Alcove Shelving & Cabinetry

Alcoves either side of a chimney breast are one of the most useful spaces in an Irish home, and one of the hardest to fit. The walls are almost never square, so shelves and cabinets bought off the shelf leave gaps. Here everything was measured and built for the alcoves, with cabinets below for storage and floating shelves above.

The units were first finished in natural oak and later painted in white for a brighter, more modern look. Shelves are fixed into the walls so they carry books and ornaments without sagging.

Alcove units like these usually take a few days from fitting to painting, depending on the size and finish. We build alcove shelving and cabinets across Dublin city and county, Wicklow, Kildare and Meath. Final pricing is subject to site inspection.
