Kitchen Renovation in a Home Over 100 Years Old

In this customer video, a homeowner explains how they planned a kitchen for a house over 100 years old. They describe the experience from the first showroom visit through measuring and installation, and the details they enjoy in the finished room.

The brief: a kitchen that suits an older home

At 1:03 in the video, the homeowner explains that they chose doors to fit the age of the house. The project shows why a door style should be considered alongside the character of the surrounding rooms, rather than in isolation.

The customer’s experience

At 0:35, the customer describes the process from measuring to installation as straightforward. At 0:49, they highlight the coffee-making area as a favourite feature and discuss how easy the kitchen is to use and clean. These are the homeowner’s comments about this particular project.

Ideas to take into your own plan

A customer video is useful because it shows the cabinetry as part of a real room rather than as an isolated sample. Notice how the door finish, benchtop, handles, appliances, lighting and surrounding colours work together.

Plan the layout before choosing finishes

Start with accurate wall, window, doorway, appliance and service measurements. Confirm fillers, corner clearances, end panels and toe kicks before finalising the order.

Hardware choices for your own order

The video does not specify the cabinet hardware fitted in this home. For current orders, Premier cabinets use DTC soft-close hinges and runners as the standard-price option where applicable. Customers can pay extra to upgrade suitable cabinets to Blum branded hardware.
