Alcove shelving & storage
Made-to-measure alcove shelves and cupboards that use every millimetre of awkward space.
About this job
Alcoves are wasted space until they're fitted properly. We measure the (never square) opening, build shelves scribed to the walls, and can add cupboards below with soft-close doors in a style that matches your room. Painted MDF, solid timber or oak veneer — we'll show you samples and a sketch before we build. The result looks like it was always there.

- ✔Precise measuring of out-of-square openings
- ✔Design sketch and material samples before build
- ✔Shelves scribed to the walls — no gaps
- ✔Optional cupboards with soft-close hardware
