Supply Only Kitchens Carlisle | SJB Trade Kitchens

Every kitchen we supply is built around rigid-construction carcasses, made from 18mm Egger or Kronospan board with cam and dowel assembly. These are factory-built, fully assembled cabinets — not flat-pack. They arrive ready to install, which makes the fitter’s job faster and easier, and means there’s no risk of a cabinet being assembled incorrectly on site.

One of the things that sets us apart from the big-box retailers is our 18mm backs — not hardboard. Most budget kitchen suppliers use thin hardboard backs to cut costs. Every cabinet we supply has a solid 18mm back, giving the carcass genuine structural rigidity and a far longer lifespan.

All cabinets come fitted with Blum soft-close hinges and Blum Antaro drawer systems as standard. Blum is the gold standard in kitchen hardware — their hinges and drawers carry a lifetime guarantee. This isn’t an upgrade or an optional extra. It comes as standard on every cabinet we supply. If you want to go further, we also offer dovetail solid oak drawer boxes as a premium upgrade.

Doors are available in over 100 styles — gloss, matt, shaker, handleless, painted and more — all made to your exact measurements. If your kitchen has an awkward alcove, a sloping ceiling, or a non-standard dimension, we can accommodate it. Every cabinet is made to the millimetre, not to the nearest standard size. For more detail on our cabinet construction, see our trade kitchen cabinet manufacturer page.

We supply customers across Carlisle and Cumbria, including Penrith, Keswick, Kendal, Workington, Whitehaven, Barrow-in-Furness, Appleby, Brampton and Longtown. Whether you’re renovating a Victorian terrace in Denton Holme, fitting a new kitchen in a new-build in Kingstown, or upgrading a farmhouse kitchen in the Eden Valley, we deliver direct to your door.

Our showroom is in Oldham — Unit N, Central Trading Estate, Coulton Close, OL1 4EB — but we supply the whole of the UK. Every kitchen is carefully packaged and delivered directly to you, with the same personal service and 10-day lead time wherever you are.

Delivery to Carlisle typically takes around 10 working days from order confirmation. Carlisle is further from our Oldham base than most of our North West customers, but our delivery service covers the whole of the UK and the lead time is the same regardless of distance.

Your kitchen arrives on a dedicated delivery vehicle, fully wrapped and labelled by wall run. We deliver across the whole of Cumbria including Penrith, Keswick, Kendal, Workington, and Whitehaven.

Yes, and it’s a growing part of our business. Carlisle sits at the northern gateway to the Lake District, and we regularly supply kitchens for holiday cottages, Airbnbs, and rental properties across Cumbria. Our rigid-built cabinets with Blum soft-close fittings are built to handle the heavy use that holiday lets demand.

Our competitive pricing and 10-day lead time make us a practical choice for property owners who need quality kitchens without the Lake District premium. We can supply multiple kitchens for the same project with coordinated delivery.

Our showroom is in Oldham (Unit N, Central Trading Estate, Coulton Close, OL1 4EB), which is around 2 hours from Carlisle via the M6 and M62. It’s a longer drive than some of our customers, but many Carlisle and Cumbria customers do make the trip to see door samples and drawer mechanisms in person.

If the drive doesn’t suit, we can post door samples directly to you and handle the entire design and ordering process by phone and email. Most of our Cumbria customers order remotely with no showroom visit needed.

Absolutely. Carlisle has a large stock of Victorian terraces, particularly in areas like Denton Holme, Botcherby, and Currock. Many have compact kitchens with non-standard dimensions. Because every cabinet is made to your exact measurements, we can maximise space in a terraced kitchen without the compromises of standard-size units.

Custom sizing is included at no extra charge. A 437mm filler cabinet costs the same as a standard 500mm unit, so you get a perfect fit without paying extra.

Our prices are typically 30-50% lower than what you’d pay at a Carlisle kitchen showroom or through Howdens (via a fitter’s markup). We keep costs down because we’re a kitchen specialist working with our manufacturer, not a retail showroom with expensive overheads.

Every quote is fully itemised and transparent. You see the price of every cabinet, door, hinge, and drawer box. No hidden fees, no design charges, no pressure sales. Email info@sjball.uk or call 0161 509 4221 for a free quote.

Here are a few examples of the kitchens we supply. Every one was designed, quoted and delivered by us — made to the customer’s exact measurements, in their chosen door style, delivered in 10 working days. Carlisle customers have chosen everything from handleless gloss kitchens for modern new-builds to traditional shaker painted kitchens for the Victorian terraces of Denton Holme and Botcherby.

From handleless gloss to shaker painted, from compact galley kitchens to large open-plan spaces — we can accommodate any layout, any size, any style. Browse our full range at our supply only kitchens hub page.
