General Questions

How much do sliding door wardrobes cost?

The cost depends on the size of the wardrobe, the chosen door style and finish, and the internal storage configuration. We provide a free home survey and quotation so that the proposed design can be tailored to your room, requirements and budget.


Do you offer a free home survey?

Yes. We provide a free, no-obligation home survey to measure the available space, discuss design and storage options, and advise on a suitable wardrobe layout.


Can your wardrobes be made to fit awkward spaces?

Yes. Our made-to-measure approach can accommodate many alcoves, chimney breasts, sloping ceilings, loft rooms and unusual layouts. We will assess the space during the home survey and explain the most practical options.


What styles of sliding door wardrobes do you offer?

We offer a range of contemporary and traditional options, including the Shaker and Oxford ranges, mirrored doors and different panel combinations. Colours, finishes and configurations can be selected to complement your room.


How long does installation take?

Installation time depends on the size and complexity of the project. Many straightforward installations can be completed within one or two days, and an estimated timescale will be discussed before installation is arranged.


Do your wardrobes come with a guarantee?

Yes. Chris Ford sliding door wardrobes are supplied with a 10-year guarantee, providing reassurance about the quality of the product and installation.


Design and Customisation Questions

Can I customise the inside of my wardrobe?

Yes. The internal layout can be planned around your individual storage needs, with options such as hanging space, shelving, drawers and dedicated storage sections.


Can I choose the colour and finish of my wardrobe doors?

Yes. You can choose from a range of colours, woodgrain effects, glass finishes and mirrored options. Samples can be discussed during the design consultation to help you select a finish that suits your décor.


Are mirrored doors available?

Yes. Mirrored sliding doors are available and can provide a practical full-length mirror while helping a room feel lighter and more spacious. Full-mirror and combination-panel designs can be considered.


Can I mix different colours and materials?

Yes. Subject to the chosen range and available options, different panel colours, finishes and mirrored sections can be combined to create a more individual design.


Can I choose the internal layout of my wardrobe?

Yes. The internal configuration can be tailored to your needs, including different combinations of hanging rails, shelving, drawers and other practical storage areas.


Can you match my existing bedroom furniture?

We can recommend colours and finishes that coordinate with your existing furniture, flooring and décor. An exact match may depend on the age and finish of the existing furniture, but complementary options can usually be suggested.


Can wardrobes be designed around TVs, dressing tables or other furniture?

In many cases, yes. Bespoke layouts can be considered around room features and existing furniture, and may incorporate elements such as dressing areas, shelving or additional storage where the available space permits.


What door styles are available?

Options include the Shaker and Oxford ranges, together with contemporary, mirrored and panelled designs. The available colour, panel and finish choices allow the overall appearance to be personalised.


Can I see the design before I order?

The proposed layout, finishes and storage requirements will be discussed with you before an order is finalised, helping to ensure that you understand and are happy with the agreed design.


Can sliding door wardrobes be designed for small bedrooms?

Yes. Sliding doors do not need space to swing out into the room, making them particularly useful in smaller bedrooms. A made-to-measure layout can help maximise storage while maintaining practical access.


Can you create floor-to-ceiling wardrobes?

Yes, where the room and installation conditions allow. A floor-to-ceiling design can make better use of the available height and create a more integrated fitted appearance.
