Oxfordshire is a county of Cotswold stone cottages, Oxford's Victorian villas and large new settlements. 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 Oxfordshire 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
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
Sliding Door Wardrobes in Oxfordshire — common questions
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.
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.
How do I pay, and when?
A deposit at order to cover materials, a stage payment when the work leaves the workshop, and the balance on completion after you have inspected the fit. Everything is written into the quotation before you commit.
