Doors & finishes

Wardrobe doors that complete the room

The frontage changes how a bedroom feels, but the door system also affects access and everyday use. Compare hinged and sliding options through real installations.

Hinged fronts

Clear access, considered proportions

Hinged doors can be designed as simple flat panels or with more pronounced framed detailing. A painted finish can coordinate with the room, while other available finishes can introduce texture.

The bed, bedside tables and circulation space all affect how comfortably doors can open.

Sliding fronts

Opening space without outward swing

Sliding fronts suit rooms where outward opening clearance is limited and can create a clean, broad frontage. Panel overlap, track space and access to drawers need to be considered together.

Mirrors, coordinated panels and woodgrain finishes each change how the frontage feels. The current range is discussed during the design process.

Which works best?

Choose by access, not assumption

If the room can accommodate either system, compare access, interior organisation and appearance before deciding.
