  • Yep I think that sounds like a plan to me too! I had a local wardrobe company come round to quote last night for our sliding wardrobes. Beautiful wardrobes. I'd like 2 split panel doors and one full mirror doow.. with soft close... came to almost £2000!!

    I would be interested to know where i can buy the shoe racks, tie racks and pull out trouser racks from

    I am planning on building a built in wardrobe in our bedroom and have no intention of paying £k's of pounds for some cls and plasterboard.

    obviously the expense will be in the doors and fittings but hoping not to much

    b&q do them a_j_mair

    £2000 probably isn't THAT bad littlerose! Sliderobes were double that!

  • Wow you're joking?!!

    I've also just made appointments for Hammonds and Sharps to come and measure up and quote out of curiosity / comparison.. we'll see what they come up with!!

    Nope :( really amazingly smooth slidey doors though! I need to ring some joiners. After the roofers and plumbers and window men though:rotfl:

  • Hehe :)

    Yep.. I fell in love with the soft close option!! Typically more expensive!
  • Morning all..

    Well if you're after MSE sliding doors.. do not go to Sharps or Hammonds!!

    Hammonds came in at £3500 and Sharps a whopping £4500! Shocking!! The sharps one started out at about £11k but they have 50% off and an extra 20% off. Not cheap!

    We self installed BnQ sliding mirror doors last year but they slip off the track constantly and TWO have cracked corner to corner.
    SHarps quoated us £3800 (thats with a 67% discount!) but are charging £400 because we have a Combi, no odd angles just four doors and storage solutions.
    I used Ikea's home planer and made up similar Wdrobes and storage for £700 (without macthing door for Boiler cupboard).
    Sharps offer 12 years guarantee but theyre not cheap.
    Decision not made yet.
