What is Alcove Shelving?
Alcove units are most commonly the combination of base cupboard and shelves fitted in to a small recessed area of the room or arched opening known as an alcove.Lighting or power sockets can be hidden underneath, or fitted in a discreet position to add functionality and versatility to the unit without drawing attention away and distracting from the aesthetic.
How Many Alcove Shelves Should I Have?
The height of your alcove cupboard will very much depend on the purpose of the cupboard. Traditionally alcove unit cupboards have alway been built to an 80cm height, which is the same as a sideboard. Contemporary uses of the alcove cupboard are generally TV and gaming related which may require a more bespoke, lower height. We can help whatever your requirements may be.
