U-Shape Melamine Bulkhead

Product Description:

Conceal ceiling services on three sides with this finished U-shape bulkhead. Ready for DIY installation without painting, this bulkhead fills the gap between overhead cabinets and ceiling with a professional factory finish.

This premium Custom Flatpack component features a three-sided U-shape design wrapping front and both ends of your overhead cabinet run. This comprehensive coverage is essential when cabinet ends are visible, delivering a complete built-in appearance from every viewing angle. Proudly manufactured in our Melbourne factory using high-quality Australian-made materials.

Beyond aesthetics, bulkheads serve important practical functions: concealing electrical wiring, hiding rangehood ducting, and providing a channel for integrated LED lighting. The enclosed space transforms wasted gap into purposeful infrastructure concealment.
