free-standing designer kitchens
Silvia's snippets and updates of our latest, new and recent kitchens, helpful advice and general stuff
Your kitchen doesn’t have to be built in or stuck to the walls where it can’t be cleaned as effectively and easily, or taken with you if you move. With free-standing units you save on installation costs, you can buy new units as your budget allows, AND you get to be v trendy.
Look at the difference a couple of solid wood, free-standing Milestone Kitchens units made in this space!
See below for BEFORE AND AFTER comparison and some prices.

Tiyon Loubser and Sabrina Miles (the Boss’s Daughter) have been friends since primary school. She was practically a part of the family when Milestone Kitchens came into fruition and has wanted her very own Milestone Kitchen since before the factory even existed! So we were naturally ecstatic when this dream finally became a reality for her, in 2018 ❤️.
The kitchen in Tiyon’s new house was a difficult space to work with but with the help of Silvia and the team, a floor plan was drawn up, and we think it’s lovely!
We are proud to partner with Biddulphs International again this year for the Comrades Marathon give away.

The Nina Island is our biggest island, it has space for a dog bed (3) and is named after the Miles family’s much beloved, German Short-haired Pointer rescue, Nina. If you have a GSP it’s basically compulsory to get this island.
We love our people. We love South Africa, especially our crazy, beautiful place in it - all our carpenters, painters and other team members are local #lekker. We love the hope and the happiness and the viiiibe.

“Shannon and I were at 44 Stanley last weekend and saw your store. I can’t tell you how impressed I am. Your products and vision is awe-inspiring. Seeing all the various combos brought memories of shopping for our cottage kitchen flooding back.” - a favourite client from Pretoria
Our Factory Outlet Shop at 44 Stanley contains great specials, plenty inspiration, and Phumla our effervescent Shop Manageress, AND it’s open every day of the week.
At the beginning, Milestone Kitchens was a three-man team, consisting of Dennis, Sizwe (who are both still with us) and Sipho, functioning in the garage of Silvia Miles’s home. Over seventeen years later, the garage has grown into a 650 square meter factory and the three-man team has expanded to employ and train up to 30 people from our local community. We are able to compete with the best kitchen companies in the country. We have all worked hard to establish a successful business and we are very proud of our product.
The Carpenters and Painters.
Quote: “Cabanga kabili, usike kanye“ - think twice cut once.
We believe that local is lekker, and better. So, we only employ and train people from our local communities. Our carpenters and painters take great pride in making quality kitchens for the families that we work with.
The vast majority of our carpenters and painters have been with Milestone Factory for 15+ years (I think you could say they’re happy here). Most started of our staff began at MK unskilled and have learnt their skills on the job over the years and are now invaluable in an economy where skilled labour is scarce.
#MilestoneTeam
You've already been introduced to Lulu De Beer, Bedette Olivier and Phumla Majola, but in case you've forgotten...
Lulu joined MK in December 2012. She is an internationally certified, City and Guild accredited front office/hotel manageress. She specialised in culinary arts during her course and graduated from Legends Hospitality School of Fine Cuisine with a distinction (we appreciate good food at MK). So you know she has a good understanding of how things are supposed to work in the kitchen. Lulu has 2 sons, and a menagerie of dogs, cats, geese (I'm probably missing a few). Lulu is a motivator, psychologist, lawyer, doctor, chef, dog whisperer, photographer, bodyguard and a highly valued human being.
Official Titles: Personal Assistant to Silvia Miles and Chief Designer.
Unofficial Title: Right hand woman.
Quote: “ Of all the things you can choose to be today, choose to be kind."
Bedette Olivier is the newest addition to the MK family, she came from an administration position at an airline company, to MK where she takes care of all of the general admin, and is an important link between the office and the carpenters on the factory floor. She is an adept logistical co-ordinator and not someone you want to get into an argument with! She is resilient, hard working and ALWAYS goes the extra mile.
Official Title: Factory Administrator
Quote: "Rather an hour early than 1 minute late”.
She is reliable, honest and full of fun, she always has a smile on her face. Phumla has a Bachelor of Arts Degree in psychology. She runs the Milestone Kitchens FOS (Factory Outlet Shop) at 44 Stanley. She does everything: from decorating, to organising deliveries, to cleaning, to helping prospective clients with important dream-kitchen-making decisions.
Official title: Factory Outlet Shop Manageress
Quote: "Be true to yourself”
Official Title: Factory Manager
Quote: “Quality is pride in workmanship”
Dennis Mkhize has been the Milestone Factory Manager for 20 years, since the working-out-of-Silvia’s-garage days. He has a vast knowledge of carpentry. After finishing matric he won an award to be trained as a carpenter at PMB Gateway Prison project - we snapped him up soon afterwards and he has been with us ever since. He is the only man in our management team (the most impressive part of his resume?). He is calm and methodical and loyal and we couldn’t do without him.
#MilestoneTeam
Sabrina Miles.
Official Title: Media Manager
Unofficial Title: The Boss’s daughter.
Quote: "Gorify the hour".
Sabrina is very energetic; her positive and adventurous spirit seeps into everything she does. She is currently working for MK part time (PART time - Mom, did you see this?). She manages the social media and marketing related tasks, from somewhere - nobody is ever really sure where. Sabrina has a Bachelor of Engineering in Industrial Engineering and understands all things entrepreneurial. Sometimes she consults for the business in an industrial engineering capacity. Sabrina is passionate about the company and will be joining the team in a more permanent role in the next few years.

