Walk-In Dressing Rooms in Greater London

Open hanging, drawer banks and lighting planned around what you actually own.

Greater London is a county of Victorian and Edwardian terraces, Georgian townhouses and post-war conversions, where no two chimney alcoves are the same width. That is exactly the kind of building stock a walk-in dressing room 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

Off-the-shelf units are made to standard sizes and then filled out with scribe strips. Our walk-in dressing room work is cut to the dimensions taken from your Greater London property, so there is no packing, no filler and no gap that opens up in year two.

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

Walk-In Dressing Rooms in Greater London — common questions

What lighting works best?

LED strip in the underside of each shelf, on a movement sensor, plus a decent ceiling light with a high colour rendering index. Poor colour rendering is why clothes look different once you get downstairs.

Should there be a window in a dressing room?

Ideally yes, for ventilation. If there is not, an extract fan on a humidistat is worth fitting — a sealed room full of clothes and no air movement is how you get musty fabric.

Can a dressing room be made from a small bedroom?

That is the most common way it happens. A box room of 2.4m by 2.4m makes an excellent dressing room and adds more to how the house lives than a bedroom nobody sleeps in.

How much room do I need for a walk-in?

A single-sided run needs 1,500mm of floor width — 600mm for the units and 900mm to stand and open a drawer. A double-sided run needs 2,300mm minimum. Below that you are better off with a wardrobe wall.

Do I need to empty the room before you fit?

Clear the working wall and anything fragile. We bring dust sheets and a vacuum-extracted saw, but fitting makes dust and we would rather your furniture was out of the way. For kitchens we will agree a sequence with you so you keep a sink and a kettle for as long as possible.
