Unlike freestanding wardrobes that are traditionally rectangular and quite bulky, bespoke fitted wardrobes can be designed to be any shape or size you’d like. You can easily build a wardrobe to sit in an alcove in your room or underneath your sloping ceiling, for example, enabling you to make the most of the unused space in your bedroom. You can even have a wardrobe fitted wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling, ensuring you have all of the storage space you need.
When you install a bespoke fitted wardrobe, you can decide which storage solutions will be most useful to you. Whether you have more clothes that need to be hung than folded, or vice versa, you can ensure you have the amount of storage space you require. Not to mention, with lots of other accessories such as; tie racks, shoe shelves and jewellery inserts available, all of your belongings will have a dedicated home in a custom wardrobe interior.
Finding a freestanding wardrobe that meets all of your needs in terms of functionality and style can be incredibly difficult. When you opt for a bespoke fitted wardrobe, you won’t have to compromise and you can ensure that every element of the design is perfect for your needs and taste. With more design options than ever before, there really is something for absolutely everyone when designing a bespoke fitted wardrobe.
More often than not, when using a freestanding wardrobe on a daily basis, it will need to be replaced after a few years and they’re known for being flimsy. However, fitted wardrobes are made with high-quality materials and they’re designed to stand the test of time. Once installed, it is very unlikely that you will need to replace your wardrobe during your time of homeownership and you won’t have to worry about the doors or drawers not functioning properly.
Depending on the furniture store you turn to for a freestanding wardrobe, it is likely that you will be able to design a bespoke fitted wardrobe for a similar price. Due to the fact that you have control over the design, you can make this bedroom storage solution as inexpensive as you’d like and sticking to a budget is actually quite easy. Not to mention, fitted wardrobes are really cost-effective too and they’re a brilliant investment to make.
