The project:
Update 3 door back to back wardrobe that separated 2 bedrooms so that it became a more usaable storage.
The wardrobe was totally removed to reveal a clean space. An 'L' shape Configuration for a walk-in storage, but also considered that the out sliding doors would need to be replaced with a wall for shelving fixtures.
A fixed wall needs bracing, so it was decided to leave the bracing exposed so that the sliding doors could still be used.
