The kitchen cabinet designs and prices in Kenya vary depending on the cabinet material, design, size, finish, hardware, storage accessories, countertop and installation requirements.
Kitchen cabinets form one of the most important parts of a kitchen because they provide storage while also determining much of the room’s appearance. A modern kitchen with flat-panel cabinets will have a different cost from a classic kitchen with Shaker doors, while a premium handleless kitchen with specialised hardware can require a substantially higher budget.
For this reason, you should not compare kitchen cabinet quotations based on price alone. You also need to compare the material, cabinet construction, door finish, hardware, countertop and installation included in each quotation.
At SUIMAS Interior Designers, we design and install custom kitchen cabinets for apartments, bungalows, maisonettes, townhouses, villas and other properties across Kenya.
This guide explains the main kitchen cabinet designs and prices in Kenya, including cabinet styles, materials, running-foot prices, kitchen-size examples, hardware and factors that affect the final quotation.

Kitchen Cabinet Prices in Kenya at a Glance
There is no single price for kitchen cabinets because different specifications require different materials and construction methods.
As an indicative planning guide, fitted kitchen cabinets can fall within these ranges:
| Cabinet Specification | Approximate Price per Running Foot |
|---|---|
| Basic laminate/blockboard | KES 12,000–16,000 |
| MDF/quality laminate | KES 14,000–22,000 |
| Marine plywood + MDF fronts | KES 16,000–28,000 |
| Acrylic/high-gloss | KES 22,000–32,000+ |
| Premium custom cabinetry | KES 28,000–40,000+ |
These figures should be treated as indicative planning ranges, not fixed quotations.
The final price depends on the cabinet construction, number of units, door finish, hardware, storage accessories, countertop and installation.
Current Kenyan cabinet pricing guides similarly place fitted cabinetry broadly around KES 12,000–28,000 per running foot for common specifications.
What Does a Kitchen Cabinet Price Include?
This is one of the most important questions to ask before accepting a quotation.
A fitted cabinet quotation may include some or all of the following:
- Cabinet carcass
- Cabinet doors
- Shelves
- Hinges
- Drawer runners
- Handles
- Soft-close mechanisms
- Countertop
- Installation
However, not every quotation includes all these items.
Some quotations may exclude:
- Countertop
- Sink
- Tap
- Appliances
- Backsplash
- Plumbing
- Electrical work
- Lighting
- Delivery
- Special storage accessories
Therefore, always request an itemised quotation.
How Kitchen Cabinets Are Measured in Kenya
Kitchen cabinets are commonly quoted by running foot or linear metre.
Running Foot
One running foot represents one foot of cabinet run along the wall.
For example:
10 running feet = approximately 3.05 metres
Linear Metre
One linear metre equals approximately:
3.28 running feet
Therefore:
10 linear metres ≈ 32.8 running feet
However, cabinet quotations can use different measurement methods.
For example, some suppliers may price lower cabinets separately from upper cabinets, while others may provide a combined fitted rate.
Always confirm exactly what the quoted unit represents.
Kitchen Cabinet Cost per Linear Metre
If a contractor quotes per linear metre instead of running foot, the approximate conversion is:
| Specification | Approximate Cost per Linear Metre |
|---|---|
| Budget | KES 39,000–52,000 |
| Mid-range | KES 52,000–72,000 |
| Mid-premium | KES 65,000–92,000 |
| Premium | KES 92,000–131,000+ |
These figures are derived from common running-foot planning ranges and should be used for budgeting rather than as a fixed market tariff.
The important point is to compare equivalent specifications.
Kitchen Cabinet Designs in Kenya
There are several cabinet styles available to homeowners.
The cabinet door style can dramatically change the appearance of the kitchen even when the basic layout remains the same.
1. Flat-Panel Kitchen Cabinets
Flat-panel cabinets have simple, flat doors without raised decorative detailing.
They are commonly used in:
- Modern kitchens
- Contemporary kitchens
- Minimalist kitchens
- Apartment kitchens
- Open-plan kitchens
Price
A standard flat-panel cabinet specification can fall around:
KES 12,000–22,000 per running foot
Premium materials and hardware can increase the cost.
The simple appearance makes flat-panel cabinets a popular choice for modern interiors.
