Kitchens in Derby
Looking for a new kitchen in Derby?
At Duffield Kitchens, we design beautiful, made-to-measure kitchens for homes throughout Derby, Derbyshire and the surrounding areas.
From the initial ideas and kitchen design through to supply and project management, we help take the stress out of creating a new kitchen and make sure the finished space works properly for your home and the way you live.
Whether you are planning a traditional Shaker kitchen, a contemporary handleless design, an in-frame kitchen or something completely individual, our designers will work with you to create a kitchen that combines appearance, practicality and long-term quality.
Our kitchen showroom is located in Duffield, just north of Derby, where you can see our cabinetry, doors, worktops, handles and finishes in person.
Bespoke Kitchen Design in Derby
Every kitchen starts with the design.
Rather than simply filling the available walls with standard units, we look at the complete room and how the kitchen will actually be used.
We consider appliance positions, storage, preparation space, seating, walkways and how different areas of the kitchen connect with one another.
For extensions and larger open-plan spaces, we can also look at how the kitchen works alongside dining and living areas so that the finished room feels properly considered as a whole.
Our design service allows us to show you how different layouts, colours, worktops and finishes could work before anything is ordered.
Realistic kitchen visualisations can also help you understand the proportions of the room and give you a much clearer idea of how the finished kitchen will look.
Because we are not restricted to a small number of standard sizes, we also have greater flexibility when designing around awkward spaces, unusual wall lengths and individual properties.
Made-to-Measure Kitchens
Our kitchens are designed around your home, rather than making your home fit around a limited selection of standard cabinets.
Bespoke cabinet sizing and made-to-measure doors allow us to make better use of the available space and reduce unnecessary filler panels or awkward gaps.
This can make a particularly noticeable difference in older properties and rooms where the dimensions are rarely perfectly suited to standard kitchen sizes.
Our British-manufactured cabinetry is delivered fully assembled, with doors and drawers already fitted wherever possible. This helps provide a more precise finish and can also make the installation process more efficient.
We also offer a wide choice of cabinet interior finishes, allowing the inside of the kitchen to complement the overall design.
For painted kitchens, substantial 22mm doors can be professionally sprayed and lacquered to create a high-quality, durable finish in a wide range of colours.
From a small adjustment to a cabinet width through to a completely bespoke layout, we have the flexibility to create a kitchen that feels properly designed for the room.
​
Why Choose Duffield Kitchens?
Choosing a new kitchen is a significant investment, so it is important to know what you are actually getting for your money.
​
At Duffield Kitchens, we focus on the areas that make a genuine difference to the quality and appearance of the finished kitchen.
​
Bespoke Sizing
We are not limited to designing exclusively around standard cabinet widths. Bespoke cabinetry and made-to-measure doors give us much greater flexibility when planning your kitchen.
​
British-Manufactured Cabinetry
Our kitchen cabinets are manufactured in Britain and supplied fully assembled rather than arriving as flat-pack furniture.
​
Premium Painted Doors
Our painted kitchen ranges can use substantial 22mm doors that are professionally sprayed and lacquered for a high-quality finish.
​
Wide Choice of Cabinet Interiors
The inside of your kitchen does not have to be an afterthought. We offer a wide selection of cabinet interior finishes to help create a more coordinated kitchen.
​
Individually Designed Kitchens
We do not work from a fixed package or template. Each kitchen is designed around the property, your requirements and the way you want to use the space.
​
Local Kitchen Specialists
We design kitchens for customers throughout Derby and the surrounding Derbyshire area, with a showroom nearby in Duffield where you can discuss your project face-to-face.

Kitchen Styles
There is no single style that defines a Duffield Kitchens project.
We work with a wide variety of kitchen styles, colours and finishes.
​
Shaker Kitchens
Shaker kitchens remain one of our most popular choices because they can work equally well in traditional and contemporary homes.
They can be kept classic with neutral colours and traditional handles or given a much more modern appearance using darker cabinetry, quartz worktops and contemporary finishes.
​
Handleless Kitchens
Handleless kitchens provide a clean, contemporary appearance with strong lines and minimal visual clutter.
They work particularly well in modern extensions and open-plan spaces where the kitchen becomes part of a larger living area.
​
Modern Kitchens
Modern kitchen design can include slab doors, painted finishes, timber textures, integrated appliances and carefully designed islands.
The focus is usually on clean proportions, practical storage and a simple overall appearance.
​
In-Frame Kitchens
In-frame kitchens offer a more detailed, furniture-like appearance, with each door and drawer sitting within a visible frame.
They are particularly suited to customers looking for a premium, traditional style, although darker colours and simpler detailing can also create a very contemporary result.
​
Kitchen Installation in Derby
A good kitchen design is only part of the finished result.
The installation stage needs to be properly planned and coordinated so that cabinetry, worktops, appliances and the various trades involved come together in the correct order.
We help project manage the kitchen process and coordinate the different stages required to turn the design into a completed kitchen.
Installation work is carried out by experienced independent installers and trades, while our team remains involved in coordinating the project and helping keep everything moving.
Before installation begins, we can discuss the requirements of your particular project so there is a clear understanding of what work is required and how the different stages will fit together.
Our aim is to make the process as straightforward as possible, from the first design appointment through to the finished kitchen.
