How to identify kitchen manufacturer

Rexxel

Our kitchen was installed in 2014 by the previous owners of the house. We are now starting to find the coating/covering of the cabinet doors coming away from the MDF/wood. I was hoping to get in touch with the manufacturer to check what the terms of the warranty are but I’m having trouble identifying where it was bought from.

Could anyone give me an ideas on where I might find any identifying marks? All I’ve found up to now is the sides of the drawers say “TOPSYSTEM”.

 any warranty probably wont cover you. It was issued to the purchaser not you and probably not transferable

Stuff like drawer units are often made by a company like Blum who then drawer kits (along with hinges, soft close mechanisms, etc) to the kitchen manufacturers. Identifying who actually made/supplied your kitchen is not going to be easy. Short of asking the previous owner, I'd suggest looking under the base units, and you might find a sticker that might give a clue.

Unless it is a very expensive, custom made kitchen, it will probably be from one of a few major suppliers such as Howdens, Wren, B&Q, Wickes/BenchMarx. etc. If so, many of the parts will be interchangeable with a little bit of modification. Being vinyl wrapped doors, it isn't going to be a high end installation, so probably well out of warranty.
