Trade Save Kitchens

Made-to-order kitchens sold direct from the manufacturer

Trade Save Kitchens is a British kitchen manufacturer and supplier that sells complete kitchens, individual kitchen units, kitchen doors and accessories directly to the public and to the trade. The company presents its offer as showroom-quality, made-to-order kitchens at trade prices, and states that its complete kitchens are sold at up to 70% off showroom prices. It is a trading name of Internet Direct Kitchens Limited.

The business positions itself against supply-only and DIY kitchen websites, arguing that not all online kitchen sellers offer the same quality. Its stated approach is to group kitchen units and matching doors or drawer fronts together so that the price shown for a complete kitchen includes both elements.

Rigid built units made in the UK

Trade Save Kitchens manufactures rigid built kitchen units in its own UK factory. Each unit is hand built to the customer's specific requirements only once ordered, and is individually checked for quality before dispatch. The company states that it uses soft-close hinge and drawer systems and that it does not offer flat-pack kitchen units, presenting its rigid built units as superior to much of what high street kitchen showrooms supply.

When a complete kitchen unit is bought online, the order includes the parts required for that unit, such as feet, hinges and drawers. Units are also available without doors as made-to-measure, made-to-order carcasses.

Kitchen ranges and door styles

The catalogue is organised into several kitchen ranges and door collections:

• Classic kitchens, described as designed to stand the test of time.
• Contemporary kitchens, offered in a wide choice of styles and designs.
• True handleless kitchens, presented as a German-influenced, streamlined and minimalist design.
• Handleless kitchens, positioned as the modern option within the range.
• Paint-to-order kitchens, with a large selection of painted colour options.
• Kitchen doors in classic, contemporary, handleless, high gloss, paint-to-order and true handleless styles, plus handleless rail profiles.

Units, components and accessories

Beyond complete kitchens, the range covers individual unit types by size and function, including base units, corner base units, tall units in three heights, wall units in three heights, bridging wall units, dresser units in three heights and midi units, along with finish panels. The accessories catalogue includes additional drawers, pull-out shelves, breakfast bar legs, cutlery trays, hinges, pull-out bins, accent plinths, oak door racks, kitchen door care kits and lacquer, lights, and tools and jigs. Handles are grouped by material and finish, among them bar handles, chrome, copper, pewter effect, porcelain, solid pewter, stainless steel effect and timber options, as well as keyhole handles.

Design service and price matching

The company offers a 3D kitchen design service and invites customers to submit a current plan for quotation. It states that it will match or beat any like-for-like quote. Samples are also listed among the available items.

Delivery and customer service

Trade Save Kitchens delivers nationwide, with its own professional drivers bringing orders directly to the customer's door. The company describes an before-and-after service and invites customers to seek advice on a new kitchen. Customer reviews are published on the site, and the company states that it offers quality products, customer service and trade prices.
