Walk in Wardrobe or Reach in Wardrobe. Which do you Prefer and Why?
Comments (10)I agree with jmm1837 and builders and designers are now realising that clients are spending more of their hard earned cash on clothes and require space to look after their dresses, skirts, suits, shoes bags etc. The key rule for built in or walk in robes is to be able to see and reach everything in your wardrobe. Wardrobe design is very different to kitchen design and it is worth investing in a professional wardrobe designers service to get maximum use of space. If you choose a Reach in or Built in wardrobe the doors are the main feature and make a statement in the room therefore style and finish is very important. If you choose hinged doors make sure you have enough room to open them, sliding doors take up less space. A professional wardrobe designer will work with you to custom design the internal fit out of the built in robe, how much half hang, full hang or 3/4 hanging you need, shoe storage and how many drawers you require. Fashions may change but style never dates, if you get the design right and invest in quality your wardrobe will last a lifetime.www.alliancerobes.com.au...See MoreWalk in wardrobe - entranceway and Ikea vs custom built units
Comments (13)There are a number of challenges here that arise frequently, namely: The space is tight, and budget seems an issue. Door options: 1 sliding cavity door into robe- problem: people rarely bother to close them so often a pointless result 2 Hinged doors on the cabinetry-problem the galley you have is only 2000mm wide or even 2200mm. This will make it very tight if you plan to have hinged doors with both sides at 600mm carcass depth leaving either 800mm or 1000mm aisle. This will mean you don't have clearance for you and a door swing, assuming a door width of 500-600mm . You will find it very claustrophobic, and impossible with two people using it. 3 Sliding doors-these will limit your access to the interior and most people dislike them, however probably a workable solution- if you go this way, put the door track at 660mm not 600mm to clear suit jackets. 4 Enclose only one side of the wardrobe with doors and have the other for hanging which tend to be neater than the shelf items.(choose the side that is most visible from the front door. Depending on your ratio requirement of hanging to shelving/drawers, you might fit all hanging on one side then you can have drawers all along the lower section with shelving above with upper doors only. That way, the swing of the doors is easier as you don't need to clear your feet, only your upper body. Then gain bonus space in the area by making the enclosed cabinets only 400mm deep externally. Folded clothing folds to 360-380mm so don't waste the space with 600mm depth. Any additional hanging required on the enclosed wall is positioned distant to the entry and will be mainly out of view. This will save on doors, space and look tidy. It requires a custom build, the cost of this walk in robe in gloss melamine was around $7500.00 including design. Best of luck. The walk in below is 2000mm across, the first section on the left is 400mm deep for his shoes and drawers, the section on the right is 620mm deep. The distant section on the left is 600m providing space for hanging. That way the aisle in the first part is more generous and this tight space feels generouson the left we have his shoes behind doors and drawers below-at 400mm deep this makes the aisle more generous to cope with doors the photo below shows with door near the entry to conceal the"mess"from the walk way(see the appearance from the doorway in top photo), the hanging at the end is not visible at the entry we made the most of the full depth for shoes in our custom drawers...See MoreEn-suite or not in main bedroom ?
Comments (55)I think you should explore the idea of getting a Pod on the deck. its like a mini granny flat / cabana with toilet and small multi purpose room. You might have the space for this. Your layout looks fine as it is, and if you have a covered pergola, a second toilet in a pod will works well there. I am a bit against adding plumbing and moving walls to your house. First its a mess. lots of putting pipes under the flooring, fixing the flooring again, also ceiling and conrice works, and you end up with smaller bed, tighter layout. Too much sacrifice and not too much to gain....See MoreRenovating small en-suite 2980 x 1100
