High-End Design Expertise

Crafting Custom Scandi Kitchens in Sydney

Located in the heart of the home, no two Dan Kitchens are the same.

We work with our clients every step of the way to craft luxury kitchen projects that are an expression of your lifestyle. As in all our projects, we are guided by our core values: uncompromising quality, a commitment to classic, timeless aesthetics, and Danish designs principles that seek to enhance the way we live.

From your first architecturally accurate plans and images, to consultations with our interior designer, the selection of colours, and inspections of stone and raw timber, Dan Kitchens will guide you every step of the way.

With over 40 years of experience, and a skilled design team able to interpret even the most challenging and complex of briefs, Dan Kitchens knows how to create sophisticated architectural spaces that are exciting and supremely practical; aesthetically pleasing, yet designed to endure the passing of time.
Our Philosophy

The Dan Kitchens Difference

Receive realistic kitchen renders as part of your design proposal
Over the past 15 years, we’ve developed our own realistic kitchen renders to present to our customers. To this day, no kitchen company is going to the extent of Dan Kitchens. The aim of the renders is to show homeowners exactly what the proposed kitchen would like in their home, complete with chosen appliances, accurate materials, styling, real furniture, and even the view out the windows. Its as if we’ve built your proposed kitchen and taken a photograph.
These renders are a great way to communicate our ideas effectively to you, and to help you be involved in the design process. Equally, they are an excellent tool for the design team to explore layouts, materials, colours and ideas. Realistic kitchen renders are delivered as part of our Design Service.
Going against the grain, we’ve made a conscious decision at Dan Kitchens to do as much of the work internally. Outsourcing your workforce in the designing, building and installing of custom kitchens can lead to poor design, conflicting interests, communication problems and costly mistakes.
The Dan Kitchens team are experts in kitchen design, cabinetmaking, fabrication, timber joining, painting, project management and installation. We believe this is the best way to deliver a luxury custom kitchen with luxury service.

Our installers are the true ambassadors of Dan Kitchens – building, problem solving, and applying the finishing touches to your dream kitchen. 

Many of our team have been with us for over 20 years, and they are experts in their field. They will be present throughout the installation, ensuring everything goes smoothly and according to your design.

Dan Kitchens was founded in Sydney by Danish cabinet maker Vagn Madsen in 1984. Still director to this day, Madsen, with the help of the rest of the Dan Kitchens team, has crafted Danish-inspired interiors for over 40 years. Danish design is all about simplicity, minimalism, clean lines, and uncompromising functionality. Each space we craft is a balance of beauty and utility, where every detail is intentional, and materials are selected to complement both the design and the lifestyle it serves.

To this day the Dan Kitchens logo proudly flies the Danish flag in acknowledgement of our roots, and of the ethos at the heart of our designs.

As a family business that has been around for over 40 years, Dan Kitchens has gained a loyal following of discerning homeowners, spreading the word of what we do. Word-of-mouth is the main source of our new work still to this day, and because we’re a low-volume, high-quality manufacturer, we remember every homeowner and every project.
We take the servicing of all our kitchens very seriously, even the ones we built 40 years ago. If you simply need a few replacement hinges, or a cabinet needs modifying to fit a new replacement appliance, we will do all we can to assist. Evidenced by a myriad of online reviews, homeowners that build with us can feel rest assured we will be there to help with any problems, even years down the line.

Our Custom Kitchen Projects

Custom Kitchen Process

Design Service

Led by our designers, prospective clients benefit from a team of experts collaborating on your project from the get-go. Product designers, interior designers, cabinet makers and 3D artists make up this design team. We approach your project thoroughly and holistically, and when the design team is finished, you can be assured the proposed design not only looks beautiful but is well thought through.

Presentation

Once the team has finished working on your custom joinery design, your Dan Kitchens designer will organise a presentation with you at our showroom. Together with old school hand-drawn plans and elevations, your designer will also present you with material and hardware samples, as well as detailed, transparent costings and options down to the component level. For larger, custom joinery designs, photo realistic renderings may also be provided.

Contract & Insurances

Once you’re happy with the proposed design and costings, we’ll go over the paperwork thoroughly, and you sign a contract for Dan Kitchens to manufacture and install your custom joinery. We also go over any insurances required as part of the Home Building Compensation Fund and the schedule of payments.

Production

At Dan Kitchens, we scan and trace plans in a 3D modelling program, building the kitchen with appliances and room features. Then, we add materials, colours, lighting, and props to create renders. This process takes about 2 days and may involve obtaining accurate 3D models.

Onsite Check Measure

Our production manager arranges to go to your home and measure the project space. They also take photographs and make detailed notes of anything else that may be required to ensure a smooth installation process.

Installation

For most homeowners, this is the stage where you see the most activity. Led by our inhouse installation team, your existing joinery is removed (if required), the space is prepared, and the installers begin building your custom joinery from the ground up. Various specialised tradespeople will come and go (electricians, plumbers, stone masons, etc) but you can be assured that the installation team will be overseeing all work carried out. Once complete, the installation team will run you through the various aspects of your custom joinery, as well as care and maintenance.

After Sales

Our service doesn’t end when we’ve completed your joinery project. We follow up to see how you are going with your new joinery/cabinetry, and if there is anything amiss, we find a solution. If a part fails, even years down the line, we will do our utmost to help. Our many happy clients will attest to this.
