Nothing to catch on

A handleless kitchen has no handles on the doors. Instead, a recessed rail runs along the top of each door and drawer, so you open them with your fingertips. It gives a calm, modern look and suits open-plan rooms where the kitchen is always on show.

How handleless works

True handleless, with a recessed rail

We make true handleless kitchens with a recessed rail built into the cabinets, in black, gold or nickel, so the doors stay completely flat. Tall units and larders can use push-to-open doors instead, and drawers glide shut with soft-close runners.

In detail

Handleless kitchens in Peterborough

ABJ Kitchens & Bedrooms designs, makes and fits handleless kitchens for homes across Peterborough and the surrounding towns. Every cabinet is made to measure in our own workshop, so the rails line up and the doors sit flush from one end of the run to the other.

Handleless doors pair well with quartz and stone worktops, waterfall islands and integrated appliances. See our handleless island case study, compare with our Shaker kitchens, or try the cost guide on our kitchens page.

What is a handleless kitchen?

A kitchen with no handles on the doors. A recessed rail along the top of each door or drawer lets you open it with your fingertips, so the fronts stay flat and clean.

What is true handleless?

True handleless means the rail is built into the cabinet itself, rather than a lip shaped into the edge of each door. We make true handleless kitchens with rails in black, gold or nickel.

Are handleless kitchens practical?

Yes. The doors open easily from the rail, soft-close runners stop drawers slamming, and with no handles there is nothing to catch clothes on or knock into.

Matt or gloss?

Both work. Gloss reflects light and suits smaller or darker rooms, while matt hides fingerprints better. We bring samples of both to the design visit.

How much does a handleless kitchen cost?

A compact bespoke kitchen, made and fitted, starts from around £2,500, and a typical medium kitchen with quartz worktops comes to around £7,000 to £9,500. Your exact price comes with your 3D design.

Which areas do you cover?

We are based in Peterborough and work across an 80-mile radius, including Stamford, Oundle, Market Deeping, Bourne, Spalding, Huntingdon, St Ives, Ely, Wisbech, Oakham and Cambridge.
