Alcove Units Bexhill
Bespoke Alcove Units Bexhill
Every alcove, perfectly filled.
Using the height your house already has.
Bespoke Alcove Cupboards & Shelving in Bexhill
Edwardian and inter-war houses in Bexhill often have generous ceilings and proper chimney breasts, which means deep alcoves with far more storage potential than a standard unit can use.
We build alcove units to measure in our Pevensey workshop, about eight miles along the coast, then spray and fit them ourselves. Being close means that if a unit needs a final adjustment on the day, it gets done properly rather than left for another visit.
We work across the whole town, including the seafront, Little Common, Cooden, Sidley and the Old Town.
- Built to the full height of Edwardian rooms
- Deep cupboards that make the most of wide alcoves
- Space planned for the TV and cables
- Hand-sprayed in any colour

Options
Alcove units we make in Bexhill
Every unit is measured and built for your alcoves in our own workshop, then hand-sprayed in any colour.
Alcove shelving
Open shelving that runs to the ceiling, making use of the height most Bexhill houses have to spare.

Cupboards with shelving
Cupboards below and shelving above, often with a TV or sound bar planned into one side.
Ideas
What an alcove can do
Alcoves are one of the most flexible spaces in a Bexhill home. These are the three things people ask us for most.
Media & TV units
Alcoves either side of a TV make a natural media wall, with speakers, consoles and cables hidden behind doors.
Books & display
Shelving sized to your books and objects, with optional lighting to pick out the things you want on show.
Desk & home office
A fold-away or fixed desk built into one alcove, with shelving above, so work stays tidy and out of the way.
Finishes
Doors, details and paint
Every door and panel is made and sprayed in our workshop, so you are not limited to a supplier’s range.
Door styles
Shaker, flat panel or in-frame doors, with open shelving or glazed doors where you want to display rather than hide.
Paint & colour
Hand-sprayed in our own booth in any colour, including Farrow & Ball and Little Greene matches, or left as natural timber.
Details & lighting
Matching skirting and cornice, integrated LED lighting and handles chosen to suit the rest of the room.

FAQs
Bexhill alcove unit questions, answered
Do you cover all of Bexhill?
Yes, the whole town including Little Common, Cooden, Sidley, Old Town and the seafront. Our workshop is in Pevensey, roughly eight miles away.
Can you use the full height of the room?
Yes, and it is usually the biggest gain. We run units to the ceiling, with a separate upper section for things you only need occasionally.
Can you build around a TV and hide the cables?
Yes. We plan cable routes, sockets and ventilation at the design stage, so the finished units look tidy with nothing on show.
Shelving, cupboards or both?
Whatever suits the room. Cupboards below and shelving above is the most popular choice, but we will talk through the options at the design visit.
How much do alcove units cost in Bexhill?
There is no fixed price list, because cost depends on the size of the alcoves, the mix of storage and the finish. We do a free design visit and give you a clear, itemised quote with no obligation.
What else do you make?
Kitchens, fitted wardrobes, bookcases, media walls, home offices and under-stairs storage, all from the same workshop.
