Power and light inside an alcove unit

Alcove joinery is the most common place in a house where a socket ends up behind a cupboard. Routers, speakers, lamps and games consoles all live in alcoves, and every one of them needs a plug and somewhere for its heat and its cable to go. That is a decision for the drawing stage, because cutting a carcass back afterwards is much harder than leaving the space in the first place.

Lighting is the other one. Discreet LED strip inside the shelving changes an alcove from storage into something the room is arranged around, but it needs a driver, a switched supply and a route for the cable — all of which are easy while the unit is being built and awkward later. Electrical work in Wales has its own notification rules, so it is worth agreeing who is doing what before anyone starts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. The socket can be left accessible inside a cupboard, brought through to the face of the unit, or the cabinet set out from the wall to give the plug room. It just has to be planned rather than discovered.
LED strip in the shelf front or the underside is straightforward when it is designed in, because the cable route and the driver position get built into the carcass. Retrofitting it into a finished unit is a much bigger job.
Yes, we build bespoke alcove storage across Caerphilly and the surrounding valleys. All units are made-to-measure on site and finished to a very high standard.
We typically use moisture-resistant MDF for painted finishes and solid hardwoods or oak veneers for natural wood finishes. All materials are selected for long-term durability.
Yes — we spray-paint all units in any RAL or Farrow & Ball colour to match your skirting boards, door frames, and existing furniture for a seamless look.
Most alcove units are completed in 1–2 days on site. Larger library units or those with integrated LED lighting may take 2–3 days.
