Bespoke wardrobe doors would be a huge improvement but not necessarily that appropriate. How to know the difference so you do not end up spending more than necessary:
If you do have a taste for custom doors:
Your opening isn’t standard. In older homes, the plaster walls are almost always slightly wavy in places or ceilings have a gentle slope to them and it is also not uncommon for floors that long ago settled or were never constructed quite perfectly level.
You’ve got an awkward space. Alcoves, chimney breasts, loft rooms and eaves storage all require doors tailor-made to specific widths and heights. For Made to measure wardrobe doors, contact Happy Doors.
If you are changing a door on a fitted wardrobe that was built to a non-standard size, you’ll need to work with Made to measure wardrobe doors for an updated look.
You want a certain look or angle. Mass-produced units which use shaker panels, woodgrain and high-gloss or mirrored sections also often have colour-matched paint finishes where as made-to-measure makes ideas much more straight forward.
When you may not need them:
Your closet is really a standard component. If it is a common unit (e.g. from many flat-pack ranges), standard-size replacement doors may be an option.
This is a hardware issue, not doors. Sticking, sagging or rattling may be alleviated by new hinges, runners or a track adjustment.
You have a bedroom refurbishment coming soon full scale. You want something relatively simple and inexpensive if you are going to replace the entire wardrobe in a year or two anyway.
Quick tip before you decide:
Measure by taking three measurements of the opening (top, centre, and bottom) Custom measured doors are neater in appearance when the numbers are accurate.
