Can any deVOL kitchen owners help with cabinet front measurements?

Hi! I’m having a bespoke kitchen made in France, inspired by deVOL’s Classic English Kitchen, and I’m hoping a deVOL owner can help me with a couple of measurements.
If you have a Classic English Kitchen, would you mind measuring the width of the border/frame around the recessed detailing on your cabinet fronts — both on the sides and at the top/bottom — as well as the overall thickness of the front/door?
I’m particularly trying to work out whether the border is around 60 mm (2⅜") wide, as I’d like to get the proportions as close to the original as possible.
Thank you!

How about designing the proportions to suit your property/space. Attempting to directly copy a bespoke anything is rarely successful. Make it your own and make it appropriate.

Agree with @Tortephant. I love the deVOL look but couldn't stretch to it for a kitchen in a property we might sell in the next couple of years. Instead DH made a cooker hood based on their designs, we've painted our in-frame cabinets in a deVOL inspired colour and have added some genuine deVOL brass knobs to the drawers. Additionally, we have a Lacanche range which they have in many of their kitchens 😉 It's given us the look without slavishly copying.

Thanks a lot. I'm make it my own with Lacanche. Just wanted this measurement to have an idea :)

We have a deVOL kitchen. On our cabinet fronts, the recessed area is 46cm wide and the frame is 7cm wide (top and bottom). Cabinet door is 2.5cm thick. But I’m pretty sure this was all sized for our particular space so not a standard size necessarily.

Beautiful cabinets! Thank you so much for sharing these details and the picture, this is very helpful :)
