1200 mm White Oak Kitchen Display Cabinet with Reeded Glass and Shelf LED

Glass display cabinets came back into kitchen specification for a reason that has nothing to do with display: they are the only cabinet type that lets a run of closed doors stop being a wall. The problem with the clear-glass version is that it turns the kitchen into a shop window — every mismatched mug and half-empty packet is on show, and the client blames the cabinet. Reeded glass solves exactly that. The 4 mm tempered pane is rolled with vertical ribs, so the contents read as colour and shape and nothing else, while the warm LED behind it turns the cabinet into the light source for the end of the run. This is the second-generation version of the display cabinet in our kitchen programme: the first used an anthracite aluminium frame and clear glass; this one is a solid white oak frame with reeded glass, a 22 mm face frame, brass knobs, and a base cupboard below that carries the weight and hides the things that should not be seen. The frame is what makes it work in a painted or oak kitchen rather than only in a modern one, and the base is what stops a 2000 mm tall glass box from looking like a vitrine.

  • 1200 mm W x 400 mm D x 2000 mm H — upper display section 1200 x 400 x 1180 mm with two reeded-glass doors, lower base cupboard 1200 x 400 x 780 mm with two solid oak doors; 900 mm and 1500 mm widths on the same door and shelf programme
  • 4 mm reeded tempered safety glass to EN 12150, vertical ribbing at 6 mm pitch, set into a rebate in a 22 mm solid white oak face frame — the glass sits behind the frame rather than in a clip-on aluminium profile, so no exposed edge and no metal line to date the cabinet
  • Solid white oak frame and door stiles at 22 mm, with 18 mm white oak veneered panels and a 3 mm even reveal; the same cabinet is available in oak veneer throughout for a 20 to 25 percent material saving, and in ash, walnut or painted MDF on the same tooling
  • Four adjustable 18 mm white oak shelves on a 32 mm drilled system, rated 15 kg each, with a 3000K LED strip recessed into a routed channel under the front edge of every shelf so the light washes down the back of the cabinet instead of into the client's eyes
  • 8 W/m LED strip at CRI 90+ behind an opal diffuser, dimmable, with a magnetic door switch and a 24V driver in a ventilated box behind the base cupboard back panel — the low-voltage side is IP20 and the driver is serviceable without removing the cabinet
  • Lower base cupboard with two solid oak doors on Blum soft-close concealed hinges at 110 degrees with three-way adjustment, one adjustable shelf and a 60 mm recessed plinth with a continuous shadow gap
  • Solid brass knobs at 20 mm diameter with a satin lacquered finish on the display doors and base doors — matte black, brushed nickel and aged brass on the same drilling pattern, so a project can change finish without a new door run
  • Two-piece export packing on an 18 mm plywood carcass with a 8 mm back panel and a routed cable channel: display section carton 1260 x 470 x 1250 mm and base carton 1260 x 470 x 850 mm, foam corner blocks and a rigid face board in front of the glazed doors

Product FAQ

Why reeded glass instead of clear glass in a kitchen?
Because clear glass makes the cabinet a display case the client has to keep tidy, and reeded glass makes it a light box that only has to look right. The 6 mm vertical ribbing distorts the contents enough that plates, glasses and dry goods read as shapes and colours rather than as a specific mismatched set, so the cabinet keeps working on a Tuesday evening. The cost is that reeded glass also diffuses the LED, which is an advantage: a clear pane with a strip behind it shows the individual diodes and the shelf edge, while the ribbing spreads the light into an even wash. The trade-off is optical rather than structural — behind reeded glass you cannot read a label, so a client who wants to see exactly which jar is which should have one clear section and keep the rest reeded.
How do you clean reeded glass without leaving residue in the grooves?
With a microfibre cloth and a spray bottle, working along the ribs rather than across them, then a dry pass in the same direction. The grooves are shallow and rounded, so they do not trap water like a deep fluted profile does, but a circular wiping motion will leave a haze that shows badly under the shelf LED. The detail that matters at specification stage is access: the glass sits in a rear rebate with removable oak beading, so the inner face can be released and cleaned properly twice a year instead of being reached through the door opening. In a kitchen with a gas hob, expect to do the inner face more often — airborne grease settles on the inside of any glazed door within a metre of the cooking zone.
Does the LED strip survive steam from a kettle or a hob nearby?
The standard strip is IP20 and it is fine inside a closed cabinet, because the cabinet is a dry enclosure and the strip is behind a diffuser. It is not fine in the 600 mm zone beside a hob or a sink, where steam and spatter reach it, and for that position we specify the IP44 rated strip and a sealed driver box at the same price band. Heat is the other consideration: an 8 W/m strip in a 1180 mm cavity adds roughly 10 W of heat, which is nothing for the glass but will shorten the life of a driver buried in an unventilated void, which is why the driver sits in a ventilated service box behind the base back panel rather than in the display section. The strip itself is rated 25,000 hours at 70 percent lumen maintenance, and it is a magnetic click-fit so a failed section is a two-minute replacement without touching the wiring.
Is 1200 mm too wide for a glass cabinet, and can it be narrower?
1200 mm is the width at which two doors still open without a centre mullion and the shelves stay stiff enough not to sag under glassware; beyond that the door weight and the pane size start to drive the price. The same doors, glass, shelves and lighting run at 900 mm and at 1500 mm as a three-door version, so a project can size to the wall without a new design. What changes with width is the ratio: at 900 mm the cabinet reads as a tall cupboard, at 1500 mm it reads as a dresser and needs a longer base to carry it. Where the ceiling is low, the 2000 mm height is usually the constraint rather than the width, and we build to 1900 mm with the same proportional door split rather than squeezing the glass.
How is a glazed cabinet packed for export, and what does a 20-piece order look like?
It ships in two cartons because a 62 kg glazed upper section and a 38 kg base should not be stacked as one unit, and because a two-part cabinet is far easier to carry up a European stair than a 2000 mm assembled box. The glazed doors travel with a rigid face board and corner protectors in front of them, and the glass is retained by beading rather than by silicone, so a pane that does break in transit is replaceable without a new door. Twenty pieces can be split across 900, 1200 and 1500 mm widths, two heights and two finishes, with a RAL-matched painted version starting at 50 pcs; a mixed 20-piece order lands at roughly 22 cbm, which is close to a 20 ft container on its own. Sample lead time is 7 to 10 days, production 30 to 35 days, FOB Ningbo or CIF.
