Entrance Hall

We produce a large amount of bespoke hardware and smaller individual components each year. Towards the end of last year, we commenced working on a new project to design and manufacture a set of custom barn door hardware items.

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.

Our client contacted us looking for a bespoke ladder solution for her bookcase. With an existing, and rather wobbly ladder and rail system that needed replacing, she was keen to discuss her requirements further, explaining the new system would need to accommodate her 2.7m high storage.

We were contacted by a client carrying out an interior re-fit of a public library in Ireland. Their design required a hook-on library ladder and rails to access the books at the very top of the bookshelves – some three metres up!

We were contacted via Instagram by interior design company, Covet Noir, who had a very specific idea for a bespoke rolling library ladder.

During the first lockdown in 2020, we were contacted by a high-end interior designer, whose search for a unique rolling ladder system had brought her to the Andrew Nebbett Designs’ website.

We were recently contacted by a bedroom furniture designer who was looking for a bespoke bedroom ladder solution for his client.

The ladder needed to address a number of factors, from perfectly matching the clients’ existing interior, to having a mechanism that would adjust the height of the ladder according to use – tall enough to reach the storage shelves above the client’s wardrobes, and short enough to be stowed away in a cupboard when not in use.

When we think of the word bronze, we often conjure images of beautiful art works of behemoth proportions, vast Henry Moore, or Barbara Hepworth sculptures. However, in our world of bespoke furniture and storage design, bronze and bronze colour and finish, has many other applications and meanings.

When we were approached by a high end firm of cabinet makers, a company with whom we have worked on many projects over the years, we were rather excited by the brief. Though very specific – to create a pair of metal terrace doors that needed to have a delicate and jewel-like quality – we relished the opportunity to once again showcase our design and fabrication skills.

Taking the conventional out of an everyday object, we were super excited by this project brief – to turn the boring into the bold, the beautiful and the bespoke, with the creation of an exterior door for existing clients who were keen to incorporate more Andrew Nebbett Designs products into their new home.
