MKM's Accent Kitchens brochure is here for 2025/26 and while most kitchen brands speak to just one audience - either the homeowner dreaming of their ideal space or the installer focused on efficiency. The Accent Collection bridges that gap. It offers style and flexibility for homeowners, while delivering the quality and simplicity trade professionals rely on.
What Is the Accent Kitchen Range?
Available at MKM branches nationwide, the Accent Kitchens range offers two distinct collections designed to meet different needs and budgets. The main Accent Collection features over 50 door styles and finishes, from modern matt slabs to traditional timber shakers. For those seeking contemporary minimalism, the standout Modus Range delivers MKM's first true handleless kitchen in the Accent Range.
What sets Accent Kitchens apart is their paint-to-order capability. Selected styles can be finished in any colour from a palette of over 2,600 options, including shades from major paint brands. This offers homeowners virtually unlimited possibilities for personalisation. All units are constructed from 18mm panels with 18mm back panels in base units and 8mm in wall units. These units are factory-assembled, rigid cabinets that arrive ready for installation.
Why Homeowners Love Accent Kitchens
Today’s homeowners are looking for kitchens that express their personality while standing the test of time. The Accent range offers the perfect blend of style and customisation. Whether you're drawn to the clean lines of the Lucente J-pull handleless design or prefer the warmth of Cambridge's real timber shakers, there's a style to match every vision. The paint-to-order service particularly appeals to trend-conscious homeowners. Autumn and winter 2025 are seeing a shift towards earthy tones and bold contrast units, and Accent kitchens can be tailored to capture these movements perfectly. Multi-functional kitchen islands in statement colours create focal points that evolve with changing tastes.
Most MKM branches feature a kitchen showroom where you can see and touch the products. Their in-branch design service also helps you visualise your space with photo-realistic 3D renders, removing the guesswork from major design decisions and showing you exactly how your chosen colours and styles will look in your home.

Designed for Installers - Built for Ease
Professional installers know that efficiency equals profitability. Accent Kitchens are engineered with this principle in mind. Factory-assembled, rigid cabinets eliminate time-consuming on-site assembly, while consistent quality standards reduce callbacks and warranty issues.
The ranges, including the Modus True Handleless range particularly appeal to installers because units come with labelled components and clear instructions, reducing the learning curve for new ranges.
Local MKM branches provide dedicated account support, ensuring installers have access to technical expertise and quick problem resolution. This local backing transforms MKM from a supplier into a genuine business partner.
Behind the Brochure - What You'll Find
The Accent Kitchens brochure serves different purposes for different users. Homeowners can browse style inspiration and explore the full spectrum of door, drawer, and colour options. The comprehensive planning advice section helps them understand upgrade possibilities like soft-close mechanisms and internal storage solutions.
For trade professionals, the same brochure becomes a specification tool. Technical details, component lists, and installation guidance allow accurate quoting and project planning. This dual functionality means one resource serves both audiences without compromise.
