The Difference Between Regency and Chiltern Radiator Cabinets

Two of the collections in our range of traditional cabinets, Chiltern and Regency, are visually very similar with grille designs, however there are two key differences – the skirting board detail and broadness of the stiles.

Chiltern Cabinets

With the Chiltern design, the skirting board runs across the front and both sides of the cabinet (please see the photo below).

  • Skirting details returns around the side of the cabinet

Regency Cabinets

On the Regency design, the skirting board only runs across the front of the cabinet (please see the photo below) – its sides are plain, which can make it a preferred option if you’re concerned about the cabinet skirting style clashing with the skirting on your walls.

The Regency design also has extra upright stiles, which significantly increases the thickness of the front panel and results in a much heavier, thicker-set cabinet that’s more suitable for larger radiators over 150cm wide.

  • Skirting detail is only at the front of the cabinet.
  • Broader stiles (noted with arrows).

Really pleased with our radiator cabinet which has greatly improved our hallway.
The cabinet has a high-quality finish and is well constructed. It looks and feels substantial, but with the benefit of being extremely easily fitted.
The cabinet was well protected for delivery, which provided an immediate reassurance this was a quality product.
We’re so please we’ve decided to order another one."

"I couldn’t be happier with my mirrored radiator cabinet. The workmanship is fantastic, and it makes my room look bigger. It’s definitely worth the money. The company was great to deal with, and I will definitely be purchasing another one shortly. The cabinet comes carefully packaged to avoid damage in transit. Absolutely first class. Furthermore, the delivery guy called me up and asked me when a convenient time would be for him to deliver the cabinet. As I work all day I asked for as late as possible and he turned up as agreed, on time. Very helpful. Extremely happy all round."

"Excellent people to deal with both before and after purchasing. The quality of the cabinets is superb, this is our second. Very easy to install and they look fantastic. The two lads who delivered it, late Sunday in the pouring rain could not have been more friendly or helpful."

I double-checked sizing every time before ordering but each cover is always made to correct size. They are solid, high quality and a premium product."

Suzanne Saward

"We've just had 3 radiator covers from John having trawled the internet for months before plucking up the courage to order.

Customer service was professional and speedy, with any questions answered within hours rather than days.

We had 1 really tricky cover but having some advice from John it has turned out beautifully.

Quality of the covers is great, as is the simple installation, and I have to give a shout out to the driver. Really friendly and helpful.

We would definitely recommend John and would like to thank him for helping us finish our home."
