HENDON / A CLEAR CHANGEOVER FROM OLD TO NEW
Replacement furniture assembly in Hendon
The old cabinet and the new build are separate parts of the plan.
A replacement wardrobe cannot be assembled where the existing one still stands. Explain what needs to happen first in your Hendon room, and list the new furniture without assuming removal or dismantling is included.
- Label photographs of old and new items distinctly.
- Keep new delivery cartons intact and identifiable.
- Explain when the assembly floor will become available.
- Request carrying, dismantling and disposal explicitly.

CLARIFY THE BEFORE AND AFTER RESPONSIBILITIES
Replacement furniture builds for
Hendon property users
Show the planned arrangement and new restraint instructions. Do not assume earlier wall fixings suit the replacement, or that building the new furniture includes dealing with everything currently in its place.
Landlords
For a furnishing changeover, separate the replacement model list from outgoing furniture tasks. Provide an access contact and decisions on relevant new restraints.
Tenants
Check relevant permission for changed wall attachments and keep old landlord furniture distinct from your purchases. Existing fixings do not remove the need to follow the new product’s instructions.
SEPARATE CHANGEOVER TASKS FROM THE NEW BUILD
Preparing a Hendon replacement-furniture enquiry
Identify the existing item in photographs and explain when the work area will be clear, while keeping the new cartons labelled.
Use the new model
as the assembly reference.
A replacement of similar size can have different doors, interior packs or mechanisms. Supply the actual purchased specification and instructions.
MODEL · QUANTITY · INSTRUCTIONSCheck the new order
without mixing old parts.
Compare delivery labels with the expected cartons and accessory packs. Report missing components or packaging damage before the planned work.
PACKAGE COUNT · DELIVERY COMPLETEShow the future position
and the current obstacles.
Include available floor, access route and entry arrangements. State the package location and any carrying, moving or dismantling needed to make the room ready.
FINAL POSITION · SPACE · ACCESSIDENTIFY THE NEW FURNITURE CLEARLY
What is replacing the existing pieces?
Select a category and provide the replacement model. Moving, dismantling or disposing of the old furniture should be described separately from constructing the new product.
BEDROOM / STORAGE
Wardrobes
Supply the new wardrobe configuration, interior packs and restraint instructions. A previous cabinet in the same position does not prove the replacement will fit or use the same fixings.
Send the replacement wardrobe reference ↗Wardrobes
Include door type and complete package counts for the new wardrobe. Show its proposed wall after the old unit leaves, with required anchoring assessed afresh.
BEDROOM / FRAME & MECHANISMSBeds
Give the new frame model and any storage mechanism. Explain separately whether the old bed needs dismantling or moving before the replacement build.
BEDROOM / SMALL FURNITUREBedside units
List replacement bedside quantities and drawer layouts. Keep old hardware apart from the new labelled fitting packs.
STORAGE / RUNNERS & ALIGNMENTChest of drawers
Send the chest model, drawer count and anti-tip information. State whether the old chest still occupies the floor needed for construction.
DINING / LIVING SPACETables
Identify the new table and any extension features. Moving or disposing of the previous dining set is not implied by a table assembly enquiry.
HOME OFFICE / WORKSPACEDesks
Provide the replacement desk’s pedestals and supplied cable components. Explain how the old workstation will be cleared and show the new chair position.
DINING / HOME OFFICEChairs
Record each new chair model and quantity. Old seating removal and adjustable office-chair construction are separate details to identify.
LIVING ROOM / MODULAR STORAGEStorage units
List new storage modules and their connecting arrangements. Manufacturer restraint requirements should be assessed for the replacement design, not copied from the removed units.
SUITABLE FREESTANDING FURNITUREFreestanding shelving
Provide model and anti-tip details for new freestanding shelves. Wall-mounted replacements or built-in alterations require their own assessment beyond flat-pack assembly.
MORE THAN ONE ROOMMulti-item projects
Separate the new-item list from old-furniture tasks. Give models, quantities, cartons and rooms for the builds, then explicitly describe any additional changeover work.
HENDON / ROOM REFRESH PREPARATION
Clarify the work before the first new carton opens
If the old unit is still in place, explain how its space will be cleared. Include its details when asking about help, rather than letting dismantling become an unexpected first task.
