Full details

This Kitchen Kit flatpack base unit is designed for DIY enthusiasts and trade professionals seeking a quick and reliable kitchen cabinet solution. Its key benefit is an incredibly fast assembly time, allowing cabinets to be put together in as little as 30 seconds with a simple glue-and-click system. A potential caveat is that handles, plinths, and panels are sold separately, requiring additional purchases for a complete look. The unit features three soft-close drawers tested to 25kg, adjustable legs for stability, and a service void for concealing utilities.

FAQs

How long does assembly typically take?

The manufacturer states cabinets can be assembled in as little as 30 seconds using the glue-and-click system, provided all components are ready and the process is familiar.

What type of glue should I use?

While specific glue recommendations are not detailed in the product information, a strong wood adhesive suitable for flatpack furniture is generally required. It is advisable to check the product packaging or Kitchen Kit's official documentation for precise requirements.

Are the doors pre-drilled for handles?

No, this unit features a handleless J-Pull design. If you wish to add external handles, you would need to drill the doors yourself or purchase compatible handleless doors.

What are the dimensions of the drawers?

The frontal sizes for the three drawers are: one of 140mm x 596mm, and two of 283mm x 596mm.

Can I change the direction the drawers open?

This is a base unit with drawers, not doors. The drawers are designed to slide in and out. The doors for the J-Pull range can be hinged on the left or right side.

What is the FIRA Gold certification?

FIRA Gold certification is an award given by the Furniture Industry Research Association, indicating that the product has met high standards for quality, durability, and safety.

Is this unit suitable for wet areas like under a sink?

The unit is laminated and PUR-edged for high heat and moisture resistance, making it more durable than standard flatpack. However, for direct prolonged water exposure, extra precautions or specific plumbing units might be necessary.

Troubleshooting

Cabinet panels do not click together securely.

Ensure glue is applied evenly and correctly to all connection points. Check for any debris or obstructions preventing a flush fit. Reapply glue and try again, applying firm, consistent pressure.

Drawers are not closing smoothly or are sticking.

Verify that the drawer runners are correctly installed and aligned within the cabinet. Check for any obstructions within the drawer path. Ensure the cabinet itself is perfectly level.

Unit is wobbly or unstable.

Adjust the height of the four legs to ensure the unit is firmly planted on the floor. Make sure all locking mechanisms are fully engaged during assembly.

Visible gaps between panels after assembly.

Ensure that the glue has been applied correctly and that panels were pushed together firmly until the click mechanism engaged. If gaps persist, it may indicate an assembly error or a manufacturing defect; contact customer support.

  3. Firmly press the panels together, ensuring they click into place securely.
  4. Attach the three soft-close drawers following the integrated runner system.
  5. Install the four adjustable legs, then position the unit and level it by adjusting the leg heights.
  6. Utilize the 49mm service void at the rear to discreetly manage any necessary pipework or wiring.

  • Doors can be hinged on either the left or right side.
  • Compatible with standard kitchen worktops and appliances. Ensure adequate ventilation and space for appliance installation.

Care:

  • Clean the laminated and PUR-edged surfaces with a soft, damp cloth.
