Large Wardrobe With 5 Sliding Doors

The main objective of this project was to design and then build a large wardrobe with 5 sliding doors in a master bedroom. The installation of the wardrobe was done by Lewis in just one and a half days. The meticulous planning and preparation work allowed for this quick build.

An ancillary aspect to this project was to take out a stud wall from an old walk-in wardrobe. Then we built partition walls, moved some spotlights and re-skimmed the walls. The customer requested a 3-4 week delay from these works to allow them time to lay new laminate flooring and paint the newly plastered bedroom. This having been achieved we duly returned to build the wardrobe with 5 sliding doors.

Building The Wardrobe

Lewis started by leveling the base as this needs to be spot on for the sliding doors to run properly and the internal drawers to sit right. The wardrobe was a framed system which means no backs or tops so you can see the walls behind the shelves. It was split into 5 different sections, some drawers, shelves and hanging spaces so they had different storage options. After all the internals were complete, we scribed in the infills to the walls.

The Specification

Using a White finish for the cabinetry with 5 x Sliding doors (3 White Gloss & 2 Mirrored) with black frame, starting from the entrance door and working clockwise around the room, we are to supply and install the following fitted furniture: -

Completing The Large Wardrobe Project

Due to the long run of wardrobes we had to feed the track trough the window as we didn’t

have the access via the stairs. This was a planned maneuver and worked very well. Finally we then installed 5 sliding doors which consisted of 2 mirrored doors and 3 white gloss doors. All of these had a black trim to give it a modern look.

So, the job was completed and we handed over the large wardrobe with 5 sliding doors to the delighted customers.
