Bespoke Kitchen Units London

London’s housing stock is unlike anywhere else in the UK, and that’s precisely why bespoke kitchen units are so well suited to the capital. From the tall, narrow Victorian terraces of Hackney and Islington to the wide-fronted Edwardian semis of Ealing and the converted Georgian townhouses of Kensington, every kitchen presents its own set of dimensional challenges. Standard off-the-shelf units simply cannot accommodate the chimney breast alcoves, sloping ceilings, or irregular floor plans that are so common in London properties.

At SJB Trade Kitchens, I’m Steve, and I work with our kitchen specialist team to supply bespoke units built to your exact measurements — custom heights, depths, and widths at no extra charge. Whether you’re fitting out a basement kitchen extension in Clapham, a loft conversion in Brixton, or a period property in Richmond, we can supply rigid-built units that fit perfectly and are priced transparently, 30-50% cheaper than Howdens.

Delivery to London typically takes around 10 working days from order confirmation, and our showroom at Unit N, Central Trading Estate, Coulton Close, Oldham, OL1 4EB is roughly a 3.5-hour drive or accessible by train via Manchester Piccadilly. Sample doors can also be posted directly to you.

London has more listed buildings and conservation areas than any other UK city, and homeowners in these properties face strict constraints on what they can and cannot alter. Bespoke kitchen units are often the only practical solution — they can be sized to fit around original features such as exposed brick alcoves, cast-iron radiators, and original sash window reveals without requiring any structural changes.

The capital’s Victorian and Edwardian terraces frequently have kitchens that were added as rear extensions, resulting in rooms with non-standard widths, low ceilings, or sloping rooflines. Our made-to-measure approach means every cabinet is built to the millimetre — not forced into a space with filler panels and awkward gaps.

With 18mm solid backs (not hardboard), Blum soft-close hinges, and Blum Antaro drawers as standard, every unit is built to last in the demanding London property market. Dovetail solid oak drawer boxes are available as a premium upgrade for those seeking a traditional finish in a period home.

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.

From central London, our Oldham showroom is approximately 3.5 hours by road via the M1 and M62, or a straightforward train journey to Manchester Piccadilly followed by a short taxi. You’re welcome to visit in person to see samples, or we can post door samples directly to your London address. Call us on 0161 509 4221 or email info@sjball.uk to arrange.

Can you make bespoke units to fit an alcove in a Victorian terrace in London?

Absolutely. Alcove-fit units are one of the most common requests we receive from London customers. We build to your exact measurements — width, height, and depth — so the units slot perfectly into chimney breast recesses and other period features without filler panels or visible gaps.

How long does delivery take to London?

Delivery to London typically takes around 10 working days from order confirmation. We use a specialist pallet courier service, and our kitchen specialist will confirm the exact delivery window once your order is placed.

Can I visit your showroom from London?

Yes — our showroom at Unit N, Central Trading Estate, Coulton Close, Oldham, OL1 4EB is around 3.5 hours by road or accessible by train via Manchester Piccadilly. Alternatively, we can post door and finish samples directly to your London address so you can assess the quality before ordering.

Do you make bespoke kitchen units for listed buildings in London?

Yes. We regularly supply units to listed properties across the UK, including in London’s conservation areas. Because our units are made to measure and arrive fully assembled, they can be installed without any structural alterations — ideal where planning restrictions apply.

Can you supply bespoke units for a kitchen extension in London?

Yes, kitchen extensions are a speciality. Whether you’re fitting a rear extension in Wandsworth or a side-return in Islington, we can build units to any non-standard dimension — including tall larder units, low-ceiling runs, and island bases — all at the same transparent price.
