Recommendations for sollid wood kitchens in the UK (££ not £££)!
Comments (1)Perhaps an independent kitchen showroom can suggest some compromises that will help achieve the look on a budget. Perhaps different worktop alternatives or a painted wood effect .......I guess it will also depend on the number of cabinets you will need too...See Morefrom this...to this stunning kitchen! how does it all come together?
Comments (0)we have recently installed the stunning 1909 range in our leyland showroom and thought i'd share these shots of the progress showing how the kitchen all comes together. the 1909 range is quintessentially british with a timeless feel, crafted with meticulous attention to detail, a classic in-frame kitchen: shaker style or contemporary slab. the surfaces add texture and a bespoke look with three different sizes, in 40mm, 60mm and the wood in 80mm. the range has 32 carefully selected colours and our display captures the popular graphite and cashmere subtle tones with a splash of colour for personality in the island in spearmint. here we go, from this... to this gorgeous 1909 timeless kitchen... how did we get there... units coming together... appliances going in... corian work-surface being installed and solid wood breakfast bar... some finishing touches, hinge adjusting, doors aligning... accessories added... everything in... featured extras... elica "pearl" extractor, dupont corian surface, kessebohmer clever storage, 1901 handles, perrin & rowe tap, fisher & pakel oven & hob finished with lighting from sensio all designed, supplied and installed by us, kitchenflair preston www.kitchenflairuk.com...See Moreinframe shaker with a SMOOTH painted finish, any 1909 alternatives??
Comments (2)Marpatt, who I deal with a lot have a smooth shaker in frame door called the Henley, this is a lime wood framed door with a veneered center panel, lime wood is known for its smooth finish and is ideal for being painted. Marpatt have a showroom attached to their factory in Leicester and allow customer visits by appointment. They are a trade only supplier though but I can arrange for a visit. I supply kitchens nationally so if you'd like further information or a quote based on your current design just msg me on Houzz or through my website....See MoreNeptune, 1909 or Harvey Jones kitchens
Comments (15)@margretg2 This is true that the majority of shaker kitchen doors have a solid timber frame, if its painted than its usually an ash frame, but the centre panel is an oak or ash veneer. This is because the panel is thinner and if it was a solid timber it could be prone to movement so being a veneered mdf or chipboard means a more stable door. Neptune use a hardwood ply for their centre panels (according to their brochure-also in their brochure they say that they've moved some of their production to a purpose built facility in China) Other factors to look for in a quality shaker frame is along the tenon joints, a cheaper door has a V groove along the joint as this masks any assembly defects and any hairline cracks due to movement that may appear over time. A smooth tenon joint is completely flat/smooth and can be reinforced with dowels to help prevent any later movement. Also consider with timber is how the log is cut. There's 3 main ways timber is cut for furniture. The cheapest timber cut is plainsawn and has the cathedral arch characteristics and is just slices along the length of the log, this is more prone to movement/splitting (but is used with walnut to display the natural woodgrain). Quarter sawn (traditional and modern cut) is a more expensive way to cut logs but is ideal for oak giving a straight grain and is used for quality furniture especially if its to be lacquered. Finally there's rift sawn which is the most expensive cut and characterized for its clean sleek lines....See Moreluflo
