4. Order your kitchen
Take some time to consider your options. We encourage you to make a well-informed decision. We also advise you to order your kitchen with the help of our specialists. If you haven't yet, please book an appointment with us. You will also have to decide if you want to have it delivered and installed, or if you prefer to do it all by yourself. We're also here to help if you need the disposal of your current kitchen. The completion duration between ordering and receiving your kitchen depends on many variables (partners' availability need for custom-made products), but you should expect around 10 weeks.

5. Make room for new
Receiving your new kitchen will use up a lot of space. Please secure that the room is as empty and free as possible. The way to the room needs also to be freed up, so that you or the delivery company can carry big furniture or electrical appliances. Of course the same applies to the way to your house or flat: if you have a delivery, the way for the delivery truck needs to be ready.
