Leicestershire is a county of slate-roofed brick terraces, ironstone villages and substantial new development. That is exactly the kind of building stock a fitted wardrobe has to be drawn around, so we allow for it at survey stage rather than on fitting day — walls get checked for wind and plumb, floors for level, and the setting-out is taken from the worst reading, not the best.
How we approach it
Walls in Leicestershire are rarely square and floors are rarely level. A fitted wardrobe that is built in a workshop to a nominal size will show every millimetre of that. We survey first, scribe on site, and finish so the joint line disappears.
How we build it
Hardware is specified to the weight it is carrying, not to a price point. Soft-close runners are rated for the drawer load, hinges are adjustable in three planes, and sliding gear is sized so a full-height door still moves with one finger a decade later.
Finish and materials
Every finished job gets a short handover: what the surface is, how to clean it, and how to adjust a hinge if a door drops after the heating has been on for a season. Adjustment is normal in timber and takes about two minutes once you know which screw to turn.

What happens next
Four steps, no surprises
Survey
A joiner visits, measures the opening, checks for level and plumb, and talks through how you want to use the space.
Drawings & quote
You get a setting-out drawing and a fixed written price. Nothing is ordered until you have approved both.
Workshop
Parts are machined, assembled and finished under cover while the site carries on with other trades.
Fit & handover
We fit, scribe, adjust and touch in, then walk you through care and adjustment before we leave.
Straight answers
Fitted Wardrobes in Leicestershire — common questions
How much hanging space do I actually need?
As a rule, one metre of double hanging holds around forty shirts or thirty jackets. Long hanging for coats and dresses needs 1,600mm of clear height; short hanging needs 1,050mm, which lets you stack two rails in the same bay. We measure what you own at survey rather than guessing.
Hinged or sliding doors?
Hinged doors give you the whole opening and full-depth shelves. Sliding doors need no swing space, which matters if the bed is close, but they lose around 100mm of internal depth to the track and you can only ever see half the wardrobe at once.
Can you fit around a chimney breast or a radiator?
That is one of the main reasons people go bespoke. We build the run in bays that step round the breast, and a radiator is either boxed with a ventilated grille or the run is returned short of it.
Do the doors need handles?
No. Push-to-open catches or a routed finger pull along the top edge give a completely flat front. Handles are easier to live with on heavy full-height doors, and a J-pull rail is a good middle ground.
How long does a bespoke job take from order to fitting?
Most fitted furniture runs four to eight weeks from approved drawings to fitting day. Kitchens, staircases and timber windows are longer at eight to fourteen weeks because the components are larger and the finishing schedule is longer. We give you a date band at quotation and confirm the fitting week once the drawings are signed off.
