Project Details

Client: Eleanor Baliol-Key Location: Lincoln, Lincolnshire Surface Area: Custom alcove installation within chimney breast recess

Bespoke alcove cabinet with three floating shelves in Lincoln, manufactured in moisture resistant MDF with oak veneered internals.

Overview

Bespoke Alcove Unit & Floating Shelves in Lincoln

Radial Joinery designed and installed this bespoke alcove unit in Lincoln to create practical storage while enhancing the character of the room.

The Client Brief

The client wanted a fitted alcove cabinet with three floating shelves above the chimney breast. The design needed to feel balanced and sit naturally within the existing recess.

In addition, we discussed repairs to the front bay window. We quoted these works separately on a day rate basis plus materials.

Construction & Materials

We built the alcove unit using moisture resistant MDF to improve durability. Internally, we used oak veneered MDF to introduce warmth and contrast.

The cabinet includes soft close hinges and simple chrome pull knobs. These details keep the design clean and understated.

Above the cabinet, we installed three bespoke floating shelves. We aligned each shelf carefully to suit the proportions of the alcove and surrounding walls.

Finish

We supplied the unit unfinished and ready for decoration. As a result, the customer could colour match the cabinetry precisely to the final room scheme.

The Result

The completed alcove unit provides enclosed storage at lower level. Meanwhile, the floating shelves add vertical interest and display space above.

If you are considering a bespoke alcove unit in Lincoln or custom floating shelves tailored to your home, contact Radial Joinery on 01522 801760 or visit radialjoinery.co.uk to arrange a consultation.

The team at Radial recently completed some skilled remedial work on our conservatory. Many of the window units were rotting around the sills so the frames needed splicing with new timber. We live in an old stone house without any straight lines so the work was particularly challenging, yet we were very happy with the outcome. Highly recommend.

Fast, professional service. We used Radial to replace two very old windows. The joiner who worked with us (Ian) was very friendly and polite, tidy in our home, and did the job to a high standard, even though we have an old house that presented a few challenges on the way. Happy to recommend Radial.

The job we needed doing was to replace the rotted ‘decking’ plank tops to the raised beds in our garden. We also needed a ‘railway sleeper’ step replacing alongside. The beds are three to four meters square and there are four so not a small task.

Radial Joinery gave us a competitive quote and got on with the job.

Although the job sounds simple it was actually quite complicated requiring mitre joints at the corners. They also need to be fixed soundly, as the tops of the raised beds are designed to be sat on and, sometimes, stood on.

We also had small additional work for radial to do whilst they we there.

It turned out to be a ‘full on’ days work for Ian and his assistant – the finished job was excellent in all aspects.

The old, rotten decking planks were taken away by Radial and they vacuumed the sawdust away in all areas of their work.

Altogether, a great job - well done

I’ve had Ian from Radial Joinery at my house to do some work several times in the last few years. He’s always been on time, well kitted out for whatever job is needed and very able to turn his hand to anything. Replacing internal doors and skirting boards, built wardrobes, replaced decking, mended kitchen cupboards, put up shelves and also carved an awkward outside towel rack for my hot tub. As long as you provide him with decent coffee, he’s excellent to employ.
