I have a built in wardrobe in my 1980's terrace house. When we moved in the previous occupants had taken out the sliding wardrobe doors. Height of opening is 205cm and width 135cm. I can't seem to find any doors from local diy stores that could fit and carpentors have quoted over £300 can anyone advise me where to get doors and how to fit. The track is no longer there. :roll:
Thanks for the advise but i have looked at their web site and they are quite expensive aswell. I might have to except it's going to cost me an arm and a leg to replace!!!!!!
Might be cheaper to alter the frame to make it fit a DIY sized door.
You'll probably only have to lower the height by securing a new cross member at the correct hight from the floor. You'll need to remove the existing architrave and alter it to fit and fill in the gap above with a bit of plasterboard, filler and then redecorate etc.
yes i think your right, i'm going to get a tradesman to supply and fit. I don't think i would be able to buy doors of that size from a shop and i think they would be fiddly to fit. Thanks all!!!!!!!!!!
