Form & Frame is an independent installer. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by or an approved installer for IKEA. The supplier name identifies kitchens we can install; it does not imply a commercial relationship.
Before installation begins
Planning a IKEA kitchen fit
Send the kitchen plan, order or component information, appliance details, worktop specification and photographs of the room. We use the actual project information to establish the fitting sequence, identify preparation requirements and confirm what should be included in the quotation.
From preparation to finishing
A complete installation, carefully coordinated
More than cabinet assembly: we agree the complete project scope and coordinate the sequence, with one point of contact from preparation through to final checks. Your quotation identifies what Form & Frame will complete and what needs an appropriately qualified specialist.
Fit the cabinetry
Assembly where needed, cabinet installation, accurate levelling and alignment, followed by panels, fillers, scribes, plinths and final door and drawer adjustment.
Worktops and appliances
Laminate and solid timber worktop fitting, routed joints and sink and hob cut-outs, plus appliance positioning and integration. Specialist worktops are coordinated as required.
Coordinate and finish
Agreed flooring, tiling, basic making good and decoration. Electrical and gas connections are coordinated with appropriately qualified tradespeople where required.
Old-kitchen removal, room preparation, cabinets, panels, fillers, plinths, worktops, appliance positioning, flooring and making good can all be considered when the project is scoped. Gas and electrical connections are coordinated with appropriately qualified trades where required.
The details that guide the fit
IKEA installation considerations
METOD rails and cabinet alignment
METOD uses a suspension-rail approach to cabinet installation. We check the room, wall construction and fixing requirements, then establish the rail positions and levels in line with the current instructions for the planned layout.
Flat-pack assembly and finishing
Cabinet assembly is part of the installation scope. We also allow for fillers, cover panels and plinths, with careful setting out so drawers, doors and adjacent surfaces align across the finished kitchen.
Appliances and worktops as one plan
Integrated appliances, their door arrangements and the specified worktop need to be considered together. We check product instructions, clearances and service positions against the plan before fitting and final adjustment.
From your plan to installation
Send your plan
Send the kitchen plan, postcode, room photographs, appliance details and approximate installation date.
Initial scope review

Home visit
If the initial scope works for you, we visit the property to confirm site conditions, access, preparation and final requirements.
Final quote & installation
Once confirmed, we issue the written quotation, agree the sequence and arrange the installation.

Manufacturing. Design. Installation.
Why choose Form & Frame
Form & Frame is built on around 20 years of practical experience across joinery manufacturing, design and installation. That background means we approach a kitchen as a complete fitted system, not simply a collection of cabinets.
A technical eye
Experience in joinery manufacturing, CAD, technical design and installation helps us read the plan, understand the room and work through the fitting details before they become site problems.
One point of contact
A clear scope and an agreed sequence connect preparation, installation, worktops, appliances and the work of appropriately qualified trades.
Attention to the finish
Cabinet alignment, accurate scribes and fillers, panel junctions, worktop details and final door and drawer adjustments are considered as part of the complete kitchen.
Plan-led quoting
Send the kitchen plan, postcode, room photographs and timing first. We can review the likely installation scope before arranging the site visit that confirms the final quotation.
Frequently asked questions

Flat-pack assembly can be included alongside METOD rail fitting, cabinetry, panels, fillers, appliances and worktops. We confirm the full scope from your IKEA plan and order list before providing the final quotation.

Yes. We agree a scope covering preparation, fitting and finishing, with one point of contact for coordination. Old-kitchen removal, flooring and making good can be included. Electrical and gas connections are coordinated with appropriately qualified tradespeople.
How do I get an initial installation quote?
Send your kitchen plan, postcode, room photographs and approximate fitting date. We review these remotely for an initial installation price range, then confirm site conditions and the final scope at a home visit before issuing the final quotation.
