A loft boarding job doesn’t have to stop at the floor.
LoftZone’s shelving and wardrobe range gives you an easy way to turn a boarded loft into a proper storage room. For your customers, that means a tidier home. For you, that means a bigger invoice from the same job.
Here’s what the range includes and why it’s worth adding to your quotes.
Loft Shelving
LoftZone shelving is built to sit alongside our raised loft flooring systems.
That’s the key difference. Standard shelving units often compress the insulation underneath them, which reduces the very thing your customer is paying for. LoftZone shelving keeps the insulation intact, so the loft stays warm and the storage stays solid.
Customers get organised, accessible storage. Boxes, decorations, suitcases and seasonal items all have a proper place, instead of being stacked wherever there’s room.
The range includes:
- 375mm Shelf-Beam, for lighter storage and narrower spaces
- 750mm Shelf-Beam, for deeper shelving runs
- 750mm Steel TrussShelf, for heavier loads and larger lofts

Choosing Between Shelf-Beam and Steel TrussShelf
Not every loft calls for the same shelving setup. Here’s how to pick the right one on site.
Shelf-Beam suits:
- Lighter loads, such as decorations, bedding and clothes storage
- Narrower loft spaces where a slimmer profile matters
- Jobs where the customer wants shelving across several bays
Steel TrussShelf suits:
- Heavier loads, such as tools, luggage or bulk storage
- Larger lofts with more open floor space
- Jobs where the customer wants fewer, sturdier shelf runs rather than several lighter ones
Knowing the difference means you can recommend the right product on the spot, rather than defaulting to one option for every job.
Loft Wardrobes
A LoftZone wardrobe turns an unused corner of the loft into proper hanging storage.
They’re a good fit for seasonal clothing, coats, suit bags and anything else that doesn’t need daily access but still needs to be kept flat and dust free. Instead of clothes going straight onto the boards or into loose boxes, they get a proper home.
The finish looks clean and built in, rather than bolted on. That matters to customers. A loft that looks finished and considered adds more perceived value to the home than one that’s just boarded and left bare.
Why Installers Love Them
- Bigger job value. Shelving and wardrobes are a simple upsell on a job you’re already quoting alongside StoreFloor or StoreFloor Compact.
- Fast to fit. Both ranges are designed for quick, straightforward installation, so you’re not adding hours to the job.
- Built to work together. Shelving and wardrobes sit alongside LoftZone flooring without a fight over space or fixings.
- More useful loft space for the customer. They get a floor, storage, and a wardrobe, not just boards underfoot.
How to Bring It Up on the Job
Most customers won’t ask about shelving or wardrobes directly. You need to raise it.
Try this approach:
- Ask what they plan to store in the loft before you quote the job. This opens the door naturally.
- Mention shelving and wardrobes as part of the standard quote, not as an optional extra bolted on at the end.
- Show, don’t just tell. A quick photo of a finished loft with shelving and a wardrobe fitted does more than any description.
- Price it as a package. A combined quote for flooring, shelving and a wardrobe reads as one job, not three separate decisions for the customer to weigh up.
What This Means for Your Margins
Every loft boarding job has a fixed cost in time and site visits. Adding shelving or a wardrobe to that same visit means more revenue without more overheads.
A customer who says yes to shelving and a wardrobe on top of flooring is paying for a finished room. You’re still on site for roughly the same amount of time.
Stock and Lead Times
Keep a small stock of 375mm Shelf-Beam units on the van for straightforward jobs. This lets you fit and finish in one visit when a customer says yes on the day.
For Steel TrussShelf and wardrobe units, check lead times with our team before quoting a fixed installation date. This avoids promising a customer a finish date you can’t hit.
Add It to Every Loft Boarding Quote
When you’re pricing a loft boarding job, shelving and wardrobes are worth mentioning before the customer even asks.
Most people boarding their loft are trying to solve a storage problem. Flooring alone gets them halfway there. Shelving and wardrobes finish the job, and they give you a bigger number on the invoice for very little extra time on site.
