Professional playhouse accessories fitting - bells, letterboxes, flower boxes, shutters, and play equipment attached securely. Make the playhouse complete with all the extras that make it special.
Little Details, Big Imaginations
A playhouse is great. But the accessories make it a shop, a café, a castle, a home. Doorbell, letterbox, window boxes - the details that spark imagination and hours of play.
💡 Pro tip: Fit accessories at child height - they need to reach them to use them, and watching a 3-year-old stretch for a doorbell defeats the purpose.

🔧 DIY Tips
Fitting yourself? Here's what matters:
🔧 Tools you'll need
- Drill
- Screwdriver
- Tape measure
- Pencil
- Stainless steel screws
📐 Good fitting
- Hold in position and check height
- Mark screw positions
- Pre-drill pilot holes
- Use stainless steel screws (won't rust)
- Check edges are smooth
- Test accessories work
⚠️ Common DIY mistakes
- Accessories too high for children
- Screws too long (come through inside)
- Regular screws that rust
- Sharp edges left unsanded
💡 Pro trick: Use stainless steel screws even if the accessories come with regular ones - outdoor conditions mean regular screws rust and streak the wood.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.

Frequently Asked Questions
What accessories can you fit?
Bells, letterboxes, flower boxes, shutters, play telephones, doorsteps, hooks - anything that screws or bolts to your playhouse. We use appropriate fixings for outdoor conditions.
Will drilling damage the playhouse?
We use appropriate screws that won't split the wood and seal any holes to prevent water ingress. Properly fitted accessories last longer than clip-on versions.
Can you make custom additions?
Simple additions like extra hooks or a chalk board panel, yes. Full custom builds (adding windows, cutting doors) would need assessing separately.
What about solar lights?
Yes - we can mount solar lights and panels. They add magic to playhouse evenings without any wiring concerns.
