Versatile vintage storage unit - £50


BigED

Recommended Posts

For sale, a late-20th century pigeon hole storage unit.  

Not sure of the age but possibly the 1980s. This unit has had a life before us and gathered some scuffs and scratches but it is in good condition. It has very sturdy wooden shelves, with veneered edges, and a hardboard backing panel.  It is a bespoke, one-off  item, not IKEA or similar.

The 24 compartments offer lots of practical storage space perfect for keeping a workshop, shed or garage well-organised. We’ve been using it as storage for wood-working tools and DIY bits and pieces - it has served us very well.

It could also be used as a display unit. The unit is great as it is but it would also scrub up well with a little tlc and paint. 

Take note, the compartments aren’t quite large enough for vinyl but they are perfectly-sized for many books, vases, plants, toys, hobby/craft equipment, tools and so on. 

Dimensions

Width: 122cm (6 ft) 

Height: 192cm (6 ft 3.5 ins) including base plinth

Depth: 30.2cm (just over 1 ft)

Internal dimensions of individual bays: 28.9cm square (just under 11.5 ins square)

Sadly, we can’t deliver so you will need a van (please make sure of the dimensions if you are hiring one). It is heavy but my girlfriend and I managed to move it successfully out of a hire van and into our ground floor workshop room with the help of a dolly (which you are welcome to use helping to move it into your vehicle). Useful though it is, we have to sell as we’re hoping to start some building works in the near future and need to clear the room.

Collection from Forest Hill, SE23 2ET.

Price: £50

This wooden storage unit is available.

Suitable for home, shop, workshop or garage.

If you are interested please check the measurements first - make sure you can get the item into the van you will be using, and make sure you will be able to get it into your home and manoeuvre it into the right room and place.  It's a big item, bespoke-made and not flat pack.

Price £50, collection only from Forest, Hill SE23 2ET.  You will need a van and two people to move it.  I can help at this end.  Evenings and weekends preferred but can be flexible.

    • Nope that concern predates the Jerk festival.  But I am talking about when I first moved to SE London and some locals complained that the nice music was too loud. Separately some people are still moaning about the Jerk festival,  Felt some comments were (casual) racist, but that is a different subject matter. That day was great,  A victim of its own success. A kin to Fatboy Slim playing a free festival on Brighton beach, tens of thousands went but it took a long long time to clean up.

    • That’s not how life works jazzer if you accuse anyone of anything you have to be able to back it up  besides. I thought you were “done with me”. Yet here you sir plucking accusations out of the air but without any backbone or evidence 
    • always want things want your way, always try to play high and mighty, always try and shut people down who question you or disagree with you, BORING.
