Ask about fitted wardrobes in Morden
Questions we’re often asked
Does a conservation area in or near Morden affect fitted furniture?
Not normally. Conservation area controls are mostly concerned with the outside of buildings, so fitted furniture inside a house doesn’t normally need planning permission. Listed buildings are different, as works inside that affect their character can require listed building consent from the council. The council’s planning or conservation team can tell you if in doubt.
Can parking be tricky on fitting day in Morden?
It depends on the street, as many London boroughs run controlled parking zones. Depending on the street, a visitor permit, a paid bay or a bay suspension through the council may be needed, and suspensions often need notice. Let us know what parking is near you at the measuring visit, so we can plan the day around it.
How long will the fitting take?
The time on site depends on how many wardrobes there are and how the room is shaped, and we confirm the fitting days in your quote. We will talk you through what to expect beforehand.
Can I choose the layout inside the wardrobe?
The inside is planned around your clothes. It can include long and double hanging, shelves, drawers and space for shoes. We talk it through at the measuring visit.
Which boards do you build with?
We build with moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, depending on the part and the design. Your quote sets out the materials.
Do you cover areas outside London?
No. We work in London and nowhere else, across all the boroughs and the City of London.
Fitted wardrobes in Morden: what you get
The inside matters as much as the doors. We plan the mix of long hanging, double hanging, shelves and drawers around your clothes, so coats and dresses have room and shirts don’t waste height. It is worth noting the clothes you reach for most before the design visit. We make fitted wardrobes from birch ply and moisture-resistant MDF, painted by hand or sprayed, and the usual reasons to get in touch are a sloping ceiling that’s hard to use and clothes with nowhere proper to go.
In a 1930s semi, the main bedroom often sits over the front room and its bay, so fitted storage typically goes on the walls either side while the bay stays open. Around Morden, a big part of the housing is interwar, semi-detached or detached, so it’s a room shape worth planning for. We measure every wall, even where the room looks square.
The written quote puts the design visit in writing: the layout, what goes inside, the materials used and the finish. If you’d like to change anything, it’s easier before the furniture is made.

Why bespoke in Morden?
Large flat-pack wardrobes can be hard to build in a small bedroom. We make fitted wardrobes in sections sized to the route into your home, then put together in the room. Off-the-shelf units come in set widths, so a run along a wall normally ends with a gap, which fitted furniture avoids. It can also go up to the ceiling rather than stopping short.
Getting to the room affects the job as well. Narrow halls, tight stairs or a small lift may mean the furniture is made in more sections, and that’s part of the price. Because every job is different, the cost is set out in a written quote after the visit.
What you get with us
- Saturday visits and fitting by arrangement
- Moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood
- A spray or hand-painted finish
- Designed for the room you have

Bedroom storage in Morden
The biggest shares of homes in the streets around Morden were built between 1919 and 1939 (about 84%) and between 1945 and 1972 (about 5%), on the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures for 2025. For carpentry, the era of a house is a useful clue to how square its rooms are and what its walls are made of. Morden is partly covered by the Upper Morden Conservation Area, one of the conservation areas recorded by Historic England. Being in a conservation area mainly affects changes to the outside of a building, and fitted furniture inside a house doesn’t normally need planning permission. Your council can advise if you’re unsure. Red routes, run by TfL, have strict rules on stopping and loading. If your home in Morden is on or near a main road, tell us during the design visit. It lets us plan the stop before fitting day.
If you live in a flat close to St Helier station, check any building rules on lifts and working hours early, and the sections will be sized for the way in. If your home is as old as some of the listed buildings nearby, such as Church of St Lawrence, original features like shutters, panelling and fireplaces are worth designing around. If your own home is listed, check with the council before fixing into original features. For a family home near Morden Primary School, the inside of fitted wardrobes can be laid out with adjustable shelves, so the space keeps up as children grow.
Morden is in the London Borough of Merton, about 2 miles north of Wimbledon. Anywhere in Morden, it works the same way: a design visit, a quote in writing, furniture made at our workshop and fitting in your home. We list Morden among 20 places we cover in Merton.
Design visits and fitting in SM4, SM3 and SW20 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. We cover homes on streets like London Road, Epsom Road and Holne Chase, along with the roads around them, whether you want fitted wardrobes or another piece made for the room. Morden is near the B279; on busy main roads, unloading fitted wardrobes takes a little planning. Neighbouring places we cover for fitted wardrobes include Lower Morden (1 mile south-west), Sutton Common (1 mile south-east) and North Cheam (2 miles south). Across the rest of Merton, our area takes in Wimbledon (2 miles north), Colliers Wood (3 miles north-east), Eastfields (3 miles north-east), South Wimbledon (2 miles north), Merton Abbey (2 miles north-east) and Crooked Billet (2 miles north-west). Morden is one of the larger places we cover in Merton.
Around Morden
We fit furniture in homes around Merton College, Lord Nelson pub and Glenthorne High School. There’s a railway station in Morden itself: St Helier station. Nearby you will also find St. Anthony's Hospital (1 mile south-west) and Wandle Industrial Museum (1.8 miles east). Not far away are Morden Park (park).
How fitting works for fitted wardrobes
Every fitting follows the same order: floors are protected, the sections come in, everything is levelled, scribed to the walls, fixed and finished. At the end, we tidy up and go over the work with you. The time the fitting takes depends on the size of the wardrobes and the number of doors, and the fitting days are set out in your quote. Semis and detached houses often have a front path or a side gate, which can make carrying in easier. We measure the path, any steps and the front door as part of the route. Floors are covered from the door to the room, and the sections are assembled in place.

Boards, parts and paint
Hanging rails
We place rails at the heights your clothes need: a high rail for long items and double rails for shorter ones.
Doors and drawer fronts
Doors can be plain, panelled or shaped to suit the room. You choose a colour that matches or contrasts with the room.
What it costs
What it costs comes down to the materials and the time involved. That depends on:
- Doors and drawers, and how many
- Stairs, lifts and the route to the room
- The width and height of the space
- The internal fittings
The inside of the furniture affects the price as well: rails, shelves, drawers and dividers all add work. We’ll talk through what you need inside at the measuring visit, and the quote follows.
Before the design visit
Getting some details early makes the visit more useful. Where you can, include:
- Approximate measurements of the space
- What kind of home it is, and which floor the room is on
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Anything in the way, like radiators, sockets, switches, a boiler or meters
The price comes in a written quote, worked out from the measurements and the design you choose. Each room is different, so we quote after seeing it, once the room is measured and the design talked through. To arrange a visit, fill in our short enquiry form.
