Are bespoke fitted wardrobes, closets, cupboards or Armoires worth the cost? Lets find out…
Have you ever gazed longingly at perfectly organised, Instagram-worthy wardrobes and wondered, how much would it cost to have one of those in my home?
A bespoke fitted wardrobe isn’t just a piece of furniture. If designed well, it’s a game-changer for your mornings, a clutter-busting solution and a touch of luxury that makes your house fee like your cosy home.
So… Just how much does one of those fancy built-in wardrobes cost?
The answer, as you might have guessed, depends on a number of factors, so let’s dig into the big question and break it down.
Here’s what we’ll cover in this article…
- What is the average cost of fitted wardrobes in the UK?
- How much does it cost to get a wardrobe built?
- Should I get a carpenter to build a wardrobe?
- How do custom-made wardrobes compare to DIY solutions?
What is the average cost of fitted wardrobes in the UK?
Let’s start with a ballpark…
The cost of fitted wardrobes in the UK varies widely, depending on the size, materials and features.
But here’s the thing: with our bespoke wardrobes, you’re not buying off-the-shelf furniture – You’re commissioning a unique suite of tailored furniture, unique to your room, your needs and your style.
Want mirrored doors, integrated LED lighting or a finish that matches your favourite paint shade? That’s where the magic (and the investment) happens.
At The Heritage Wardrobe Company, we specialise in handcrafted designs that are built to last a lifetime, offering exceptional craftsmanship that’s a cut above the rest – just like our lifetime guarantee.
How much does it cost to get a wardrobe built?
The cost of building a wardrobe comes down to one simple question: how ambitious are you?
Do you just want to maximise your cupboard storage space or are you looking for a space that feels like stepping into your very own high street designer boutique? Either way, step this way.
Here are some factors that influence the price of a custom-built wardrobe:
- Size and complexity: A small fitted wardrobe in an alcove will naturally cost less than a large walk-in (or walk-through) wardrobe with custom internal storage and a built-in dressing table.
- Materials: The quality of materials affects both durability and style. Solid wood, premium veneers and bespoke luxury finishes are worth every penny if you’re aiming for something timeless that will last a lifetime.
- Bespoke Features: Soft-close hinges, pull-out rails, velvet-lined drawers, LED lighting – They all add a luxurious touch, but also impact the price.
At The Heritage Wardrobe Company, we guide you through the entire planning and design process, ensuring every penny you invest creates a wardrobe that perfectly fits your space, lifestyle and budget.
Should I get a carpenter to build a wardrobe?
Hiring a carpenter to build a wardrobe can be a tempting option, especially if you want something unique. However, there’s a few key differences between a local carpenter and a specialist bespoke wardrobe company like The Heritage Wardrobe Co: Namely our 20 + years of specialist wardrobe expertise and the extremely high quality of our finish.
Carpenters can be fantastic at creating simple structures and built-in storage, but a bespoke wardrobe specialist will go much further. We don’t just measure and build; we consult, design, inspire, craft and install wardrobes that integrate seamlessly into your beautiful home and lifestyle.
With over 20 years of experience, our expert team ensures that every detail – from the perfect paint finish to the smooth soft-close doors/draws, is executed flawlessly.
…And let’s not forget our lifetime guarantee, which perfectly reflects our confidence in the quality of every single wardrobe, closet, cupboard or Armoire we create.
How do custom-made wardrobes compare to DIY solutions?
DIY wardrobes can be fun… if you enjoy assembling furniture and don’t mind the occasional battle with a flat-pack instruction manual.
But if you’re after a wardrobe that transforms your space, makes the best use of every inch of space and is built to last a lifetime (most importantly, definitely doesn’t involve any flat-packs), a custom made built-in wardrobe by The Heritage Wardrobe Company is the way to go.
Here’s why custom-made fitted wardrobes are better that a DIY solution:
- Tailored perfection: With bespoke wardrobes, every element is designed and built to fit your needs and exact space – We’ll even deal with those awkward alcoves, low sloping ceilings and intrusive chimney breast.
- Durability: Our custom wardrobes are crafted from premium materials and meticulously handcrafted by our team of experts in our million pound facilities in South London, so you can be sure they’ll stand the test of time.
- Aesthetic appeal: Unlike DIY options, which can sometimes look like… well, DIY, bespoke wardrobes are seamlessly integrated into your home’s décor and are the pinnacle of luxury. A custom-made built-in wardrobe by The Heritage Wardrobe Company will look like it’s been there since your house was built.
At The Heritage Wardrobe Company, we believe in the power of bespoke design to transform not just your room, but the way you feel every time you walk into it… There’s not many Ikea products that can say that!
