This large walk-in robe demonstrates how to achieve a great look on a modest budget.

The project

 

I wanted to share my D.I.Y walk-in robe to show that anything is achievable. The budget for the first phase of our renovations didn’t allow for custom cabinetry so I set out to create my own custom look.

The wardrobes are from the Flexi Storage range at Bunnings. The timber section at the top is actually 3mm Melamine Colourboard in the Natural Wood colour.

The doors are part of the Flexi Storage range. You buy them separately to the wardrobe carcass. 

 

More storage inspiration for your home

 

Experienced Bunnings Workshop member JoeAzza gave his wardrobe a stylish new look and greater functionality by replacing three wide doors with six narrower ones.

Joe also made these stunning glass-fronted overhead laundry cupboards, which have been extremely popular with the Bunnings Workshop community.

@grounded_design The wardrobes look fantastic! We’re about to move into a new place that has no wardrobes so this is really inspiring! Thanks for sharing!

Hi @m-ivanov,

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is wonderful to have you with us.

 

You can see in Joeazza's project Replacement wardrobe doors, that the doors he made were custom, using lengths of pine and MDF.

 

Unfortunately, there is not currently a similar product in the Flexi Storage range.

 

If you'd like to give this project a try, have a look at what Joeazza has done and let us know if you have any questions, I'm sure we can help you out.

 

Jacob

Kind of a Big Deal

Hi @m-ivanov , the door panels for my were DIY I made myself at home, no handles were used , just a push to open part available from Bunnings, hinges were standard cupboard hinges.

Hi @m-ivanov , just to add to my previus post

I used these hinges and push to open device instead of door handles
