Soft Close Blum Hinges

Simply the best hinges we have used over years of furniture making. Slows the doors from slamming shut without any unnecessary loud banging. They are cleverly designed to ensure doors are aligned to the framework perfectly.

The property is a 1930's semi-detached house. We are looking to have the following done:

  1. Two alcove floor to ceiling (or near ceiling) book shelves with cabinets in the living room. One of these cabinets will need to hold vinyl records and a hi-fi system. And some sort of built in lighting could be lovely. There are sockets in each alcove. Since the house is 1930s, we were hoping to create the shelves in a style that reflected the era. We attach a number of examples we found online. Your website also had similar styled shelves. We would like to have them painted white to match the trim in the house.The measurements of the alcoves are 89cm wide, 36.5cm deep, and 262cm high; 118.5cm wide, 35.5 deep and 263cm high. We assume the depth will be determined on functionality and use. We attach a poor photo of the space.
  2. Two tall wardrobes in the master bedroom. Again, we attach photos of some styles we think will fit the era of the house. The measurements are 88cm wide, 36cm depth and 296 high; 159cm wide, 36 deep and 296 high. Again, we assume the depth of the wardrobes will need to stick out a bit to accommodate hanging clothes. We also attach a photo of that space.
  3. A wardrobe with drawers and storage area in a large eve space in the guest room. We attach a photo of a similar type space and solutions, as well as photos of the actual space.  The measurements are 338 wide, 89cm deep, and slanted ceiling.
  4. A floor to ceiling book shelve in a small alcove in the office, plus a book shelve along the wall under an eve. The measurement of the alcove space is 163cm wide, 35cm deep, and 208cm high. The eve space is 377cm wide 66cm tall. We attach photos of the actual space, and some examples of shelves I found online.

A few notes. We would like all the things you build to match in terms of style. And, to all be painted the same white. We are open to any ideas in terms of style and functionality and form your website you are clearly gifted in designing nice spaces. Except for the living room all rooms have new carpets put in by the seller (we will be removing the carpet for wood floors in the living room). I assume you will need to remove the carpet in the other rooms where you build the shelves, etc.   I think that covers the details.   Lastly, we are also looking for a builder who could potentially lay new wood floors on the bottom floor of the house (living room, dinning room, hall and kitchen). We also need to have a dishwasher put into an existing kitchen cabinet as well as a washing machine fitted into an upstairs bathroom (perhaps with a nice cabinet built to hide it. If you are also interested in doing this work, then we would love to speak to you about that as well. Or, perhaps you have a trusted friend in the business that you could recommend. Our guess is th        at this will be the first in many jobs in the future, since the property is basically a blank canvas. All remodelled, but only the basics.

The timber we use come from sustainable sources with either FSC or PEFC certification.
