A kitchen drawn for Coober Pedy,
not for a catalogue.
Every cabinet cut to your wall lengths and ceiling height, pre-drilled, labelled and freighted to Coober Pedy with the hardware bagged against the cabinet it belongs to.
The short answer
Every cabinet is cut to your wall lengths rather than picked from catalogue widths, then freighted to Coober Pedy west via the Stuart Highway. 18mm moisture-resistant board, laser-bonded edging and Blum hardware as standard. Installation in Coober Pedy is by your builder or kitchen installer, working from the dimensioned service drawings that ship with the order.
What a kitchen is up against in Coober Pedy
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. Remote freight and extreme heat, where an underground or heavily insulated house still needs a kitchen that behaves.
How it reaches Coober Pedy
Your kitchen is cut in Rockhampton and freighted west via the Stuart 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 Coober Pedy
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 South Australia that is SA Consumer and Business Services. 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.
Benchtops, and why they are separate
Laminate ships with the kitchen. Stone does not, and it should not: a stone benchtop is templated off the cabinets after they are installed and level, by a fabricator near you in Coober Pedy, because a slab cut to a drawing rather than to the room is a slab that does not fit. We quote the cabinetry and the laminate; for stone we tell you the cut-out sizes and the fabricator works from the installed run.
A kitchenette instead of a kitchen
If the room in Coober Pedy is a studio, a granny flat, an under-house conversion or a short-stay unit, a kitchenette may be the right answer and it starts at $4,500. Sink, bench, cold storage, and a cooktop where the run allows. Same carcasses and the same Blum hardware as a full kitchen, in a fraction of the length - and it fits through a doorway that a full run would not.
Second-dwelling and rental kitchens
A good share of what we ship to Coober Pedy goes into secondary dwellings, granny flats and rentals. Those kitchens fail in a predictable order - edging near the sink, then drawer runners, then hinge adjustment - and all three are specification, not bad luck. The board, edging and hardware we ship as standard are chosen so the rental kitchen and the owner kitchen are the same kitchen.

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
- Blum soft-close hinges and runners
- Cut to your drawing, not catalogue widths
- Pre-drilled and labelled per cabinet
- Fixed itemised quote, freight its own line

Frequently asked
Coober Pedy — 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 Coober Pedy?
Yes. Coober Pedy is served west via the Stuart 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 Coober Pedy?
No. Our own installation team works Central Queensland only. In Coober Pedy 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 Coober Pedy?
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 Outback South Australia orders go flat.
Who can do the plumbing and electrical in Coober Pedy?
A licensed plumber and a licensed electrician, and you should check both licences yourself before they start. In South Australia, SA Consumer and Business Services is the register to check against.
What board and hardware do you use?
18mm moisture-resistant board, laser-bonded edging and Blum soft-close hinges and runners on every cabinet, in every state. 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 Coober Pedy 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.
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.
