Featured in The Design Files
Before starting Fliplab, our founder Sacha Leagh-Murray spent years at Laminex Australia. There, she saw how much people cared about the colour, material and detail of their joinery, and how hard it could be to achieve the result they imagined within their budget. Custom joinery is often out of reach, while standard flatpack doors can feel limiting. Fliplab was created to fill that gap.

The process
1: Plan your layout
Using the online or in-store services from Bunnings or IKEA, plan the flatpack configuration and base cabinetry that works best for your space.
2: Choose your design
Select the colours, finishes, and textures that reflect your style - swap out the doors, drawers and panels in your flatpack plan with our custom made fronts.
3: Place your order
Once you've locked in your design, we'll take care of the details. Your custom doors are made to fit perfectly and delivered ready for the final step.
4: Time to flip
This is where it all comes together. Your new fronts are delivered to your site pre-drilled and ready to install.
Our products are manufactured and supplied by Fliplab Australia and are designed to be compatible with some cabinetry systems sold by IKEA and Bunnings. Fliplab is an independent business and is not affiliated with, sponsored, approved or endorsed by IKEA or Bunnings.

FAQs
How best to plan my space?
The best place to start is to utilise the planning tools or services from IKEA or Bunnings. You can work out the right configuration for your space and will generate an item list that will help you work out what you need from Fliplab when you place your order.
What do I buy from IKEA or Bunnings?
Just the base cabinets (frames) along with hinges and any other internal hardware or accessories. Leave the doors, drawers and panels from your plan off your IKEA or Bunnings order (yes you can just order their base cabinets).
Where are the Fliplab fronts made?
We make to order right here in Australia using the highest quality Australian made materials from brands such as Laminex and Polytec. We use sustainably sourced, Australian grown timber products in our doors, drawers and panels to ensure your Fliplab doors are built to last.
How long does it take to make Fliplab fronts?
Allow 4 – 6 weeks for your Fliplab order to be made.
Where do you deliver to?
We can deliver across Australia. Click here for delivery information.
Do you provide samples?
Yes you can order samples here. We provide up to 8 samples free of charge!
Can you help me with design selection?

I am not confident ordering online, can you build me a quote?
Yes we can build you a quote. Please visit or contact us.
Do you offer installation?
No we keep our prices low by offering supply only. You can find installers by googling “flatpack installation” or use Hipages or Airtasker. Contact us for a list of installers.
Do the Fliplab items come pre-drilled?
Fliplab products come pre-drilled to perfectly fit your chosen cabinetry system from IKEA or Bunnings, using the same hinge and drilling patterns as they do.
Our range that is compatible with IKEA Metod is pre-drilled to fit the IKEA Utrusta hinges and IKEA Maximera drawer fittings sold by IKEA. Our range that is compatible with IKEA Pax wardrobe frames is pre-drilled to fit the IKEA Pax hinges (IKEA Komplement), and our IKEA Besta range is pre-drilled to fit the Besta hinge. Our range that is compatible with Bunnings kitchen is pre-drilled to fit the door hinges sold at Bunnings (DTC).
Kickboards, panels (including integrated appliance panels), handles, and drawers for Bunnings drawer fixtures are not pre-drilled (as per the standard IKEA and Bunnings ranges), as these need to be aligned and fitted onsite during installation.
Can you make custom sizes?
Yes we can make sizes to reface existing cabinets or to suit other cabinetry systems. Click here to enquire about custom orders.
What about benchtops?
Fliplab doesn’t offer benchtops as most of our customers prefer to choose stone or porcelain for benchtops. These need to be sourced from a licensed Stonemason. Bunnings and IKEA also offer a range of affordable benchtop options.
Please contact us for a list of benchtop suppliers in your area.
What is your Returns and Warranty policy?
Because every item is made to order to suit your project there is no refund or exchange for change of mind or other reasons. We will of course replace any faulty or damaged goods that are the fault of Fliplab or our delivery partners. We also offer a 7 year warranty click here for details.
