Planning Your Sliding Wardrobe Door DIY Project With Swan Systems

Swan Systems Furniture Ltd

Sliding wardrobe doors can be a great addition to your bedroom. They are stylish, functional, very easy to use and install. They take up less space than hinged door wardrobes. They make the best use of the available space in your bedroom. Swan Systems Sliding Wardrobe Doors are used by many DIY enthusiasts and can be designed and purchased on their website.

If you plan to do it yourself, you first need to get all the interiors and fixings needed for installation. 
 

Choosing Sliding Wardrobe Doors

 

When it comes to DIY sliding wardrobes, you have a large number of options to choose from. You can find wardrobes in many different colours, designs, and sizes. You can take a look at all the options available and choose one based on your storage needs, budget and taste.

 

If you are on a small budget and looking for something simple yet elegant, flat panel sliding wardrobe doors or silver mirror sliding wardrobe doors can be a good choice for you. These doors are available in a variety of colours. You can choose one that suits your room’s colour theme.

 

If you are looking for wardrobe doors that combine the traditional look of hinged doors and the functionality of sliding doors, vinyl sculpted panel sliding doors may be the right choice for you. These doors have beautiful designs that remind you of traditional hinged bedroom doors. The Glendale and York are very popular designs.

 

If you are looking for something funky, you can go for coloured glass doors. These doors have a solid frame with a coloured glass insert. Both the frame and the glass insert are available in different colours. Depending on your choice, you can opt for soft colours, bright colours, or a combination of both.

 

Want something stylish and modern? Perhaps contemporary glass sliding doors would be the best choice. These doors come in floral and cut glass patterns and look stunningly beautiful. They are available in different colours and designs and blend well with all types of modern décor.

 

If you can afford to spend more, you can opt for designer mirror doors, or oriental designed sliding doors.

 

Installing Swan Systems Sliding Wardrobe Doors

 

If you are handy with tools and can follow instructions, you can easily install a Swan Sliding Wardrobe Door; take the DIY approach!

Once you have all the required items, you can get started with the installation process. If you plan to do it yourself, you first need to get all the interiors and fixings needed for installation. 

  • A sub-frame set to build the frame for the wardrobe doors. It consists of a set of wall scribes, floor plinth, cill and head (the track set).
  • A fixings kit to install the sub-frame successfully. It consists of screws, cover trim, aluminium channels, and a collection of packers. There are separate kits available for stud walls and brick walls.
  • Shelves, hanging rails, drawers, and dividing panels to structure the storage space of the wardrobe.
  • Soft close units to ensure the doors close softly.
  • You may also need an end panel in case you do not have a wall-to-wall space to install your wardrobe. The panel is essential if you have a wall-to-window or wall-to-doorway space.
