Scottish Borders is a county of stone mill-town terraces and substantial rural farmhouses. 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
Every fitted wardrobe we make starts with a site survey and a set of setting-out drawings, not a catalogue page. We measure the opening in Scottish Borders, check the walls for wind and the floor for fall, then cut a carcass that fits the room you actually have.
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
You can have it primed for your own decorator, sprayed in any RAL or heritage colour, or left in oiled timber. Oiled finishes can be refreshed at home; sprayed finishes are harder wearing and are what we recommend for kitchens and anything at knee height.

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 Scottish Borders — common questions
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 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.
Do you work with architects and builders?
Regularly. We can work to your drawings and specification, price from a schedule, and co-ordinate with the main contractor's programme. We are equally happy dealing directly with a homeowner from a rough sketch.