Tess Miles.
Official Title: Videographer
Unofficial Title: The Boss’ taller daughter.
Quote: "Computers are useless. They can only give you answers."
Tess is a passionate, talented, very creative, proudly South African, recently graduated Video Journalist from Rhodes University. And no, we are not biased. Her job is to capture the essence of MK in videos and to help our clients better visualise our concept. This is a recent venture for us, but we have (we hope), some exciting things lined up so watch this space!
#MilestoneTeam
This week on Social Media we will be introducing you to some of the core members of the Milestone Team. First up is the big boss: Silvia Miles.
Official titles: CEO, Founder.
Unofficial Title: Creative Genius.
Quote: “In the dark you will never find the light switch if you don’t move.”
Silvia completed a Bachelors of Arts degree in painting and geography cum laude, with honours in painting, and also her PGCE. We are still not sure what this has to do with freestanding kitchen units, but we do know she is clever. After a couple years of teaching her way around the world, she went on to start her own business, MK. Silvia has a gift for making spaces beautiful, she is also a mother and a passionate, excellent cook (we know we’ve tasted her stress-cooking). This combination has rather effectively translated into an ability to design and manufacture furniture to create practical and beautiful kitchens and spaces, and evolved Milestone Kitchens into what it is today.
#MilestoneTeam
We love the way Debbie Coulson has combined Swedish Style units with blonde solid Ash tops in a space with lots of natural light to create this - her second milestone kitchen. And she said she can’t wait for her third! Think she likes us?
Sometimes Milestone Kitchens has clients from all over the globe, it really blows our hair back. We are proud to have hand-crafted this kitchen for an international client from Texas, USA.
Di Taylor, Merrivale, KZN: " Yes please! I love that such an awesome company is around the corner from us on the good old Wartburg rd!! I was a Greytown girl..."
We get warm fuzzy feelings in our tummys when clients send us photos of their kitchens ❤️
We are very excited to work with our Home Magazine/Tuis TydskrifHero Item competition winner Annelie!
You know you’re trendy when you’re featured in the Home Magazine/Tuis Tydskrif!
You know how they say, never trust a skinny chef? You should also never trust solid wood kitchen carpenters who don’t cook in their own kitchens. This is the Milestone Factory staff kitchen, made by the Milestone Kitchen carpenters, what do you think? Let us know on facebook or instagram with the buttons in the top right corner!
The Milestone Kitchens Factory Outlet Shop is OPEN for 2019, as of 11 minutes ago. It’s been almost a year since we first served you guys delicious chocolates from Chocoloza and scrumptious cheesecake and brownies from Salvation Cafe (ja that was a good time and no sorry we’re not doing it again right now), but, we’ve learnt SO much since that day and we’re excited to bring you even bigger and better things in the coming year!
We had a wonderful holiday under the African sun, and we hope you did too, (but we've had enough of our relatives now), and we're looking forward to a new year at Milestone Kitchens!
The Milestone Kitchens FOS at 44 Stanley is opening on Monday - we’d love to see you. This is a great opportunity to get those early bird orders in, as production is nearly full for Feb 2019.
It's not too late to get yourself (or your family) a last minute christmas treat from 44 Stanley Avenue!
Today is closing day! The Milestone Team wishes you a happy and safe festive season 🌲 🌲 🌲
P.S. This also means last day to get in orders for your free-standing, award-winning, designer, stress-free (!) kitchen units, for delivery in February!
But don’t worry, the Milestone Kitchens FOS and other worthwhile shops at 44 Stanley are still open if you’d like to do some Christmas shopping.
This is sparkly, beautiful Phum. She is full of fun and always has a smile on her face (and no sorry guys, this is not a dating app). Phumla runs the Milestone Kitchens FOS (Factory Outlet Shop) at 44 Stanley. She does everything: from decorating, to organising deliveries, to cleaning, to helping prospective clients with important dream-kitchen-making decisions. And she is so lovely to be around - it’s worth visiting our FOS just to to have a conversation with her!
Reliable, hard-working and eternally honest - we are so grateful we have you on our team Phum!
This is a picture of a hand-made, custom-made African Allure corner unit in white, taken on the factory floor just before it was wrapped up and sent off to a valued client. Everything we make is customizable and can be sized to fit perfectly into your kitchen and lifestyle!

