Welcome to high gloss shelves fitted. We have both a manufacture and fitting service available. High gloss shelves fitted can be finished in virtually any colour, so feel free to inquire for your particular high gloss shelves fitted requirements.
High gloss shelves fitted have worked out of a unit in Romford, North East London since 2007. We specialise in making and fitting high gloss shelves. Our preferred materials are Walnut; Oak; Birch; Mapel or any of the hardwood veneered MDF and Ply products, however when painting/spraying we will use MDF ply or pine depending on strength and design requirements. High gloss finishes both in the wood or paint finish are our specialty. Lead times are usually 2 - 3 weeks. Prices are given on a job by job basis so feel free to get your quote.
How might your high gloss fitted shelves be made by you, and turn your fitted gloss shelves into real floating shelves? Ans: It's a process that starts with the right materials. Next you need accurate specifications, then it's just a question of matching the two in the right mix.
Specifications vary according to requirements. If in any doubt just drop a line to gain the right shelf for you.
Some cabinets can be made with 18mm mdf whereas others need to be a composite of 2 ply 12mm with an 18mm seperator.
Ofcourse one of these choices is down to design, but if you want thin and strong, then the material may need to be upgraded to pine or even oak!
Costs vary ofcourse, and a mixture of materials could get you what you want at a much lower cost.
Why not consider turning your ideas for shelves into reallity using information collect here? Most people when thinking of making floating shelves are torn between using solid wood and the ultra thin, usually high gloss, or pretend wood bought at some high street stores. Well there is an alternative.
There are various stages that have to be followed.
Stage 1: find the measurements of the shelves you require including the length width height and quantity.
Stage 2: Here you'll need to decide on the materials, this can simply be a question of money or finish. I'll explain: Solid oak is exspensive and requires lots of hard work to make it the right size and therefore fit but the finish will always be great regardless of it being painted or varnished etc. Or you could chose MDF which is much cheaper and also takes less work to make it fit and it's just as easy to paint and stain as oak. But ofcourse with MDF you run the risk that your shelf fail, due to excess loads. So oak is a cost=lose quality=win strength=win and MDF is a cost=win quality=win strength=lose. It would have to be excess loads that made a MDF shelf fail. So perhaps the middle ground is MDF with a strengthend core?
Stage 3:
But if you chose the oak, it would always be strong enough and can be painted just as easily as mdf. However if you chose pine, a bit cheaper then oak, but still potentially lots of work to get it the right size and this choice does not paint so well, unless it's in an alcove.
