How much for made to measure wooden doors for kitchen

littlerock

My kitchen is showing its age (coming up to 15 years). Need new units, (several of the doors are now hanging on their hinges), new sink, new stove. The units were from Magnet originally, at the more expensive end of their range, and are made of white painted limed oak. So we have been out looking at replacement kitchens.

There is nothing in quite the style of the current kitchen, which we very much like, and the ones we do like are in the top end of the main manufacturers ranges so quite expensive. So we are wondering about getting replacement doors custom made to fit on existing carcasses. This would be more expensive than buying them in but would save on having the entire kitchen out. (In particular we should like to keep some handpainted tiles we have on one of the walls).

Before I approach people who make this sort of thing, I should like to get an idea of the cost. Basically we have seven floor cabinets, 1 set of drawers, 8 wall cabinets, two more small glass fronted wall cabinets, an integrated full height fridge freezer cabinet, integrated full height microwave and oven unit and a full height pull out larder.

Need a ball park figure for getting these made and installed on existing carcasses.

We have recently had this done in the kitchen. The doors worked out on average about £50 each including matching plinth, hinges and thingies (cornice?) to go at the top and bottom of the cupboards and handles. But of course a lot depends on what doors and finish you choose.

If the carcases are ok I would seriously consider doing it again. There was a massive choice of doors, door colours and finishes. This was where we got ours from and I would recommend to a friend without hesitation.

Got it all professionally fitted, not something to try unless you have good DIY skills.

It depends on what quality you want and how long you want it to last. My kitchen doors were bought through the building trade but I could not get them for anywhere near £50 each, let alone get them fitted. Hence how long is a piece of string?

Not really enough info to give even a ball park estimate, floor and wall cabinets vary in size greatly, what sizes do you have?
more importantly what style / material doors do you want?

If you want melamine faced doors, worth taking a look on http://www.kitchendoorworkshop.co.uk/ they make doors to custom sizes, you can then get someone in to fit them.
If you want solid wood or sprayed doors then I'd look for a local cabinet maker that can make and fit for you.
