How Wide Is a Double Wardrobe?

A double wardrobe measures between 900mm and 1100mm wide in most cases, with 1000mm the figure you will meet most often in British homes, but the term refers to two doors rather than a fixed dimension. This guide sets out the standard width, depth and height ranges alongside the internal rail length you can realistically expect once side panels and any shelf column are deducted. It explains why depth is the measurement that catches people out, since a garment on a hanger needs around 550mm of clear space, and how much floor clearance hinged doors require compared with sliding ones. There is a comparison of single, double, triple and four door widths, honest guidance on whether a double is enough for two people, and practical notes on measuring the wall run for skirting boards and radiators, levelling the unit and securing a tall carcass safely. Internal layouts, mirrored doors and flat pack assembly are covered at the end....
