High Gloss Kitchens

High Gloss Kitchens

High gloss kitchens; gloss is an optical property of a material, a measurement of its ability to reflect light. This is determined by the topography of the material surface and the colour of the surface. Smooth surfaces reflect more light, and do so more consistently than un-even surfaces. The High gloss kitchens that LWK supply aim to provide an optimum solution to reflective quality, durability and price. As such we utilise several different types of high gloss door finish. The reflective quality of the finish is of greater importance on darker colours than lighter colours. Certain finishes will show an "orange peel" effect on darker colours that isn't evident on lighter colours; hence not every colour is available in every finish.

High Gloss Lacquer Kitchens

High gloss lacquer kitchens are manufactured by repeatedly spraying a high gloss coloured lacquer to a door. The lacquer dries by solvent evaporation to create an extremely hard wearing and durable finish. Utilising robotic technology, the doors are spray coated five times within a high pressure vestibule. The repeated coating of the doors produces an appreciable depth of colour, and the use of progressively finer coats produces an extremely smooth surface finish, with mirror quality reflections for the ultimate high gloss finish. The robots ensure every section of every door receives the exact same depth of coating and in doing so this greatly improves the quality of the finish over doors of this type which are finished by hand.

High Gloss Foil Kitchens

High gloss laminates are the least expensive of our high gloss kitchen finishes, and we have installed some truly stunning kitchens using these materials. Our high gloss laminates are manufactured by vacuum-forming a high gloss, semi-molten foil over a pre-machined substrate, which is then pressed and adhered together. As such, the foil is continuous on all the outward facing surfaces of the kitchen door. These doors are 19mm thick with a 3mm corner radius. The doors are expressly designed to prevent delaminating of the foil from the substrate, and prevent moisture ingress into the door. The quality of our high gloss laminates is such that many of our clients can't tell the difference between these and our more expensive door types on the lighter colours.
