Fitted wardrobes are a fantastic storage solution for your home. They utilise all the space you have available in your bedroom. Whether you’re a shopaholic or have a capsule wardrobe, fitted wardrobes complete the look of a bedroom and help you store your belongings in style.
But how can you fit in your bespoke built-in wardrobes? We’ve come up with some ways to use every inch of space available in your bedroom and get the type of fitted wardrobes you want.
Use an alcove to your advantage
If you’ve got an alcove in your bedroom, it makes sense to add fitted wardrobes there. These shaker wardrobes look fabulous either side of the fireplace in this neutral bedroom. Sometimes alcoves can go wasted, so using them for wardrobes is the perfect way to utilise space.
Have them designed for your space
If you’ve got the room, why not have fitted wardrobes added along an entire wall? Create the illusion that you’ve got more space by fitting mirrors to the doors or building them in, like in this bedroom.
Sliding doors
Sliding doors added to fitted wardrobes help you save even more space as they won’t open out into the room. Simply slide the doors along to uncover your array of shoes and clothes.
Fitted wardrobes for shoes
Not everyone may agree, but if you’ve got the space, using one fitted wardrobes simply for shoes is a perfect idea. If your shoe collection is large, it’s the best way to keep them all in one place without losing one strappy sandal all summer and then finding it when you’re looking for your snow boots.
There are plenty of ways that fitted wardrobes complete your bedroom. It’s up to you how you decide to use them. Overall, just make sure that you get a range of quotes from reliable bedroom fitters to see what the best price is.
