Walk in Wardrobe Installation in Hove

Walk in wardrobe installation in Hove turns a box room, wide landing or deep recess into open hanging, drawers and shelving. Layout comes first, because depth and height set what fits where.

How Much Room You Need

A single sided walk in wardrobe needs around 1.6 metres of width: 60cm for hanging and the rest to stand and move in. Two sides need about 2.4 metres. Below that, a fitted wardrobe with doors uses the space better than an open dressing room.

Planning the Layout

We start with what you own. Count long hanging items, short hanging, folded shelves, shoes and bags, then set the rails and shelves to those quantities. This is why two walk in wardrobes of the same size can hold very different amounts.

Lighting and Mirrors

Open storage needs more light than a bedroom does, because you are picking colours in a small space. Strip lighting under the shelves and a mirror on the end wall both help. We plan the wiring positions before any carcass goes in.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a small box room become a walk in wardrobe?

Usually yes. A room of around 2 by 2 metres works well with hanging on two sides and a mirror at the end. Anything narrower is better fitted with wardrobe doors instead. We measure and show you both layouts before you decide.

Does losing a bedroom affect the value of my house?

It can if you go from three bedrooms to two, since bedroom count drives search filters. Converting a fourth or fifth bedroom rarely has that effect. We can build the units so they are removable, which keeps the option open for a future buyer.

How long does walk in wardrobe installation take?

Three to four weeks from measuring to fitting, and two to three days on site. Electrics for the lighting are done before the carcasses go in. If the room needs decorating first, that adds a few days at the start.
