Ladderax Modular Bedroom / Wardrobe Unit by Staples – 2 Bays

Out of stock

This rare and scarcely seen mid century Ladderax modular bedroom unit features a wardrobe with pull out hanging rail, tie bar and five interior shelves providing lots of useful storage. There’s a three drawer lockable chest of drawers, three shelves, ten support rods and 4 anti-tip hooks to secure the individual units to the support ladders.

The ladder-like supports are made of steel, which serve as the backbone of the unit.  These ladders have rungs spaced at regular intervals, allowing for the shelves and units to be positioned at different levels based on individual needs and preferences.

The Ladderax system can be easily adapted and expanded as storage needs evolve over time. Users have the flexibility to add or remove components, adjust shelf heights, and create a personalised layout that suits their specific requirements.

Complete Ladderax unit consists of

1 x Double teak wardrobe
1 x Three drawer unit
3 x Standard shelves
3 x Black metal support ladders
10 x Metal hook support rods
4 x Anti-tip hooks
2 x keys

Ladderax is a renowned modular shelving system that offers functional storage, versatility, and a distinct mid-century modern aesthetic.

In excellent refinished vintage condition.

Staples

Ladderax was a self-assembly, modular storage solution that perfectly captured the spirit of mid-century modern living. It featured teak-veneered cabinets, drawers, and shelves supported by slim steel ladders, which gave the system both its name and distinctive look. Affordable, lightweight, and endlessly adaptable, Ladderax allowed users to customise configurations to suit their homes, making it a stylish yet practical alternative to expensive Scandinavian imports of the time. The system quickly became a design icon of the 1960s and 70s, celebrated for its clean lines, flexibility, and modernist aesthetic. Although Staples eventually ceased operations in the 1980s, partly due to changing tastes and the growing popularity of flat-pack furniture from companies like IKEA, Ladderax remains one of the most recognisable examples of British mid-century furniture design. Today, original Ladderax systems are highly sought after by collectors and design enthusiasts, a testament to Staples’ enduring influence on modern interiors.
