If you’re after a kitchen style that combines simplicity with timeless appeal, a Shaker kitchen might be the perfect choice.
Known for its clean lines, practical design, and understated elegance, the Shaker style has been a favourite for generations.
At Lucas Grant Kitchens, we bring this classic design to life using high-quality, durable materials that offer a look that’s both beautiful and built to last.
The Story Behind Shaker Kitchens
Shaker kitchens date back to the 18th century, created by a religious community called the Shakers.
This group believed in living simply, making only what was needed, and valuing quality above all else.
They crafted furniture and kitchen units with clean lines and minimal decoration, using durable materials that could handle everyday life
Today’s Shaker kitchens carry forward this tradition of simplicity and quality, while adapting to modern needs and materials.
At Lucas Grant Kitchens, we use premium MDF to create cabinets that capture the look and feel of a traditional Shaker kitchen, but with the added benefits of durability and ease of maintenance that come with modern materials.
What Makes a Shaker-Style Kitchen?
Clean, Straightforward Lines
The hallmark of a Shaker kitchen is its simple, structured look.
Shaker cabinets have flat, framed doors with a wide border and a recessed panel in the middle.
This uncluttered style is what makes Shaker kitchens so versatile, blending effortlessly into both classic and contemporary homes.
Built for Quality and Durability
While Shaker kitchens historically used hardwoods, Lucas Grant Kitchens crafts most of our Shaker cabinetry from MDF— a material that’s not only budget-friendly but also highly durable.
MDF offers a smooth, even finish that’s ideal for painted kitchens and resistant to warping or cracking, which can happen with natural wood.
With MDF, you get the look of a traditional Shaker kitchen with the added strength and stability of modern construction
Designed with Practicality in Mind
The Shaker style is all about functionality.
Shaker kitchens are laid out to make cooking and organising simple, with plenty of storage space and a practical layout that keeps everything within reach.
With Lucas Grant Kitchens, you’ll have the freedom to customise the storage options, layout, and features so that your Shaker kitchen works perfectly for your lifestyle.
