Custom Kitchen Solutions for Sussex Homeowners

Sussex — encompassing both East and West Sussex — has one of the most diverse and characterful housing stocks in southern England. From the flint cottages and Regency townhouses of Brighton and Lewes to the Victorian villas of Hove and Worthing, the tile-hung Edwardian houses of Haywards Heath and Horsham, the timber-framed farmhouses of the High Weald, and the coastal properties of Eastbourne and Bexhill, the county’s homes are defined by original features, unusual layouts, and dimensions that standard kitchen cabinets simply cannot accommodate.

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 Regency townhouse in Brighton, a flint cottage in Lewes, or a Victorian villa in Hove, our rigid-built units are made to fit your space precisely and priced transparently — 30-50% cheaper than Howdens.

Our Oldham showroom is approximately 4 hours from Sussex via the M23 and M6. Nationwide delivery is available from as little as 10 working days, and sample doors can be posted directly to your Sussex address.

Why Bespoke Units Are Perfect for Sussex's Regency and Flint Properties

Sussex’s Regency townhouses — particularly in Brighton, Hove, and Lewes — are characterised by tall, narrow rooms, deep alcoves, and original period features that make standard kitchen dimensions a poor fit. The county’s flint cottages, found throughout the South Downs and coastal villages, present even more unusual challenges — with thick flint walls, low ceilings, and irregular floor plans that require a truly made-to-measure approach.

The county’s many listed buildings and conservation areas — particularly in towns like Lewes, Arundel, and Rye — mean that structural alterations are often restricted. Our bespoke units can be fitted around original features without any structural changes, making them ideal for Sussex’s many protected properties.

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.

What You Get with SJB Bespoke Kitchen Units

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.
