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.

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.

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.

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 kick boards) for a uniform look, or go for decorative models that enhance the style of your kitchen.
