The 9 Unit Shaker Kitchen Package for HMO & Buy to Let
What's Included in the Kitchen Package The nine cabinets Qty Unit 3 x QuickCab single base units 1 x QuickCab double base unit 1 x QuickCab 3-drawer pack 1 x QuickCab larder unit 3 x QuickCab single wall units Cabinets are supplied in white as standard, the neutral that works behind every door colour and stays looking clean longest in a rental. Windsor shaker doors and drawer fronts Doors and drawer fronts for all nine units in the Windsor shaker range, in your choice of White, Light Grey, Dust Grey or Indigo. Windsor is a five-piece shaker door, genuine frame-and-panel construction with a real shadow line, not a slab with a groove routed into it, and with a visible grain that gives a room warmth. It's the safest specification you can put in a rental kitchen supplier UK landlords rely on: it suits period and modern property alike, and it won't look dated in five years the way a high gloss will. Soft close hardware and handles ✔ Soft close hinges on every door ✔ Soft close drawers throughout ✔ Brushed nickel handles, cup handles on the drawers, knobs on the doors ✔ Adjustable legs and all fixings ✔ Colour co-ordinated cover caps to hide unused drill holes Soft close is normally an upgrade line on a merchant quote. Here it's standard, and in a rental it earns its place, because soft close hinges are the single biggest reason a kitchen still looks tight after three tenancies instead of hanging off its doors. Fitting your own ironmongery or matching what's already in the property? Choose the no handles option and we'll leave them off. Finishing components, all included This is where most kitchen packages catch you out. Every component needed to finish the kitchen properly is in the price: Qty Component 3 x Base end panels 3 x Wall end panels 2 x Larder end panels 2 x Cornice, 3050 x 45 x 35mm 2 x Plinths, 3050 x 150 x 18mm 1 x Corner post That's over 6 metres of plinth and 6 metres of cornice, enough for a full run plus a return. Buy the same kitchen unit by unit and every one of these is an extra, usually the ones you discover you need mid-fit with the trade counter shut until Monday. Two postformed worktops, your choice of finish Two full 3000 x 600 x 38mm postformed worktop lengths are included, 6 metres in total, enough for a run and a return. The rounded postformed edge is the right call for a rental: no sharp corner to chip, and nothing to catch a hip on in a narrow galley kitchen. Colmar Oak Walnut Black Slate Don Tello Woodstone Gris Brasilia No separate worktop order, no upsell at checkout, no chasing a second delivery two weeks after the cabinets land. Optional Upgrades The package above is a complete, finished buy to let kitchen, nothing here is needed to fit it. These are for when the property warrants a bit more, or when you'd rather the whole job landed on one delivery. Appliance pack, oven, hob and extractor Add a matching three-piece appliance pack and the kitchen arrives ready to cook in. Two versions, same oven and extractor, your choice of hob: Appliance Pack 1, gas 60cm single oven, 55 litre, stainless steel and black, 4 function 60cm gas hob, stainless steel, 4 burner 60cm chimney extractor hood, stainless steel, 345m³/hr Appliance Pack 2, ceramic 60cm single oven, 55 litre, stainless steel and black, 4 function 60cm ceramic hob, black glass, 4 zone 60cm chimney extractor hood, stainless steel, 345m³/hr Gas where the property already has a supply, ceramic where it doesn't, or where you'd rather tenants weren't dealing with a gas hob at all. The black glass ceramic photographs particularly well against a light shaker door. For a landlord it's one supplier, one delivery and one invoice instead of three, with no gap between the kitchen going in and the property being lettable. Planning the layout: swap one of your base selections for the 600mm under-oven housing, and the extractor sits in place of one of your three wall units above the hob. Choose those at the point of order and the cabinetry is set up for the appliances from the start, no cutting a stock unit about on site, and no discovering the oven doesn't fit once the run's in. Square edge worktops Prefer the sharper, more contemporary line of a square edge? Four square edge finishes are available: Marmo Bianco, 38mm Torrano Marble, 38mm Caldeira, 22mm Marmo Grigio, 22mm The marble effects in particular lift a modest kitchen well beyond its budget in a listing photo, worth it on a property you're refurbishing to sell, or a higher-yield let where the kitchen is carrying the viewing. Cavallo doors Cavallo is our Italian-made shaker range, with classic V-groove detailing, a subtle woodgrain texture and the widest colour palette we offer, nine shades including White, Ivory, Cashmere, Light Grey, Dust Grey, Anthracite, Indigo, Sage Green and Fir Green. Upgrade to Cavallo if you want colour. The sage and fir greens are the ones that make people stop scrolling, and on a property you're selling rather than letting they earn their keep in the listing photos alone. Oak and coloured cabinets White carcasses are standard. If you'd prefer oak or another cabinet colour, give us a ring and we'll quote it, everything is manufactured in our own Aspin Collins Manchester workshop, so it's a straightforward change. Choose Your Unit Sizes Most kitchen suppliers charge by width, a 600mm base unit costs more than a 300mm, so an awkward room costs you more than a square one. Ours doesn't work like that. Choose the width you want for every unit in the package from the standard sizes