How It Works
The Concept
Combine affordable cabinetry from IKEA or BUNNINGS and use our Doors, Sides & Tops instead, to create a custom look, for less!
What makes the combination of Customea and IKEA a great choice?
Well for one, when you buy an IKEA (or BUNNINGS) kitchen/ wardrobe or tv unit, you have the option to not purchase their doors - which is not something you can find elsewhere in the cabinetry industry.
Since the doors and drawer faces of your cabinets play a crucial role in defining the room, why not upgrade them beyond what IKEA or BUNNINGS offers?
Our products integrate seamlessly with IKEA & BUNNINGS hardware and are to be installed in exactly the same way you would with their items.
With our Custom Size options you can now customise any cabinet brand, with a huge variety of profiles & finishes to choose from!
Made to Fit:

METOD (Kitchen)
BESTA (TV Unit/ Storage)

Any Brand, Any Cabinet
The Process
1. Measure
First up, measure the space you're wanting to renovate. You will need this for any Design & Planning consultations.
If you need help, proceed to step 2 to contact one of our partners.
2. Design & Plan
A great kitchen starts with a smart layout—get that right & your IKEA setup can look like it walked out of a high-end showroom.
That’s where our Design Partners come in. Working with someone like Burra Design means you’ll skip the guesswork and end up with a kitchen that feels truly custom!
3. Order
Browse your favourite Customea Profiles & Finishes and select your items directly from the Online Shop & simply Add to Cart from your IKEA list.
Or, if you prefer, use our “Build My Cart” service and we’ll take care of it for you (for a $200 fee, which is redeemable upon purchase).
4. Install
Your Customea pieces will land on your doorstep in 4–6 weeks. Exciting times!
To make sure everything fits and looks just right, we recommend bringing in a professional installer who knows their way around a flatpack makeover.
You don't have to DIY!
