Whether you have existing cabinetry that needs a bit of refurbishment or are planning a whole new unit, you might be thinking: How can I make my built-in wardrobes look better?
As experts in this field, we offer a spectacular array of beautiful colours, finishes, handles, door types and materials to choose from that will elevate your custom built-in wardrobes to a whole new level.
And as all of our fitted wardrobes can be tailor-made to suit your exact needs, from storage requirements to filling even the most awkward spaces, there’s nothing we can’t do.
Here are some clever ideas that will help you spruce up your design, bringing elegance and a sense of style to your master bedroom.
Luxury built-in wardrobes can be fairly expansive and, after the bed, are usually the most prominent feature in your room. So having one that complements the rest of your aesthetics is essential.
If you want to infuse a sense of fun or brighten up the interior of your modern wardrobe, a fresh coat of paint is an excellent idea. For new installations we advise that you do this before the cabinetry is fitted, but if you’re dealing with an existing unit, remove the doors and as many of the storage systems as possible before you commence.
Think about whether you want it to contrast or complement your existing wall colour and choose a tone accordingly. If you would prefer something with a pattern, wallpaper is an equally good alternative.
At FCI London we have a wide range of beautiful door options available. Whether you are looking for sliding or hinged doors, wooden or mirrored finishes or a bespoke handle that will complete your ensemble in style, have a chat with one of our designers and we’ll find you the perfect match.

Tailor-made fittings provide more versatility than what you would find in shop-bought wardrobes, allowing you to select the exact number of rails, shelves, drawers, or storage baskets you require, so assess your needs and plan accordingly. Here are some tips:
In the interiors industry, contemporary mirrors are known to be one of the most effective ways of reflecting natural light in a room and will make your space look twice its size. Mirrored wardrobe doors can be tailored to almost any décor style with edging, etchings, colour, tinting and metallic finishes all within the realm of possibility.
If you’ve opted for a more traditional exterior wooden finish, then hanging mirrors on the inside of your door will create that all-important space illusion. It will also provide you with a full-length view of yourself when getting dressed. Likewise, it will eliminate the need for a freestanding mirror, saving you precious bedroom floor space.
One of the greatest advantages of installing custom built-in wardrobes is that you have the opportunity to include interior lighting, making it easier to see what you’re looking for. Here are 3 great options to choose from:
While custom cabinetry is designed to accommodate all your storage needs, you may not have enough room for absolutely everything, especially if you've inherited a previously built unit. So the answer is to be smart and focus on space-conscious solutions by utilizing every available inch.
Decorative hooks will maximise the storage capacity of a small wardrobe allowing you to hang accessories like belts, scarves, hats and ties on the inside of your door, and will help keep your surrounding space neat and tidy.
The whole point of a modern built-in wardrobe is to mitigate mess, so make sure that you use it to its full capacity and avoid unnecessary clutter in the rest of your room.
However, if it’s bursting at the seams then it might be time to have a clear-out and throw away everything you don’t use. We suggest doing this at least once a year as it will keep your clothing current and help you let go of any hoarding habits.
When commissioning a built-in wardrobe with FCI London, we always aim to create something that will take care of all your storage requirements and that looks exceptional too.
