AKL Joinery in Kensington

Handcrafted joinery,
delivered to Kensington

Kensington's architecture sets an exceptionally high bar. The Victorian and Edwardian townhouses of W8 and W14, the grand lateral apartments overlooking communal gardens, the mews houses and Holland Park villas — all demand joinery that is not just well made, but intelligently designed for the specific context.

We work across Kensington and Holland Park delivering bespoke joinery to homeowners, architects and interior designers. Our Kensington commissions have included full kitchen fits in double-fronted townhouses, floor-to-ceiling fitted libraries with rolling ladders, bespoke oak staircases for lateral extensions, and fully panelled reception rooms in period apartments.

The scale of Kensington properties often allows us to be more ambitious than in smaller homes — full room panelling schemes, double-height hallway staircases, kitchen larder rooms with bespoke interior fitting. We relish these commissions and bring the same standard of craft to every detail, large or small.

We visit W8 and W14 regularly for consultations and have a strong network of contractors, architects and interior designers operating across the area.

Common Questions

Joinery in Kensington, answered

Do you work in Holland Park as well as Kensington?

Yes — Holland Park is one of our most active areas. The large detached and semi-detached properties there are particularly well suited to ambitious joinery commissions — full room libraries, bespoke kitchen extensions and statement staircase replacements.

Can you match existing joinery in a period Kensington property?

Yes. Matching existing mouldings, paint colours and timber species is something we specialise in. We can replicate period profiles precisely — either sourcing from specialist moulding suppliers or running bespoke profiles on our CNC machine.

What's the process for getting a quote?

We start with a site visit to take measurements and photographs and understand the brief in full. We then prepare detailed design drawings and a fixed-price itemised quote, usually within 5–7 working days.

Do you offer supply and install, or supply only?

Both. We can supply joinery for installation by your own contractor, or provide a complete supply and install service with our own team. We discuss the best approach for each project.
