, check walls, floors and services, and talk through how you cook and what needs a home.
Drawings and price
Plans, elevations and a 3D view arrive within two weeks with a fixed price, and one round of changes is included.
Made at our bench
Once you sign the drawings, cabinets are built, sprayed and dry assembled in the workshop.
Fitted by the makers
The team that built your cabinets fits them, most kitchens in five to eight days, then templates the worktops.
Settling in visit
After a few weeks of use we come back to adjust doors and drawers as the timber settles.
Kitchens and furniture we have made
Recent pieces, photographed once their owners had moved back in and filled the shelves.
Words from our clients (example reviews)
The kitchen has no right angles anywhere, yet every cabinet meets the wall with a fine, even line. The drawings showed exactly how it would look, and it looks exactly like that.
The library wall swallowed three hundred books and the television, and the ladder glides along its rail. The fitters vacuumed every evening before they left.
A clear price and a fitting date that was kept to the day. Months later the drawers still close with one soft push.
Before you order cabinets
How long does a kitchen take?
About two weeks for drawings, six to ten weeks in the workshop, then five to eight days of fitting. Stone worktops are templated once the cabinets are in and fitted about a week later.
Do you supply worktops and appliances?
We make solid timber worktops ourselves and order stone or composite tops from specialist fabricators. Appliances can come from us or from you, as long as we have the model numbers before the drawings are final.
Can you put new doors on our existing cabinets?
Only when the carcasses are sound and square. We look at them during the design visit and tell you plainly whether new doors are worth the money.
Who handles plumbing, gas and electrics?
Qualified trades we work with often, booked by us and shown on the quote. Rules on who may carry out this work vary by country and region, so we use people registered where you live.
What does the design visit cost?
The visit is $120, and that amount comes off the price when you place the order. It covers measuring, a talk about how you use the room and sample doors in the finishes you like.
How are payments arranged?
A 40% deposit when the drawings are signed, then the balance in two parts, on delivery and when fitting is complete. Payment is arranged directly with us.
Book a design visit
Describe the room, the things that need a home and roughly when you hope to start. Expect an answer within two working days with a few possible visit dates.
