Radiator Covers


A radiator cover is an enclosure that fits over a radiator for decoration, safety, or extra functionality. The radiator is concealed by the radiator cover, meaning unsightly pipework is hidden from view and the risk of scalding is reduced. Many include a grille to make it easier for heat to escape. Made from materials like wood, MDF or metal, covers can even create additional storage in your home. A wide range of styles are available, including rustic, traditional and contemporary radiator covers.


With so many options – some purely decorative, others offering shelving, drawers, or even shoe storage – it’s fair to say there’s no one-size-fits-all radiator cover definition. All that matters is that you choose one that suits your specific circumstances.





There are many good reasons to invest in a radiator cover. Radiator cover benefits include improved safety, better aesthetics, noise reduction and additional storage space.


Radiator cabinets are one way of childproofing and pet-proofing your home. They act as a barrier between your child or pet and the surface of your radiator, reducing the risk of scalding. This makes them perfect for young families, as well as cat and dog-friendly homes. Radiator cover safety is paramount around children and pets, so make sure the cover is securely attached to the wall to prevent it from being pulled over.

Attractive


While designer radiators are growing in popularity, most standard radiators aren’t particularly attractive. Concealing them with a stylish radiator cover is a cheap but effective way of brightening up your space, whether you’re renovating on a budget, sprucing up a rental property or in need of a temporary fix. You can find white, grey, wood and black radiator covers in our collection.

Creates extra storage space


Radiators are a necessity in modern homes, but they do take up valuable wall space. Luckily, you can reclaim some of this with a radiator cover. All covers effectively create an extra shelf or surface that runs along the top of the radiator. However, radiator covers with storage are also available, ideal for compact living where space is limited. They can also serve as a replacement for bulkier freestanding furniture. For instance, a radiator cover with drawers can be a stylish and space-saving alternative to a console table or telephone table.

Noise reduction


It’s completely normal for radiators to make noise, gurgling with trapped air or popping as they heat up or cool down. Just because it’s normal, however, that doesn’t mean you want to hear it! A radiator cover helps to muffle these noises for a more peaceful home environment. Make sure to get persistent noises checked out – these may indicate that your radiators need bleeding or point to a more serious problem.

Types of Radiator Covers


Metal, MDF, and wooden radiator covers each have their own advantages and drawbacks. Below is a detailed comparison to help you choose the best option for you.


Metal radiator covers are highly durable with a sleek, modern look. They’re a great choice for contemporary homes where easy installation and performance are priorities. They’re highly heat-efficient, which is good news for your wall – according to one study, magnetic radiator covers are 13-20% more efficient than traditional wooden covers. However, they may get too hot to touch, meaning they aren’t as suitable for young families.



MDF radiator covers offer a budget-friendly and lightweight option for modern interiors. Their smooth, uniform surface makes them perfect for painting or customizing to match any décor, though they require careful handling to avoid moisture or heat damage. The Vale Designs Grey Radiator Cover is a stylish example of an MDF cover with its beautiful grey finish and contemporary cup handles.



Wooden radiator covers bring warmth and character to traditional or rustic spaces. While slightly heavier, heat insulating and more expensive, they provide a long-lasting, customisable solution that combines style with safety, particularly for households looking for a classic aesthetic.

Radiator Cover Safety Tips


Secure installation and radiator cover maintenance are important. Here are our top five safety tips for installing and maintaining your radiator covers:


  • Secure the cover: Fix wall-mounted covers or ensure freestanding/magnetic covers sit firmly.
  • Child safety: Avoid gaps, choose stable designs to prevent tipping, and make sure the cover is attached securely.
  • Allow airflow: Use slatted or louvered covers and leave space above and around the radiator.
  • Keep valves clear: Don’t block thermostatic controls or radiator access.
  • Check regularly: Inspect stability and fixings to maintain safe use.


Trends and Customisation Options


There are many radiator cover design options available to suit your requirements, including various sizes, colours, finishes and storage options. Fixed width, custom and adjustable radiator covers. Radiator covers come in a range of fixed widths to suit different radiators. Explore Plumbworld’s extensive collection of large, medium and small radiator covers to find the best option for your home.


If none of these radiator cover dimensions are suitable, custom radiator covers might be the way to go. Because they are made to measure, these options can be expensive – especially if you’d like a custom finish, materials, or grille. Since they have been designed for your specific radiator, however, there’s a good chance they can’t be reused for other radiators in the future. Available at Plumbworld, adjustable radiator covers are a much cheaper alternative to custom options. Thanks to their extendible design, they can be adjusted to suit a range of radiator widths, meaning you can repurpose them for a different radiator if you move house.


Radiator cover colours


A wide range of radiator cover colours are available to suit your interior. Popular options include white, black, grey and oak. Painted and woodgrain finishes are available to complement your home interior.


  • White: Ideal for a crisp finish, but shows dirt more easily
  • Black: A sleek option for modern homes, but requires regular maintenance as dust is more visible.
  • Grey: Perfect for contemporary settings – choose a light, medium or dark grey radiator cover to match your décor.
  • Oak: Oak is a popular wood finish across home furnishings due to its beautiful woodgrain – a matching radiator cover will blend in nicely.
