I'm considering upgrading two built in wardrobes from swinging doors to sliders. One is 3 doors wide and the other 2. They are a pretty old school design and not a standard shape. The larger one is a rhomboid in plan with trapeziod shelves at one end. There should be space between the shelves and the wall to accommodate the tracks (13mm). My main question is if I order doors through Bunnings will they be customised to fit?
The 3 door wardrobe has a post for a door attachment. This will need to be removed for a sliding door, along with the wood doorstop to fit the top guide. Some remedial woodwork repair would be required but is not a deal breaker.
Each door is 720 mm wide, the post is 40 mm. Measurements for the wardrobe entry are top 2208 mm, bottom 2206 mm and the height is 2055 mm. The base is carpet laid on a slab.
The wardrobe contains bunnings kit wire mesh drawers. The placement of these makes a 2 door slider system difficult as they could not be accessed. At a pinch they could be relocated to the left side of the wardrobe to accommodate 2 doors however this would leave a triangular void. 3 doors would probably be a better solution.
So.. Is it feasible to fit sliding doors into a wardrobe like this and would they be cut to size?
