North Yorkshire is a county of limestone and sandstone cottages, Georgian York townhouses and rural farmhouses. 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
The difference between a fitted job and a fitted-looking job is the setting out. For sliding door wardrobes in North Yorkshire we rod the job first, so what arrives on site already accounts for the bows, the skirting and the ceiling line.
How we build it
Timber is chosen for the room it is going into. Painted work is built in tulipwood and moisture-resistant MDF because they hold a crisp arris and take a sprayed finish without grain rise. Where the grain is meant to be seen we use European oak, walnut or ash, with veneers laid so the figure runs continuously across a set of doors.
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.

Straight answers
Sliding Door Wardrobes in North Yorkshire — common questions
Can sliding wardrobes be removed later?
The doors and track come off easily. The carcass is fixed to the wall, so removing it will need making good behind. It is fitted furniture, designed to stay.
Can sliding doors be full height?
Yes, up to about 2,800mm. Above around 2,400mm we move to a heavier gear set and a steel-reinforced stile, because a tall panel that flexes will jam in the track.
Do sliding doors seal against dust?
Not fully — there is always a running clearance. Brush seals on the stiles reduce it a great deal. If dust is a real concern, hinged doors on soft-close hinges are the better choice.
Is the floor under the wardrobe carpeted?
We recommend fitting to the subfloor and carpeting up to the unit. Sliding gear needs a flat, firm bottom track, and carpet underneath will compress unevenly and throw the doors out.
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.
