TV and media units in Grahame Park: local notes
The biggest shares of homes in the area around Grahame Park were built since 2000 (about 54%) and between 1973 and 1999 (about 20%), according to Valuation Office Agency council tax figures (2025). Knowing roughly when a home was built helps, because walls and fixings change from one era to the next. There are 8 entries on the National Heritage List within half a mile of the centre of Grahame Park. Being near listed buildings does not make a home listed, and you can check any address on Historic England’s list. The ULEZ (Ultra Low Emission Zone) now covers the whole of London, Barnet included. It applies to every van that comes to fit furniture in Grahame Park. How the van gets to your door is planned at the design visit.
Close to Sunny Hill Park? Shelving that stops short of the window keeps the view of the green. For families living near St James' Catholic High School, TV and media units can be planned with low cupboards for toys and higher shelves for everything else.

TV and media units for homes in Grahame Park
Hiding the cables is often the main aim. Cable routes are built into the design from the start, with openings and removable panels so you can add or swap leads later. We make the routes, and your electrician handles any wiring. If you’re living with equipment running hot in a closed cupboard and a TV stand that doesn’t fit the wall, TV and media units made from moisture-resistant MDF and strong birch plywood, with a painted finish can solve it.
Newer homes often come with a TV point and sockets on one wall but nothing built around them. Many homes around Grahame Park are from those years, so we design TV and media units around the existing points rather than moving them. If you want an extra socket, that’s for your electrician, and we leave space and cable routes for it.
Where other trades are needed, for instance an electrician to move a socket, we point that out. Our quote covers the carpentry: the design, the materials and the finish.

Places near Grahame Park
Other services in Grahame Park
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.
Flat-pack and off-the-shelf furniture has its place. If the walls are straight and the space suits standard sizes, it often does the job.
Is it time for TV and media units?
Upgrading to a bigger screen is a common trigger. The old stand no longer suits it, or the screen takes over the room. Shelves and cupboards around the screen make it sit better in the room.
Common reasons to get in touch include:
- Cables trailing across the wall
- Boxes and consoles on the floor
- Wasted space around the screen
- Nowhere good for speakers
If your home is one of the older houses near St Augustine Grahame Park, picture rails and cornices give TV and media units a line to finish at.
What to check before you book
- Have they thought about parking near you?
- Will the doors close with even gaps?
- Whether you’ll get a quote in writing, not just a figure
- Whether they measure the room themselves
Before and after fitting day
These points come up often when people plan TV and media units. They’re worth knowing before and after fitting:
- Decide where you will sit, so the screen height suits it
- Measure your TV, or the size you expect to buy next
- Tell us about parking and access during the design visit
- Plan open spaces for anything controlled by a remote
Paint is dry to the touch well before it has fully cured. At first, lift boxes and speakers into place rather than pushing them to avoid marks.
Ask your electrician about new sockets rather than running extension leads through the unit, and don’t overload sockets.
Questions from Grahame Park
Do you make TV and media units for homes in Grahame Park?
Yes, we work across Barnet, Grahame Park included, and across the rest of London. To get started, you can get in touch through our contact form with a few details.
My home in Grahame Park is a flat. How do you get the furniture in?
At the design visit, we measure the way in not just the room. The furniture is made in sections that fit the stairs and lift, and put together in the room. If your building has rules on lift booking or working hours, or your lease needs consent for alterations, it’s worth checking those early.
How is the price worked out?
Each room is quoted on its own: size, internal fittings, the finish and how tricky the walls are all play a part. You will get a quote in writing once we have measured up.
Can I send pictures ahead of the visit?
Yes. Pictures help us understand the room before the design visit. It is useful to show radiators, sockets and anything else on the wall.
Is the furniture spray painted or hand painted?
You can choose between two finishes: by spray or by hand. A spray finish is smooth and even, while a hand-painted one is easy to touch up later.
What if the wall is cold or damp?
It needs a little planning: ventilation behind and inside the furniture helps avoid condensation and mould. We do not treat damp, so any damp should be sorted before fitting day.
Fitting day, step by step
Once the main sections are fixed in place, any doors go on and any drawers or lids are fitted. Each one is adjusted until the gaps are even and it closes cleanly. How long fitting takes depends on the size of the unit and how many cupboards and shelves it has, and your quote sets out the fitting days. Walls in newer homes are often plasterboard on studs, so on fitting day heavy pieces go into the studs or stand on the floor. Floors are covered while we work.
- You send us some details about the TV, the boxes and the speakers you use.
- We visit to measure the wall and discuss the design.
- You receive a written quote setting out the unit, materials and finish.
- We make the cupboards, shelves and panels in our workshop, using moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood.
- We fit it in your home, with the cable routes ready to use.
Getting ready for fitting day
- Make sure pets are kept safely away
- Check the building’s rules for trades and lift bookings
- Move furniture and belongings away from the wall
Ask for a quote
Getting a quote starts with some details: the room, rough sizes and some pictures if you have them. To send them, message us from the contact page. After that, we arrange a visit to measure and go through the design, then send a written quote.

What affects the price in Grahame Park
When we put a quote together, we consider:
- How big the furniture is
- What goes inside: rails, shelves, drawers and dividers
- How square the room is
- How many doors and drawers there are
Parking is part of the price picture in London. The boroughs run controlled parking zones across much of the city, so a van may need a visitor permit, a paid bay or a bay suspension. Let us know about parking during the design visit, so we can plan for it.
Helping us understand the room
The more you can tell us at the start, the better the design visit goes. When you get in touch, it’s useful to send:
- Approximate measurements of the space
- Pictures of styles you like, if you have any
- Photos of the whole wall or room, including the floor and ceiling
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
To get a quote, send us a few details through our contact form and let us know which room you have in mind and what you want the furniture to do. We then arrange a design visit to measure and talk through the design, and a quote in writing follows.
