Replace fronts – a fresh look for little money
If the kitchen has lost its shine, it does not necessarily mean a new fitted kitchen straight away. Often, a simple trick with a big impact is enough: replacing the kitchen fronts. New fronts bring a breath of fresh air into the kitchen – visually as well as functionally. And the best thing is: with a little planning, the project can be carried out very easily yourself.
Whether classic white, modern in concrete look or with a wood grain finish – with the right choice you can completely change the style of your kitchen. You do not even need to replace the old carcasses; instead, you only replace doors and panels. This preserves the basic structure and keeps the costs manageable. Ideal, then, for a quick kitchen makeover on a small budget.
What you need for replacement
In addition to the matching fronts, one thing is particularly crucial: the right furniture hinges. They connect the door and carcass – and ensure that everything sits securely and can be operated with ease.
Anyone who opts for modern variants with integrated soft-closing mechanism also adds extra convenience to the kitchen: doors close gently and quietly, with no banging. This is a real advantage, especially for frequently used cabinets.
Replacing kitchen handles – small details, big impact
If you want to upgrade your kitchen quickly and with minimal effort, it is worth taking a look at an often underestimated detail: the kitchen handles. They are not only functional, but also an important design element. With new handles, you can change the entire style of your kitchen – from classic to modern, or even minimalist or rustic.
What is particularly appealing: the replacement is done in just a few minutes and only requires a screwdriver. So it is perfect for anyone looking for an uncomplicated DIY project – even in rented accommodation.
Furniture knobs
Small, round, charming: furniture knobs are ideal for a playful, classic or Scandinavian kitchen design. They have a subtle effect and can also be positioned well on drawers and small doors.
Furniture handles
Whether curved or straight, glossy or matt – furniture handles come in many designs. They are ergonomic, easy to grip and a real eye-catcher on drawers and large doors. Particularly popular: modern bow handles made of stainless steel or matt black coated variants.
Handle strips
Do you like things clean and modern? Then handle strips are the right choice. They are usually fitted at the top of the door or drawer and create a handleless look without completely sacrificing functionality – ideal for minimalist kitchens with smooth fronts.
🔧 Everything you need – you can find it with us
In our shop, you will find a large selection of high-quality handles and knobs. Whether country house style, industrial look or modern designer appearance – there is something for every taste. And the best thing: even replacing just a few handles can completely change the appearance of your kitchen.
Hide unsightly cables with cable management systems
Hardly anything spoils the appearance of a beautiful kitchen as much as loose cables hanging around. Whether from the kettle, the coffee machine, the microwave or LED strips – cable clutter looks untidy and drags down the overall ambience. The good news: with the right cable management systems you can bring order to the chaos – without much effort.
These small helpers not only create a tidy look, but also protect the cables from dust, moisture and damage – especially important in the kitchen, where heat and splashes often play a role.
Cable grommets
Perfect for routing cables directly through the worktop or rear panel – clean, safe and visually discreet. Cable grommets ensure that power cables disappear elegantly from top to bottom, e.g. from a toaster, kettle or monitor. Many models are equipped with a lid or brush insert so that no crumbs or dust can get in. Ideal for kitchen islands, corners with lots of appliances or even for concealed socket solutions. Particularly practical: cable grommets made of stainless steel or aluminium blend stylishly into modern kitchens.
Beautify the kitchen in a rental flat – what is permitted?
Even in rental flats, you do not have to do without a beautiful, individual kitchen. Quite the opposite: many enhancements can be implemented without leaving any residue and in a rental-friendly way – without any lasting marks, without drill holes and without any trouble with the building management.
The good news: with products from our range, you can work flexibly, stylishly and in a rental-friendly way – regardless of whether using screws or adhesive mounting.
What am I allowed to change in a rented kitchen?
As a general rule: Anything that can be reversed when you move out is permitted. That means: Drilling is generally allowed, as long as you fill in drill holes again – e.g. in tile joints or walls.
The following are permitted, among others:
-
✅ Mount shelves – with drilling or also with adhesive brackets (depending on weight)
-
✅ Replace furniture handles – keep the originals and refit them when moving out
-
✅ Install cable management systems – traditionally screwed on or simply with adhesive pads
-
✅ Replace kitchen fronts – if you own the furniture, almost always permitted; otherwise ask the landlord
-
✅ Cable grommets in worktops – by arrangement, usually unproblematic in rented kitchens
-
✅ Use adhesive hooks and adhesive strips – no drilling, no marks
💡 Important:
- Changes that cannot be reversed without dismantling (e.g. drilling into tiles or alterations to the kitchen), you should discuss with your landlord.
- Always keep all original parts (handles, hinges, etc.) in a safe place – this way you can easily return the kitchen to its original state when you move out.
Conclusion: Beautiful living is possible even when renting
With a little creativity and the right products, you can enhance your kitchen as a tenant too – completely without risk. And the best part: many of the DIY solutions can simply be taken with you when you move and reused in your new home.