below. Whichever combination you pick, the package price is identical. Base unit sizes Single base units, 150, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500 or 600mm Double base unit, 700, 800, 900 or 1000mm Base units are 720mm high and 560mm deep. Appliance housing options Fitting an oven or a built-in fridge? Swap any of your base or larder selections for one of these instead, at no change to the package price: 600mm under-oven housing, takes a built-under single oven 600mm larder appliance housing, full height, for a built-in fridge, freezer or tall oven Choose them in place of a smaller or standard unit rather than in addition, so the package stays at nine cabinets. Drawer pack sizes 3-drawer pack, 300, 400, 500 or 600mm, soft close throughout Larder unit sizes Larder unit, 300, 400, 500 or 600mm, 1970mm high Supplied with gable ends, back, three fixed shelves and a floating shelf, so you can configure the internals to suit the property. Wall unit sizes Single wall units, 150, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500 or 600mm Wall units are 720mm high and 300mm deep. Why Unit Sizes Matter in Rental Property Rental kitchens are rarely square, rarely modern and rarely generous. Older terraces, converted flats and HMO conversions are full of chimney breasts, boiler cupboards and awkward returns. Standard widths mean filler panels, and filler panels look cheap in listing photos. Example Kitchen: 2 Bed Terrace Here's how the 9 unit kitchen package works in a real room, using the kind of kitchen you'll find in most terraced rental stock. The room A galley kitchen with one usable run of 2,950mm between the back door and the corner, a boiler on the wall above, and the sink already plumbed roughly two thirds along. The opposite wall has space for a full height unit and the fridge. How the package fits 900mm double base unit (pans and bulk storage) 500mm drawer pack (cutlery and utensils) 600mm single base unit (under the sink) 600mm single base unit 350mm single base unit (fills the last gap flush to the corner) That's five base units totalling exactly 2,950mm, covered by a single 3000mm worktop with a little to trim. No filler panels, no scribed infill, no gap. Order the same run from a standard supplier and you'd take three 600s, a 500 and a 1000, 3,300mm of units into a 2,950mm wall. You'd either lose a unit or cut one down on site. Fitting an oven Taking the appliance pack? Swap one of the 600mm base units for the 600mm under-oven housing and the run stays exactly the same length. The extractor takes the place of one wall unit above it. The wall run Three wall units run above the base cabinets, stopping short of the boiler, finished with cornice along the top and end panels on the exposed returns. Drop one unit to a 350mm or 400mm if your boiler or window sits awkwardly, again, at no extra cost. The larder The 500mm larder goes on the opposite wall beside the fridge space, panelled both sides, giving the property the dry goods storage that tenants consistently rate and that most small rental kitchens don't have. The result A complete, fitted-looking kitchen in a room that would normally force a compromise, and the second worktop still spare for the return or the opposite wall. Quality & Specification There's a version of the budget kitchen where the carcass swells at the first spill, the hinges drop within a year, and you're back in the property between tenancies redoing work you already paid for. We're a manufacturer, not a middleman. These QuickCab cabinets are made in our own Aspin Collins workshop in Manchester, CNC, panel saw and industrial edgebanding, on the same machines as our bespoke cabinetry. No showroom rent in your price, no commission-driven designer, no six week wait behind somebody else's island. Specification at a glance Base units: 720mm high x 560mm deep Wall units: 720mm high x 300mm deep Larder: 1970mm high Drawers rated to 30-40kg, soft close as standard Soft close hinges on every door Colour co-ordinated cover caps included as standard Made in our Manchester workshop Assembly & QuickCab QuickCab is the cabinet system that combines the strength of a rigid build with the convenience of flat pack. The cam and dowels arrive pre-inserted, so each cabinet goes together in around two minutes, 75% faster than a traditional flat pack, with no tools, no glue and no cryptic diagram. Nine cabinets. Roughly twenty minutes. For a landlord that's not a convenience, it's money. Assembly time is fitter's time, and fitter's time is void days. If the kitchen goes in Monday instead of Wednesday, you've bought back two days of a void period on every refurb you do. Why flat packed rather than rigid? Because it ships cheaper and arrives intact. Flat packed cabinets travel without corner damage, go up tenement stairs and through narrow flat doorways that a rigid carcass won't, and don't cost a pallet of freight to move air around the country. That saving stays in the package price instead of going to a courier, and with QuickCab you get rigid-build strength anyway. Who It's For ✔ HMO landlords and operators, kitchens that take shared-household punishment ✔ Buy to let kitchen investors refurbishing between tenancies, where void days cost real money ✔ Property developers and flippers working to a schedule and a fixed budget ✔ Letting and estate agents managing refurbs on behalf of owners ✔ Serviced accommodation and holiday let owners ✔ First time buyers and self-builders who want a proper shaker kitchen without a showroom quote Fitting more than one property?

