Bespoke Kitchen Units Edinburgh

Edinburgh’s housing stock is among the most architecturally significant in the UK. The Georgian New Town — a UNESCO World Heritage Site — is characterised by grand tenement flats and townhouses with high ceilings, deep alcoves, and original period features that make standard kitchen cabinets a poor fit. The Victorian tenements of Marchmont, Bruntsfield, and Morningside present their own challenges, with narrow kitchen spaces, stone walls, and non-standard dimensions that require a made-to-measure approach.

At SJB Trade Kitchens, I supply bespoke kitchen units built to your exact measurements — custom heights, depths, and widths at no extra charge. Whether you’re fitting a kitchen in a New Town flat, a Marchmont tenement, or a modern extension in Corstorphine, our rigid-built units are made to fit your space precisely and priced transparently — 30-50% cheaper than Howdens.

Our Oldham showroom is approximately 3.5 hours from Edinburgh via the A74(M) and M6. Nationwide delivery is available from as little as 10 working days, and sample doors can be posted directly to your Edinburgh address.

Edinburgh’s tenement flats — particularly in the New Town, Marchmont, and Stockbridge — are frequently listed or within conservation areas, and their kitchens often occupy spaces that were never originally designed as kitchens. High ceilings, stone walls, deep alcoves, and irregular floor plans are the norm, and standard cabinet dimensions simply cannot accommodate these conditions.

The city’s Victorian tenements in areas like Leith, Gorgie, and Dalry often have narrow kitchen spaces with limited natural light and non-standard ceiling heights. Bespoke units built to the exact dimensions of the available space — including tall larder units that make the most of high ceilings — are the only way to maximise these challenging spaces.

With 18mm solid backs, Blum soft-close hardware as standard, and optional dovetail solid oak drawer boxes for period properties, every unit is built to last. Rigid construction — not flat-pack — means your kitchen arrives fully assembled and ready to install.

Every unit features 18mm Egger or Kronospan carcasses with solid 18mm backs — not cheap hardboard — making each cabinet genuinely sturdy and built to last. Blum soft-close hinges and Blum Antaro drawer boxes come as standard on every order, so your kitchen feels smooth and quiet from day one.

For a premium upgrade, dovetail solid oak drawer boxes are available, adding a traditional craftsmanship touch that looks exceptional in period and listed properties alike. All units are rigidly constructed — not flat-pack — and arrive fully assembled, ready to install.

We offer made-to-measure units with custom heights, widths, and depths at no extra charge. Choose from over 300 MFC finishes for the carcasses, with door styles including Painted Shaker in solid wood, Gloss or Matt Handleless, and Shaker Foil. Our kitchen specialist works with our manufacturer to ensure every order meets your exact specification, supplied direct with transparent pricing — 30-50% cheaper than Howdens, all year round.

Six main door ranges are available, each in a wide selection of colours and finishes. Click any image below to see the full range.
