Common questions
Home Libraries & Bookcases questions we hear most
- Do long shelves sag?
- Not when they're specified correctly — we set vertical spacing by span and load, and offer 1-inch shelving for long runs.
- Can you build around a window or radiator?
- Yes. We measure and notch around windows, radiators, outlets and baseboard.

Reviews
What Central Jersey homeowners say
Working with Paul Singh was great from start to finish. He answered every question himself, and the final price came in almost $4,000 under the national brands for the same layout.
The mobile showroom sold us. Seeing the actual finishes and hardware in our own lighting made the decision easy — no guessing from a tiny catalog photo.
