Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Great product

Great product, I ordered the 1.2m length flat strips in antique brass for a job, unfortunately that finish doesn’t seem to be available in the longer 1.8m length strips so I have had to order extra and so make up the total height of the shelving. Resulting in a join line. Not a problem for most but can be annoying for those who like the little details.
There also is no shelf studs available in antique brass so have had to order a different finish. Hence the 4 star not 5

Regardless of this they are great quality and look great. Delivery was quick and well packaged, will definitely use them again.

Quick enquiry response

Quick, helpful response on the customer service line when my order seemed a little slow - turned out it was because SDS were waiting for their supplier to send them my items. Shortly afterwards my order was delivered - happy customer.

Best ironmongery

Am a regular registered client with SDS.
Superb ironmongery, for all my bespoke furniture construction.
A vast range of door knobs and handles.
Not forgetting mechanical fittings like heavy duty drawer runners and door closers.
Client may choose items from their superb Web site and if not in stock, will have within days. Brilliant

The handles were great

The handles were great, but there was a delay in them coming into stock, after I'd paid for them, so they didn't arrive for several weeks

Reply from SDS London Ltd

Hi Simon,

Thanks for your recent review. At the time of ordering we had 4no of these handles in stock at the time.
As you ordered 6no, we had these ordered from the supplier.
The order was placed by yourself on 17th January and was despatched for delivery on the 26th January.

Apologies for the delay.

Kind regards,
Samantha Thatcher

Good quality but excessive p&p

Good descriptive website and quality fittings. The only reason it's not 5 stars is the EXCESSIVE postage and packaging cost. I spent less than £2 on 6 tiny brackets and over £8 on p& p.

Hi Mr Daykin,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us review.

This has been flagged to our website team and i can now confirm that there is now a delivery method for smaller packages like this available.

It is a 2-3 day lead time with Royal Mail which costs £4+VAT.

Feedback like this allows us to improve in all aspects and areas.

Should you require anything else from us, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Kind regards,
