Sliding Door Wardrobes
When the bed sits close to the wardrobe wall, a hinged door is a problem before it is a style choice.
When the bed sits close to the wardrobe wall, a hinged door is a problem before it is a style choice.
The doors hang from a track set into the head and are guided at the floor, so nothing stands proud of the carpet and there is no bottom channel to collect dust. Carrying the weight at the head is what keeps the doors aligned and running true.
The trade-off is worth stating plainly: one door always sits in front of another, so you see about half the interior at a time. We plan the inside around that — what you reach for daily in the halves you open first, the rest behind.
Every project is priced on its own terms — the size of the run, the finish, how the inside is laid out and how much making-good the room needs. There is no price list. The consultation is free and carries no obligation, and you leave it with a real figure rather than a range.
Confirmed after the survey, not guessed at the enquiry. We measure the room properly before anything is made, agree the drawings with you, and set dates from there. That visit is what keeps the fitting itself uneventful.
Usually, yes. A full-height mirrored run carries the window light back across the room and reads as depth rather than as a wall. Worth weighing: mirror shows dust and fingerprints more than paint, and you will see the whole room reflected from the bed. Some people like that. Some very much do not.
One point of contact from the first visit to the last handle. Where a room needs mains wiring for integrated lighting, or plastering to make good, we bring in trusted trade partners we have worked with for years and coordinate them for you.
Rarely. We ask for the wall to be clear and the old furniture emptied. Floors are protected, the work stays in that room where it can, and we clear up each evening rather than leaving you camping around it.
Tell us about the wall. We will measure it, check the clearances and tell you whether sliding or hinged genuinely suits the room.
