Your Broken Hill kitchen,
packed flat or built.
The cabinetry that goes into a Broken Hill kitchen is the same cabinetry we put in our own installed jobs: 18mm moisture-resistant board, laser-bonded edging, Blum hardware. What differs is that your trades fit it rather than ours.
The short answer
We supply Broken Hill, we do not install there. The cabinetry is cut to your wall lengths and ceiling height rather than selected from catalogue widths, then freighted west via the Barrier Highway as flat cartons or as assembled cabinets, whichever your quote compares better on. Specification is the same either way and the same in every state: 18mm moisture-resistant board, laser-bonded edging, Blum hinges and full-extension runners.
What brief does Broken Hill actually set?
Turnover is the enemy. Every tenancy is a fresh set of hands on the same drawers, and cheap runners announce it within a year. What we ship is specified to be boring and repairable, which in a rental is the highest compliment. Extreme dry heat and long freight runs, so cartons and a fixed freight line matter more here than anywhere.
What is the run to Broken Hill?
Your kitchen is cut in Rockhampton and freighted west via the Barrier Highway. Flat cartons are labelled to a numbered drawing, one per cabinet where possible, with doors and fronts wrapped separately and the Blum hardware bagged against the cabinet it belongs to. Assembled orders arrive as finished boxes, doors hung and adjusted, which takes more truck space and shows as a higher freight line. Both are on the same quote so the choice is a number rather than a guess.
Who fits it in Broken Hill?
Your builder, carpenter or kitchen installer, plus a licensed plumber and a licensed electrician for their parts. Ask each for a licence number and check it yourself — in New South Wales that is NSW Fair Trading. Every order ships with dimensioned service drawings showing each waste, water point and outlet, so the trades rough in to the plan rather than to a guess. Our install guide sets out the three trades and the fixed order they work in.
What goes wrong with cheap cabinetry first?
In a predictable order: the edging lifts near the sink and the dishwasher, then water gets into the exposed core and the panel swells, then the drawer runners start to drag, then the doors stop lining up because the hinges have no adjustment left. None of that is bad luck. It is what 16mm standard-core board with glued edging and unbranded hardware does, and it is the reason we do not sell it.
Do I supply the appliances, or do you?
Most Broken Hill orders come with the appliances already chosen, and that is the easier way round. Send us the model numbers, or the cut-out dimensions from the spec sheet, and the cabinets are cut to take them. If you would rather we supplied them, they are quoted as their own lines. What does not work is guessing: a 900mm cooktop in a cabinet cut for 600mm is a new cabinet, not an adjustment.
How do I compare this with a Broken Hill cabinetmaker?
Take our itemised quote to any Broken Hill cabinetmaker and compare it line for line, which is exactly what it is formatted for. Ask them three things: board thickness and moisture rating, edging method, hardware brand. If the answers match ours and the number is better, take theirs - a local supplier with the same specification and no freight line is a genuinely good outcome. If the answers are vague, you have learned something either way.

The specification
Built for this
climate, not a catalogue.
Dry heat, dust and hard water are the local test. Dry heat shrinks poorly-made joints and dust finds its way into cheap runners until they grate. Blum runners and hinges are sealed and carry a lifetime mechanical warranty, which is why we fit nothing else.
The same three questions decide any kitchen anywhere: board thickness and moisture rating, edging method, hardware brand. Ours are 18mm moisture-resistant, laser-bonded and Blum, and they are printed on every quote. How to judge a flat pack.
- 18mm moisture-resistant board
- Laser-bonded edging, no glue line
- Soft-close hinges and full-extension runners
- Cut to your drawing, not catalogue widths

What goes inside it
Anyone can sell you boxes.
This is the part that takes knowing.
Carcasses and doors decide how long it lasts. The fittings decide whether you like using it — and most suppliers charge for them at the end. These are included in your Broken Hill kitchen, not quoted as extras once the number is agreed. That is the difference, and it is the one most suppliers will not match.

Frequently asked
Broken Hill — questions
If your question is not here, call the studio. We would rather talk it through than have you guess.
Ask us directly →Do you deliver flat pack kitchens to Broken Hill?
Yes. Broken Hill is served west via the Barrier Highway, and freight is quoted to your postcode as its own line on the quote rather than folded into the cabinetry price.
Do you install kitchens in Broken Hill?
No. Our own installation team works Central Queensland only. In Broken Hill your builder, carpenter or kitchen installer fits it, working from the dimensioned service drawings that ship with every order. Our install guide covers the three trades and the order they work in.
Should I order flat pack or assembled to Broken Hill?
Both are quoted on the same drawing. Flat cartons ship for less and get through tight doorways; assembled arrives with carcasses built and doors adjusted so your installer is fitting rather than building. Over this distance most Far West NSW orders go flat.
Who can do the plumbing and electrical in Broken Hill?
A licensed plumber and a licensed electrician, and you should check both licences yourself before they start. In New South Wales, NSW Fair Trading is the register to check against.
What board and hardware do you use?
18mm moisture-resistant board, laser-bonded edging and soft-close hinges and full-extension runners on every cabinet, in every state, with the hardware brand named on your quote. The specification is printed on your quote so you can hold it against anything else you are offered.
Is there a deposit to get a Broken Hill quote?
No. The drawing and the itemised quote cost nothing and carry no obligation. Payment terms for the order itself are stated on that quote.
Can I add pull-downs and organisers to a Broken Hill kitchen?
Yes, and they are quoted per item rather than bundled into a package you did not ask for. Pull-down wall baskets, magic corners, tall larder pull-outs and drawer organisers can all go into a Broken Hill order. If you order delivered assembled they are fitted before it ships; flat packed, they arrive with the cabinet they belong to.
Delivered assembled
The assembly is done
before it arrives.
Carcasses built square on a bench, Blum hardware fitted, doors hung and adjusted to even gaps. On site you are fixing finished cabinets to a wall, not building them on the floor. Your builder or installer levels it, fixes it and fits the benchtop, working from our drawings. Prefer to build it yourself? The same kitchen ships flat pack.
