Identify These Kitchen Units!

[cb9002]

Can anyone tell me who made these doors/wall units? I want a single matching 600mm door but haven't found them anywhere.

The fronts are solid wood and don't have any identifying marks that I can see. I think they are limed oak, but don't look like the other limed oak fronts I've seen.

Thanks!

Anyone?

Best bet's one of the 2,180,000 sites that google returns when searching for 'kitchen doors'.

try googling ..........the name of the builder who chucked the house up

Have been to MFI, Magnet, Wickes, B+Q and Homebase, no luck.

Also tried about 30 of those sites!

House was built in the 50's, these doors are a lot newer. Previous owner uncontactable.

Does anyone know of a matching service then?

AFAIK kitchen units are a fashion, in this year out the next, so to keep up with the fashion the makers change the designs, which is why you cant find them, they are obsolete (probably)

from a mkers POV ther is no point in making last years fashion (no money in it)

If all else fails, and I suspect that the other guys are right and you will be lucky to find a match, somebody who was good with a router could make one of these fairly easily. I'm not so sure about the limed finish though, it would be tricky to get just right.

It wouldn't be cheap as a one off - but it would be cheaper than new doors all round.

Hi, I had been searching for a door to fit an integrated dishwasher when I came across your message. I can tell you that the kitchen you have is by MFI, it is limed oak and I believe they called it Somerton. It is the same as mine which was fitted about 8 years ago, the only difference is that I have white ceramic knobs instead of the handles that yours has. I have been on MFI site and have come to the conclusion it is now discontinued. Hope this helps.

I know it's a bit late but I've only just come across this posting.

I actually have a 600 MFI Somerton door that has never been used.
The reason being, there was a tiny knot hole/mark on the door.
When I told MFI, they sent me a new door and told me to keep the other one.

It's been sitting in the broom cupboard for the last 10 years.
