Boot room/cubby unit in our Durham cottage. Wall-to-wall storage with hidden inner cupboards behind the visible doors. Came in £445 under quote thanks to a simpler fitting plan. Site spotless every evening, no boots-in-the-hall feeling.

Three years post-install, every drawer still soft-closes perfectly. Joiner we found via BestBuilders in Durham recommended European oak over American oak for the grain pattern - clearly the right call. Total £3800. Whole project took 8 days from first day to handover.
