The in-frame character
Painted Shaker cabinetry, framed with care
Doors sit within a visible face frame, giving the cabinetry its distinctive in-frame character. Traditional British Shaker styling, painted finishes and plain or beaded frame options form the starting point for the design.
We consider the proportions of each run, the relationship between doors and drawers, appliance integration and the finishing details as part of the complete room.
From first survey to final check
A complete design, supply and installation service
Our main in-frame offer brings design, specialist manufacture and installation together. Each kitchen is individually specified and quoted; we do not publish standard prices or offer supply-only kitchens.
Survey and measure
We survey the room, take measurements and discuss how you use the kitchen, the desired style and the practical constraints.
Design the kitchen
We develop the layout and cabinetry design around the room, with consideration for storage, appliances, proportions and day-to-day use.
Technical drawings and specification
The design is developed into full technical drawings and a written specification covering the agreed construction, layout, materials, finishes and fittings.
Your approval before manufacture
You sign off both the drawings and the written specification before manufacture. This confirms exactly what is to be made and installed.
Specialist manufacture
The approved kitchen is manufactured through selected specialist manufacturing partners. Form & Frame coordinates the technical information and agreed specification.
Installation and final quality control
We install the cabinetry, coordinate the agreed worktop and trade stages, adjust the doors and drawers, and complete final quality-control checks with you.
Finishes chosen for the whole room
Painted cabinetry is central to the traditional in-frame offer. Depending on the design and manufacturing specification, we can also explore natural timber or veneer, stained finishes, and matching existing furniture where feasible. Samples, material suitability and the agreed finish are reviewed before sign-off.
Installation-only also available
Already have an in-frame kitchen supplier?
We also install in-frame kitchens manufactured or supplied by other companies. Send the drawings and specification so we can review the construction, fitting requirements and room conditions.
Consistent final adjustment
Inset doors, drawers and finishing pieces are fitted and adjusted to the agreed design and the manufacturer's requirements.
Based in Luton, with selected projects further afield
For in-frame kitchens, we can consider a wider service radius from Luton, including Harpenden, St Albans, Hemel Hempstead, Hitchin, Welwyn Garden City and Milton Keynes where the project size and travel requirements make the work practical. Share your postcode at the enquiry stage so we can confirm suitability.
Frequently asked questions
Before we begin
Can I buy an in-frame kitchen on a supply-only basis?
No. We offer the complete design, supply and installation service, or installation-only for a kitchen supplied by someone else.
What do I approve before manufacture?
You sign off both the full technical drawings and the written specification before manufacture. These record the agreed layout, construction, materials, finishes and fittings.
How much will my in-frame kitchen cost?
Each kitchen is quotation only. The layout, cabinetry specification, finish, worktops and installation scope determine the quotation; there are no published standard prices.
Can you match existing furniture?
Where practical, we can explore matching proportions, painted colours, timber or veneer character and other details. Feasibility depends on the existing furniture and the agreed manufacturing specification.
