Oak framed kitchen extensions

Extensions

Adding an oak frame kitchen extension is a sure-fire way to maximise visual warmth and at the same time, add some much needed space and a little timeless elegance.

A kitchen extension can transform a cramped, awkward space into a large, welcoming, open space. Somewhere the whole family can enjoy. Kitchens are so much more than a cooking area nowadays – they are spaces for socialising, living, dining and even doing homework. This multi-functional addition will not only add space and value to your property, it will add a wonderful warmth and character to your home.

Our kitchen extensions suit both traditional and contemporary styles. How much oak you would like to incorporate is completely your choice.

3 ideas to inspire your oak framed kitchen extension project

1. Focus on high impact features

You don’t need lots of oak on show to create a characterful kitchen extension. Reserving oak for high impact features such as exposed trusses and using a hidden softwood frame in the walls is a great way to create a more contemporary look – and at the same time, save money. The beauty of an oak frame is that by the nature of the product, you’re guaranteed a characterful kitchen extension even if you scale back the volume of oak.

 

2. Let the light in

A striking, full height, glazed gable using our unique in-frame glazing can achieve uninterrupted, floor-to-ceiling views that flood your home with natural light while creating a seamless link between your home and its surroundings. Bi-fold doors can be incorporated to open up the space during the summer months.

 

3. Use the oak frame to create zones

The oak frame can be designed to create zones within an open plan kitchen extension, separating the main cooking area with dining and socialising areas.
