Simple Shaker In-Frame Kitchens

Simple Shaker In-Frame Kitchens

The Simple range is our cleanest in-frame Shaker design. Its plain frame creates a calm, balanced look that works in contemporary extensions, period properties and traditional family kitchens alike.

Without a moulded edge around the frame, the design lets the proportions, paint colour, handles and room architecture do the talking. Optional beadings can still be added to the Shaker centre panel when you want a little more detail.

Optional centre-panel beadings

The plain frame can be paired with one of four optional centre-panel beadings. This is a useful way to keep the overall design restrained while adding a small furniture detail to the door itself.

Standard sizes and bespoke options

Our broad standard cabinet range covers most kitchen layouts and keeps pricing transparent. If a standard size does not work, we can quote for altered dimensions or a made-to-measure cabinet. Combining standard and bespoke pieces is often the most cost-effective way to create a kitchen that fits the room properly.

Flat packed or fully assembled

Choose flat pack to save the workshop assembly cost or select fully assembled cabinetry to reduce work on site. Both routes use the same visible materials and create the same finished appearance. Our DIY and flat-pack guide explains the construction and tools required.

Paint and finishing

The interiors are lacquered and ready to use. Exterior frames, doors and visible components are supplied primed so that your chosen decorator or fitter can complete the final finish after installation. This makes it easier to achieve a consistent colour across cabinets, panels, plinth and finishing pieces.

Frequently asked questions

Is Simple Shaker an in-frame kitchen?

Yes. The door and drawer fronts sit within the cabinet face frame.

Is Simple only suitable for modern kitchens?

No. The restrained frame works well in both modern and traditional interiors. Paint colour, handles, worktops and surrounding details will strongly influence the final character.

Can I add beading later?

Beading should be specified when the doors are ordered so the correct components can be prepared for your kitchen.

Can I see the range before ordering?

Yes. Visit our showrooms or contact us to check the displays and samples currently available.
