Why Buy Direct With Us?

23 June 2025 | Guides,

While some of French Furniture Fittings’ range of high-quality cabinet knobs and handles can be sourced through other retailers, we explain the benefits of buying direct…

The Benefits of Buying Direct

With some of our products available at other retailers, you may be tempted to buy there to get what you’re looking for. We explain why it’s usually better to shop directly with us to get the final touches you’re looking for, both for better prices and outstanding aftercare.

The Independent Difference

We are a family-owned and family-run UK business in beautiful Wiltshire, who do things on a human scale. We hand-pick our range of fittings with time and care, with our stock carefully reflecting our ethos of high quality and great design at an affordable price.

We know our catalogue well and don’t outsource to suppliers or other providers. We are as enthusiastic about kitchen design as you are, whether you’re working on your own home or are in the trade. Simply put, buying from us is an entirely different experience.

 

First-Class Advice

Not sure which style, size, or finish you need? No problem! We’re here to guide you through it – every step of the way. If you have any queries or need any support you can always call us and speak to one of our knowledgeable team directly, or send us an email which will be answered promptly. No outside or overseas call centres, and certainly no “digital assistant” chatbots to get in the way!

If in doubt, our customer reviews tell their own story, with our long history of going the extra mile. Ultimately, we’re enthusiasts first and business-people second, who are always on hand to help.

Only Buy What You Need

Sometimes less is more. We have always steered clear of stocking every product out there.  In short, if it isn’t of good quality and beautiful or interesting, we won’t stock it.

Adhering to this philosophy, our ordering process is simple and customisable depending on your needs. If you’re only after a sample or a couple of handles for a restoration, you can buy individually rather than in multipacks to fit out a whole kitchen. By the same token, all smaller orders can be scaled up to what you need. There are no costly subscriptions, minimum orders or anything of that nature, though we do offer next-day delivery on all orders before 1pm Mon-Fri, with free next-day shipping on orders over £80.

Big Enough to Cope, Small Enough to Care

We have the unique benefits of being a small, family business, while working at a scale that means we can provide incredible service to our customers. Our range of products may be carefully chosen, but can be provided to your build or restoration project rapidly. You can always get us on the phone, but we have capabilities that only a specialist business can provide. We strike a perfect balance between approachable and effective, and we are delighted to pass on these benefits.

If you’re looking for the perfect finishing touches to your next design project, we hope you’ll consider coming directly to French Furniture Fittings, where we can offer you the best prices and the highest level of service.
