Yes.  The cabinets can easily be adapted to use in the laundry and other areas of the home.  We often find customers do both their kitchen and laundry at the same time to save costs and time hassles with renovations.

This is a very important question.  By visiting showrooms and viewing the products you can then visualise what you like and most importantly what would suit your home.  We have 5 showroom locations in Nunawading, Preston, Kilsyth and Maribyrnong and Moorabbin.

First we would suggest you Download the Design Guide which is an excellent source of information.  This Guide provides step by step information including a checklist that is perfect for explaining how to measure your kitchen space including window, fridge, appliance spaces etc.  All that is required is a rough drawing with all measurements so the Designer can design your kitchen or laundry to your needs and provide an on the spot quote.  Of course there is the option for you to organise a final check measure following your order.  Bookings are essential.  Our kitchen showrooms are busy and we don’t want you sitting around if we are designing someone else’s kitchen. You can book a design online or telephone the kitchen showroom closest to you.
