Reeded wood panels in real oak and walnut
Rounded, raised reeds machined into real oak and walnut, for wall panelling, kitchen doors, vanity units and furniture. Made to measure, priced live, and the same price as our fluted panels.
In short
Reeded panels have rounded ridges (reeds) that stand out from the surface; fluted panels have grooves cut into it. Otherwise they are the same product: the same real oak or walnut, the same sizes up to 3050 × 1220 mm, the same lead times and the same prices, from £185 per m² + VAT for 5 mm sheets. Our reeded profiles are Westminster, Soho, Cambridge and Ascot.

What to know before you order.
What reeded panels are
Reeding is a row of rounded, raised ridges side by side, like a bundle of reeds. It is the opposite of fluting, which cuts grooves into the face. Reeds catch the light along their tops and give a softer look than flutes. The two words are often mixed up, so if you have seen a "fluted" panel with rounded ridges, it was reeded.
Same timber, sizes and prices as fluted
Reeded panels are made exactly like our fluted panels: a real oak or walnut face with the profile machined in, as 5 mm sheets, cut pieces, or finished panels and doors about 21.5 mm thick. Sizes go up to 3050 × 1220 mm and every profile costs the same. See all fluted panel prices and sizes.
Reeded wall panels
For a reeded wall, choose 5 mm sheets for your joiner to bond and fix, or finished panels ready to fix, up to 3050 mm high. Westminster’s half-round reeds suit a feature wall behind a bed or sofa; Ascot softens a large wall with its varied rhythm. See our fluted wall panels page for wall prices and planning.
Reeded doors and furniture
Reeded kitchen doors, reeded vanity units, reeded wardrobe doors, reeded sideboards and reeded kitchen islands are made as finished fronts: edged, lacquered or stained, and drilled for hinges if you need it. Price single doors in the door configurator.

Questions,
answered.
Practical answers before you order. Every project is confirmed on a drawing before production.
01What are reeded wood panels?
Panels with a row of rounded, raised ridges machined into a real timber face. Ours are European oak or American walnut, in four reeded profiles: Westminster, Soho, Cambridge and Ascot.
02Is reeded the same as fluted?
Not quite. Reeds stand out from the surface; flutes are grooves cut into it. The words are often mixed up, and we make both in the same timbers, sizes and prices. Our guide to fluted, reeded and ribbed panels shows the difference.
03How much do reeded panels cost?
The same as fluted. In oak, 5 mm sheets are £185 per m² + VAT, so a 2440 × 1220 mm sheet is about £550 + VAT, and finished panels start at £275 per m² + VAT before finish and edges. A lacquered 500 × 715 mm reeded kitchen door is about £150 + VAT. Walnut costs roughly 15–27% more.
04Which reeded profiles do you make?
Four: Westminster, with half-round reeds on a 12 mm pitch; Soho, with soft scalloped reeds; Cambridge, a fine wave on an 8.4 mm pitch; and Ascot, with reeds of varying width. All 12 profiles are in our profile collection.
05Can reeded panels go on walls?
Yes. Use 5 mm sheets bonded to board by your joiner, or finished panels ready to fix, up to 3050 × 1220 mm. See fluted wall panels for wall prices and planning.
06Can you make reeded kitchen and cabinet doors?
Yes. Reeded doors and drawer fronts are made to measure, edged, lacquered or stained, with hinge holes drilled if you want them. Price them in the door configurator.
07What sizes do reeded panels come in?
Sheets are 2440 or 3050 × 1220 mm and 5 mm thick. Cut pieces and finished panels can be any size up to 3050 × 1220 mm; finished panels and doors are about 21.5 mm thick.
08Can reeded oak be stained?
Yes. Finished oak panels and doors can be stained in 18 ADLER colours at the same price as lacquer. The rounded reeds catch the light, so the colour shifts gently across each one. Walnut is supplied in its natural colour.
09Can reeded panels be curved?
Yes. Reeded profiles can be made as curved panels for island ends, curved vanity units and columns; finer profiles such as Cambridge suit tighter curves. See curved fluted panels.
10How long do reeded panels take?
Full sheets take 5–7 working days, cut pieces 1–2 weeks and finished panels and doors 4–6 weeks from drawing approval. UK delivery is £65 + VAT per order, or collect free from Abbey Wood, London SE2.
11Can I see reeded samples?
Yes. Order samples of Westminster, Soho, Cambridge and Ascot, or compare them at our London showroom.
