Kitchen planning service

Prior to your appointment, you will need to:

• Measure your space - Please measure your space beforehand to ensure that the plans for your kitchen are as accurate as possible.
• Choose your products – Start browsing our kitchen products now to get a better understanding of what you want. Knowing this before the planning session will make it more productive.   

Of course. If you have a design done by yourself in the IKEA Kitchen Planner or from a previous planning appointment our Kitchen specialists can use this during your planning appointment. 

There will be a number of specialists ready to assist you at each stage of your kitchen journey. For example, you may have a Planning Specialist for your at-home, online, or in-store planning appointment, someone to visit your home to measure, a pre-installation visit, and finally an installation team.

In order for your Kitchen Specialist to plan accurately you will need to have your kitchen measurements prior to the planning appointment. You can take these yourself by following our YouTube video or by booking a measuring appointment, see our measuring service page for more details. 

Great that you are ready to purchase your new kitchen. If you require help in placing this order please book another kitchen planning appointment and a Kitchen Specialist will be able to finalise & place this order with you. 

No problem. Your kitchen specialist will contact you a day or so before your in-store appointment. Just let them know you would like to switch, and they will convert your booking to a virtual session and explain the next steps.

^{*We understand that sometimes you need to cancel your appointment. Please try to cancel 24 hours before your time slot, so we can open it for other customers.}
