Anyone know of any web sites or companies out there which supply the interior fittings for a wlak in wardrobe. Mine is 9ft 6 inches by 6 feet 6 inces and I want to fit it out so as to maximise storage etc.
Sliderobes no longer supply the internal fitting alone and I don't need doors. Anyone know anyone else.
I am asking a couple of carpenters for quotes but I am working on designing the layout and could do with a little inspiration.
Any help appreciated.
hey we fitted out our walk in wardrobe. We used MFI to order the base units as the size's were exact. they have 6 drawers down and could fit 3 across so have 18 drawers for storage. i put 6 open box units on top on either side and left enough room for shoe shelves in between (remember to allow extra space in 2 rows for boots if your missus wears any). on the opposite wall i put 2 rails for hanging clothes. one went the 9ft long and the other 6ft long this allowed 3 ft hanging space for long dresses and coats.
I had mine done a number of years ago and I purchased a steel basket system from Storage Solutions in Harrolds Cross (not sure if they are still there or not 6 years ago). I saw something simular in woodies a year or two ago as well.
The baskets are white plastic coated steel and they fit in on a runner. You can have deep baskets or shallow baskets. I went with deep and a few shallow. On the top of one section I put a sheet of white/****e chip aprox 24" deep and 8' long and that gave me a worktop (wardrobe in dormer - odd shapes) and where I had room to put a tall unit I stacked one on top of the other and mounted another sheet of white/white chip to the back and was able to put a bar from the wall to the back of this shelve unit for long hanging clothes. Its great that I don't have to be opening drawers to see where everything is.
I was looking in the recent IKEA catalogue and they have a wonderful layout for a walk in waderobe - can be bought modular - I'm not sure of the cost but would be qworth checking out.
