Modern shaker style wardrobe

Modern shaker style wardrobe

Project goal: High-end traditional wardrobe with a contemporary finish. Plenty of hanging rail space and a good amount of drawer boxes. The unit needed to be step-fronted in order to fit into the limited alcove space at just 550mm deep. The customer also requested that there would be space for a pull-out Corby trouser press and a hidden safe under one of the drawer boxes.

Materials: Interior made from oak veneered MDF with a satin clear, acrylic lacquer, and solid oak lipping for a quality finish. Door-sensitive LED strip lighting is used throughout to illuminate the hanging spaces. Drawer boxes are made from solid oak with dovetail joins for an aesthetically pleasing look. Doors made from moisture-resistant MDF, sprayed in a Farrow & Ball, light grey polyurethane lacquer.

Client testimonial

We have now commissioned Martin for two pieces of work in our house. Firstly, a pair of alcove units and then a large, fitted wardrobe. Martin was extremely professional, courteous, and flexible in his approach to the work and was extremely collaborative in the design stages. The result was that he has created first class pieces of furniture which exceeded my expectations. They were expensive but worth the cost!

Useful informaton

Commissions start at £5000 +VAT and are typically between £10,000 and £50,000.

MW Creative Carpentry will guide you through the design, build and installation process to deliver outstanding results on time, and on budget.

In order to install projects in a safe and timely fashion, please ensure all access routes and relevant spaces are clear and that children and pets are kept away from tools and materials.

 

We ask customers not to open any wrapped panels if they are left in the property overnight. MW Creative Carpentry will not be held responsible for any damage that may occur in such instances.

 

We will require parking to be available within a sensible distance of the installation property. Please provide all relevant permits or tickets upon arrival.

 

The customer should coordinate with any other construction projects taking place in the property in order to avoid any delays or accidental damage during the installation process. If our installation is delayed, there will be a daily fee of £60 +VAT, as well as any extra costs to repair any damage.

 

Our real wood and veneered products have a protective UV finish to reduce the chance of them changing colour due to direct sunlight; however, some natural materials may still discolour slightly over time despite this.

 

For all other questions, please refer to our T&C’s.

Most of our materials and finishes are incredibly durable but are not indestructible.

For maximum longevity, we recommend that customers follow some simple care instructions to protect their furniture:

 

  • Avoid placing items on furniture that might cause chips, watermarks, and scuffs. Coasters, placemats and covers are recommended.
  • Be sure to dry off any wooden furniture that comes into contact with water to ensure longevity.
  • We recommend the use of furniture polish with a microfibre cloth and to avoid strong cleansers and cleaning agents.
  • If you experience any functional problems with our furniture, please don’t hesitate to contact us and we will happily assist you.

 

If you are unsure how to use or care for your furniture, please ask for more information.
