How the storage opens

From the hallway it reads as one panelled run. Each section opens a different way, chosen for what's behind it.

Ease of access

Deep push to open drawers glide out from beneath the staircase on full extension metal runners, so nothing at the back is out of reach. We build rectangular box drawers, large drawers and angled drawers shaped to the rake of the stairs. A gentle press opens them, so no handles are needed.

Hinged cupboards

Hinged doors suit the taller sections, giving easy access to shelving, hanging rails and larger items. Doors are cut to follow the angle of your staircase and hung on quality hinges, with magnetic push latches as standard.

Combination storage

Most installations mix both: drawers and pull outs at the low end, hinged cupboards at the tall end, arranged around your staircase and what you need to store.

Inside, it's configured to you

Behind the fronts, interiors are configured to what you need to store. The internal layout is chosen with you at the free home survey, so the estimate stays simple.

  2. Plinth, flush and scribed to the floor

    A continuous plinth runs along the foot of the run, scribed on site so it sits flush against your floor.

  3. Infill, inline and flush

    Infill panels close the run at each end, fitted inline and flush with the frontages.

  4. Coverstrip to the stringer

    A coverstrip finishes the top of the run against the stair stringer, following its angle exactly.

  5. Signature 10mm shadow gap

    A deliberate, even 10mm recess around every front. With no handles to interrupt the line, the shadow is the detail.

  6. Push to open on every frontage

    Every door and drawer opens with a push and closes flush, so the run stays uncluttered.

  7. Rails or floating shelf as options

    Hanging rails, hook racks and floating shelves can go inside any drawer or behind any door.

How it's built

Complete cabinets, not doors over a hole.

Each section is a full carcass with its own sides, base, back and top, CNC cut and edged with UV bonded banding in the UK, assembled before installation day and fixed level before the fronts go on. Doors and drawer fronts are UK made vinyl wrapped MDF in matt, gloss and textured finishes. Drag to see the same installation before and after the fronts.

Our signature 10mm shadow gap

Every run is finished with our signature 10mm shadow gap: a deliberate, even recess around each door and drawer front. With push to open fronts there are no handles to interrupt the line, so the shadow itself becomes the detail, crisp and consistent across the whole run in any finish.
