Port Douglas kitchens,
cut to your room.
A kitchen cut to your measurements rather than picked from catalogue widths, packed flat for the run to Port Douglas or delivered with the doors already hung and adjusted.
The short answer
Yes, we ship to Port Douglas. The kitchen is drawn to your measurements, cut in Rockhampton and freighted north along the Bruce Highway. You choose flat packed or delivered assembled on the same quote, and your own trades fit it — we install in Central Queensland only. Nothing is due to see the drawing or the price, and nothing is cut until you sign the drawing off.
The brief Port Douglas actually sets
Near the water it is never the doors that go first, it is everything that moves. Salt finds the cheapest component in the kitchen and works on it. Specifying the hardware properly at the start is most of what a coastal kitchen needs. Wet-season humidity here is the hardest test a kitchen carcass gets anywhere in Australia, and it is the reason we do not sell 16mm standard board at all.
The run to Port Douglas
Your kitchen is cut in Rockhampton and freighted north along the Bruce 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 Port Douglas
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 Queensland that is QBCC. 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.
Second-dwelling and rental kitchens
A good share of what we ship to Port Douglas 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.
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 Port Douglas, 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 Port Douglas 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.

The specification
Built for this
climate, not a catalogue.
Humidity is the design constraint here, not heat. Through the wet season a standard-core carcass takes on moisture at the cut edges and swells, and once a panel has swollen the door never sits square again. Everything we ship is 18mm moisture-resistant board with laser-bonded edging — no glue line for water to track along.
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.

Frequently asked
Port Douglas — 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 Port Douglas?
Yes. Port Douglas is served north along the Bruce 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 Port Douglas?
No. Our own installation team works Central Queensland only. In Port Douglas 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 Port Douglas?
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 North Queensland orders go flat.
Who can do the plumbing and electrical in Port Douglas?
A licensed plumber and a licensed electrician, and you should check both licences yourself before they start. In Queensland, QBCC 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.
Can I see a sample before ordering in Port Douglas?
Yes. Door, board and edging samples are posted out, and for most people that settles the colour question better than a screen does. Ask when you send the dimensions through.
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.
