How to Choose Display Cabinets for a City Flat

Choosing a display cabinet for a city flat is mostly a question of space, access and flexibility. Flats tend to have open plan living areas, limited wall space between windows and doors, and a route from the street that may include narrow stairwells, tight corners and small lifts. The right cabinet needs to fit all of that while still giving you somewhere attractive to keep books, ceramics, glassware or collections. In this guide we walk through the decisions in a sensible order: measuring your room and the route into the building, choosing the right depth and height, and deciding between tall, low and wall mounted designs. We explain how a display cabinet can help zone an open plan space, how glass and lighter finishes affect a small room, and what renters should consider when wall fixings are restricted. We also cover lighting, noise and practical storage, and finish with a short FAQ answering common questions from flat dwellers....
