Working in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea often means careful planning around controlled parking, delivery slots and limited on-street space. Many SW5 properties have narrow passageways and steps, so we design frames and posts that can be carried in and installed without damage to walls or paving. Where boundaries are older, we check levels and fixings to avoid movement and rubbing. We also help ensure gate heights and visibility at driveways are sensible for the street.
