Flat pack or assembled,
delivered to Derby.
Derby is one freight run from our door in Rockhampton. What arrives is a kitchen drawn for your room, in 18mm moisture-resistant board with Blum hardware throughout.
The short answer
Every cabinet is cut to your wall lengths rather than picked from catalogue widths, then freighted to Derby west across the Nullarbor. 18mm moisture-resistant board, laser-bonded edging and Blum hardware as standard. Installation in Derby 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 Derby
A town like this has every decade of Australian housing in it, and each decade has its own kitchen problem. Drawing to the room rather than to a standard width is what lets one supplier handle all of them. Wet-season humidity as hard as Far North Queensland, with freight distances that make a carton the only sensible format.
How it reaches Derby
Your kitchen is cut in Rockhampton and freighted west across the Nullarbor. 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 Derby
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 Western Australia that is the WA Building and Energy division. 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 ships with the order
A numbered plan and elevations, a service drawing marking every waste, water point and outlet for your Derby plumber and electrician, the hardware bagged per cabinet, kickboards and end panels cut to length, and fillers where the room needs them. Nothing on that list is an extra. The service drawing in particular is what stops a cabinet being cut on site to clear a pipe nobody planned for.
Appliances: yours or ours
Most Derby 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.
Flat pack or assembled, decided on numbers
The cabinetry price is identical. What differs is the assembly line on the quote and the freight line, because assembled cabinets take several times the truck space of the same kitchen in cartons. To Derby that difference is usually decisive, and most orders this far out go flat. But the quote shows both, so it is a number you compare rather than a decision you are talked into.

The specification
Built for this
climate, not a catalogue.
A kitchen here spends months in air that never really dries out. That is why we will not quote 16mm standard board at any price — it is the cheaper option that costs the most, because a swollen carcass cannot be adjusted back into square.
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
Derby — 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 Derby?
Yes. Derby is served west across the Nullarbor, 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 Derby?
No. Our own installation team works Central Queensland only. In Derby 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 Derby?
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 the Kimberley orders go flat.
Who can do the plumbing and electrical in Derby?
A licensed plumber and a licensed electrician, and you should check both licences yourself before they start. In Western Australia, the WA Building and Energy division 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 Derby 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.
