Islands and stone tops

Closet islands with stone tops

A closet island adds drawer storage and a surface for setting out clothes. We check the floor space before including one. A quartz or stone top is sourced and installed by us, with its own line on the quote.

What an island can carry

Drawers on one face
Drawer stacks use soft-close undermount slides.
Shoe shelves on the other
Slanted shoe shelves can be fitted on the opposite side of the base.
Open shelving
Open shelves provide space for bags or boxes.
A quartz or stone top
We source the slab and template it to the installed base. You choose the edge profile.
A bench-height option
A lower run against the wall can provide drawers and a work surface where an island would restrict movement.

What to know before it is drawn

Floor space
We check walking space and drawer clearance on every side during the visit.
The base
3/4-inch furniture-board panels with edge banding. Drawer modules use soft-close hardware.
The top
Quartz or stone, sourced and installed by us. Laminated-board tops are also available.
Templating
We template the top after the base is installed and levelled.
Finishes
White, Grey and Natural Oak on the base, slab or shaker fronts.

Installation questions

Is the stone part of the closet quote?
Yes. The stone top appears as a separate line on the written quote.
Will an island fit a small walk-in?
Sometimes. If the walking room does not work, a bench-height run against one wall gives you the surface and the drawers without the island.
What about lighting over it?
Puck and strip lighting can be fitted in the casework. New electrical wiring requires an electrician and is a separate scope.
