Introducing Aalborg Oak: A Little More Nature, Every Day

Some of the best ideas come from bringing together things you already love. That's exactly how Aalborg Oak came to be.

Aalborg, our modern micro-shaker door, has quickly become a favourite in homes across the country. Our genuine European Oak finish has won hearts on Mornington Shaker and Mornington Vale. Now, for the first time, we've brought the two together, and the result is a kitchen that feels both fresh and wonderfully familiar.

Introducing Aalborg Oak: Bringing the outside in

Some of the best ideas come from bringing together things you already love. 

Aalborg, the modern micro-shaker door, has quickly become a favourite with our customers in London and Yorkshire. Genuine European Oak has long been one of the most-loved finishes in kitchen design. Now the two come together in a kitchen that feels fresh, warm and wonderfully familiar.

Real oak for real homes

Shaker kitchens are everywhere, from London terraces to York townhouses and Yorkshire cottages. Real oak is what makes Aalborg Oak different. Each door is finished in genuine European Oak, chosen for its clean, refined grain with minimal knots.

Oak has a natural warmth that changes throughout the day. It glows softly in the morning light and feels cosy on a grey winter evening. A tinted lacquer brings out the grain's character and protects it from fading, so it keeps looking beautiful for years.

Classic shaker, modern edge

Aalborg is a true 5-piece shaker door with a slim 20mm frame. It suits the period character of a Victorian terrace in Wimbledon or a Georgian townhouse in York just as well as a new-build home, giving the timeless shaker look a cleaner, more modern feel.

Making the most of every space

Whether it's a compact London galley, a side-return extension or a spacious Yorkshire farmhouse kitchen, Aalborg Oak is designed to work hard:

• Integrated appliances sit behind matching doors, keeping open-plan spaces calm and seamless

• Clever internal storage and drawers fit perfectly, so every cupboard earns its place

• Handleless options create a sleek, streamlined look

• Full-height larder doors in 1000mm and 1200mm widths turn a single wall into a pantry, drinks station or coffee corner

• Single-frame larder doors give tall units a clean, contemporary finish
