Built in wardrobes with sliding doors  

Brilliant video bro. You make it look easy! And love the commentary…defo need more of it 😂👍🏽

If you fancy teaching my grandson (hes just passed his carpentry course) to build me a small wardrobe in my small bedroom id ne ever so grateful 😁😁😁 great vid btw 👍🏼

i love the look of that mdf and the simple clean approach you took here

Great job Lewis and an even better video

Excellent work!! Thank you so much for a video with not too many overwhelming details, just enough for a beginner to understand and follow. I have got a couple of queries if you don't mind helping with please. I am planning to fit a wardrobe in a similar space but on either sides of a chimney breast. The biggest problem is that I'm unable find a readymade wardrobe that fits the space. So a better option would be to go for a built in. One side of the wardrobe would need to project out a little bit and I'm not sure how to get that to look good. Also I'm planning for a folding door rather than sliding. would that be too different in terms of the frame you have shown here? Ta

Love the wardrobes I will be making the same in 2 bedrooms in my house

Thank you - this is exactly what I was looking for excellent craftsmanship

Excellent job Lewis you make it look easy ! Very well executed 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Great video. I'm about to install some sliding doors like this so it is good to be able to see what I'm getting into.

Thank you . This was brilliant.

Fantastic work man, amazing informative video...found it very useful. Keep them up 👏

Surely with boards that snug between walls you're likely to see bowing caused by expansion, i always think it's good practice to have a couple of millimetres breathing space?

Fantastic job, mate. I'll be doing something nearly identical next year only mine will be spanning an entire side of a 2m+ wall. The framing seems straightforward enough, but the sliding doors and rails shenanigans seems a little daunting.

looks great

Thanks for share 😘

Amazing video Do you know the best company who can do sliding doors made to measure for a fixed opening size?

great job just what i would do and a great video,well done

Great video ,thanks

You The best 😮😮😮

Good job bro, will attempt mine soon, well articulated job

Like the way you work ,good vid.

just starting this project today but the 2260 doors into 2480 and will have to but in a sub frame to hold the tracking. very informative , cheers.

great job man cheers 🍻

Nicely done.

Great job ..good to see some different techniques of building the wardrobes.. I use my festool 240 and it's brilliant .. only one downside re your new battery makita saw is you can't plug in to the hoover so every cut you have to switch hoover on/off by hand

Great video! Love your commentary and simple steps! I was wondering how you attached the frame piece that you attached the top runner to, to the ceiling?

Thanks for the video. Question: For the vertical divider in the middle of the closet, did you do anything special to fasten it to the floor? Toenails or screws?

Really love this video...you're great on them. Im going to try this even though I have very little DIY experience!

Clever video, glad I found you here. I’m a fellow carpenter Brit, living in Netherlands. May I ask how much you charged the client for the job? I still have some insecurities when quoting for jobs

Great job

Good job my friend excellent work

great video! my husband and I are considering doing this in our bedroom! Quick question, how much roughly did all of this cost?

Hi, great video thank you. I am going to attempt this in the next couple of months and this was very helpful. What wood do you use for the shelf and divider?

Nice job mate ,what where the plugs you where using? for blocking out the opening you seem to be screwing them in

Hi, This is a great video. You explained everything very clearly. How thick was the MDF you used?

Thanks bro

Looking to do my own wardrobe in our new house and this video looks like a perfect example. What thickness is the MDF you're using for the main shelf/divide?

Thanks for this. Great video. Will be following your lead :)

Brilliant thanks! Quick question - what height should the shelf be? What is the 'norm' that new housebuilders would install? Thanks!

you made it look easy , even for me lol

Great video mate. I’m looking to install these doors in my place. The ceiling height is 227.5. Can I put tracks straight into ceiling and floor?

Great work againbud

..and, how/do you fix the bottom of the dividing panel? Cheers!

top work nice

Hi Lewis, I couldn’t find the seperate video for the sliding doors, would you be able to point me in the right kt direction. Also, would you be able to tell me where you got the sliding roller track and wheels from? Thanks!

Very good, I'm planning to fit some Valla doors which are also 2260mm. Do you know how much (+/-mm) adjustment is in the door wheels; was planning to make the opening 2265mm (before the rails are fitted) and then take up the slack with adjustment, or would you recommend exactly 2260mm?

Hi just seen your channel great content, can you say what plugs you use for hollow plasterboard Cheers

How do I adjust the bottom parts

Great vid mate. If the doors are 2260 in height, what should the height of the opening be if you are adding the sliding rails?

Hello mate, thanks for the vidio it's brilliant. I got the same sort of cavity in my bedroom where I'm playing to do something very similar. I have a question for you, my floor is carpeted and I don't what to remove the carpet, what could I do?

