How to Choose the Right Wardrobe for Your Bedroom

A wardrobe is one of the biggest pieces of furniture in your bedroom, so it pays to choose carefully. Here is how to get it right.

1. Measure your space first

Measure the width, height and depth of the wall where the wardrobe will go. Leave a little room at the sides, and check that the doorway, stairs and hallway are wide enough to bring it in.

2. Pick the right number of doors

• 2 door: ideal for small rooms, guest rooms and kids' bedrooms.
• 3 door: a good balance of storage and size for most bedrooms.
• 4 door: great for couples or anyone with a large wardrobe of clothes.
• 5, 6 and 8 door: maximum storage for large rooms, often with drawers and mirrors included.

3. Mirrors save space and add light

A full or half mirror door means you do not need a separate mirror, and it makes the room look bigger and brighter.

4. Choose a colour that suits your room

White and grey keep a room fresh and modern, black adds a bold look, and oak and walnut bring warmth. Pick a finish that matches your bed and bedside tables.
