§ X — Care & Guarantee

Built to be kept,
not replaced.

A project is the start of a relationship measured in decades. Twenty-five years on the cabinetry, a lifetime on the joinery, and the original drawings in our file in perpetuity — so the room can be returned to, not redone.

The guarantee Held against your number
The cabinetry
25 years

Against any defect in material or workmanship. Carcasses, doors, drawers, finishes.

The joinery
A lifetime

Every hand-cut joint, for as long as the piece stands.

The hardware
To spec

Runners, hinges, and mechanisms to the manufacturer's specification, replaced from stock we keep.

In plain terms

Held against the project number, not a receipt. It transfers with the residence and is honored by the same workshop that built the piece — never subcontracted out.

Care, by material Less than you think
01

Solid timber

Hand-rubbed oil

Dust with a dry cloth; once a year, a thin coat of the hardwax oil we leave with you, buffed out.

02

Limed & wire-brushed

Lime-filled grain

Dust with the grain so the lime stays seated; never oil the limed face.

03

Unlacquered metal

A living finish

Leave it; a dry cloth is the only maintenance — the patina is the point.

04

Painted finishes

Eight coats, matte

A barely-damp microfiber cloth, then dry — no solvents, no abrasive pads.

05

Leather & stone

Vegetable-tanned · honed stone

Leather: a neutral cream once a year. Stone: blot, never wipe; re-seal honed surfaces every two to three years.

§ 03 · The return service

We keep the
drawings forever.

Every project's original drawings stay in our file in perpetuity. Tastes move; the joinery does not have to.

Arrange a return visit
§ 04
Provenance & longevity

The most sustainable closet is the one no one throws away. Solid timber, mechanically joined, built to be repaired — never replaced.

Often asked, on keeping

Does the guarantee transfer if we sell the apartment?

Yes — held against the residence, not the owner.

A drawer no longer runs smoothly. Is that covered?

A morning's visit, no charge within the cabinetry term.

Can you match a repair to a ten-year-old finish?

Yes — the finish formula is recorded against your number, and the repair is aged into the surrounding work.

What is genuinely not covered?

Flood, fire, and a finish deliberately altered by another hand.

A closet you will not have to think about.

Everything begins with a conversation.
