Under-stairs storage in Eden Park
Under-stairs storage in Eden Park
Each under-stairs cupboard is built in our workshop, using moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood. Birch plywood is strong and holds screws well, which suits drawer boxes that carry weight, while MDF takes paint well for the doors and fronts. The finish is sprayed or hand-painted, and then the storage is fitted in your home in Eden Park. If you are living with needing a compact spot for a laptop and a staircase with untidy space beneath it, under-stairs cupboards made from moisture-resistant MDF and strong birch plywood, with a painted finish can solve it.
In an area where interwar homes or semis make up much of the housing, as around Eden Park, many have had the loft converted, leaving low eaves and sloping ceilings. Fitted storage can make use of the eaves, the bay or the hall. For lofts, we work in spaces that are already converted or boarded.

How it’s made
Doors and drawer fronts
A door for the meter or fuse board can match the rest of the fronts. It opens fully so the meter stays easy to read. Around it, the other fronts can be drawers, doors or a mix.
Pull-out drawers
Drawers that pull out make the back of the space easy to use. You see everything at once, without reaching into the dark. Shoe drawers, a drawer for the vacuum and drawers for cleaning things are all possible.

How fitting works for under-stairs storage
Every fitting follows the same order: floors are protected, the sections come in, everything is levelled, scribed to the walls, fixed and finished. Then the room is tidied and we look over the work with you. How long the fitting takes depends on how much storage you want under the stairs, and your quote sets out the fitting days. It helps to clear the room and the route before we arrive. On the day, we cover the floors first, then bring the sections in. The pieces are levelled, fitted to the walls and fixed back.
- You get in touch and tell us a little about the space under your stairs.
- At the design visit we measure under the stairs and plan the drawers and doors with you.

- The drawers, doors and carcasses are built in our workshop.
- The storage is fitted in your home and checked, drawer by drawer.
Before we arrive
- Take anything hanging off the wall we are fitting to
- Book any lift and let the concierge or building manager know

Getting a quote
Getting a quote starts with a few details: the room, rough measurements and some pictures if you have them. When you’re ready, get in touch through our contact form. After that, we arrange a visit to measure and go through the design, then send a quote in writing.
Advice
Is it time for under-stairs storage?
The low end of the space is normally the problem. You can’t stand up in it, and you cannot reach the back without kneeling. Drawers that slide out on runners turn that tricky corner into useful storage.
Requests we hear often include:
- An old cupboard door that does not suit the hall
- A vacuum cleaner that has nowhere to go
- A hallway crowded with coats and shoes
- Space under the stairs that is hard to use
For a family home near Langley Park School for Boys, under-stairs cupboards can give school bags, shoes and sports kit a proper home.
Before you hire any carpenter
- How they handle walls that aren’t straight
- Whether the route into your home has been checked
- Whether the quote says what the furniture is made from
- Real projects you can actually look at
Bespoke or off-the-shelf?
A standard unit knows nothing about your meter or fuse board. Fitted in front of one, it can make access awkward for readings and safety checks. A design made for the space keeps them in clear reach from the start. Standard widths rarely add up to the length of a real wall, which fitted furniture avoids. It can use the full height too.
Prices are quoted for your room, once we’ve measured and talked through the design. A larger piece means more material and more time, so size comes first. After that, the number of doors and drawers, the internal fittings and the finish all play a part.

FAQs: under-stairs storage in Eden Park
Do you cover homes near Eden Park station?
Yes. We cover all of Bromley and the rest of London. To get started, you can tell us about the room on our contact form with a few details about the room, and tell us about parking and access at the same time.
Do you make under-stairs storage for homes in Eden Park?
Yes, we work across Bromley, Eden 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.
What is under-stairs storage made from?
We use moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood. MDF is stable and takes paint well, so it suits the doors and fronts, and birch plywood is strong, so it suits drawer boxes and carcasses. The finish is spray-painted or hand-painted.
My walls are not straight. Is that a problem?
That is normal in older homes, and it’s what scribing is for. Edges are scribed to the wall, and adjustable feet or a plinth bring the furniture up to level.
Do you do the electrics?
No. Any new wiring, sockets or lights need an electrician, and some electrical work in homes is covered by Part P of the Building Regulations. We will design around them.
Do I need permission in a conservation area?
Usually not. Fitted furniture inside a house does not normally need planning permission, even in a conservation area. If the building is listed, works affecting its character can need listed building consent.
Fitted storage in Eden Park
The biggest shares of homes in the neighbourhood around Eden Park were built between 1919 and 1939 (about 64%) and since 2000 (about 20%), in the VOA’s 2025 council tax stock figures. It’s a good starting point, though every room is still measured, as two homes of the same age rarely match. Near the centre of Eden Park, Historic England’s list includes Oak Lodge (Grade II), about 0.5 miles south, and Langley Court Chapel (Grade II), about 0.5 miles north-east. If you live in a listed building, fixing into or taking out original features such as panelling may need listed building consent. An early word with the council’s conservation officer is the best first step. Parking controls in London are set borough by borough, so Bromley has its own. If your road in Eden Park falls in a zone, the van may need a visitor permit, a paid bay or a suspended bay, which the council arranges, often with notice. Tell us what the parking is like during the design visit.
