Bespoke Hook On Library Ladders

We regularly receive enquiries about designing bespoke library ladders in all shapes, sizes, materials and mechanisms. This particular project is a great example of the kind of collaboration clients can expect to receive from Andrew Nebbett Designs, in order to achieve exactly the right solution for their space. The brief was to design and create a bespoke hook-on library ladder that would be installed against our client’s existing bookcase.

Some projects can take a while to come to fruition and we are delighted to have completed this one for clients in the US. The brief was very specific: to create a nickel-plated hook-on library ladder and continuous rail for a dressing room, to match the room’s existing stainless steel accents.

We were contacted by an architect to look at creating a custom-made library ladder and rails for her clients’ home in the Royal Crescent, Bath.

Working with a long-standing client and cabinet-maker, we were delighted to collaborate on another project for two bespoke pieces intended for his and hers dressing rooms.

We were approached by a trusted designer, for whom we have produced bespoke items in the past, to produce a ladder and rail system for an elegant kitchen.

How do you find a wooden ladder to reach up to the heights of a period property ceiling yet small enough to be stowed away in a secret cupboard? The answer is… to talk to Andrew Nebbett Designs!

A world-renowned luxury furniture designer contacted us, and asked us to collaborate on a beautiful project they were working on. The aspect we were to design was our speciality; a bespoke hook-on ladder and rail system.

This project came to us through a respected British Interior Designer, with whom we have worked on a number of projects in the past. This particular project was based in Boston, MA. The property was a particularly fine penthouse unit in…
