Shaker Kitchens

The shaker kitchen remains one of the most enduringly popular styles in British kitchen design — and it's easy to see why. Defined by its distinctive cabinet doors, a shaker kitchen features a flat, recessed centre panel framed by clean, square-edged rails and stiles. There's no fussy detailing or ornate carving, just honest, symmetrical lines rooted in the
minimalist principles of 18th-century craftsmanship. At Derbyshire Kitchen Company, our shaker kitchens are built
using premium hardwoods for genuine, long-lasting durability, paired with simple, functional hardware in wood, brass or iron to keep the focus on quality over decoration. While the style has its roots in natural wood finishes, today's shaker kitchens are wonderfully versatile — from soft neutral tones like cream, white and dove grey, to bold contemporary shades such as navy and forest green. Whether you're drawn to a classic country look or a more modern interpretation, a shaker kitchen offers timeless style that suits any
home. Visit our Chesterfield showroom to explore our shaker kitchen range and

Handleless Kitchens

For homeowners drawn to clean, contemporary living, a handleless kitchen offers the ultimate in sleek, streamlined design. Rather than traditional knobs or handles, doors and drawers open via integrated grip rails, push-to-open mechanisms, or recessed channels — creating uninterrupted lines and an effortlessly minimal look that's become a hallmark of modern kitchen design. At Derbyshire Kitchen Company, our handleless kitchens combine striking visual simplicity with everyday practicality. Without protruding handles to catch on clothing or clutter worktops visually, these kitchens feel calm, spacious and easy to keep looking immaculate — perfect for busy family homes as well as sleek city living. We offer handleless designs in a wide range of finishes, from matt and gloss lacquers to natural woodgrains, allowing you to create a look that's entirely your own. Whether you're after a striking, ultra-modern statement kitchen or a softer, understated contemporary feel, a handleless design delivers timeless sophistication with seamless functionality.

Bespoke Kitchens

No two homes are the same — and at Derbyshire Kitchen Company, we believe your kitchen shouldn't be either. A bespoke kitchen is designed entirely around you: your space, your lifestyle, and the way you actually live and entertain. Unlike standard off-the-shelf layouts, bespoke design allows every cabinet, worktop and storage solution to be tailored precisely to your home, however unconventional the space. This makes bespoke kitchens the perfect solution for awkward layouts, period properties, sloped ceilings, exposed beams, chimney breasts, or oddly proportioned rooms that standard kitchen ranges simply can't accommodate.


Inframe Shaker Kitchens

Some kitchen styles come and go — in-frame shaker has stood the test of time. At Derbyshire Kitchen Company, we build every in-frame kitchen the traditional way: a solid frame around each cabinet, with doors fitted within it rather than simply laid over the top. It's a slower, more considered method of construction, but it's what gives an in-frame kitchen its depth, character and unmistakably crafted finish. Unlike mass-produced overlay kitchens, in-frame construction allows for genuine bespoke detailing — recessed panels, visible joinery, and a level of finish that feels more like furniture than flat-pack. This makes in-frame shaker the natural choice for period properties, farmhouse conversions, country cottages, or anyone who wants a kitchen with real substance and a design that will still look right in twenty years


Inframe Shaker Raised Centre Panel Kitchens

Not every classic kitchen needs a recessed panel to feel traditional. Our in-frame effect kitchens with raised centre panels give you the character and detailing of true in-frame construction, at a more accessible price point. The door design mimics the look of a genuine in-frame frame and recess, while the raised centre panel adds depth, dimension and a more ornate, traditional finish — perfect for classic, country or heritage-style homes. Unlike true in-frame construction, this style is built using standard cabinet carcasses, which makes it a more cost-effective way to achieve a similarly traditional aesthetic without compromising on style. This makes in-frame effect kitchens with raised centre panels a popular choice for homeowners who want a classic, characterful look without the higher price tag of true in-frame joinery.


Slab Door Kitchens


Sometimes the simplest design makes the biggest statement. Slab door kitchens strip away the frame, the panel and the detailing to leave a completely flat, uninterrupted door front — clean lines, a smooth finish, and nothing to distract from the overall design of your space. Unlike shaker or in-frame styles, there's no recessed panel or visible joinery here; just a single, flush surface available in a huge range of colours, woodgrains and finishes, from matte painted tones to high-gloss and natural timber effects. This makes slab door kitchens the perfect choice for modern homes, open-plan living spaces, or anyone who wants a sleek, minimalist look that puts the focus on colour, texture and clever storage rather than decorative detailing.
