Fitted wardrobes..fair price?

mae

Hi

Does anyone know if this seems a fair price for fitted wardrobes with sliding doors.

One company quoted £2000 with sliding doors, two double wardrobes behind that included 6 drawers and 2 hanging rails and one shelf inside.

The size is H 232 x W 212 x D 42

I have had a second quote and he emailed me back saying £1550 depending on board choice (none gloss) however I have emailed him back to clarify the details ie does this include the internal drawers etc so this price may not be accurate.

Bumping this to see if anyone has any experience of prices

It sounds in the right ballpark - is that bespoke made by a local joiner?

Its just a local fitted wardrobe company and I think the doors are pretty standard Ive seen them other places, they actually look similar to the Ikea sliding doors but are obviously fitted properly

You might be better finding a local carpenter or handyman as this is what I did when I went for sliding wardrobes in my bedroom, floor to ceiling & approx 11' wide. I ordered the doors & rails etc. then explained to my guy exactly how I wanted the interior of the robes to be, a mixture of shelves & hanging plus space for a low chest of drawers. Labour cost was £150 per day & was completed in under 3 days.

Prior to taking this route, when I'd checked online to get a rough estimate of cost from wardrobe companies, the prices were in the 2k-2.5k region. Mine came in at under £1k, so I was more than happy.
