Filling in triangular gap between wall and wardrobe

richardw

How do you fill in the triangular gap when building in a fitted wardrobe against the wall?

I've levelled the wardrobe so it is vertical with the spirit level leaving the triangular gap, the triangle has the adjacent to the angle length about 2000mm with the opposite being about 12mm.

Do you just try and get a piece of wood the right size and screw it to the wall and then plane it down to size?

I might be completely wrong , more than willing to be told ' rubbish'

But I would have scribed the panel , to the wall .
Are these 'fitted ' wardrobes , home made? have they detachable sides
Is wallbash , crackers!

Fit a cover strip or bead (of the same colour as the wardrobe panel) and this disquises the gap.

No need to plane or cut it to the size of the gap

So a quadrant mould say 14mm, 2 m long against the wall may do it?

A nice simple ( cheap ) answer from iamcornholio

Yes a quadrant would do, but also consider a scotia (the oposite to a quadrant) as this can be less obtrusive

Many thanks, simple when you know how!
