Mission Statement

Our mission at Key Interiors is to deliver the highest quality designed and executed renovation project for your firm, a workplace designed to motivate your employees and inspire prosperous client relationships. Let us be the key to your interior project.​

What We Do

Key Interiors has developed a unique system for providing clients a total office fitout.

We work closely together, from the initial design concepts right through to project completion. This provides you with a level of fiscal control and project time management that is not possible without this turn-key system.

Why Key Interiors?

Key Interiors is unique in the commercial interiors industry. By working with our clients from concept to completion, we are very aware of the client’s budget needs. Time is saved by not pricing concepts that are out of bounds financially. Although each project has its possibilities and challenges, our processes can adapt quickly so that together we can deliver a successful result on time and within budget. We eliminate the headache of dealing with multiple different trades by simply doing that part for you. Essentially, Key Interiors is your one-stop-shop for the entire project!
