About Caldaro
What it's actually like.
A proper five-piece shaker frame in real timber: the door most people picture when they say "shaker". It's 20mm thick and painted, and the soft-close hinges and drawers are standard.
Fir Green, Reed Green and Fjord are the standout heritage colours. Ivory, Porcelain and Light Grey are the lighter routes. Matt gold handles and taps look good against the greens.

Honest view
Who Caldaro suits, and who it doesn't.
Worth knowing
- A real timber door is priced as one, so it sits in the top door price band
- Painted timber can show fine lines at the frame joints as the wood moves with heat and humidity, which is normal for the material
- Fir Green and Indigo show dust and marks more than the paler colours
Cost and practicality
What Caldaro costs.
Caldaro sits in the £££ (premium) price band: real timber doors, at the top end for door cost. That compares door against door, it isn't a quote. A full kitchen from design to the final coat of paint is from £9,000 inc. VAT; if you've already bought your doors, full project management of the fit is from £3,000 inc. VAT, or a dry-fit only install from £2,000 inc. VAT. The exact figure comes at your survey.
Frequently asked
Caldaro questions, answered honestly.
What's the difference between Caldaro and Como?
Both are shaker doors with the same frame shape. Caldaro is 20mm real timber, painted. Como is 22mm MDF with a woodgrain-effect foil, so it costs noticeably less. Caldaro is the one for genuine timber; Como suits a tighter budget.
