Take your kitchen from wonderful to wow!

Enhance your style with uniform cover panels, decorative strips, legs and plinths.

Cover panels for a smooth look

Cover panels cover up any unfinished parts of your cabinets. They can also help conceal the way that they’re put together, or hide any odd gaps, to give everything a clean, unified look. For every style of kitchen front in our range, there’s a cover panel that works – exposed sides can match your doors and drawers exactly, or you can pick a contrasting panel for a designer twist. They come in lots of sizes and can be trimmed to fit, so it’s easy to fit them into any layout, whatever colour, texture, or finish you’ve chosen.

Deco strips – enhance the style and hide the lighting

Deco strips are neat little helpers. Use them to tie your style together, hide lighting or just as a decorative element. They come in designs to suit any taste: profiled for a traditional feel, plain and unadorned for a modern look. Match them to your kitchen fronts and you’ll get one consistent style from end to end.

Lighting – for work and ambience

Good lighting is key to a pleasant and well-functioning kitchen. Ambient lighting sets the mood, and it’s an extra plus if you can dim it to suit the time of day. Worktop lighting, or task lighting, brightens up your worktops, making it easier to prep food and find the kitchen items you need. If your kitchen has glass-door cabinets or open shelves, LED lights can turn them into display cases for your favourite dinnerware, making it easier to find what you need while adding to the ambience.

Plinths and legs – to finish it all off

Every base cabinet needs legs, and you can choose to hide them behind plinths (also known as kickboards) for a uniform look, or go for decorative models that enhance the style of your kitchen. Choose between a regular or a decorative plinth to cover the gap between your cabinet and the floor. Go for warm wood, or practical plastic that’s durable and water-resistant – perfect for a hard-working kitchen. Simple touches, big payoff: mix and match what suits your style and enjoy a kitchen that looks as good as it works.