2. Handleless Kitchen Cabinets
Handleless cabinets remove conventional external handles to create a cleaner appearance.
Common systems include:
- J-pull profiles
- Integrated handles
- Recessed handles
- Push-to-open mechanisms
Price
Handleless cabinetry can cost approximately:
KES 18,000–32,000+ per running foot
depending on the cabinet material, mechanism and finish.
Handleless kitchens often work well with:
- Matte finishes
- Acrylic
- Wood-look finishes
- Two-tone designs
- Minimalist interiors
3. Shaker Kitchen Cabinets
Shaker cabinets feature a simple framed or recessed-panel door.
They can work in:
- Classic kitchens
- Modern-classic kitchens
- Contemporary kitchens
- Farmhouse-inspired kitchens
Price
A Shaker-style kitchen can cost approximately:
KES 15,000–30,000+ per running foot
depending on the door construction, material and finish.
Shaker cabinets provide a balance between decorative detailing and a clean appearance.
4. High-Gloss Kitchen Cabinets
High-gloss cabinets have reflective surfaces that can create a bright, polished appearance.
Common colours include:
- White
- Cream
- Grey
- Black
- Beige
- Selected accent colours
Price
High-gloss or acrylic cabinet finishes can cost approximately:
KES 22,000–32,000+ per running foot
Premium acrylic and specialised finishes can cost more.
They can work particularly well in modern apartments and open-plan homes.
5. Wood-Look Kitchen Cabinets
Wood-look cabinets provide the visual warmth of timber while using manufactured boards and decorative finishes.
Popular appearances include:
- Light oak
- Walnut
- Natural wood
- Dark wood
- Warm brown
Price
A wood-look cabinet specification can cost approximately:
KES 14,000–28,000+ per running foot
depending on the board, finish and hardware.
Wood-look cabinets can be combined with white, cream, black or stone-effect countertops.
6. Two-Tone Kitchen Cabinets
Two-tone cabinets use two colours or finishes.
Examples include:
- White and wood
- White and charcoal
- Grey and oak
- Cream and brown
- Navy and white
- Green and cream
The main cabinets can use one colour while the island or lower cabinets use another.
Price
Two-tone cabinetry can cost approximately:
KES 18,000–32,000+ per running foot
depending on the materials and finishes selected.
7. Glass-Front Kitchen Cabinets
Glass-front cabinets use glass panels in selected doors.
They can be used to display:
- Glassware
- Plates
- Decorative items
- Cups
- Special kitchenware
Glass-front units are usually best used selectively rather than throughout the entire kitchen.
The price depends on the cabinet frame, glass type, hardware and lighting.
8. Open-Shelving Kitchen Cabinets
Open shelving replaces some upper cabinets with exposed shelves.
This approach can make a kitchen feel lighter and more open.
Shelves can be used for:
- Plates
- Cups
- Cookbooks
- Decorative items
- Plants
- Frequently used items
However, open shelves require more regular cleaning than enclosed cabinets.
Kitchen Cabinet Designs by Layout
Cabinet prices also depend on the kitchen layout because each layout requires a different quantity and arrangement of units.
L-Shaped Kitchen Cabinets
An L-shaped kitchen uses two adjoining walls.
It can include:
- Base cabinets
- Wall cabinets
- Corner units
- Tall cabinets
- Pantry units
- Appliance housing
A standard L-shaped cabinet project can fall around:
KES 350,000–900,000+
depending on the size and specification.
U-Shaped Kitchen Cabinets
U-shaped kitchens use three walls.
They require more cabinetry than straight or L-shaped kitchens.
A U-shaped cabinet project can cost approximately:
KES 500,000–1,500,000+
for standard to premium specifications.
Large luxury kitchens can exceed this range.
Straight-Line Kitchen Cabinets
A straight-line kitchen places cabinets along one wall.
It is useful for:
- Apartments
- Studio units
- Small houses
- Compact kitchens
A basic cabinet installation may start around:
KES 150,000–300,000+
while premium specifications can cost considerably more.
Galley Kitchen Cabinets
A galley kitchen has two parallel cabinet runs.
It works well in narrow rooms.
A typical cabinet budget can fall around:
KES 300,000–700,000+
depending on the total running footage and cabinet specification.
