According to new Ipsos MORI research by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) consumers are looking for more storage to accommodate for the lack of space across their entire home. IronmongeryDirect understands that space is often at a premium and can provide the latest in storage options to help create a neat and tidy look.

"We have seen a strong trend towards 'improve rather than move.' Instead of moving, our customers are doing extension or conversion work." comments Wayne Lysaght-Mason, Managing Director of, IronmongeryDirect, The UK’s largest online and mail order trade supplier of ironmongery products. "One popular option to free up space has always been sliding doors which are ideal for built-in wardrobes in the bedroom. The trend for pocket doors works well for open plan homes where they are used in living areas, concealing home entertainment system, toys and home office equipment."

Another cost effective solution for storage concerns can be found in the form of simple yet robust metal shelving, Aspect. Customers can choose from a variety of options from this practical and durable shelving range which includes Twin Slot Shelving, Single Slot Shelving and Book Ends.
