Bespoke Traditional Kitchens
Timeless Shaker and in-frame bespoke kitchens, handcrafted and hand-painted to order. Free Design + 12 Year Guarantee
Timeless Shaker and in-frame kitchens
A traditional kitchen should feel warm, welcoming and built to last a lifetime. Our classic Shaker and in-frame designs are handcrafted from solid timber, with framed cabinetry, panelled doors and the period detailing that gives country and period homes their unmistakable character.
We have handcrafted bespoke kitchens for over 25 years. As a Which? Trusted Trader and member of The Guild of Master Craftsmen, every cabinet is designed, built and hand-painted by our own in-house team in our Buckinghamshire workshop - never subcontracted, never flat-packed.
Traditional kitchens are one part of a wider bespoke range. If your taste is a little more streamlined, explore our contemporary kitchens, browse the full bespoke kitchens collection, or add a handsome walk-in pantry and utility room.

Classic design, made for real life
From framed Shaker cabinetry to hand-painted timber finishes and characterful larders - every traditional kitchen is designed around your home and the way you live.
Framed doors, built the proper way
The hallmark of a traditional kitchen is its framed construction. Our in-frame cabinets set each door and drawer within a solid timber frame for a beautifully crafted, furniture-quality finish, while classic Shaker fronts offer that same honest simplicity. Every bespoke kitchen is made to measure, so nothing is standard and nothing is wasted.

Painted colours & natural timber
Choose a soft heritage shade, a deep country green or a natural oiled oak - each door is hand-painted or finished by our own craftsmen for a depth of colour you simply cannot get from a factory. Pair it with brass, pewter or aged-bronze hardware, and it is easily touched up over the years so your kitchen ages gracefully.
Period detailing, made to use every day
Freestanding-style dresser units, generous larder cupboards and a classic Belfast-sink run give a traditional kitchen its heart. Add a curved end panel, a plate rack or bespoke moulding, and connect it all to a handsome walk-in pantry and utility room for storage that keeps the main kitchen calm and clutter-free.

“We wanted a proper in-frame Shaker kitchen with a larder and a Belfast sink, and Day & Knight delivered beyond our expectations. The hand-painted finish is flawless and the craftsmanship suits our period home perfectly.”