Peninsula Kitchen Cabinets
A peninsula connects to an existing cabinet run or wall.
It can provide:
- Additional cabinets
- Breakfast seating
- Extra preparation space
- A serving counter
A peninsula can add approximately:
KES 100,000–400,000+
depending on its size and construction.
Kitchen Island Cabinets
A kitchen island adds an independent cabinet unit to the centre of the room.
It can provide:
- Drawers
- Cabinets
- Seating
- Sink
- Hob
- Storage
- Breakfast counter
A custom island can cost approximately:
KES 60,000–200,000+
depending on its size, materials and features.
A sink or hob island requires additional plumbing or electrical planning.
Kitchen Cabinet Prices by Material
The cabinet material is one of the biggest factors affecting the final price.
MDF Kitchen Cabinets
MDF provides a smooth surface and works well for painted and laminated cabinet doors.
It can be suitable for:
- Cabinet doors
- Dry cabinet areas
- Decorative finishes
However, ordinary MDF needs protection from prolonged moisture.
Indicative material-based guides place MDF cabinetry below marine plywood and solid wood in price.
Blockboard Kitchen Cabinets
Blockboard is commonly used for cabinet construction.
It can provide a practical balance between cost and structural performance.
Indicative fitted prices can fall around:
KES 12,000–18,000 per running foot
depending on the finish and overall specification.
Marine Plywood Kitchen Cabinets
Marine plywood is often considered for areas exposed to moisture.
It can be particularly useful around:
- Sink cabinets
- Dishwashing areas
- Wet zones
A marine plywood cabinet specification can cost approximately:
KES 16,000–28,000+ per running foot
depending on the doors and finish.
Solid Wood Kitchen Cabinets
Solid hardwood can provide a natural and premium appearance.
However, it normally costs more than engineered boards.
Indicative material guides place solid hardwood above MDF, blockboard and marine plywood in price.
Solid wood can be used throughout the kitchen or selectively for:
- Door fronts
- Feature cabinets
- Islands
- Decorative elements
Acrylic Kitchen Cabinets
Acrylic provides a smooth, highly polished finish.
It is particularly suitable for:
- Modern kitchens
- High-gloss kitchens
- Handleless kitchens
- Contemporary interiors
The finish normally costs more than basic laminate.
Laminate Kitchen Cabinets
Laminate is widely used because it provides many colours, textures and wood-effect designs.
It can be a practical choice for homeowners who want a modern appearance while controlling the budget.
Kitchen Cabinet Hardware Prices
Cabinet hardware affects both the price and functionality of the kitchen.
Common hardware includes:
- Hinges
- Drawer runners
- Handles
- Soft-close mechanisms
- Pull-out baskets
- Corner mechanisms
- Pantry systems
- Cutlery organisers
- Waste bins
- Lift-up systems
A budget kitchen may use standard hardware.
A premium kitchen may use full-extension drawers, soft-close systems and specialised storage mechanisms.
Individual Kitchen Cabinet Unit Prices
Some homeowners want to purchase individual units rather than a complete fitted kitchen.
Indicative custom-unit planning ranges can include:
| Cabinet Unit | Approximate Price |
|---|---|
| Standard base unit | KES 18,000–35,000 |
| Wall cabinet | KES 6,000–14,000 |
| Drawer unit | KES 22,000–45,000 |
| Corner cabinet | KES 25,000–55,000 |
| Tall pantry unit | KES 35,000–75,000 |
| Sink cabinet | KES 18,000–30,000 |
| Pull-out bin cabinet | KES 18,000–35,000 |
| Custom island | KES 60,000–200,000+ |
These figures depend on dimensions, material, hardware and finish.
10×10 Kitchen Cabinet Cost in Kenya
A 10×10 kitchen is a common reference size.
Depending on the layout, it may require approximately 20 running feet of cabinet run.
Indicative cabinet budgets include:
| Specification | Approximate Budget |
|---|---|
| Budget | KES 240,000–320,000 |
| Mid-range | KES 320,000–440,000 |
| Premium | KES 440,000–560,000+ |
These figures should be checked against the actual cabinet arrangement because a 10×10 room does not automatically mean exactly 20 running feet of cabinetry.
