Attic Robes

[mailee]

Got these fitted over the last couple of days. had a bit of a problem with the robes as the ceiling swept up at one point more than I had allowed on the filler strip. I will have to make a new filler strip and return to fit it along with the cornice. I will have to then fit the handles as the wrong ones were sent.
Anyway here are the photos so far.

I managed to get the drawer units fitted with a bit more luck but even this gave me a headache as one of the drawer runners broke as soon as the box was fitted! As soon as the box was slid in one of the small plastic tabs broke off for the soft close! It still works well but without soft close now. I shall have to order another set or maybe even complain a bit and see what happens. Here are the photos of these in place and these were the correct handles....luckily. Ignore the screw holes in the architrave as they might be coming off again to accommodate a slide out shoe rack next to the drawers. (More work for me)

That is a good way of utilising some awkwardly shaped space

The drawers are a good idea as this space is often just wasted!

I got these finished today as the door knobs turned up. I fitted the trim strip and the cornice and the customer was very happy with them.

I also added a small trim strip to the bottom of the drawers to cover a gap and filled the screw holes.

I am getting the duff runners replaced FOC so will return to fit those in a week or two.

Nice work as per usual Mailee. Some nice ideas to utilise awkward spaces.

Very smart! I am stealing a few of those ideas ;)