Show the new arrangement and manufacturer’s restraint requirements for your Hendon room. Existing holes or brackets must not be presumed suitable for the replacement furniture without assessment.
Keep the old fittings separateHardware retained from the previous cabinet should not be mixed into the new product’s component set.

THE NEW FRAME NEEDS ROOM AFTER THE OLD ONE LEAVES
Plan construction space, not just replacement dimensions
Even when two cabinets have similar footprints, the new model may need different panel handling or clearance. The space occupied by the old item is not automatically enough for the entire build.
Check the manufacturer’s sequence against the room’s clear floor and height. Include door movement, neighbouring furniture and any objects that must remain during the changeover.
Large replacements normally should be built in their final room where suitable. Dismantling old furniture, moving completed units or altering new panels are separate requirements that must be agreed.

SIMILAR REPLACEMENTS CAN HAVE DIFFERENT COMPONENTS
Use the new specification, not the old cabinet as a guide.
Doors, interior fittings and mechanisms may change even where the replacement occupies nearly the same room position.
| Furniture type | New-product features to identify | Details to send with the enquiry |
|---|---|---|
| Wardrobe | Changed doors, internal accessories and restraint provisions | New wardrobe model with complete package list |
| Bed | Different base construction and storage mechanism | Replacement frame reference and cleared-room plan |
| Desk | Pedestal layout and supplied cable components | New desk model with final seating position |
| Storage | Module links, drawer systems and shelf configurations | Replacement unit arrangement and fresh restraint assessment details |
KEEP THE OLD-ITEM TASKS OUT OF ASSUMPTIONS
Hendon furniture assembly guide prices
Alesta’s guide bands relate to an assessed furniture build. The actual quote needs the replacement models and access, with moving, dismantling or disposal of old pieces stated as separate requirements.
Starting guide for an uncomplicated small new item.
Typical range for beds, desks and medium storage builds.
Large wardrobes or multi-item projects start at this guide.
| Service scope | Price guide | Information shaping the agreed work |
|---|---|---|
| Small furniture item | From £30 | The new small product and its supplied components |
| Bed, desk or medium storage | Typically £60–£150 | Replacement mechanisms, drawers and room access |
| Large wardrobe or multi-item project | From £300 | New configurations, combined quantities and agreed restraints |
What should the changeover quote request distinguish?
- Every new model and quantity to be assembled
- New-package totals and construction requirements
- Doors, drawers and mechanisms in the replacement
- Clearance work and the route to the room
- New restraint requirements where suitable and agreed
Furniture purchase, delivery, old-item moving, dismantling and disposal are not automatically part of new assembly. Packaging removal also needs agreement; explain each requirement before confirming the scope.
CHANGEOVER QUESTIONS
Agree what happens before assembly.
- What are the Hendon assembly guide bands?
- Small furniture starts from £30; beds/desks/medium storage are typically £60–£150; large wardrobes or multi-item work starts from £300. Actual model, access and agreed scope determine the quote.
- Can replacement furniture of different kinds be assembled?
- Suitable beds, wardrobes, tables, desks, chairs, bedside units, chests and freestanding storage can be specified by model.
- Should old and new fittings be sorted together?
- Keep new labelled packs intact and separate; verify the new delivery is complete.
- Can several replacement pieces share a booking?
- Yes, with every new model and quantity listed and any old-item work separately identified.
- Can the new wardrobe be built elsewhere while the old one stays?
- Do not assume the finished route will work; normally prepare its final room for construction.
- What if the replacement has a missing part?
- Identify the correct component; finishing the item may require a manufacturer replacement.
- Can the previous cabinet’s wall holes simply be reused?
- Not by assumption. Check instructions, wall/fixings, concealed services and permission before suitable agreed restraint work.
- Is the old cabinet footprint enough work space?
- The new model may need additional protected floor or height for its construction sequence.
- Are old furniture and packaging taken away automatically?
- No. Disposal and packaging removal must be expressly agreed.
THE REPLACEMENT NEEDS ITS OWN FINISHING CHECKS
Old settings do not establish
the new furniture’s alignment.
A replacement cabinet must be checked on its own frame geometry. Use its designed fittings to adjust fronts and runners instead of trying to reproduce the previous item’s setup.
Doors + hinges
Set new door fronts through the hinge adjustments supplied with the product.
