Price bands

Nobilia pricing, organised by price group.

Nobilia price groups run from 1 (lowest) to 8 or 9 (highest). The carcase specification does not change between them - the 19mm body, nBox drawers and Sensys hinges are standard across the programme. What changes is the front finish, and with it the cost of every matching panel and plinth.

Entry (Price Group 1-2)£6,000 to £10,000

Ranges: Look, Laser, Riva

Textured reproduction and matt lacquer-laminate fronts on the standard 19mm Nobilia carcase, with nBox soft-close drawers and Sensys hinges throughout. Ideal for compact galleys, first homes and smart rental refits.

Mid (Price Group 3-4)£10,000 to £14,000

Ranges: Structura, Touch, Flash, Senso, Easytouch, Natura, StoneArt, Focus, Frame, Inox

The volume band. Matt lacquer, ultra-high gloss, deep-embossed wood-effect, framed shaker and honed anti-fingerprint fronts, with wider island and tall-unit options and a fuller interior fit-out.

Upper mid (Price Group 5-6)£14,000 to £18,000

Ranges: Softline, Inline, Novalux

Perfect matt anti-fingerprint lacquers and ultra-high gloss. Wider handleless and integrated-grip options, LED plinth and shelf lighting and deeper interior organisation.

Premium (Price Group 7-9)£18,000+

Ranges: Cascada, Nordic, Sylt, Pura

Genuine painted lacquer, honed matt and premium shaker fronts at the top of the Nobilia programme, usually specified with tall unit walls, integrated appliances and BORA or Quooker.

Often missed

Matching panels and plinths change the price more than people expect

Every kitchen has visible parts that are not doors: end panels on the run, island cladding, plinths under the base units, cornices and pelmets, and the return panels either side of tall units. On a well specified Nobilia kitchen those parts are ordered in the same finish as the fronts, so the colour, sheen and surface texture read as one continuous material.

The cost implication is simple. If your doors sit in a higher price group - a genuine lacquer, a honed anti-fingerprint matt, a deep-embossed wood-effect - then the matching panels and plinths are produced in that same finish and carry the same price group. On an island-led layout with tall unit walls, matching panelwork can be a meaningful share of the cabinet total.

There is a cheaper route. Many Nobilia colours are also available as a standard laminate panel and plinth in a close colour match. It reduces the panel cost noticeably, and in a matt, low-sheen colour the difference is often hard to spot. On a textured or high-sheen front, though, the laminate will not reproduce the door texture, and the mismatch shows most where raking daylight crosses an island end panel.

Our advice: specify matching finish panels anywhere the eye lands - island ends, tall unit returns, peninsula backs - and consider laminate for concealed plinths and low-visibility runs. We price both options on your quote so the saving is visible rather than assumed.

Cost drivers

What actually moves the number

Front finish and price group

The single biggest lever. Moving the same layout from a reproduction laminate front to a genuine lacquer front can add 30% to 50% to the cabinet cost without changing a single unit.

Matching panels, plinths and cornices

Covered in detail below. Specifying every visible panel in the door finish protects the look but carries the door price group.

Cabinet count and layout

Tall unit walls, larder units and island runs cost more per metre than base and wall runs. Islands also add end panels and worktop overhang.

Handles vs handleless

Integrated grip rails, J-pull and true handleless gola profiles carry a premium over a drilled front with a surface handle.

Worktops

Laminate is included cheaply, quartz and ceramic sit well above it, and full-height splashbacks or waterfall ends add materially to the templated cost.

Appliances

Quoted separately. Packages from Bosch, Siemens, Neff, Miele, BORA, Elica and Quooker typically add £3,000 to £12,000.

Why our Nobilia pricing sits below showroom pricing

LindenHaus is an authorised UK importer ordering directly from Nobilia in Verl and shipping through a single UK logistics operation. There is no display stock to write down and no commissioned sales floor to fund, so a like-for-like specification can be up to 30% cheaper than a high-street quotation. The kitchen is identical: same factory, same finishes, same hardware, same manufacturer warranty.

In place of a showroom you get CAD plans and photorealistic 3D renders of your own layout from a senior designer, plus real door and material samples to order for a small charge, refundable against your order.

FAQ

Nobilia cost questions

How much does a Nobilia kitchen cost in the UK?
A compact Nobilia kitchen in an entry price group such as Look, Laser or Riva typically lands between £6,000 and £10,000 supply-only, inc VAT. A medium to large family kitchen in the mid groups (Structura, Touch, Flash, Senso, Easytouch, Frame) usually sits between £10,000 and £14,000. Premium programmes such as Cascada, Nordic, Sylt and Pura start around £18,000. Appliances and worktops are quoted separately.
Are Nobilia kitchens expensive?
Compared with UK high-street retailers, no. Nobilia is Europe's largest kitchen manufacturer, so the scale of the factory in Verl keeps unit costs low while the build specification stays German: 19mm carcases, nBox soft-close drawers and Sensys hinges as standard. Bought factory-direct through LindenHaus, a like-for-like Nobilia specification can be up to 30% cheaper than a showroom quotation.
What do Nobilia price groups mean?
Nobilia organises its programmes into price groups running from 1 (lowest) up to 8 or 9 (highest). The carcase, drawer boxes and hinges are the same across the whole programme. What moves the price group is the front: laminate and reproduction finishes sit low, matt anti-fingerprint lacquer and high gloss sit mid, and genuine lacquer, veneer and specialist textures sit at the top.
Do matching panels and plinths add much to a Nobilia kitchen?
They can, and they are the line most quotes get wrong. End panels, plinths, cornices and island cladding should normally be ordered in the same finish as the doors so the texture and sheen match exactly. On lacquer and specialist-texture ranges those matching parts are priced in the same higher price group as the fronts. Many Nobilia colours are also available as a simpler laminate panel, which reduces cost but will not match the door texture perfectly under raking light.
How long does a Nobilia kitchen take to arrive?
Typical lead time from order confirmation to UK delivery is 6 to 8 weeks. See our delivery guide for the full timeline.
Can I see a Nobilia door before I order?
Yes. Door and material samples are available to order for a small charge, refundable against your order, so you can hold the real finish rather than judge from a printed swatch.
