About fitted wardrobes in Greenwich
Rail heights are set for the clothes they hold. A tall section suits long coats and dresses, while two rails, one over the other, suit shirts and jackets. We plan for the people using it too, so the top rail is within comfortable reach. We make fitted wardrobes from birch plywood and moisture-resistant MDF with a spray-painted or hand-painted finish, and the usual reasons to get in touch are condensation behind a wardrobe on an outside wall and several odd pieces where one run of storage would do.
However carefully a piece is made in the workshop, it still has to meet the room, and fitting day is where that happens. Walls in older homes are rarely flat or square, so each edge that meets a wall is scribed to follow it, until the line is tight. How long the fitting itself takes depends on the length of the run, the doors and what goes inside, and the fitting days are set out in your quote.
- You get in touch about fitted wardrobes for your bedroom, with a rough idea of what you need to hang and fold.
- We visit to measure up and plan the doors, rails, shelves and drawers with you. Hinged or sliding doors are part of that conversation.
- We send a written quote with the layout, materials and finish, ready for you to read through.
- The wardrobes are made in sections in our workshop. We use moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood.
- Fitting day: the wardrobes go in, are levelled and scribed, and the doors are hung.
How our quotes work
Every piece is quoted for your room after the design visit. Bigger pieces use more board and take longer to make and fit, so size comes first. Doors, drawers, internal fittings and the finish make up most of the rest.

Fitted wardrobes across Greenwich: local notes
Across Greenwich, from Plumstead, Eltham and Woolwich outwards, we design and fit fitted wardrobes. External walls can be colder than internal ones, so ventilation behind and inside the furniture helps avoid condensation. Each wall is checked so the fixings suit it.
The biggest shares of homes in Greenwich were built since 2000 (about 26%) and before 1919 (about 22%), based on the Valuation Office Agency’s 2025 council tax data. We take that into account at the measuring visit, since older and newer walls take different fixings. A quarter or more of the homes in Greenwich (about 26%) were built since 2000, based on the Valuation Office Agency’s 2025 council tax data. Bedrooms in homes built since 2000 tend to be compact, with stud walls, so fitted pieces use the full height and are fixed into the studs. About 43% of households in Greenwich live in purpose-built flats, going by Census 2021 figures from the ONS. For a flat, fitted wardrobes are made in sections sized for the stairs, the lift and the doors. Many blocks have rules on lift booking and working hours, so check with the managing agent before fitting day.
The ULEZ has covered every London borough since August 2023, and TfL’s red routes have strict stopping rules, so we plan access to your home in Greenwich ahead of fitting day.
Plumstead: For a family home near South Rise Primary School, hanging rails set low at first can be raised later, as children get taller. If you live in a flat close to Plumstead station, it is useful to book the lift and tell the concierge before fitting day.
Could you do it yourself?
Long shelves are where off-the-shelf often struggles. How much a shelf bends depends on its span, depth and load, and long runs need a thicker shelf, a lip along the front or a support. We design shelves with that in mind.
Where bespoke earns its keep is in rooms that are not square. Older London rooms tend to have leaning walls, sloping floors and alcoves of different widths.
What affects the price in Greenwich
We quote each job after the design visit, because no two rooms are the same. This is what makes the difference:
- Parking and unloading on your street
- Doors and drawers, and how many
- The overall size of the piece
- Stairs, lifts and the route to the room
There is no price list, because every piece is designed for one room. Instead, we measure, go through the design and then quote in writing, with the materials and finish set out. To start, send us a few details through our contact form.
Before the design visit
Some details help us understand the job before we visit. When you contact us, it is useful to send:
- Rough sizes, even if they’re only to the nearest few centimetres
- What you’d like to store or use the space for
- Photos of the whole wall or room, including the floor and ceiling
- Radiators, sockets, pipes or meters on or near the wall

Practical tips
Fresh paintwork takes a while to cure fully, so go gently with it for a while. Beyond that, these tips help:
- Let us know about any damp you have seen on bedroom walls
- Decide what goes on shelves and what goes in drawers
- Move furniture away from the wardrobe wall ahead of time
- Ask your electrician about moving sockets early
Fill the rails gradually and spread the weight along them. Heavy coats are best on a short rail or near a support, so the rail stays straight.
Make sure vents at the top or bottom of the wardrobe are not blocked. Look out for a musty smell or spots on clothes.
Why people ask for fitted wardrobes in Greenwich
A finished loft conversion often leaves a new bedroom with sloping walls and no storage. Storage built into the slope uses space that would otherwise go to waste.
Common reasons to get in touch include:
- A bedroom that never feels tidy
- Empty alcoves in the bedroom
- Clothes piled on chairs and in spare rooms
- Not enough hanging space
Flats, conversions and leaseholders
Mansion blocks and purpose-built blocks often have house rules about lifts, entry systems and when trades can come in. Let us know about them during the design visit, and we will plan the fitting around them.
A lot of London’s terraced houses are now converted flats, and that often means a shared hallway and a tight turn on the stairs. We plan the size of each section around it, after measuring the route during the design visit.
Your questions about fitted wardrobes in Greenwich
Do I need to be at home on fitting day?
Someone needs to be there to let us in. After that, you do not need to stay in the room.
Do I choose the paint colour?
You choose it. The paint colour is agreed with you.
Do you work on Saturdays?
Yes, by arrangement. If a Saturday works better for you, say so when you contact us.
Where is the furniture made?
It’s made in our workshop, to the sizes taken during the design visit. Then we bring it to your home and fit it.
What if my bedroom floor is not level?
We allow for it from the start. The wardrobe is set level with a plinth or adjustable feet and scribed to the walls.
Do I need planning permission for fitted furniture?
Not normally. Conservation area controls are mainly about the outside of buildings, and furniture inside a house does not normally need it. Listed buildings are different: check with the council’s conservation officer first.
Should I send photos?
Yes. Pictures help us understand the room before the design visit, along with rough sizes. It’s useful to show radiators, sockets and anything else on the wall.
