Bespoke bookcases made from scratch by hand - can be made to any size and style. Usually made within 3 to 4 weeks.

With any number of fixed or adjustable shelves. Wax finished, painted in a Farrow & Ball colour of your choice, or supplied in the bare wood. Large bookcases can be made to partly dismantle if access is limited. We usually make our bookcases from 18mm boards.

Made to measure pine wall hanging shelving units - with or without drawers

Below: a couple of wall hanging shelving units we have made (from very clean reclaimed pine). These can be made to any size, with or without drawers, and in a design of your choice. Please ask for more details or a quote (contact form near bottom of page). The 2 below are photographed in bare wood. They can be supplied in bare wood, waxed, or painted for you.

Waxed, painted, or bare wood

Your bookcase can be waxed in a wax tone/colour of your liking, hand painted in any Farrow & Ball colour, or we can leave it in the bare wood for you to finish it yourselves. You might like us to treat the wood with a caustic solution if you intend to wax it yourselves, so the wax takes to the wood better.

A painted bookcase is likely to take up to 2 weeks longer than a waxed or bare wood bookcase, as we like to make sure the paint is totally cured before organising delivery. Please ask for more details..

Bookcase options (Click image to expand)

Adjustable or fixed shelves?

We can make bookcases with adjustable, or fixed shelves. The adjustable shelves in our new pine bookcases are supported with 'banjo' supports (small metal rings which can be slotted into the selected holes). The standard adjustment increment is 75mm, but this can be as required. Standard practice is to fit a ‘front frame’ running vertically usually 3 to 4cm wide to hide these. Front frames can also be fitted to ‘fixed shelf bookcases’ if you wish. If you’d like a fixed shelf bookcase we can obviously fit the shelves where required. Also you could have a bookcase with some fixed, and some adjustable shelves.

With doors or drawers

We can also fit doors to some part of the bookcase if you wish. You might like to hide the bottom section of the bookcase. Or maybe you’d like drawers at the bottom. As all the bookcases are made from scratch by hand this can be done for you. Just let us know your requirements.

Cut-out for skirting board

We can cut a piece out at the bottom of your bookcase to allow for your skirting board if required, so it fits flush against your wall.

Any size or style

We can make any style of bookcase: 1-piece corner bookcases, large multi piece corner bookcases, very large bookcases which need to dismantle, ‘waterfall’ style bookcases which are shallower at the top tapering to a deeper base, each with adjustable or fixed shelves, and waxed, hand-painted or left in bare wood for you. If you find a style of bookcase online: just send us a link and we may be able to copy it, or send us a sketch with dimensions and we’ll get back to you with a quote.

More bookcases we have made in the past:

Below: a large pine corner bookcase we have made for a customer. Each with 8 adjustable shelves, a cornice top, and wax finished. Made to size - to fit in the corner of their study. Delivered and assembled on site (built in 2 parts). We got pretty close to the colour of their desk, so they fitted in well.
