We’ve made building your own custom wardrobe even easier. See the Cutshop® Wardrobe Hub for a catalogue of wardrobe types, layouts, styles and components - all in one place.

You’ve got a quote in your inbox for built-in wardrobes, and it has more digits than you expected. You’re standing in the doorway with a tape measure, looking at a perfectly ordinary wall, thinking: it’s basically just a big box. How does it cost that much?

A flat-pack wardrobe is one of the easiest purchases in the house to justify. It’s a few hundred dollars, it’s in stock, and it solves the problem this weekend rather than in six weeks. Nobody agonises over it. Which is exactly why almost nobody does the math on what happens next.

Flat-pack or custom? Which type of homeowner are you, and what does your choice of wardrobe tell people about your home? Be warned your run of the mill flat-pack wardrobe might be sending the wrong messages.
