The project journey

From measuring to an installed kitchen

A good result comes from a sequence of decisions: accurate measuring, an agreed design, manufacturing, careful delivery and precise installation.

Measuring

Accurate measurement of the room

Measuring records more than just the length and height of the walls. What matters are the corners, floor and ceiling levels, openings, projections, ventilation, and the position of the water and electrical points. This data determines how the furniture will fit into the actual room.

Result of the stage: a survey of the room and the baseline data on which the kitchen layout can be safely built.

What it's helpful to prepare

Free access helps identify all the significant points and reduces the likelihood of clarifications once design work has already begun.

  • Provide access to the walls, corners, windows and utilities in the area of the future furniture.
  • Let us know about any planned changes to the floor, walls, ventilation, plumbing and electrics.

Design

From 3D visual to working documentation

First the layout takes shape: the placement of tall cabinets, work zones, appliances, the sink and storage. The agreed decisions are then carried over into a working design with dimensions, carcass fittings and technical connections.

It is precisely at the design stage that materials, built-in appliance models, opening methods and the position of the utilities need to be confirmed. The more thoroughly the design is agreed, the fewer adjustments will be needed after it is handed over to production.

Result of the stage: a clear visual image of the kitchen and a set of decisions by which it can be manufactured and installed.

Production

The design becomes a set of furniture parts

Once the documentation is approved, the materials go into processing. Each operation follows the logic of the working design: the dimensions, edges and holes must all line up in the finished carcass.

Equipment for cutting furniture panels

Cutting

Parts take on their designed dimensions

Once the design is approved, furniture panels are cut into individual parts of the required size. Precision at this stage helps the carcasses come together evenly and match the agreed kitchen layout.

Edging

Edges are sealed and protected

Edge banding creates a neat edge and protects the material in everyday use. The appearance of the join depends on how precisely the part was prepared and processed.

Equipment for drilling and doweling furniture parts

Drilling

Holes are drilled to the working design

The positions of fixings, hinges and mechanisms are transferred onto the parts. The repeatability of these operations helps the carcasses come together consistently and the hardware take up its intended position.

Assembly

Carcasses are assembled and inspected

After processing, the parts are grouped into sets and assembled into carcasses. At this stage, the precision and tightness of the joints, the position of shelves and mechanisms, the opening of drawers and compliance with the working design are all checked.

Before dispatch, the elements are checked once more for completeness. Visible surfaces, edges and fronts are protected with packaging, and the parts are grouped so that installation on site proceeds sequentially, without unnecessary searching for components.

Delivery

The set is delivered for the agreed installation

Delivery links production with the work on site. The parts, carcasses and fittings must arrive protected, in a clear set, and in an order that allows installation to begin without unnecessary movement around the room.

The time and conditions for carrying items in are agreed in advance. This is especially important for buildings with limited access, an access-control regime, a small lift, or requirements for protecting common areas.

Result of the stage: the complete set of furniture is on site and ready for sequential installation.

How to make delivery easier

A little preparation of the route helps move large parts faster and more safely, without risking the room's finishes.

  • Clear the path from the entrance to the room and remove fragile items.
  • Check in advance the availability of parking and the lift, and the building's rules for carrying items in.
  • Leave space in the room for temporary placement of the protected parts.

Installation

Furniture is assembled and levelled in the room

On site, the carcasses are levelled, joined together and fitted to the walls, floor and other features of the room. The fronts, countertops, decorative elements and mechanisms are then installed. Built-in appliances are integrated into the prepared niches: gaps, the opening of neighbouring fronts and access to service areas are checked.

Installation requires free space: large elements need to be brought in, laid out and assembled safely, without damaging the finished decor. A prepared room therefore helps the work go more precisely and carefully.

Result of the stage: furniture is installed to the design, fronts and mechanisms are adjusted, and the functional joints are checked.

Before the installers arrive

  • Complete dusty and wet building works before installation begins.
  • Clear the work area and ensure safe access to the room.
  • Do not move the agreed water, electricity and ventilation points after the measurement without checking against the design.

Connections

Connection of plumbing and electrical appliances

Connection is an additional service that can be agreed together with the kitchen design. It includes connecting the sink, tap and other plumbing, as well as electrical appliances, to points prepared in advance.

If the existing sockets, water outlets or other technical points do not match the design, their advance relocation can be agreed as part of the additional service. The relocation is carried out before the furniture is installed.

Relocating points and making connections is carried out by a separate certified specialist, not by the furniture installers. A warranty also applies to the work carried out. The specific scope is determined by the design and the condition of the utilities on site.

Result of the stage: the agreed plumbing and electrical appliances are connected, tested and ready for use.
