Why bespoke in Northwick Park?
Standard units come in fixed sizes, so gaps are common. Ours are scribed to the walls and can run up to the ceiling with shelves and cupboards around the screen. Newer homes often have compact rooms where standard furniture leaves tricky gaps, and fitted furniture uses that space. It works around service boxing too.
The inside of the furniture affects the price as well: rails, shelves, drawers and dividers all add work. We’ll talk through what you need inside at the measuring visit, and the quote follows.
Why choose us
- We visit, measure and talk through the design before we quote
- Made in our workshop, then fitted in your home
- Built from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood
- Made for your room, not a standard size

How we make TV and media units for Northwick Park
A built-in TV unit gives the screen, the boxes, the speakers and the cables one planned home. Instead of a stand, a tangle of wires and a few odd shelves, the whole wall is designed at once. If you are planning a TV unit in Northwick Park, we start with a design visit to measure and talk through what you use. Typical reasons to get in touch are equipment with nowhere proper to go and clutter around the TV, and the answer is built in our workshop from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, spray-painted or hand-painted.
Newer homes often come with a TV point and sockets on one wall but nothing built around them. A good number of homes around Northwick Park went up since 2000, so we design TV and media units around the existing points rather than moving them. Any new socket is a job for your electrician.
The written quote puts the design visit in writing: the layout and internal fittings, the materials and the finish. If something is not quite right, tell us before anything is made.

Tips worth knowing
Looking after painted furniture is simple. These habits help most:
- Mention parking and stairs when we visit
- Talk to your electrician early about sockets
- Choose how the TV will sit before the design is finished
- Check where the seating will go
Use the access panels and cable routes when you add or change leads. It keeps everything neat.
Avoid piling devices on one shelf because heat builds up between them. Give each its own space.
Bespoke or off-the-shelf?
Where bespoke earns its keep is in rooms that aren’t square. In period homes, walls lean, floors slope and the alcoves on each side are often different widths, and standard units leave gaps.
The real difference is in the fit: scribed edges, a level base on an uneven floor and furniture that meets the ceiling, skirting and picture rail. In an older room, standard units rarely manage that.
TV and media units for homes in Northwick Park
In the area around Northwick Park, the largest groups of homes date from the years since 2000 (about 39%) and between 1919 and 1939 (about 35%), in the VOA’s 2025 council tax stock figures. That matters for TV and media units, as the build era decides whether a wall is solid brick, lath and plaster, block or plasterboard. There are 14 entries on the National Heritage List within half a mile of the centre of Northwick Park. Being near listed buildings does not make a home listed, and you can check any address on Historic England’s list. Purpose-built flats are home to about 49% of households in the neighbourhood around Northwick Park, going by Census 2021 figures from the ONS. In a block, each section is sized to get up the stairs or into the lift and through the door. Many blocks have rules on lift booking and working hours, so check with the managing agent before fitting day.
If your home is one of the older houses near Saint Cuthberts Church, the alcoves beside a chimney breast are the natural place for TV and media units. Living in a block of flats near Kenton station? Then the lift, the stair turns and the front door all set the largest piece that can come in. If you live near Preston Park, TV and media units can be arranged to keep the window and the light clear.
Northwick Park is in the London Borough of Brent, about 6 miles south-east of Kilburn. We design and make TV and media units for homes in Northwick Park, as part of our work in every London borough. In Brent, Northwick Park is one of the places we cover, and the borough has 29 places on our list.
We make TV and media units across HA1, HA3 and HA0. We cover homes on streets like Lyon Road, Manor Road and Gayton Road, along with the roads around them, whether you want TV and media units or another piece made for the room. The A404 runs close to Northwick Park; on busy main roads, unloading TV and media units takes a little planning. Nearby, we also make TV and media units in Greenhill (1 mile north-west), Harrow on the Hill (1 mile south-west), South Kenton (1 mile east), Kenton (1 mile north-east) and Harrow (1 mile west). Across the rest of Brent, our area takes in Kilburn (6 miles south-east), Neasden (4 miles east), Harlesden (4 miles south-east), Wembley (2 miles south-east), Queen's Park (6 miles south-east) and Church End (4 miles south-east).
What’s near Northwick Park
We fit furniture in homes around Trinity Bar, Orley Farm School and St Anselm's Catholic Primary School, among other places. Northwick Park’s nearest station is Kenton station, roughly 0.6 miles north-east of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include Northwick Park Hospital (within half a mile north-east) and Kodak Museum (1.5 miles north-west).
How fitting works for TV and media units
The last stage of the day is the finish. If the furniture was spray painted in the workshop, we fill the fixing holes and touch up on site; if you chose hand painting, that can be done in the room once the furniture is fitted. Either way, the finish is the one set out in your quote. Fitting day starts by covering floors and setting out the sections. The pieces are levelled and fixed with fixings that suit the wall. Hand-painted finishes can be completed once the furniture is in.
- To begin, drop us a line using the contact form; a brief note on the TV wall and everything that plugs into it is plenty.
- At the design visit we measure the wall and plan cable routes and ventilation, as set-top boxes, consoles and amplifiers need air.
- A quote in writing follows for the unit.
- The unit is built in our workshop from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, with cable openings and vents cut in.
- We fit it in your home and leave the cable routes ready for you to use.
Getting ready for fitting day
- Have your electrician move any sockets or switches beforehand
- Tell us about any meters, fuse boards or boilers in the area
- Move furniture and belongings away from the wall
How to get a quote
A quote begins with a few details from you: which room it is, rough measurements and a couple of pictures if you can take them. When you are ready, fill in our short enquiry form. We will then arrange a design visit and follow it with a written quote.

Questions from Northwick Park
Can you make TV and media units for a home in Northwick Park?
Yes, we work across Brent, Northwick Park included, and across the rest of London. To get started, you can tell us about the room on our contact form with some details.
Will a conservation area stop me having TV and media units fitted in Northwick Park?
Typically not: conservation area rules mainly cover the outside of buildings, and fitted furniture inside a house doesn’t normally need planning permission. Listed buildings are different, as works inside that affect their character may need listed building consent from the council. If you are unsure, the council can confirm.
Do I need to be in when you fit?
Someone needs to let us in. It also helps to have someone around at the end, so we can go over the finished furniture together.
Do I get to choose the colour?
You do. The paint colour is agreed with you.
Should I send photos?
Yes, they help. Photos of the whole wall or room, including the floor and ceiling, give us a good idea of the space, especially with rough measurements. You can send them when you fill in our short enquiry form.
What if my walls and floors are out of level?
That’s normal in older homes, and it is what scribing is for. Edges are scribed to the wall, and adjustable feet or a plinth bring the furniture up to level.
