Stallrisers in Devon

The panelled base below the display glass, where the knocks actually land.

Devon is a county of cob and stone cottages, Georgian terraces in the cities and steep coastal conversions. That is exactly the kind of building stock a stallriser has to be drawn around, so we allow for it at survey stage rather than on fitting day — walls get checked for wind and plumb, floors for level, and the setting-out is taken from the worst reading, not the best.

How we approach it

Walls in Devon are rarely square and floors are rarely level. A stallriser that is built in a workshop to a nominal size will show every millimetre of that. We survey first, scribe on site, and finish so the joint line disappears.

How we build it

Timber is chosen for the room it is going into. Painted work is built in tulipwood and moisture-resistant MDF because they hold a crisp arris and take a sprayed finish without grain rise. Where the grain is meant to be seen we use European oak, walnut or ash, with veneers laid so the figure runs continuously across a set of doors.

Finish and materials

Every finished job gets a short handover: what the surface is, how to clean it, and how to adjust a hinge if a door drops after the heating has been on for a season. Adjustment is normal in timber and takes about two minutes once you know which screw to turn.

What happens next

Four steps, no surprises

Survey

A joiner visits, measures the opening, checks for level and plumb, and talks through how you want to use the space.

Drawings & quote

You get a setting-out drawing and a fixed written price. Nothing is ordered until you have approved both.

Workshop

Parts are machined, assembled and finished under cover while the site carries on with other trades.

Fit & handover

We fit, scribe, adjust and touch in, then walk you through care and adjustment before we leave.

Straight answers

Stallrisers in Devon — common questions

How tall should it be?

Usually 450 to 750mm. Too low and the glass takes the damage; too high and the display disappears from view. On a parade we generally match the neighbours so the run reads evenly.

Can a stallriser be repaired in sections?

Yes, and it usually is. The panel nearest the door goes first. We replace panels within the existing frame where the frame is sound.

Can you match a fielded panel profile?

Yes, from a gauge taken off the original. Fielded, flat and bolection panels all read differently and it is obvious when the wrong one is used.

How is it finished?

All faces sealed, including the back and the bottom edge, before it goes near the wall. The bottom edge is the one everyone forgets and the one that fails.

How do I pay, and when?

A deposit at order to cover materials, a stage payment when the work leaves the workshop, and the balance on completion after you have inspected the fit. Everything is written into the quotation before you commit.