Ordering & Delivery Fast & Reliable UK-Wide Delivery We provide nationwide shipping from our Manchester workshop, delivered straight to the property, site or yard, no trade counter, no depot run, no van hire. Free standard delivery, 1-5 working days depending on location. Delivery is kerbside, which means the driver delivers to the kerb rather than into the property. A full kitchen is a substantial consignment, so please make sure someone is available to help unload before you place your order. Cancellations & Returns Before your order goes into production We'll email an order confirmation listing every unit width, door colour, worktop and any upgrades you've chosen. Check it carefully and confirm, once we have your confirmation the order goes into production and the doors are drilled to your specification. Changed your mind? If you're buying as a consumer, you have 14 days from delivery to cancel. Three things to be aware of: Doors are drilled to order and can't be returned or resold, so they're non-returnable once produced. Cabinets must be unassembled and in original packaging. Once a QuickCab unit is built it can't be returned to stock, and we'll need to reduce any refund accordingly. Appliances must be unused and sealed in their original packaging. Return carriage is at your cost and a full kitchen is a pallet-sized consignment. We can arrange collection and deduct it from your refund if that's easier. Buying as a business? Trade and business orders are covered by our standard terms rather than consumer cancellation rights. Get in touch before ordering if you have any questions. Damaged or faulty Always our cost. Check your delivery on arrival and let us know within 48 hours of anything damaged in transit, and we'll replace it. Frequently Asked Questions 1. What's included in the kitchen package?

Can I add appliances to the kitchen package? Yes. An optional appliance pack adds a 60cm single oven, a 60cm hob and a 60cm chimney extractor hood. Choose Pack 1 for a stainless steel 4-burner gas hob, or Pack 2 for a 4-zone black glass ceramic hob. 3. Do you supply oven and appliance housings? Yes. A 600mm under-oven housing and a 600mm larder appliance housing are both available within the nine unit package. Select either in place of a standard unit and the price doesn't change. 4. Can I choose different sizes for each unit? Yes. Pick any width from our standard range for every unit in the package, and the price doesn't change. 5. What sizes do the units come in? Single base and wall units are available in 150, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500 and 600mm. The double base unit comes in 700, 800, 900 and 1000mm. Drawer packs and larder units come in 300, 400, 500 and 600mm. 6. What size kitchen does the 9 unit package cover? At standard widths it covers roughly a 3 metre base run and a 1.8 metre wall run, plus a full height larder. That suits most two and three bed rentals, flats and HMO kitchens. 7. How many worktops are included? Two full 3000 x 600 x 38mm postformed lengths, 6 metres in total, enough for a run and a return. Square edge finishes are available as an optional upgrade. 8. Are the drawers and hinges soft close? Yes, both. Soft close hinges on every door and soft close runners on every drawer, included as standard rather than charged as an upgrade. 9. What colour are the cabinets? White as standard, which works behind any door colour. Oak and other carcass colours are available, give us a call and we'll quote it. 10. What's the difference between the Windsor and Cavallo doors? Both are five-piece shaker doors. Windsor is included as standard and comes in White, Light Grey, Dust Grey and Indigo. Cavallo is our Italian-made range, available as an optional upgrade, with V-groove detailing and nine colours including sage and fir green. 11. Are these kitchen units suitable for an HMO? Yes. The rigid QuickCab construction and soft close hardware are built for heavy daily use, which is exactly what a shared household delivers. 12. Do you supply kitchens to landlords with multiple properties? Yes. Get in touch about volume pricing if you're fitting more than one kitchen. 13. How long do the cabinets take to assemble? Around two minutes each. The cam and dowels come pre-inserted and no tools are needed, so the full nine unit package takes roughly twenty minutes. 14. Do I need a kitchen fitter? Assembly is designed to be done without trade experience. Fixing units to the wall, and any plumbing, gas or electrical work, should be carried out by a competent tradesperson. Gas hobs must be installed by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
