How we make loft storage for Hanger Hill
The space behind the knee wall typically has insulation and ventilation to think about. We design the storage so it does not block airflow or crush insulation. If you have concerns about what’s behind the eaves, ask the people who did the conversion. We look at this during the design visit in Hanger Hill. People normally come to us about seasonal things cluttering the loft room and a loft room that still feels unfinished, and the answer is made at our workshop from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, finished by spray or by hand.
Outside walls in houses from before 1919 are usually solid brick, which can be cold, so a gap and ventilation behind fitted storage help avoid condensation. That matters around Hanger Hill, where a large share of the homes are that old. Any damp is dealt with before storage goes in.
Where other trades are needed, for example an electrician to move a socket, we point that out. Our quote covers the carpentry: the design, the materials and the finish.

What prompts loft storage in Hanger Hill
A new loft conversion often needs storage to finish it. The room is there, but the furniture to fit it isn’t. Storage made for the slopes completes it.
Some of the things we are asked to solve are these:
- Clothes with nowhere to go in a loft bedroom
- Unused space in a dormer
- Seasonal things cluttering the loft room
- A new loft conversion that needs storage
Pitzhanger Manor, about 1.2 miles south-west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area. For a period home anywhere nearby, the low eaves and slopes of a converted loft are worth using.
Choosing a carpenter
- Which parts of the job need an electrician or a plumber
- Whether they measure the room themselves
- Have they thought about parking near you?
- Are the boards named, such as MDF or plywood?

Tips worth knowing
A little care keeps the finish looking good, whether it was spray painted or hand painted. These practical tips help:
- Tell us about parking at the measuring visit
- Choose a calm colour for the loft
- Empty the eaves so we can see what’s behind
- Think about how you will reach into the eaves
When we’ve finished fitting, the cupboards and drawers are ready. Paint needs time to cure fully, so treat the new finish gently at first. Keep tape and strong cleaners away from it while it settles.
Every so often, look at the handles and hinges. Tightening early stops a small looseness getting worse. If a door drops or a drawer catches, use our contact form and tell us.
When is bespoke worth it?
Long shelves are where off-the-shelf often struggles. Span, depth and the weight on it decide whether a shelf sags, so a long run needs a thicker shelf, a stiffening lip or a support. We design shelves with that in mind.
Standard units come in set widths and heights, so there is typically a gap left over at the top or at one end. Fitted furniture is made to the room’s measurements, so it can run to the ceiling and fill the width.
Hanger Hill homes and loft storage
The biggest shares of homes in the streets around Hanger Hill were built before 1919 (about 49%) and between 1919 and 1939 (about 26%), on the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures for 2025. Knowing roughly when a home was built helps, because walls and fixings change from one era to the next. Entries on the National Heritage List near the centre of Hanger Hill include West Acton Underground Station (Grade II), under half a mile south-east, and Park Royal London Regional Transport Station (Grade II), about 0.5 miles north. For a listed home, works inside that affect its character can require listed building consent from the council, for instance removing or fixing into original panelling. Check with the council’s conservation officer first. About 26% of homes in the area around Hanger Hill date from between 1919 and 1939, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax figures (2025). Many interwar houses have had their lofts converted, leaving sloping ceilings and eaves to use.
Close to Ealing Common? Living near green space often means muddy boots, bikes and outdoor kit, and eaves cupboards can give those things a place. If your children go to Holy Family Catholic Primary School or a school nearby, eaves cupboards can be planned around what a family needs to keep, from coats and bags to sports kit.

From workshop to your room
There isn’t much for you to do on fitting day. Someone needs to let us in, and it helps to have the room cleared beforehand. After that, it is over to us: the floors are covered, the sections come in and the fitting begins. The time the fitting takes depends on the shape of the room and the number of cupboards and drawers, and the fitting days are agreed in your quote. If your hall still has its original tiles or boards, they’re covered before any carrying starts. Drilling into lath and plaster is done with care, so the plaster around stays sound. Decorating around the furniture afterwards is for your decorator.
- First we hear about the loft room and what you’d like to store.
- At the design visit, the room and the route up are measured.
- The design is agreed and a written quote follows, with the finish set out.
- The storage is built in our workshop, in sections sized for the stairs.
- The storage is fitted, scribed to the slopes and checked with you. Any hand painting is done in the loft.
Before fitting day
- Empty the space we will be working in
- Let us know if your street is in a controlled parking zone
- If you live in a block, book the lift and tell the building manager

Questions from Hanger Hill
Can you fit furniture in a home close to Acton Main Line station?
Yes, homes across Ealing and the rest of London are within the area we cover. To get started, you can message us from the contact page with a few details about the room, and tell us about parking and access at the same time.
I live in a flat in Hanger Hill. How will the furniture get up the stairs?
At the design visit, we measure the way in as well as the room. Eaves cupboards are built in our workshop in sections sized to fit that route, then assembled in your flat. If your building has rules on lift booking or working hours, or your lease needs consent for alterations, it is worth checking those early.
How long is the fitting for eaves storage?
The time the fitting takes depends on the shape of the room and the number of cupboards and drawers, and your quote sets out the fitting days. Every part is made in our workshop before we arrive. Saturday fitting is possible by prior arrangement.
Do you move sockets or add lighting?
No. Any new wiring, sockets or lights need an electrician. We will design around them.
How is loft storage priced?
The price comes in a written quote, worked out from the measurements and the design you choose. Drawers in the knee wall usually involve more work than simple cupboards, and the finish matters too. We set it all out in a written quote.
What if the wall is cold or damp?
It needs a little planning: leaving ventilation behind and inside helps stop condensation. We do not treat damp, so any damp should be sorted before fitting day.
Where other trades come in
Damp treatment and building work are for other specialists, so these points are worth knowing:
- Fixing damp or ventilation problems in the eaves
- Loft conversions, which we do not carry out
- Structural changes, such as cutting into rafters or joists
