Custom kitchens
freighted to Smithton.
We do not have a showroom in Smithton and we do not need one. Send the measurements, a designer draws it, and you see the drawing and the price before anything is cut.
The short answer
We design and cut every kitchen in Rockhampton, Queensland, and freight it to Smithton south then by sea across Bass Strait — flat packed, or delivered assembled with the doors already hung and adjusted. We do not install in Smithton; your own builder or installer fits it from our drawings. Send the room dimensions and the quote comes back both ways, fixed and itemised, with freight to your postcode on its own line.
What Smithton housing does to a kitchen
The nearest cabinetmaker is not close, and that changes what matters. A complete, labelled delivery with every panel pre-drilled and every hardware bag matched to its cabinet means the job does not stall waiting on one missing part from three hours away. The Bass Strait crossing is part of every quote here, and it is quoted as its own line like any other freight leg.
Getting it to Smithton
Your kitchen is cut in Rockhampton and freighted south then by sea across Bass Strait. 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 Smithton
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 Tasmania that is Consumer, Building and Occupational 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.
Comparing our quote with a local one
Take our itemised quote to any Smithton 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.
What happens if something arrives damaged
Check the delivery against the numbered drawing on the day it lands in Smithton, before the truck leaves if you can. Count the cartons, look at the door and drawer fronts. If a panel is damaged or a carton is missing, photograph it and ring the studio the same day. A replacement is cut from the drawing we hold on file, so it matches the rest of the kitchen rather than being re-measured from scratch.

The specification
Built for this
climate, not a catalogue.
The cold itself is not the problem. The problem is the damp that comes with it, settling in the parts of a kitchen that never get looked at until a door stops closing. Moisture-resistant board and a fused edge are specified for those places.
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

- Changes redrawn until the plan is right

Frequently asked
Smithton — 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 Smithton?
Yes. Smithton is served south then by sea across Bass Strait, 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 Smithton?
No. Our own installation team works Central Queensland only. In Smithton 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 Smithton?
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 North West Coast orders go flat.
Who can do the plumbing and electrical in Smithton?
A licensed plumber and a licensed electrician, and you should check both licences yourself before they start. In Tasmania, Consumer, Building and Occupational 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.
How long will a Smithton order take?
It depends on the kitchen and the freight route, so it is stated on your quote for your job rather than guessed here. What you can plan around is the sequence: drawing, your sign-off, cutting, then freight.
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.
