Install Two Shelves and a Hanging Rail in Utility Cupboard I am looking for a handyman to supply and install two basic shelves and one hanging rail inside a small utility cupboard. Cupboard dimensions (approximate): * Width: 144cm * Depth: 76cm * Height: 216cm * The cupboard has a sloping ceiling, so the shelves will need to be measured and cut to fit the available space. Work required: 1. Install two simple, sturdy shelves across the back of the cupboard, at the heights indicated by the red lines in the attached photograph. 2. Install one hanging rail/pole between the cupboard’s side walls, at the position indicated in the photograph. 3. Shelves should be securely fixed using simple timber battens or appropriate brackets. 4. Ensure the hanging rail is securely supported and suitable for hanging clothes. 5. Measure and cut all shelving to fit the cupboard, taking the sloping ceiling into account. Materials to be purchased: The handyman will need to arrange the purchase and collection of all necessary materials, including: * Two basic white melamine-faced chipboard or MDF shelves (approximately 18mm thick). * Timber battens or basic shelf brackets for supporting the shelves. * One basic chrome or white wardrobe hanging rail/pole. * Two rail end brackets/sockets and a central support bracket if required. * Appropriate screws, wall plugs and other fixings. Please measure the cupboard before purchasing the shelving to ensure everything fits correctly. Important: I am looking for a simple, functional and inexpensive installation. No bespoke joinery, decorative finishes, premium materials or unnecessary extras are required. Basic white shelving and a standard hanging rail are perfectly adequate. Please bring the necessary tools, arrange the purchase of materials and complete the installation. The attached photograph shows the intended shelf and hanging rail positions.

Hi, I’d be happy to help with this job. I’m experienced in general handyman work and can take care of the measuring, materials and installation. I’ll start by measuring the cupboard carefully, taking the sloping ceiling into account. I’ll then install secure timber battens or brackets, fit the two shelves and install the hanging rail with suitable supports. Alternatively, I can build the shelves myself to fit the available space rather than purchasing pre-made shelves, which may be a more practical and cost-effective option. I estimate the job will take approximately 3–4 hours, including preparation and installation, depending on the cupboard’s layout. I’ll make sure everything is securely fitted and ready to use.
