Where to get stylish TV cabinet?

    I am looking for a hide-away TV cabinet, I have looked at a few but they were either poor quality or didn't have enough space for our Hi-fi seperates.
    The type I am looking for is one where there is two front doors and they pull out/fold away while the TV is in use, when not in use the doors hide the screen.
    The Hi-fi has 4 units none huge but I would like to have these fairly accessible, ie not having to get down on your hands and knees to change a disc.
    I know lots of people reading this forum are fitting out houses so you may have seen something that I haven't.
    I would prefer a dark finish mahogony or similar.
    Thanks in advance

    cj I could make you that if you want! Would you like it made from veneered mdf or solid timber? Any ideas of what you would like for an internal layout?

    Joe any idea how you like the inside of the unit laid out? A rough sketch would do the trick!

    I'll do up a 'spec' in the next few days, I want to fit a pc in too, so I'll need to think about the layout.

    Can you PM me your details?

    btw, the finish we would like is gloss white, like a piano finish!

    Also, I assume you are in galway, pity, as I would prefer a built in unit, but I guess that would mean a couple of trips and we are on a budget here?!
