Find your ideal Schreiber sliding wardrobe

Go for one of our complete sliding wardrobe packages and create a fitted bedroom that's totally you.

You can pick from three stylish designs and customise with your own choice of sliding doors and innovative accessories for a smartly co-ordinated look.

Follow our simple four-step guide to help you choose your perfect sliding wardrobe package.

Step 1 - Measure and plan for your fitted bedroom

It's a wise idea to take time to plan your fitted bedroom and measure up very carefully.

To help you, we've got some graph paper here that will come in very handy for your planning. Just download and print! And don't forget, we offer a full professional planning and design service in store.

Step 2 - Choose the size and finish of your sliding wardrobe

First decide whether you want a two-door or a three-door wardrobe run (2.04m and 3.04m respectively). Next choose between our three wood finishes: Shaker Oak, Shaker Ivory and Roma Walnut.

All sliding wardrobe packages come with everything you need to make your sliding wardrobe - colour-matched end panels, a complete set of hardware and a soft close mechanism that prevents damage to your doors.

By the way, all sliding wardrobe finishes are colour-matched to our wide range of bedside cabinets and chests. How's that for seamless design throughout your bedroom?

Something important you should know...

Cornices and plinths from Schreiber fitted bedroom wardrobes are not compatible with Schreiber sliding wardrobes - so be careful when you order!

Step 3 - Choose your sliding doors

Now take a look at your sliding wardrobe door fronts. All our doors are 1m wide. That means you need to order either two or three depending on the size option you decided on when selecting your carcass.

There are nine ranges to choose from: three wood panelled doors, three wood and glass panelled doors, two solid high gloss doors and one solid mirror door.

Why not try mixing and matching styles to create a very personalised look? All doors come with their own uniquely designed handle so you don't have to worry about ordering your handles.


Step 4 - Choose your accessories

And some final advice...

Because of the size and weight of the sliding wardrobe doors this is definitely an assembly job for two people!

Completion time takes anything from two hours to one day depending on the complexity of the bedroom you order.

All sliding wardrobes come with full assembly instructions. If you need help with instructions just call the customer helpline.
