Can you assemble media furniture in Soho W1D?
Yes. We assemble flat pack media cabinets, low drawer units and other storage in Soho. Send the model links and full postcode. Mark the sockets, cable openings and route past the unit. Tell us if the fitter needs a separate entrance or if the longest box is still downstairs.
What should I check before replacing a narrow TV unit?
Measure the new unit with its doors or drawers open, and allow depth for leads and plugs. Check that any equipment has the ventilation it needs. Move and disconnect it before the visit. Give the dimensions of the narrowest doorway or turn and confirm where the fitter can unload.
Check the cabinet layout before reconnecting devices
Check the model and agree the shelf positions
We identify the furniture and confirm the cable and shelf arrangement with you. If the doors or drawers can be fitted in different positions, we check the instructions before building. Tell us if another unit is staying in the room and what access it must keep.
Open doors and check the space at the rear
At handover, try each door or drawer and confirm the planned cable routes. If an accessory is missing, keep the label and part reference before returning the equipment. Save the instructions and spare supplied fittings so you can identify them if you need to change the shelf layout later.
| Check at handover | Try before putting equipment back |
|---|---|
| Moving parts | Open doors and drawers in the final layout |
| Cable route | Keep plugs and sockets accessible |
| Shelves | Check the space for each piece of equipment |
Check the furniture depth with cables connected
A socket, plug or connector behind the unit can add to the space needed. Measure the depth from the wall to the edge of the route that must stay clear. Give the unit model and mark the outlet. Check whether the cable opening can be reached when shelves and doors are fitted.
If cables enter from one side, confirm where the holes or channels are on the exact model. A shelf can cover a rear outlet if the cabinet is built in another configuration. Decide where equipment will sit and what needs to be reached after the furniture is assembled. Give us those positions in advance.
Measure the full depth at the handles. If the unit is near a route through the room, check where you stand to open a drawer. If there are drop-down doors, note the space in front of them. Keep the manufacturer’s manual and exact model to hand for any change in shelf positions.
Request a Soho estimate with access and furniture details
Assembly is charged by time and by fitter. Send the cabinet models, any old unit dismantling and the approved arrival details. If a restriction affects how the fitter can unload or reach the room, mention it in the request. Ask separately about collection or delivery if the retailer still holds any pieces.
See assembly prices and IKEA furniture assembly. If you need the cartons brought to the property, ask about collection and delivery.
Set up the working area away from the shared route
Decide where the panels can be laid out. Remove equipment and loose cables before we arrive and keep the stair or hall clear. If the cabinet is built in a nearby room, check the width of the finished unit against the route into its intended position. Tell us which cartons have already reached the room.
Confirm the exact entrance number, floor and route. Ask whether the building uses a side door for visitors or furniture. If the cabinet has a long top, check it against the turns and door clearances. Tell us where the retailer left the cartons and who can release them if stored elsewhere.
Give the approved unloading point, permitted times and parking for the visit. If there is a shop or business on the ground floor, ask which access route must stay clear. If packing material cannot wait in the building, agree where it should be left after the work. Keep shared exits free of boxes.
Prepare the Soho room, cables and access route
- Unplug and move equipment before the appointment.
- Measure the cabinet with its drawers or doors open.
- Check the carton route and approved loading arrangements.
- Mark any sockets and cables that need to stay reachable.
| Send with the enquiry | Why we ask |
|---|---|
| Media unit model | Check shelf and cable opening arrangements |
| Room sketch | Shows door swings, sockets and movement space |
| Building entrance | Confirms the route and where the longest carton is |
Make sure the storage opens in the finished layout
Show the opening direction on a sketch, including room doors and nearby furniture. A drop-down door needs room in front and a tall cabinet beside a skirting return may need a gap. If there is a choice of shelf height, mark what needs to fit inside and check the equipment’s ventilation requirements.
Tell us if you need an old cabinet taken apart first and where its parts should go. Remove devices, contents and cables. Label fittings to be reused and store them separately. If the furniture has been partly assembled, send a photo of the current state and details of any parts you think are missing.
Check the height and depth of components planned for open shelves. Allow space behind them to connect leads according to their instructions. If you want a tall cabinet in the same visit, share any wall restraint requirements. Check permission for drilling and tell us about known services in the wall.
If you intend to use a remote control with equipment inside the cabinet, check how the doors affect its signal and decide which shelf is practical. A solid door may change how you use the equipment. Share any manufacturer ventilation or clearance requirements before agreeing a shelf height.
Before you book in Soho
Can you assemble a media cabinet in a narrow Soho room?
Send the dimensions, room photo and cabinet model. We can discuss the working area and whether the completed unit can be moved into position.
Can you connect the television when assembling my Soho cabinet?
Let us know what you need when booking. Assembly covers the furniture, and equipment connection or wall mounting needs separate discussion.
Can I keep equipment running in the room during assembly?
Clear and disconnect any equipment on or beside the furniture. If something elsewhere must stay in use, tell us what access needs to remain open.
Can you build a Soho cabinet without its cable opening fitted?
Send the model and instructions. We can discuss the manufacturer’s intended layout and which pieces are necessary before the cabinet is used.
