Helping You Find the Right Wardrobe for Your Home

Posted on 02/07/2015
We know that no two of our customers are the same - each has their own unique design preferences, a different style of property and many unique characteristics contained within it. Therefore, when you visit our showroom, we take the time to understand exactly what you are looking for and help you find a design solution that matches it. Both sliding and hinged wardrobes offer a number of benefits which may be crucial in determining which is right for you home. So, unlike other companies who specialise in one or the other, we can recommend the product that is most suited to you. If you are considering a fitted wardrobe for your bedroom, we wanted to guide you through which of the two types of door we supply may be most appropriate to your room. Sliding Door Wardrobes Now there is a perception that sliding door wardrobes are the more expensive of the two options. In fact you may be surprised to know that there is very little to choose between the two and in some instances a sliding door could work out to be a more affordable solution. If you are looking to really maximise the full potential of the space you have available, a sliding door wardrobe makes a great choice. Unlike a hinged door, which is fitted with a plinth and infill to provide clearance from the floor and ceiling, a sliding door can run from floor to ceiling. The extra space this generates is usually the equivalent of an additional shelf at the top - perfect for storing away extra pillows and your winter duvet. sliding door wardrobe Hinged Door Wardrobes When it comes to a hinged door wardrobe, your biggest consideration should be space. In many instances, the opening of a hinged door will cause it to take up considerably more space than a sliding alternative. If you do enjoy the luxury of space however, a hinged door wardrobe offers a number of fantastic benefits that cannot be achieved with a sliding door. Firstly, unlike a sliding door which will always be at least 50% closed, a hinged solution offers 100% opening and allows for quick and easy access. Hinged door wardrobes are also the ideal solution if you have an angled ceiling in your room. So whether you a square room, a steep angle or a shallow slope, a hinged door gives the ability to make full use of all the space in your room.
