Homeowner project request
Fitted Wardrobe quotes in Ireland
Request fitted wardrobes designed around the space and storage you actually need. Describe the room, the available wall and the items you want to organise before choosing a door style. A useful first brief can be simple: more hanging space, accessible drawers, storage around a sloping ceiling or an awkward alcove.
You post the job. Interested independent businesses may respond. You choose whether to hire; responses and availability are not guaranteed.
Define the work you want priced
Use this request for measured, fitted storage rather than assembly of a freestanding flat-pack wardrobe. Ask the business whether it offers design, manufacture and installation together. A room survey should establish final dimensions and restrictions before the layout is treated as an order-ready drawing.
Internal storage first
List long and short hanging, folded clothing, shoes and drawers as separate needs. State who will use the wardrobe and which items should be reachable without a step. A wide exterior can conceal a layout that does not make useful space for your belongings.
Door and room clearances
Compare hinged, sliding and open-front options in the actual room. Nearby beds, radiators, sockets, windows and access routes affect the layout. Ask how access to each compartment works when doors are open and where handles or tracks would sit.
Room-specific joinery
Flag sloping ceilings, uneven walls, existing skirting and any areas that must remain accessible. Do not cover damp or an unresolved building problem with new cabinets. Ask which room preparation is excluded from the joiner's price and arrange it before installation.
What to include in your request
- Give approximate width, height and depth, identifying slopes and obstructions without treating these as manufacturing measurements.
- Create a short storage list, including the approximate number of drawers and hanging sections wanted.
- Photograph the wall and surrounding room from a normal standing position.
- State your preferred finish, whether decoration is planned and any apartment or stair access restrictions.
Keep personal contact details out of descriptions and photos. Add them only in the dedicated contact fields when posting.
Compare the complete quote
Give each business the same project information. Check the total and what is included, excluded or provisional before choosing a proposal.
- Carcass and interior
- Specify the construction, shelves, drawers, rails and accessories. Compare the exact internal arrangement, not just the number of exterior doors or a price per metre.
- Fronts and fittings
- Name the finish, handles, hinges or tracks and any mirrors. Ask how edges and visible side panels will be finished and whether hardware options change the total.
- Survey and installation
- Confirm final measuring, delivery, installation, fillers and scribing. Identify removal of an old wardrobe, disposal, room repairs and electrical changes as included or separately arranged work.

Agree the sequence before booking
Agree a drawing or written layout before manufacture, showing dimensions, compartments and the door arrangement. Check where the contents of the room will be stored during fitting and who moves heavy furniture. Keep a dated record of finish and hardware selections so substitutions can be discussed clearly.
Ask about lead time after the survey, what triggers manufacture and when payment stages fall due. Confirm how a delayed component, damaged panel or inaccurate opening will be handled. A fitted project may involve workshop preparation and a later installation rather than continuous work in your home.
At handover
- Open every door and drawer and check the installed compartments against the approved layout.
- Ask how adjustable shelves, tracks and hinges should be maintained and whether later adjustments are included.
- Retain finish references and instructions for cleaning mirrors, doors and internal surfaces.
Fitted Wardrobe: your questions answered
Do I need a wardrobe design before requesting quotes?
No. Describe the available space and the storage problems you want to solve. Ask whether a measured survey and design are included, and whether there is a charge for that stage before manufacture is agreed.
Are sliding doors always better for a small room?
They are one option, not an automatic answer. Compare access to the compartments, track depth and the room arrangement with the designer. Hinged doors, sliding doors and open sections can suit different storage needs.
Can a wardrobe fit under a sloping ceiling?
Ask for a survey and a drawing that shows the usable storage, not just the outer shape. Roof slopes can limit hanging height and door travel, so the internal design should be checked before a price is finalised.
Will the installer remove my old wardrobe?
Only if arranged. Specify whether it is freestanding or fitted and ask about dismantling, disposal, wall repairs and floor damage. Do not assume those tasks are included in the manufacture of the new furniture.
Can sockets be hidden behind the new units?
Tell the designer where every service point is and what access is needed. Any electrical alteration should be separately assessed and arranged with an appropriately registered contractor rather than improvised during cabinet installation.
How do I compare two wardrobe designs?
Compare their usable hanging space, drawer construction, shelf layout, door fittings, material and finish. A cheaper design with fewer internal fittings is not the same proposal, even if both fill the same wall.
