Bespoke Fitted Home Offices

Bespoke home office storage typically costs around £580-£1,020 per linear metre for cabinetry, excluding installation. The final price depends on size and layout, the complexity of the design, and the durability needed for your daily office use. At DAY & KNIGHT we include installation, which is not always offered by other fitted furniture manufacturers and can add further cost to online prices, alongside delivery, bespoke design, and finishing touches.

Key price drivers include materials (melamine or MDF at the lower end, veneered or solid timber higher), finishes (hand-painted vs spray-lacquered), and hardware quality (soft-close hinges, heavy-duty runners). Customisation such as filing drawers, cable management, pull-out printer shelves, integrated power, lighting, or doors versus open shelving will raise costs.

Site conditions also matter: awkward alcoves, sloping ceilings, and scribing to skirtings or coving add labour. If you need extra durability-thicker carcasses, scratch-resistant laminates, or commercial-grade fittings-expect to budget toward the upper end of the range.

At DAY & KNIGHT, we offer a range of materials for bespoke home office cupboards and storage units, including real woods, MDF, veneers, laminates and even glass for doors. Real woods such as oak or walnut are inherently durable, can be refinished over time, and bring natural warmth and distinctive grain. MDF is dense and stable, ideal for crisp detailing and flawless painted finishes, with good resistance to warping. Veneers deliver the authentic look of timber on a stable core, offering a refined appearance with reliable performance and a lighter weight.

Laminates are exceptionally hard-wearing, easy to clean and resistant to scratches and stains, with a wide choice of colours and textures from soft matt to high gloss. Toughened glass door panels add a contemporary, airy feel, let you display items neatly, and pair beautifully with any carcase material. We can also combine materials to balance longevity, maintenance and style, tailoring every element to your space.

All the materials we manufacture our bespoke home office storage units from are easy to live with and maintain. Real wood rewards a little routine care: dust with a soft cloth, wipe spills promptly, and occasionally nourish with a suitable wax or oil to keep the grain looking rich. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight and extreme humidity, and use felt pads under accessories to prevent fine scratches.

Engineered options are even simpler. MDF (painted or lacquered) just needs a gentle wipe with a damp cloth; avoid standing water and touch up scuffs with matching paint if they occur. Veneers should be treated like fine wood-regular dusting and a sparing use of a quality furniture polish, avoiding harsh cleaners and protecting edges.

Laminates are the most forgiving: a quick clean with mild soapy water removes marks, while abrasive pads and hot items should be avoided. Glass doors stay pristine with a microfibre cloth and a pH-neutral glass cleaner; spray onto the cloth rather than the frame, and finish with a dry buff to banish fingerprints.

Absolutely. DAY & KNIGHT’s bespoke home office storage units and cupboards can be specified with discreet cable management and integrated power. We can provide built-in routed cable channels, false backs and removable access panels, along with brush grommets and under-shelf trays to keep leads hidden yet serviceable. Options include flush or pop-up power modules, neatly integrated USB-A/USB-C fast charging, RJ45 LAN ports for stable networking, and even wireless charging pads concealed within desktops or shelves-keeping worktops tidy without compromising connectivity.

For lighting, we can incorporate dimmable LED strips within cupboards and under shelves for task or ambient illumination, with touch or PIR sensors and concealed drivers. Where active kit is stored, we allow for ventilation and easy access to ports, ensuring practicality and safety. All electrical components are fitted to UK standards by qualified professionals, delivering a clean, high-performance finish tailored to your space.

Installation is handled entirely by DAY & KNIGHT using our own fully qualified, highly experienced fitting team. We plan the work carefully, schedule at times that suit you, use protective coverings, and tidy as we go, therefore disruption is kept to an absolute minimum.

Before we start, we confirm the details on a pre-installation visit and keep you informed throughout. If you have specific fitment requirements, please discuss these with our friendly team and we’ll tailor the installation accordingly.

Certainly, at DAY & KNIGHT we specialise in exactly that, manufacturing all our fitted furniture to make the most of every centimetre, not just our bespoke home office cupboards and storage units. Our designers assess your space and brief, then tailor dimensions and layouts to suit awkward angles, alcoves and sloping ceilings.

Expect floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, clever corner solutions, adjustable shelving, integrated drawers and pull-outs, and discreet cable management that keeps everything orderly without wasting space; ensuring optimum results every time.

Yes, we can design and build hidden compartments and other concealed storage to keep your home office clutter-free and professional. Options include false-bottom drawers, secret panels behind shelving, push-latch fascias with magnetic releases, and discreet cable management so everything looks clean and intentional.

Clients often request concealed units to house mini-safes or secure lock boxes, which we can integrate seamlessly within our custom made cupboards. We can even incorporate secret Murphy doors within our bespoke cabinetry to hide access to other rooms, all finished to match your décor for a cohesive look.

Indeed, at DAY & KNIGHT we can tailor your bespoke home office storage to fit specific items, from large printers and dual monitors to desktop towers, scanners and structured filing systems.
