In short
A lovely door with a stark white inside can make a kitchen look cheap. We do a timber effect on the inside with nickel shelf inserts, and we do not drill shelf holes you will never use. With a green kitchen and an oak effect inside, we can edge it in green so nothing shows through.

What is said in the video
You know when you've got this really lovely door and then you open it and inside is just stark white? Makes it look really cheap doesn't it? So we do a lovely timber effect on the inside, nice nickel shelf inserts and we don't pepper it with shelf holes you're never going to use. Why would you even put a shelf down there?
And if you're having a green kitchen with an oak effect on the inside we can edge it in green so nothing shows through when the doors are shut.
