Materials

All of our furniture is handmade from excellent quality wood.

Door Materials

Painted doors are made from solid hardwood for strength or we can make doors out of any wood depending on the look you are trying to achieve and availability.  We would recommend woods such as Tulipwood (Poplar), Maple, Oak, Cherry, Walnut or Beech:

It should be noted that wood colours and graining vary.  We select the best looking hardwoods for your furniture.  If you would like to personally select your wood then you are welcome to visit us or even our wood supplier!

For our painted units we only use hardwood for the door rails and for the frames of our framed kitchens.  We generally use Oak but if you want a smooth paint finish with no grain showing through then we use Tulipwood.

Cabinet Materials

All of our cabinets are made with 18mm thick sheet material.  The standard material we use is 18mm Solid Hardwood Birch Ply.  This material is ideal for painting or we like to wax or lacquer it as it looks so good.  Our cabinet back panels are made from 12mm material.

An alternative option, but one that gives amazing results are hardwood veneer MDF carcasses. The veneer is a layer of real hardwood to match your doors backed onto MDF.  This option works really well with dresser, wall, open and glazed units.

We can also make the cabinets from Melamine Faced Chipboard (MFC) and can be supplied in white or with a melamine veneer to match your doors.  The melamine is very easy to keep clean.

Drawer Materials

Our drawers are made from hardwood timber dovetailed front and back with a strong bottom.

Our drawers use quality Blum runners which are fully extending, self and soft closing.
