DISCOVER WHERE TO SAVE (AND WHERE TO SPEND) WHEN DESIGNING YOUR DREAM FITTED BEDROOM FURNITURE
-
If you're thinking about buying fitted wardrobes, the first consideration is usually the cost because, compared to freestanding designs, they're almost always more expensive as they will be custom-built. Also, pricing can be vague - you can get a ballpark figure, but it isn't until the designers have your requirements and room dimensions that they can tailor (and price) your ideal wardrobe set-up.
Despite the extra cost, there are plenty of benefits to having a fitted wardrobe.
'From maximising every inch of space, customisation for the most efficient storage solutions and seamless integration into the rest of your bedroom design, high-quality fitted wardrobes are worth every penny,' says Josie Medved, design manager at Symphony. 'They can also increase the value of your property, as they are built to last." The final amount can vary vastly depending on the size, materials, design and specifications that you choose.
You'll also need to take installation costs into consideration (if not included in the package), unless you decide to embark upon a DIY project.
"If you opt for a tailor-made wardrobe then the choices for size and layout are endless,' says Rachal Hutcheson, national retail manager at Sharps.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
'When planning a fitted wardrobe installation, there are many options to choose from. The key is to select a design that fits your everyday needs,' explains Cari Bateman, designer at Neville Johnson.
'There are different types of fitted wardrobes which can be distinguished by how they are put together,' says Thomas Goodman, property and construction expert at Myjobquote.co.uk.
A full-carcass fitted wardrobe consists of a top, base, two sides and a back panel.
