A Hidden Bar Behind the Books: The TommaSlide 300 in Action

Brabners, an independent law firm in Liverpool, wanted to add sophistication and intrigue to their office refurbishment with a hidden bar, concealed behind a bespoke bookcase. CPA Joinery was tasked with bringing the idea to life and worked with Quest to find the right sliding solution. The TommaSlide 300 was identified as the perfect fit, offering the strength, precision, and reliability needed for such a feature.

The bookcase was heavily loaded with books and decorative items, making weight and durability a critical factor. The primary challenge was needing a sliding system to run smoothly and quietly, blending seamlessly into a professional office environment while standing up to frequent use.

The TommaSlide 300, with its impressive 300kg load capacity, delivered the performance required. The track was recessed into the ceiling and paired with a discreet bottom guide, creating a clean, minimalist finish. The result was a robust, smooth-running system that combined practicality with refined design helping turn a vision into reality.

• Smooth & Silent Operation: Designed to handle loads up to 300kg, the TommaSlide 300 ensures effortless, quiet movement, even under frequent use, delivering consistent performance with a refined finish.
• High Load Capacity: The system supports the fully loaded bookcase, whilst ensuring durability and safety in an commercial setting.
• Discreet Design: Minimal visible hardware and concealed tracks maintain the luxurious aesthetic of the business offices.
• Efficient Space Use: By combining storage and a concealed bar, the design maximises floor space in the office building.

The TommaSlide 300 brought the concept to life, seamlessly integrating sliding bookcases that unveil a hidden bar. This feature not only adds a touch of intrigue but also creates a sophisticated, welcoming space for client meetings. Thereby enhancing both the functionality and charm of the office.
