During a home renovation, décor or style change, sliding doors are sometimes overlooked as a source of storage or as a space-saving facility. Often it is assumed that these doors can only be used in the bedroom or dressing room, but this is not the case. Sliding wardrobes are extremely versatile and can be used anywhere in the home to create additional space. 

Let’s explore where you could install sliding wardrobe doors to maximise your property’s potential.  

Kitchen

Depending on the size of your kitchen, it can sometimes be hard to fit the optimal number of cabinets needed to house cookware, dinnerware, staple foods and more. A built-in floor-to-ceiling cupboard with sliding doors can therefore bring a stylish look to your kitchen while giving you the space you need to store all the essentials. 

You could even use a sliding wardrobe door to hide away your pantry! Especially if you don’t like all your things being on show when you have guests over. Why not match the sliding wardrobe door panels to your existing kitchen furniture! Our panels are available in a wide range of colours including Pure White, Starlight Black, Soft White and Brown Orleans Oak.

Room Divider

Sliding doors don’t have to be used to cover up storage units. They can also separate a room without the excessive cost and intrusive method of building a partition wall. They look amazing, bring light and space when opened, and offer privacy and seclusion to two rooms when closed.

Use any of our contemporary sliding door designs to section off a specific area of your home and give your property a new identity for a fraction of the cost today. 

Home Office

Home offices tend to be located in the smallest room of the house, so storage space is hard to come by. A bespoke storage solution can house everything necessary for a home office while encompassing the desk and workspace within its design.

The benefit of using fitted cupboards or wardrobes with a sliding door is that you don’t need the rebated access that a traditional hinged door requires. Our experts can also tailor your sliding doors to the room’s dimensions. This is better for rooms that are awkward in shape and will allow you to maximise the space that would otherwise be lost with the use of stand-alone units.

Secret Reading Nook

Why not transform a wardrobe space into a hidden reading nook? Settle down with a great book away from any distractions. A sliding wardrobe door can hide the entrance to your reading nook, creating a small reading sanctuary for a bit of ‘me time’.

If you have additional space in your home this will make a great hidden feature which can be used by both adults and children.