We love orders like this! It’s awesome getting to make someone’s vision a reality.
This is a coffee dresser designed by a Mrs Venter, she drew this simple diagram for us and the Milestone carpenters worked their magic.
What fabulous ideas are floating around in your head? Is there anything you want but can’t find? Draw us a picture and we can make it happen.

Surprisingly, the best part about taking this photo was not sitting on the Milestone Kitchens trestle table but getting to sit next to Brian the mini-GSP 😍❤️
Our Kitchen In A Cupboard is perfect for guest houses, guest rooms, students housing, granny flats, hotels or any small space needing a kitchen. The KIAC has a sink, stove, microwave and mini fridge AND it all fits into this compact, stylish, cupboard. We can make this product in all shape and sizes and order your appliances, it’s fully customizable. Wheels, legs or skirting, stone tops, ash tops, pine tops - whatever fits your budget, we can do it for you! Have you ever seen an easier kitchen set up?
If you’ve been watching our stories lately you’ll know we have been experimenting with different shapes and colours. This grocery cupboard/wardrobe has been finished with pink chalk paint and a rose wallpaper. You can find it and others at the Factory Outlet Shop in Johannesburg.
Milestone Kitchens Factory Outlet shop opened in February 2018. Everything in this photo has been sold since it was taken on opening day - visit us at 44 Stanley Avenue, MilPark, Johannesburg and have a look at what else we have to offer before that sells out too!
Whether it’s to gain some inspiration and get those creative juices flowing, chat about ‘what’s new’ to our awesome sales reps, or indulge in a delicious coffee from Salvation Cafe, we’d love to see you!
Milestone Kitchens units are very versatile - in fact, contrary to popular belief we make furniture that can be used all over the house. This single vanity can be seen from the seat of a very nice toilet in a very nice bathroom in a very nice flat in KZN, South Africa. The second picture depicts the kitchen in said very nice flat, just in case you got so excited about this very nice vanity that you forgot we also make very nice kitchen units.
We had a wonderful and inspiring lunch with Home Magazine and SARIE Tydskrif yesterday The Oyster Box #printisnotdead.
These diverse magazines are full of ideas, inspiration and sometimes a Milestone Kitchens Unit or 3. If you haven’t had the privilege of owning one yet - better late than never!
“Kitchen islands serve a number of purposes. In addition to being a visual anchor in the space, they also help increase the room’s functionality and efficiency.”
Milestone Kitchens offer a number of island options and can customize them to meet your needs!
Want a wine rack? We’ll make you a wine rack! Want it on casters? We’ll put it on casters. Want a purple and yellow island with green legs? We’ll make you a purple and yellow island with green legs.
Overlooking Durban beachfront is this classic yet contemporary Milestone Kitchen, we love it! And so does the SA Garden and Home.
This is Bedette, AKA Bee 🐝 aka Meep (don’t ask me why). We would like to officially welcome her to the Milestone Kitchens team where she is attempting to fill the space left by Superwoman On Maternity Leave, Lulu de Beer. These shoes were acquired after 7 years of growing and learning while MK has grown from a small company into what it is today, and they are some big shoes to have to step into! Despite this, Bee is a resilient, hard worker and is learning quickly, she always goes the extra mile! I don’t think she knows my real name, or if she does she has forgotten it because she always, without fail, calls me Boss (I am not complaining as this is rather empowering and reminds me that I am an independent woman). When Lulu gets back Bee will stay on the team to help keep up with the growing administration demands of Milestone Kitchens.
Bee we are excited to have you with us and we look forward to a happy and successful future with you on the team!
Congratulations to Lulu and her family on the birth of their 4.2kg bundle of joy. Welcome to the world Dakota Potgieter!
This beautiful kitchen now belongs to Johanette Fellows from Pretoria. Johanette made her own concrete tops for her kitchen and they are stunning! In fact, she has started her own concrete top business. Concrete tops go so well with the Milestone Ranges, we are very impressed with how clever she has been combining them with her Swedish Style kitchen.
