The design of a kitchen is complex. While there are many minor items in your kitchen to note, don't ignore a sizable portion of the space—your kitchen cabinets. When every kitchen company claims to be the best provider of handmade, bespoke kitchens, which do you choose, and which one is best for your budget? Before you make the important decision to install new cabinets, be certain that you're mindful of the many types of cabinets because all of them are lovely choices.

Here, we tell you more about the styles and variations of each design.

In-Frame Cabinets

Shaker Cabinets

• Simple and versatile design

• Square edge panel

• A popular and timeless classic

• Square framed doors Flat centre panels

Shaker cabinets are known for their square edges or box-shaped appearance. The appearance is that of a four-cornered cabinet frame but with an inset panel. Historically, Shaker design door & drawer fronts date back to the mid-18th century and are the embodiment of simplicity, combined with fine craftsmanship and functionality. Shaker kitchen doors use the built ‘in-frame’ method. Where the doors hang inside a frame instead of hanging on the outside like modern flat-packed kitchen units.

Period English

• Classic thumb mould

• Shaker panelling

• Bead on top and bottom edges

• Pairs well with the Ogee Cornice

• Grove top and bottom on flat drawers

All Period English units are built in the in-frame style. Like Shaker, the doors are hung inside a frame rather than on the outside of the cabinets. Bringing together timeless design and the finest craftsmanship, the Period English collection is defined by a classic thumb mould around the panelled doors and drawer fronts and a bead running the length of the top and bottom edges of the top drawers. Traditional techniques like the Mortise and tenon joint, solid steel butt hinges and dovetail drawers add strength to our handmade units and make them traditionally authentic.
