In 1883 the company moved to larger premises in Tabernacle Street (in the East End of London). By 1899 the Harris Lebus furniture factory had become the largest furniture manufacturing firm in England employing over 1000 people. During World War I the production of furniture declined until the entire factory was employed manufacturing munitions, particularly wooden items such as ammunition boxes, tent poles and pins, wheelbarrows and stretchers. In 1917 the factory constructed the Handley Page O/100 Bomber which were sent for final engine mounting and assembly elsewhere. At the outset of the World War II, domestic furniture production was again replaced by the manufacture of supplies, however the companys past engineering skills were soon brought back into play in the construction of the Albermarle Bomber, Airspeed Horsa Glider, Mosquito Bomber and Landing Craft. During the War Lebus was one of the few manufactures allowed to continue limited production of domestic furniture.