Should you wish to get a concrete top, you are welcome to contact Johanette on (082) 319 2391 for more information about them. You can also have a look at her website: http://www.imbecraft.com/
There are a number of different options for you and your kitchen regarding tops, hardwood, softwood, steel, Caesar stone, granite. Have a look at our new MK tops page.
"Thanks for meeting me. It was one of my dreams to meet you and now it seems that I will be getting one of your super kitchens."
Sandra Spangler made an appointment to see me at our Joburg Showroom last week. We sat and chatted and planned the Milestone kitchen she has been wanting for years, together.
I would love to meet with you and help you plan your dream kitchen! All you need to do is make an appointment.
It is always exciting to find ourselves in the Media! I came across our lovely Coffee Dresser in the March issue of the House and Leisure.
I don’t know if the world knows, but there’s a special woman who works behind the scenes at Milestone Kitchens. Her name is Lulu aka my Right Hand aka Superwoman aka Expecting Mom.
Lulu will:
Go over a 1000 emails per day, take and make calls, WhatsApp and SMS at speed, chase suppliers, keep up with the Live Chat, expertly fill in multiple forms, intuitively read between the lines, and maintain a sense of humour, all at the same time! Lulu is able to prepare any sort of letter, be it; employment contracts, dismissals and referrals, or a cake in the shape of an A.
When she is not in communication zone, she manages my finances, finds and interviews prospective employees, takes pictures, makes videos and slide shows, prints, faxes, writes up interviews, cancels accounts, opens accounts, prepares wages, and still finds the time to go to the toilet.
Not only does Lulu always know what the weather is doing - she knows exactly how I feel most of the time (I don’t even know how I feel half of the time?). In the (often occurring) necessity, she can: cure migraines, drive a truck, get to town and back in under an hour, remember the passwords for 25 different accounts, type in legal jargon, negotiate with labour units and the CCMA, arrange bank loans, fix anything, and make the best hot toddies. If needed, she will make supper, lunch, and, very importantly, coffee. She can, in fact, cater for a function for 30 people at a few hours notice. Probably while texting clients. By the way, no, she is not looking for a new job.
She is a motivator, psychologist, lawyer, doctor, chef, photographer, body guard, dog whisperer and a highly valued human being. I think the only thing she can’t do is work and have a baby at the same time! We are going to miss you over the next few months here at Milestone Kitchens Lulu, your beautiful boy is going to grow up in the most capable of hands and I can’t wait to meet him! ❤.

Make sure you enter our Milestone Kitchen competition in the August edition of HOME/TUIS. One lucky person gets to win R50 000 toward the cost of a new kitchen.
The pictures below give you an idea of what can be achieved with free-standing units. They are made from a combination of solid wood and supawood and not stuck to the walls so you are at liberty to move them, paint them, change only one top or all the tops, use them somewhere else or even remodel them. The choice is endless. You will never regret your decision to go this route.
We have a 7 Piece Starter Set Special in French Flair painted in Fresh Linen, available at our Factory Outlet Shop. The pieces are set on plinths, legs and castors, and have antique oval knob handles and blonde pine tops. Here are 2 of the pieces, rush to our factory outlet shop to view more of them.
Our famous and great value for money 7PSSS usually goes for R60 000 (plus VAT) but this one is going for the ridiculous price of R55 000 and is available immediately from our Factory Outlet Shop at 44 Stanley. GO quickly.
Contact us for more info.
Some happy news in the August issue of Living Magazine for those of you who would like to give their kitchen a face lift on a minimal budget. We can make you just new doors. Send us your door measurements and we will send you a quote.

A beautiful open-plan kitchen with plenty of surface space, we love the chic colour contrasts.
In the latest issue of Elle Decoration South Africa, our Factory Outlet Shop is part of their stunning 44 Stanley feature!
"With its stylish interior, this alluring space offers customers the opportunity to experience the brand's solid-wood, modular kitchen units in a lifestyle setting.

