RNI-0005 Wall Shelf with Lift-Up Compartment

No lock / Black

A floating shelf is the last thing anyone expects to open. It reads as a single block of board fixed to the wall, and that is all it reads as.

RNI-0005 is a box with a lid. The top of the shelf lifts on two cabinet hinges and rests against the wall while it is open; underneath is a compartment the full width and depth of the shelf. Closed, the joint between lid and box is one more edge line on a solid volume — no handle, no keyhole, no gap. Present the RFID card or keychain and the lid releases.

It holds documents, a passport, cash, jewellery, a watch, cards. The lid is the top surface, so anything standing on the shelf has to be moved before you open it. If you want to keep things on top and still reach the compartment, RNI-0004 opens from underneath instead.

Melamine-faced board, in any decor, colour or texture the board manufacturer offers. All visible edges carry edgebanding — not the foil used on flat-pack furniture, which chips at the corner within a year and shows the core underneath.

Made to order in Croatia. Specify the decor when you order.

Material & durability
Melamine-faced chipboard

The panel is standard melamine-faced chipboard — the same board used across European cabinet manufacturing, in whatever decor, colour and texture the board maker offers. It is stable, it is dimensionally consistent, and it takes hardware reliably. It is not the interesting part of this piece and it is not sold as though it were.

All visible edges are edgebanded. That is the difference between furniture and flat-pack: a raw chipboard edge absorbs moisture, chips at the corner and shows the core. An edgebanded one does none of those things.

The hardware

This is where the money goes. Concealed hinges and soft-close runners throughout, so nothing slams and nothing has to be caught on the way down. One shelf uses a gas strut: the front lifts under its own control, holds wherever you leave it, and closes without dropping.

The compartment closes flush. From the front there is no handle, no pull, no visible catch and no gap that reads differently from any other line on the piece.

Choice of lock

Every piece is supplied with either a magnetic lock or an RFID lock, specified when you order.

The magnetic lock opens with a key magnet held against the front. There is nothing to power, nothing to fail and no electronics — the magnet lives on a keyring or on the back of a nearby object.

The RFID lock opens with a card or fob presented to the front. It suits anyone who would rather not carry a magnet, and allows more than one person to have access.

Both are concealed behind the front. Neither is visible from outside the piece.
Care & cleaning
Routine cleaning

Wipe with a soft cloth, warm water and a mild detergent, then dry. Melamine is a closed surface — nothing soaks in, and it does not need polish, oil or wax. Wipe spills rather than leaving them to dry.

Do not use

Abrasive pads, scouring powders, solvents or bleach. These dull the melamine and the change is permanent. Steam cleaners and saturated cloths force moisture into the joints, which is the one thing chipboard does not tolerate.

Edges and joints

Edgebanded edges are sealed, but standing water at a joint will eventually find its way in. Dry any water that collects along a front or a top edge rather than leaving it.

Hardware

Soft-close runners and hinges are set at the factory and need no adjustment. If a front stops closing flush, the hinge has usually shifted rather than failed — the adjustment screws are visible when the front is open. The gas strut is a sealed unit and cannot be serviced; if it stops holding, it is replaced.

Locks

The magnetic lock has no moving electronics and needs nothing. Keep the key magnet away from cards, drives and anything else magnetically sensitive. The RFID lock is battery-powered — replace the battery when the indicator changes, and keep a spare card somewhere other than inside the compartment.

FAQ
  1. How does it open?
    Present the RFID card or keychain and the lid releases. Lift it and it rests open against the wall on two cabinet hinges. Lower it to close and it locks again.
  2. Can someone find it?
    Closed, the joint between the lid and the box reads as one more edge line on a solid floating shelf. There is no handle, no keyhole and no gap. Someone who knows to look will find it — this is concealment, not a safe. It is not rated to resist a determined attempt with tools, and nothing at this price is.
  3. What fits inside?
    Documents, a passport, cash, jewellery, a watch, cards. The compartment runs the full width and depth of the shelf, so it suits flat items laid side by side.
  4. Can I keep things on top?
    Yes, but the top is the lid, so anything on it has to be moved before you open the compartment. If you want to keep things on the shelf and still reach the compartment, RNI-0004 opens from underneath instead.
  5. How high should I mount it?
    Leave clear wall space above the shelf at least equal to its depth, so the lid can open fully. Mount it where you can look into the compartment comfortably — usually at or below chest height.
  6. What happens if the lock loses power?
    The RFID lock is battery-powered. If the battery runs out, the compartment stays closed until it is replaced. Keep a spare card somewhere other than inside the compartment, and contact us before attempting to force it — forcing damages the lid and the hinge mounting.
  7. Can I choose the colour?
    Yes. Any decor, colour or texture the board manufacturer offers. Send the decor reference when you order, or tell us what you are matching and we will send options.
  8. Can I get it in another size?
    Yes. The cut list is generated from the same drawing, so length, depth and height are parameters rather than a redesign. Quoted on request.
