Habitat Max 2 Door Sliding Wardrobe in oak finish.

Sliding wardrobes

Sliding doors = savvy use of space. Because the door moves across instead of opening out, there’s more room around it. Bye bye crammed and cluttered. Let’s not forget to mention the choice of chests, rails and open shelving you’ll have too.

Mirrored wardrobes

Short on wall space? Make way for mirrored wardrobes. Basically a 2-in-1, it eliminates the need to squeeze in a stand-alone mirror, making the room feel bigger and brighter. It offers more than meets the eye.

Space-saving wardrobes

Give yourself more wiggle room with clothing rails, corner wardrobes and other space-saving designs. They're often more affordable than other styles too. Height adjustable, built-in shelves, sliding doors, multi-rail or wheels, they could be the answer to your problems.

Seeing as the contents are dinkier, kids’ wardrobes usually are too. Fold, hang, stack (scrunch and chuck in when the kids are involved), their clothes can be put away to make room for play.

How to measure a wardrobe

  • Note the width, height and depth of your space and wardrobe to make sure it’ll fit. You may want to check out the internal measurements too. These will indicate how much storage space you actually have.
  • We have the dimensions of every wardrobe we offer in the ‘Details and Dimensions’ section next to the wardrobes that catch your eye.
  • All our wardrobes come flat packed, so your doors and awkward corners shouldn’t be an issue, unless you have tight spiral staircases then you may need to pivot!

Clearance

  • It’s important to measure the space around your wardrobe. You want to be able to comfortably stand in front of it and open the doors and drawers easily.
  • If you have a smaller bedroom, this is where sliding wardrobes work perfectly as they don’t open outwards.
  • When measuring your space, leave the following clearance: 1cm of width clearance and 4cm of ceiling clearance.

Things to consider

Choose a wardrobe that fits your life, not just your room. Here are some of they things to keep in mind when making your choice:

  • Measure your room carefully to ensure a comfortable, seamless fit.
  • Consider wardrobes with drawers for organised, clutter-free storage.
  • Choose sliding doors to save space and enhance accessibility.
  • Think about your clothing collection and everyday storage habits.
  • Match your wardrobe with bedroom furniture sets for a cohesive, well-styled look.
  • Select a design that complements your décor and personal style.
  • Prioritise durable materials and quality finishes for long-term use.

Wardrobe storage and organisers

Wardrobe storage

Create compartments for smaller bits like socks, accessories and anything else that doesn’t need to be hung with baskets, boxes and trays. Hanging shoe racks are a nifty way to add extra space-saving storage. You might even want to pick up some under the bed boxes to tuck away outfits that aren’t seasonally suitable.

Caring for your wardrobe

A little care today keeps your wardrobe beautiful for years. Here a few tips to care for your wardrobe:

  • Dust and wipe surfaces regularly to maintain their fresh finish.
  • Use organisers and baskets to keep every item in its place.
  • Avoid overloading shelves to preserve structure and functionality.