Great job am looking the same thing but I need to see a free standing job as I don't have a corner, if that makes sense 🤔

Great job. Did you mention what kinda drywall anchors you used? I didn't catch that

Great job mate couldn't find the video regarding the door installation is there a link ? 👍

what glue are you using, it can't be wood glue since you are using it on the wall as well and there is no clamping used

Brilliant. This is exactly what I am trying to do. Quick question, is that just plain MDF you finished it with or did it have some sort of veneer on it? Keep up the good work!

I have carpet in my room and it’s upstairs probably same wooden floor.Please tell me if I can put the runners slates on the top of carpet?or need to remove carpet on that area

Useful video! Thanks. One question, how come you set it back from the alcove edge? Surely there was more space to be gained in there, by bringing the wardrobe face flush with the wall?

Nice job mate do you find much difference between the Makita and festool tracksaw I’ve got the festool but need another one just wondering what your thoughts are cheers

Looks lovely!! Where did you buy the doors from?

Firstly, I love the channel... I'm going to attempt this project in our bedroom. What thickness MDF are you using? cheers. Mark

Did you trim the MDF trim using the track saw?

I have 4 fitted wardrobes I'm planning to fit in my house. I can't afford getting professionals so I'm going to watch all your videos to gain the confidence. I'll buy a plunge saw any cheap ones your recommendation?

Great job this mate, looking at doing something similar myself, roughly what height did you do the cross rails and what screws did you use for the mdf?

Did u do the separate video for the rail and trackset, mate?

hi there i am about to do a similar thing just mine is about 2 meters long. Can I ask you something when screwing to the ceiling did you use anchors or some other device? You see i do now have any joists going at right angles to the wood piece I have to put across the ceiling. Thanks in advance

Hi buddy after watching this I’m going to go get them can you please tell how accurate does the width and height have to be when building it is the any wiggle room on the doors if I’m a couple of mil out

Great video. Do you know of any kits less the 2200mm high? I only have about 1800mm to play with

Where do you buy these mirror doors?? How would you decorate the MDF?? I have a small space for a wardrobe but I'm wanting to put a fitted wardrobe into the space 85mm any suggestions? Cheers

Where's that laser coming from XD? That's some nice product right there for leveling haha

Hi mate love the video, where did you buy the sliding door kit from, does this include the mirrored doors etc, also could i make the same kind of sliding wardrobes but with shaker style doors instead of mirrors. Cheers keep the vids coming, im learning a lot from you, top man.

Hi great video you when are you doing one on how to fit the door an how much would you allow in the hight for the doors , plus what kind of pin gun are you useing please . Many thanks Ram

Hi great video ur too good! I need the slide door parts...

Amazing video if u dont mind where did you get that doors thx

Love the video, going to try it. What kind of wood do you use? Many thanks.

Where did you buy the doors and track from?

hi there nice vidio easy to understund could you please send size of the door thanks

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Could you fit the bottom rail directly on carpet?

Hi ya! Thanks for the great video! Can bottom rails be screwed on top of the carpet?

Plasterboard screws???

How much does it cost to do that

Wicked video babe!!!! Xxxx

Where did you get the wood from

Hi mate great job ..can you tell me make of nail gun ?

How much did this cost for materials and labour? Thanks

Do you need to find joists for the head?

What did you charge for that build? If you don’t mind me asking?

My space is 137 length, could I still use these doors? Ty

Hi, were you screwing into a dry wall or masonary?

What nail gun did you use please

What wood do you use for the wardrobes?

In terms of painting, is it ever better to pre-paint pieces or prefill gaps to make decorating easier and cleaner?

Watching this thinking: we’ll that would take me 3 weeks of consideration and measuring; that but wouldn’t be square so id have to re-do the last week of work and figure out how to fix my shit measuring; oh the doors are pissed and sliding to the right… I’m moving house

How much would this cost the customer?

Just started and already I’m here looking for help. Thé alcôve goes over the stairs which had a horrible box over it which I’ve ripped out and now have to board that. Going forward I’ve never done this. Instructions may as well be in chinese. It says look at diagram but there ain’t no pictures. Mirrored glass, I hope by the end of the day it’s fitted and not broke

Buying and fitting

Like the music

Hi,thanks for the video, my opening for doing the same is 163 cm and depth is only 28cm,so I was going to build a stud frame on top front as ceiling is 2.45 and stud on end where it needs to be wider, and piece of timber up wall on opposite side,then plaster board and skim(I'm a plaster). If I make the finished opening width 1.5m and height from timber on the floor to underside of plastered top section of stud 2.26cm will that be correct ? Cheers

Where you located.
