Shaker Style Wardrobe with oak interior

Shaker Style Wardrobe with oak interior

Project goal: To create a double-height wardrobe that uses all the available space, including the alcoves on either side of the chimney breast. The doors must be bi-fold opening so that all the clothes can be viewed at the same time. The inside of the wardrobe would also need to house a ladder to reach the top section of the wardrobe. In order to use the two alcoves, I incorporated deeper cabinets on either side. One with a simple, extra bookshelf unit and the other with a pull-out unit almost one meter deep. This also included another hanging rail and extra shelving inside.

Approach: In order to use the two alcoves, I incorporated deeper cabinets on either side. One with a simple, extra bookshelf unit and the other with a pull-out unit almost one meter deep. This also included another hanging rail and extra shelving inside.

Materials: The interior of the wardrobe was made from oak laminated egger MFC board and the shaker door exterior was made from moisture-resistant MDF with an off-white polyurethane lacquer. Two bi-folding door systems were linked together for the lower doors and the upper doors were push-to-open.

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.
