That said, how do you know if the oak frame, dovetailed drawers, oak cabinets and shelves are really going to be as strong and durable as they need to be? In this blog post, we'll answer those questions and more. Keep reading to learn all about the strength and durability of oak frame kitchens.

Handmade Luxury Oak Kitchens

Oak frames are incredibly strong. They are made from sustainably sourced hardwoods that have been kiln dried for optimum stability. Once the oak frame is assembled, it is then dovetailed at the corners for extra strength. This centuries-old technique ensures that the frame will stand up to years of use without coming apart at the seams.  Oak kitchens have a very distinctive smell, feel, and a kind of warmth that help to create a beautiful, comfortable kitchen space where you'll ant to spend time.

Dovetailed Oak Drawers and Cabinets With Adjustable Dog Teeth Supporting Oak Shelves

Dovetailed drawers are another sign of a well-made, luxury wooden kitchen. This time-honored joinery technique interlocks the pieces of wood at the corners, creating a strong drawer that will withstand heavy use. So many modern kitchens simply reply upon dowel, screws, and the kind of fittings that could easily come apart with use over the years. We use only the finest hardwoods such as oak for our dovetailed drawers, so you can be confident that they will stand up to whatever you throw in them.

All of our cabinets and shelves are also made from high-quality hardwoods. We use a variety of quality woods including Oak, Walnut and Maple. Each one is hand-selected for its beauty and durability. Our cabinets are constructed using traditional methods such as mortise and tenon joinery, ensuring that they will last a lifetime.

Quality Hinges

Not only are the frames, drawers, and shelves in our handmade luxury kitchens solid and dependable but the doors attached with solid brass butt hinges with the forever satisfying, soft close fittings. This attention to detail and unwillingness to compromise on quality in any part of our luxury handmade kitchens, right down to the hinges, adds to the durability and pure pleasure of enhancing the value of your home and experiencing the luxury of a quality bespoke kitchen.
