Alcove units are an efficient use of space that can serve as a focal point in a room or space while providing storage.
Bespoke alcove units are designed to provide storage whilst complementing your home's décor. They're a way of maximizing an awkward space and can provide a focal point to any room or space.
We design all of our installations in house so we can provide an array of finishes and styles. We're able to provide and incorporate LED lighting systems into our alcove units. We can design the LED lighting to be triggered by door sensors, so when the doors are open provides a subtle and slow glow. We can also design for items such as glazed doors, period details from Victorian/Georgian properties which are usually coving/cornice, large profile skirting boards or bespoke panel moulding or moulded worktops.
We provide a spray painted finish for our alcove units. Whether you would like a particular colour as we can colour match or would like a particular finish i.e matte, semi matte or a high gloss. We can achieve it.
We also provide non-painted finishes. This would be using real solid hardwood such as oak. We're able to provide a combination of both real solid hardwood and 'wood effect' melamine to achieve oak effect alcove units for an reasonable cost.

How?
When you book a design appointment, we survey your home and measure the room and space your alcove units are going to be designed around. We take into account the age of the property, style of the mouldings such as the picture rails, skirting boards and architraves and take notes to use in our design process.
We produce a 3D drawing of your alcove units for you to view and provide any feedback or changes you would like to make.
