At Alden Cabinet Designs, craftsmanship is at the heart of everything we do.

Over the decades, we’ve grown and evolved, but our dedication to traditional techniques, personalised service, and exceptional workmanship has remained constant.

A Legacy of Craftsmanship

With roots stretching back from 1973 , our business was founded on the principles of honesty, integrity, and excellence in woodworking. Today, we continue to uphold those values, combining time-honoured methods with modern design sensibilities to produce truly bespoke furniture and joinery for homes and commercial spaces across the South East and beyond.

Made for You – and Built to Last

Every piece we make is designed and crafted to suit your individual requirements. Whether you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind kitchen, fitted wardrobes, architectural joinery, or a statement furniture piece, we’ll work closely with you from concept to completion. We take pride in our ability to interpret your vision and turn it into something both beautiful and practical – furniture that’s made to be lived in and cherished for years to come.

Our Workshop

All of our work is carried out in-house at our Lancing workshop. Here, tradition meets innovation – equipped with both classic tools and precision machinery, we’re able to achieve the finest results with full control over quality and finish. We welcome clients to visit and see the craftsmanship firsthand, where the smell of fresh wood and the sound of chisels at work tell the story of our passion and dedication.
