Elegant Patinated Brass Dry Riser Cabinet

We designed and fabricated this elegant bespoke dry riser cabinet for the iconic YSL building on Grafton Street, London.

Crafted from 3mm gilded brass, the cabinet is fully welded to create a robust, seamless enclosure. The front panel opens smoothly on hinges and is secured with a discreet lock.The brass has been expertly patinated using Dekacolor 80 MS to achieve a rich, uniform aged finish that complements the building’s luxury aesthetic. A final protective layer of Teroson WX 990 wax enhances durability while adding a subtle, sophisticated sheen.YSL chose brass instead of the standard red steel cabinet to transform a functional fire safety element into a refined architectural feature that blends seamlessly with the building’s high-end design.

Finished with a prominent red “Dry Riser Inlet” sign, this cabinet delivers essential fire protection while maintaining the elegant visual standards expected of a flagship luxury location on Grafton Street.
