The Benefits of Sliding Wardrobes

To fully grasp the benefits of sliding wardrobes, we also have to realise the problems that can arise with some free-standing wardrobes. In comparison, free-standing units are somewhat clunky and cumbersome and unless you have spent the extra money to have them specially made to measure, they often never fit a specific area in your room and actually leave you with space that is wasted, not to mention all the dust that gathers on the top!

There are actually many benefits to sliding wardrobes but for the purpose of this post, we are going to break them down into 3 “S” words.

Storage – Perhaps the most obvious of the 3 “S” words we will look at. An effective storage solution is absolutely crucial in any bedroom and wardrobes often take the brunt of the action. The beauty of made to measure sliding door wardrobes is that they will work with your room perfectly and are able to store and pack away more of your clothes and other bedroom accessories than most free-standing units.

Space – The benefit of space is actually twofold. Firstly, you have all that extra space inside your wardrobe that enables you to store so much more than you could before. Secondly, by using all the available area inside the wardrobe, you have been able to create a lot of extra space on your bedroom floor, perhaps space that you never knew you had before! If all you've known is a free-standing wardrobe, then you will be all too familiar with the opening space required just to get access to your wardrobe contents on a daily basis. This problem is completely eradicated with sliding doors. This can be even more beneficial in smaller rooms or rooms that are peculiar shapes or contain boilers and airing cupboards. Not only can sliding wardrobes be made to measure to overcome these problems but in some cases they can also help to hide them!

Style – If you are passionate about interior design, then this might be your favourite of the “S” words. Floor to ceiling and wall to wall, sliding wardrobes can be a really stylish feature in your bedroom. There are so many ways in which you can tailor and personalise them so that they work perfectly with the rest of your décor  With wooden finishes, metallic finishes and ultra modern glass finishes, you can let the wardrobe take the design lead or choose something that blends beautifully with what you already have.
