How to Choose the Right Wardrobe Door

Wardrobe doors are an incredibly important element of your bedroom and your home’s overall interior design.
Afterall, our bedroom wardrobe doesn’t just have functional value, it also contributes significantly to the overall aesthetics of your room.

At Flexi Renovations, we offer a diverse range of wardrobe doors to suit various styles and needs. Through this comprehensive guide, we aim to help you choose the right wardrobe doors for your home, ensuring a perfect blend of functionality and style.

Step One, is Understanding the Space You Have

The first step in choosing the right wardrobe doors is understanding the space you’re working with. Different rooms have different requirements, and the type of door you choose should complement the room’s layout and purpose.

Bedroom Wardrobes:

For bedroom wardrobes, consider how much space you have. Sliding doors are an excellent choice for smaller bedrooms where space is at a premium. They do not require additional space to open, making them perfect for rooms where a bed or other furniture might obstruct a hinged door.

Walk-in Wardrobes:

These kinds of robes can benefit from open designs, but incorporating doors can provide privacy and a more polished look. Mirrored doors can be particularly beneficial in these spaces, doubling as full-length mirrors and making the room feel larger and brighter.

Hallway Wardrobes:

In hallways or narrow spaces, sliding or top hung trackless doors are ideal. They ensure a clear thoroughfare without taking up space when opened, maintaining the sleek and modern feel of your home.

Choosing the Right Material and Finish

The material and finish of your wardrobe doors can dramatically affect the room’s look and feel. At Flexi Renovations, we offer a wide range of materials to match any decor.

Glass Doors:

Glass doors are an elegant and contemporary choice. Clear glass doors are ideal for modern homes, allowing you to see your clothing and accessories, which adds a chic, contemporary look. Frosted glass doors provide privacy while still maintaining a light, airy feel. Available in various designs, frosted glass doors can enhance the room’s decor. Mirrored doors are perfect for making small rooms appear larger and eliminating the need for additional mirrors.

Wood Grain Doors:

Wood grain doors bring a natural, warm feel to any room. They are versatile and can match various decor styles, from rustic to modern. At Flexi, we offer a range of colours and finishes to suit your preferences, ensuring that your wardrobe doors blend seamlessly with your room’s aesthetic.

Panel Doors:

Panel doors add a sleek, modern touch to your room. Available in a variety of styles, they can be customised to fit the aesthetic of your home. These doors are a great option if you want to add a touch of sophistication and modernity to your wardrobe.

Aluminium Doors:

Ideal for areas prone to moisture, such as bathrooms and laundries, aluminium doors are durable and modern. They are resistant to humidity and water damage, making them perfect for these environments. Aluminium doors enable more complex designs, providing both functionality and style.

Carved Doors:

For a traditional look, carved doors are an excellent choice. They complement decor styles such as Hamptons, seaside, or country house themes, adding a unique and personalised touch to your room. Carved doors can bring a sense of elegance and craftsmanship to your space.

Gloss and Matt Finishes:

The finish on your wardrobe doors can also significantly impact the room’s overall look. Gloss finishes add a touch of luxury and modernity, reflecting light and making a room feel larger. In contrast, matt finishes offer a subtle, sophisticated look, providing a smooth, understated elegance that can complement various decor styles.

Coloured Doors:

Flexi Renovations offers a wide variety of colours to match your walls, flooring, and room accessories. Whether you prefer bold, vibrant hues or soft, muted tones, we have options to suit your style. Coloured doors can add a playful or dramatic element to your room, depending on your choice of colour.

Optimising Functionality

While aesthetics are important, the functionality of your wardrobe doors should not be overlooked. Here are some tips to ensure your doors are both beautiful and practical:

Soft Close Mechanisms:

All our hinged wardrobe doors come with a soft close function. This ensures quiet closing and protects little fingers from being caught.

Smooth Glide Function:

Our sliding and top hung trackless doors feature a smooth glide function, making them easy to open and close. This is particularly useful in high-traffic areas where ease of access is vital.

Customisation:

Consider your specific storage needs and customise your wardrobe doors accordingly. Flexi Renovations offers a variety of customization options, ensuring your doors fit perfectly with your lifestyle and requirements.

Matching with Existing Decor:

To create a cohesive look, choose wardrobe doors that complement your existing decor. Here are some tips:
• Consistent Colour Scheme: Ensure the colour of your wardrobe doors matches or complements the colour scheme of your room. This creates a harmonious look and makes the space feel more unified.
• Matching Materials: Choose materials that match other elements in the room, such as the flooring or furniture. This helps tie the room together and enhances the overall aesthetic.
• Personal Touches: Add personal touches such as handles, knobs, or decorative elements that reflect your style.

These small details can make a big difference in the overall look of your wardrobe doors.
