• Could crosspost this across a whole bunch of threads, but this one seems appropriate enough for starters. Been trying to find something a bit (ok, a lot) more attractive than the attached for my AV related stuff but come up completely blank so far.

    Realised recently that everything other than the receiver (IR remote, but also useful to see the display) could be completely enclosed, exception being the PS5 cos of concerns over heat. Ideally I'd like to use more of the alcove's width rather than stack everything vertically.

    Problem is that standard cupboards don't tend to be deep enough (min 400mm for the amp) or have any provision for rear access or cabling, hi-fi units are mostly open, and TV units are all too wide (max 840mm).

    I did find this, which would be perfect if it was 40% wider and about 20% of the price. Any other suggestions would be much appreciated.

  • Not the best solution if you’re not confident hanging doors straight and the like, but for something simple you can get sheet materials cut to size online. Measure up and design your own flat-pack cabinet, plug the sizes of each component into the website, then it all gets delivered in about a week perfectly square and true. Finish it how you like then screw it all together with corner blocks.

    I think I used these