12×12 Kitchen Cabinet Cost in Kenya
A 12×12 kitchen provides more room for cabinetry and storage.
A typical layout can require approximately 24 running feet of cabinet runs, depending on doors, appliances and the exact configuration.
Indicative cabinet budgets can range from:
KES 300,000–700,000+
Premium cabinetry with extensive storage and high-end countertops can cost considerably more.
Kitchen Cabinet Cost for a Small Apartment
Apartment kitchens often use:
- Straight-line layouts
- Compact L-shaped layouts
- Galley layouts
A small apartment kitchen can require approximately:
KES 120,000–400,000+
for cabinets depending on the number of units and specification.
Full-height cabinets can help increase storage without increasing the kitchen footprint.
Kitchen Cabinet Cost for a Large Family Kitchen
Larger family kitchens require more cabinetry.
They may include:
- Tall pantry units
- Multiple drawer stacks
- Corner storage
- Large wall cabinets
- Island
- Appliance housing
- Utility storage
A large family kitchen can require:
KES 500,000–1,500,000+
for cabinets and related cabinet components, depending on the specification.
Kitchen Cabinet Cost for a Luxury Kitchen
Luxury cabinetry may include:
- Bespoke dimensions
- Premium boards
- Acrylic or lacquer finishes
- Veneer
- Solid wood
- Premium stone countertops
- Imported hardware
- Integrated appliances
- Special storage mechanisms
A luxury custom cabinet project can reach:
KES 2,000,000–4,000,000+
depending on the kitchen size and specification.
Kitchen Countertop Cost
The countertop is normally priced separately unless the cabinet quotation specifically states that it is included.
Indicative prices include:
| Countertop | Approximate Price |
|---|---|
| Laminate | KES 2,500–5,000/running foot |
| Granite | KES 6,500–12,000/running foot |
| Quartz | KES 9,000–18,000+/running foot |
| Premium stone/sintered surface | KES 18,000+/running foot |
The final price depends on thickness, edge profile, cut-outs, installation and material selection.
Current Kenyan kitchen pricing guides also identify laminate, granite and quartz as major countertop choices with significantly different price points.
Kitchen Cabinet Accessories
Storage accessories can increase the cost of a kitchen but also improve usability.
Popular accessories include:
Magic Corner
Useful for difficult L-shaped cabinet corners.
Pull-Out Pantry
Provides vertical storage in narrow spaces.
Bottle Pull-Out
Useful for oils, sauces and bottles.
Cutlery Organiser
Keeps utensils organised.
Waste Bin System
Integrates waste storage inside the cabinet.
Tall Larder
Provides large-volume food storage.
Soft-Close Drawers
Provide smoother and quieter operation.
Lift-Up Doors
Useful for selected wall cabinets.
The right accessories depend on how you use the kitchen.
What Affects Kitchen Cabinet Prices in Kenya?
Several factors determine the final quotation.
1. Cabinet Material
MDF, blockboard, plywood, acrylic, laminate and solid wood have different costs.
2. Kitchen Size
More cabinet runs require more materials and labour.
3. Cabinet Height
Full-height cabinets require more materials than standard wall units.
4. Door Finish
A basic laminate finish will usually cost less than specialised acrylic, lacquer or veneer.
5. Hardware
Premium hinges, runners and storage systems increase the budget.
6. Number of Drawers
Drawers require additional hardware and construction compared with simple shelves.
7. Corner Units
Special corner mechanisms cost more than standard cabinets.
8. Kitchen Island
An island adds cabinetry and countertop.
9. Countertop
Quartz and premium stone surfaces can significantly increase the total.
10. Installation
Complex sites and difficult access can increase installation requirements.
11. Appliance Integration
Built-in appliances require accurate cabinet dimensions and specialised housing.
12. Plumbing and Electrical Changes
Relocating services can add additional labour and materials.
Custom Kitchen Cabinets vs Ready-Made Cabinets
Homeowners can generally choose between ready-made units and custom cabinetry.
Ready-Made Cabinets
Advantages include:
- Lower unit cost
- Faster availability
- Standardised dimensions
However, they may leave gaps where wall dimensions do not match standard cabinet sizes.
Custom Kitchen Cabinets
Custom cabinets are designed around the actual room.