Drawers + runners
Confirm the replacement runners engage and allow normal drawer travel.
Start with the new structure’s geometry.
Correct fittings and adjustable supports where provided help establish the replacement frame. Normal-use checks include its mechanisms without overlooking any changed safety requirement.
WALL FIXING / ANTI-TIP
Reassess the restraint
for the replacement product.
The old cabinet’s fixing holes or bracket may not suit the new model. Follow its manufacturer’s directions and assess the actual wall and fixing arrangement before agreeing anchoring.
- Identify the new product’s anti-tip provisions.
- Assess wall construction and appropriate replacement fixings.
- Consider concealed services before any drilling or fixing position is used.
- Establish permission where needed for the replacement’s wall attachment.
Wall work must be suitable and agreed; previous restraint is not automatic proof of suitability. A new unit requiring anchoring must not be used while that mandatory requirement remains unmet.
A missing new component
needs the correct manufacturer part.
Identify damage or shortages against the replacement product’s instructions. A correct manufacturer component may be required before the affected build is complete.
Do not conceal a shortage with an old screw that looks similar. Keep new model and package references available so the proper fitting can be traced.
THE NEW FURNITURE’S ASSEMBLY SEQUENCE
New order checked. Replacement built. Requirements reviewed.
The illustrations concern assembly stages, not an included removal or refurbishment service.
Identify the replacement packages.
Keep the new order’s labels distinct from old components.
Follow the new model’s sequence.
Organise supplied hardware and support panels during construction.
Review the replacement in position.
Check alignment, operation and its own safety requirements.
Illustrative scenes, not a customer’s before-and-after replacement project or evidence of included dismantling.

Old-item tasks
and new-product assembly.
These Hendon questions help define what happens before the replacement build and what belongs to the new furniture’s own requirements.
What should I send if old furniture still occupies the room?
Photograph and identify the existing item separately from the replacement. Give the new model and explain when the area will be clear, explicitly requesting any moving or dismantling help you need considered.
Does preparing for replacement assembly include clearing the old unit?
That task must be agreed separately if required. The new build needs suitable protected floor and access, which may extend beyond the old item’s footprint. Do not assume old-furniture disposal accompanies the replacement assembly.
How is Hendon replacement-furniture assembly priced?
The new models, access and agreed scope determine the quotation. Guides are small items from £30, beds/desks/medium storage typically £60–£150, and large wardrobes or multi-item work from £300. Old-item tasks need separate specification.
What should I check in the replacement wardrobe delivery?
Account for the new carcase, doors, interiors and hardware against its own package list. Retain labels and report missing or damaged cartons rather than assuming old components can complete the replacement.
Can the replacement wardrobe be built in the hall while the old one stays?
Do not assume the finished cabinet can enter its intended room. Normally the destination should be prepared for construction, with enough clearance for the new manufacturer’s sequence.
Does replacing a basic bed with storage change the assembly?
Yes. Drawers or lifting mechanisms add components and normal-use checks. Provide the actual new base model and separately explain what happens to the old frame before the build.
Should I keep old screws with the new furniture fittings?
Keep them separate. Leave new packages intact and identifiable while checking delivery completeness. Mixing old and new hardware can obscure the component specification and any genuine shortage.
Can the whole room’s replacement furniture be one project?
Yes, with all new models, quantities and package counts listed. Separate any moving, dismantling or disposal tasks for outgoing furniture so the combined assembly scope remains clear.
What access details matter for the Hendon changeover?
Describe entrance procedures, floor, stairs or lift restrictions and where new cartons wait. Identify old furniture blocking the route and request any further carrying or handling explicitly.
Can the replacement reuse the old wardrobe’s anchor holes?
Only after suitability is assessed, not by assumption. Follow new manufacturer requirements and check wall construction, appropriate fixings, concealed services and relevant permission before agreed work. Mandatory restraint must be met before use.
Can old hardware replace something missing from the new order?
Do not assume compatibility. Identify the required new component against its model and labels. The correct manufacturer replacement may be needed before the furniture can be completed.
GIVE THE CHANGEOVER A CLEAR SCOPE
Explain the old item, identify the new model and reserve the space.
Send your Hendon replacement details with any carrying, dismantling or disposal requirements stated separately.
