German kitchens, fitted in British homes
From mansion flats in Kensington to listed houses in the Cotswolds, we plan each kitchen around the building as it is, with walls that are rarely square. Everything is made in Germany and fitted under a master carpenter's supervision.
What changes when the kitchen crosses a border
- 01
Made for period buildings
Old walls lean and floors fall. We survey with a laser, build scribe allowances into every run and fit the panels on site so the joints stay tight.
- 02
Import handled for you
Since Brexit, furniture from the EU needs customs clearance and import VAT. Our broker files the paperwork so the delivery arrives on the date we agreed.
- 03
Appliances that suit UK supply
UK mains runs at 230 V, so most German built-in appliances work as they are. We give your electrician the circuits and fused spurs to prepare.
- 04
Access planned in advance
In London we plan parking suspensions, lift dimensions and building management rules before the lorry leaves Germany.
Where we plan and install
Each city page explains what we plan for locally: buildings, access, climate and logistics.