If you're looking to create the ideal family kitchen, SA Home Owner's Kitchen Confidential feature in this month's issue has all the answers you need!
Milestone Kitchens is featured in the article and our resident kitchen pro, Silvia Miles, was interviewed...
"Free-standing kitchen units, rather than fixed wall-to-floor units are ideal for a family-friendly home, making cleaning that much easier. A broom and vacuum cleaner fits under the units with ease, and if you've chosen units on castors, then you can simply move the units aside to clean the floor," says Silvia.
Not many clients know that we do doors only. Here is an example of a client with a difficult kitchen space. It would have been almost impossible to put free-standing units in Esme Klopper’s kitchen as it has a weird, hexagonal layout, but she desperately wanted a Milestone Kitchen. So we made her doors. This is the result.
This is Esme's feedback:
👍💗💗💗Thank you so much, it's delivered! Beautiful. 👍💗💗💗 I am so pleased, it's beautiful!👍😄😄😄😄💗💗💗💗
Our Housekeeping Cupboard, listed as one of SA Country Life magazine's country kitchen must-haves!
Our units are fully customisable, and can be fitted with a variety of tops for the kitchen.
From stainless steel preparation and sink units to hard-wood kitchen islands, stone countertops and more, there is so much choice and flexibility.
Units with wood or stainless steel tops can be ordered directly from Milestone Kitchens, or you can order your units ‘topless’ to be fitted with the tops of your choice on site.
Recently, one of our clients created bespoke concrete tops for their kitchen. Take a peek...
A stunning kitchen plan that we recently completed! All the units were ordered without tops and fitted with Caesarstone counter tops on site.

"I could not believe my eyes when I saw that you opened an outlet shop in Gauteng...I am so excited to visit there with my hubby, as I am in need of a brand new kitchen after 20 years of marriage. I am the type of person who loves to touch and see something before I can actually visualise it in my home...now I get that opportunity and hopefully my starter kitchen unit set will become a reality. Thanks Silvia! See you soon."
Thank you for this lovely message, Connely! We look forward to seeing you at our Factory Outlet Shop very soon.
Have you picked up the latest SA Garden and Home magazine? We're excited to let you know that our 44 Stanley Factory Outlet Shop is featured in the Home Front section and our Njabulo Kennel is on the Shopping page. The issue is on shelves now!
Thank you Tracy Kelly of Nom de Plume Studio for assisting us to bring our vision for the space to life.
We recently assisted Cheryl, from Gauteng, to bring her dream kitchen to life. Silvia loves how warm and inviting this kitchen is and how Cheryl cleverly used other pieces of furniture alongside her Milestone Kitchen units.
Thank you for this lovely feedback, Cheryl...
"Choosing a Milestone Kitchen was one of the best decisions have I ever made. My little kitchen was looking drab and lacklustre and I had wanted to refresh it without losing the cottage feel the entire house has. I chose pieces that could fit in neatly with some existing heirlooms and a more modern shelf. The island is amazing! I use it to display my beloved roses and baked goodies and there is so much space for storage. The ordering process was a dream. Lulu is ever helpful and when the kitchen units arrived my dream fell into place! We are building a new home and although I have to leave my little kitchen behind, I am ordering a new Milestone Kitchen that Lulu has helped me plan. So at least I will have a very similar kitchen in my new home. A Milestone Kitchen should be on everyone's bucket list. Simply stunning!"
We love this write-up on the new shops at 44 Stanley in Hello Joburg Magazine!
Here's what Hello Joburg had to say about Milestone Kitchens:
"These beautifully crafted, modular and free standing kitchen cupboards and units are the bomb for maximising space in small apartments. All your stuff in one place – got it. Moving to a bigger place? Easy – just add on with matching items to grow your home."

Jenna Schoeman was the the winner of the Home Magazine competition that we ran at the end of last year. We are very excited to be creating her dream kitchen for her - transforming a dilapidated space into something that reflects Jenna's style and needs for her kitchen, and does justice to the beauty of her blue stone farmhouse in KwaZulu-Natal.
Here is a peek of the exterior of her house and the kitchen plan that we have created for her. We are excited to start bringing this plan to life!
It's so lovely when someone who already has a Milestone Kitchen comes back for more!
