Sliding Door Wardrobes in Glasgow

Full-height sliding doors where a hinged door has nowhere to swing.

Glasgow is a county of sandstone tenements with generous room heights and original press cupboards. That is exactly the kind of building stock a sliding-door 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 sliding-door wardrobe we make starts with a site survey and a set of setting-out drawings, not a catalogue page. We measure the opening in Glasgow, 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

Carcass work is birch ply or MR MDF depending on span and load. Face frames and doors are solid hardwood. Everything is machined on the same setting so stiles, rails and reveals line through, and shadow gaps stay parallel from one end of the run to the other.

Finish and materials

Finishing happens in the workshop wherever possible. Sprayed paint gives an even film that brushwork cannot match, and the only work left on site is the final touch-in around scribes and fixings.

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

Sliding Door Wardrobes in Glasgow — common questions

Can I have three doors instead of two?

Yes. Three doors on a two-track system means one bay is always covered. Three tracks gives you access to any two bays at once but pushes the carcass deeper.

How heavy can a sliding door be?

Standard domestic gear handles up to about 80kg per leaf. A full-height mirrored door can reach that on its own, which is why we specify the gear after the panel material is chosen, not before.

How much space do sliding doors take up inside?

The top track and bottom guide take roughly 100mm off the internal depth. On a 650mm carcass that still leaves comfortable square hanging; on a 550mm carcass it does not, so we would recommend hinged doors instead.

What can the door panels be made from?

Mirror, painted glass, veneered panel, painted MDF, or a framed combination of two or three. Mirror adds a lot of weight, so the gear is sized accordingly.

What guarantee do you give?

Ten years on workmanship. Hardware carries the manufacturer's warranty, which on good runners and hinges is usually lifetime. Finishes are guaranteed for five years against flaking or delamination in normal domestic use.