They can:
- Use corners more effectively
- Extend to the ceiling
- Accommodate unusual walls
- Integrate appliances
- Provide specialised storage
- Match the homeowner’s preferred finish
Custom cabinetry may cost more initially, but it can provide better use of the available space.
How to Choose Kitchen Cabinet Material
Do not choose cabinet material based on price alone.
Consider:
- Moisture
- Heat
- Daily use
- Cleaning
- Cabinet location
- Expected lifespan
- Budget
- Desired finish
For example, sink areas require more attention to moisture protection than dry upper cabinets.
Material selection should therefore be made according to the location and use of each cabinet.
Modern Kitchen Cabinet Design Ideas
Modern kitchen cabinets can include:
- Handleless doors
- Full-height cabinets
- Two-tone colours
- Wood-effect finishes
- Matte surfaces
- High-gloss surfaces
- Integrated appliances
- Hidden pantry storage
- Large drawers
- Under-cabinet lighting
- Minimal open shelving
- Island storage
A modern kitchen does not need to use every feature.
The best approach is to combine the features that provide the most practical value for your space.
Classic Kitchen Cabinet Design Ideas
Classic kitchens can include:
- Shaker doors
- Panelled cabinets
- Decorative handles
- Glass-front cabinets
- Warm wood tones
- Neutral colours
- Traditional detailing
A modern-classic approach can combine Shaker cabinets with contemporary countertops, lighting and appliances.
Kitchen Cabinet Colour Ideas
Popular cabinet colours include:
- White
- Cream
- Beige
- Grey
- Charcoal
- Black
- Dark green
- Navy
- Natural wood
- Walnut
Two-tone combinations can also add contrast.
For example:
White upper cabinets + wood lower cabinets
or:
Light cabinets + darker island
The choice should also coordinate with the countertop, flooring, backsplash and surrounding rooms.
Kitchen Cabinet Renovation
You may not always need to replace every cabinet.
Depending on their condition, you could renovate by changing:
- Cabinet doors
- Handles
- Countertop
- Backsplash
- Lighting
- Selected storage systems
- Cabinet finishes
If the cabinet carcasses remain structurally sound, this approach can reduce the cost of a kitchen transformation.
For broader property renovations, see our Renovation Services.
3D Kitchen Cabinet Design
A 3D design allows you to see the proposed cabinet arrangement before fabrication.
You can review:
- Cabinet colours
- Door profiles
- Island position
- Countertop
- Appliances
- Storage
- Lighting
- Flooring
- Backsplash
This can reduce misunderstandings because the proposed design becomes easier to visualise.
Explore our 3D Design and Layout Planning service.
What Should a Kitchen Cabinet Quotation Include?
Before accepting a quotation, ask the contractor to specify:
- Cabinet dimensions
- Number of units
- Carcass material
- Door material
- Door finish
- Shelves
- Hinges
- Drawer runners
- Handles
- Soft-close systems
- Storage accessories
- Countertop
- Sink unit
- Appliance housing
- Delivery
- Installation
- Warranty
- Exclusions
This makes it easier to compare quotations accurately.
A cheaper quotation may simply contain fewer items.

Cabinet design needs to coordinate with:
- Plumbing
- Electrical points
- Windows

- Ceiling
- Flooring
- Appliances

Planning these elements together reduces the risk of expensive changes later.
For complete building projects, explore our Building and Construction Services.

- Breakfast counters
- Separate dirty kitchens
The cabinet design should match the floor plan and the way the household uses the space.
For wider home interiors, see our Residential Interior Design.
Kitchen Cabinets for Commercial Kitchens

- Stainless-steel units
- Heavy-duty storage
- Food preparation areas
- Equipment housing
- Service counters
- Specialised commercial equipment
For restaurants, hotels and other food-service businesses, explore Commercial Kitchen Solutions.
How to Save on Kitchen Cabinet Costs

Avoid moving plumbing and electrical points unnecessarily.
Use Premium Materials Selectively
Premium materials can be used in visible or high-use areas.
Prioritise Storage
Invest in the storage mechanisms you will actually use.
Reduce Decorative Complexity
Simple cabinet shapes can reduce fabrication costs.
Compare Complete Specifications
