Choose from several premium finish options to complement your décor, including classic black melamine; natural and organic warm oak veneer; brightly clean crisp white; or versatile raw paintable MDF that you can colour-match to your existing palette.

Frequntly Asked Questions

How much weight can the alcove shelves hold?

The maximum weight capacity depends on the size of your shelf, wall material, brackets, and fixings used. We recommend fixing larger shelves to masonry with our heavy duty adjustable brackets, using at least 50mm screws and anchors. This provides the strongest mounting. Smaller shelves or mounting to softer wall materials will reduce the weight capacity considerably.

What are the alcove shelves made of?

Our shelves start with a durable MDF core which we expertly machine and hand finish to your custom dimensions. The surfaces are covered in a scratch-resistant melamine laminate finish available in oak, white, black, and a paintable raw MDF version.

Are mounting brackets included?

Yes, standard screw brackets are available for all board thicknesses, while our heavy-duty adjustable brackets are available for 38mm and 50mm boards. Screws and wall anchors are not included - make sure to use appropriate fixings for your wall type.

Should I mount to the wall studs if installing on plasterboard?

Yes, try to align at least one bracket per shelf to a wall stud. This greatly improves stability. If stud alignment isn't possible, use specialised plasterboard fixings.

How are the alcove shelves installed?

First attach the adjustable brackets securely onto the wall, properly spaced to match the shelf width. Make sure the brackets are level, then set the shelf onto the bracket pegs.

We have made a guide on how to install floating shelves which features step-by-step instructions as well as all the tools you will need for installation.

I ordered 3 floating shelves. Despite there being an adjustment mechanism in the bracket to alter the angle of the shelf, there were no fitting instructions were sent with the shelves. One of the shelves had 3 cut marks on the top surface, which was disappointing since they cost £130.00 each. Apart from that they were great.

Shelves was chipped on the edges and had glue mess on them, ordered 3 the same colour but one of them didn’t match the others, was a different texture and shade for no apparent reason. £360 what a mug I am

so pleased with how our hallway is coming along 🥰 here is a little run down of what we’ve done 🎨 we painted the walls, skirting & door frames in slipper satin (paint matched at b&q) - I think I also want to do the ceilings as they need a refresh anyway 🪚 we panelled the wall longest wall which I loved doing, the most difficult part was going around the plug sockets - I ordered from cutmy.uk which was made to measure & absolutely brilliant 🎨 the panelling is painted in elephant’s breath (also paint matched at b&q) 🪞& then we added the mirrors 💡changed the light fitting 🖤 painted the little cabinet in pitch black - a bit risky but so pleased with how it came out 🪑added a bench and cushions 🌿 we bought a new (big) plant baby, bird of paradise & a large pot for the corner 🧥and some gorgey coat hooks for under the stairs made by ardovie_wood who we found on etsyuk We’re going to look for some baskets to go under the bench for shoes, and I want to get a new lamp too! And the current plan is the change the carpet to hard flooring next year. ➡️ swipe to the end to see the before photo • #Hallway #HallwayDecor #HallwayInspo #HouseUpdates #HomeDecor #HomeInterior #Panelling #GivingItAGo

We received this beautiful photo from Robert on Trust Pilot of his charcoal slat panelling that he has used for his bar island. We love that we are seeing more and more of our panelling being used on furniture!

LIFE LATELY 🌲✨ I realised I legit NEVER post stills anymore, and shiney reels don't always show reality. So next year I vouch to make a bigger effort to post more pictures that capture the good bad & ugly! 1. The finished stairs garland after 599 attempts at tying a bow we got there - if you saw my stories you'll know this is an achievement 🤣 2. A moment of still/ gratitude with my babies 3. 4 month milestone!! Feels like 4 minutes and 4 years all in one. 4. A small win to be celebrated - I was in overwhelm city and I forced myself out the house. Obvs felt a million times better for it so need to remember for next time! 5. My breakfast bar of dreams 🥰 so happy with how's it's turned out - just need to make my mind up on paint. 6. Nap trapped and savouring the moment. She won't be this little again and as tough as it is I would swap anything to keep these cuddles longer 🥹 Bit different from me today!! Happy Friday Homeys 🥰 CHS x
