Mumsnet Towers

Detail­ing needed to be cheap, light­weight, demount­able and sus­tain­able. Home grown Cedar, which will weather a soft sil­ver over time, was a good option.
As the poly­car­bon­ate is self fin­ished on one edge, no frame was needed on the lead­ing edge of the door, we just cut a groove to receive it into the cedar.
We love the clever com­po­nents Item makes for pack­ag­ing and have used one of their heav­ier duty han­dles for the slid­ing door.

We achieved a clean floor to ceil­ing fin­ish with the help of Triple­dot, a con­trac­tor whose fine car­pen­try skills allowed them to pro­file tim­bers to ceil­ing and floor.
