Radiator cover ?

Am looking to buy a radiator cover ( as my wife says my carpentry skills arent really up to making one).Only want a fairly simple white cover.

Its a 4ft radiator , have looked in homebase and B and Q but they dont seem to have much in store.

Could anybody recommend a good online shop or where abouts in Nottingham might be best ?

Thanks :money:

    Got mine off ebay. They messaged me for all dimensions including skirting, made it up and sent it flat pack - assembled in about 10 mins and fitted perfectly. Not sure of seller but you'll no doubt find if you search :)

    It's always best to get out of the mindset of thinking Been and Queued and Homebase as the be all and end all for DIY products.

    Instead, look up your local Screwfix and Toolstation where you'll find generally better value. If you're not familiar with these, think of them as an Argos for DIY! In other words, there's a catalogue and a desk. You can't browse before you buy so you have to know what you want.

    I've just done a quick search for you and screwfix sell some:

  • I've got a screwfix one. They are a bit more pricey than some others such as the ones on Ebay but they are quite substantial and look really good.
