Solid Oak Glazed Shaker Kitchen Doors

Measure from the top or bottom of the door to the middle of the hinge hole.

We have a handy guide to help with measuring for hinge holes if you need it.

Can't I just add hinge holes myself?

Yes, with the right, specialised tools you can but if you're working on a project with multiple doors, having pre-drilled hinge holes ensures consistency in the placement of hinges and saves you the time and effort of adding them yourself.

Properly drilled hinge holes reduce the risk of splitting the wood when inserting screws to attach the hinges. Splitting can weaken the wood and compromise the integrity of the hinge attachment so it’s important these are done correctly by a professional.

How do I add hinge holes to my order?

Step 1. Choose a door orientation:

• Left-Hand Door - swings to the left when you open it
• Right-Hand Door - swings to the right when you open it
• Top-Hung Door - opens upward when you open it

Step 2. Let us know where you want the hinges to be on the door. You can add measurements from the top or bottom of the door to the middle of the hinge hole.

Cost: £5 each

For larger cabinet door sizes, between 1500mm and 2200mm, we'd recommend using 3 hinges.

Hinge holes must be positioned at least 70mm from the edge of the sheet and 70mm from each other.

You can add up to 5 hinge holes, if you need more please contact us.

Supports standard 35mm screw-in hinges - not included.

Our hinge holes use the standard 35mm hinge hole drilling pattern suitable for Blum hinges, which are a popular brand amongst widely recognised kitchen retailers such as Howdens. It is important to note that there may be variations in the design of your existing hinges, particularly in the case of older kitchen installations. Before placing your order, we strongly recommend checking that our hinge holes are compatible with your current hinge sizes. If you are unsure, please contact our customer service team who will be happy to help you. It is worth highlighting that hinges are replaceable and opting for new hinges presents additional advantages, such as the incorporation of features like soft closing doors if you do not already have this.

We offer the option of an unlacquered door so you can stain and finish the doors at home or a professional lacquering service.

Choose between:

None (Unfinished): Doors arrive sanded but unlacquered, ready for you to finish at home. Ideal if you want to apply your own stain or custom finish. You'll need to apply a lacquer, varnish or oil to protect against spills and everyday wear.

Both Sides: We sand and lacquer your doors in our professional spray booth, enhancing the natural oak grain and colour while adding lasting protection.
