How to add wardrobe sliding doors?

Question

Hi everyone, I need some advice,

I’m looking to order sliding doors from Bunnings,does anyone know the best way to go about this? Should I order online, or do I need to go in-store to arrange it?

Also, I’m planning to install the sliding doors on that wooden slab, is it possible to hang a sliding door track directly off the slab? Has anyone done something similar, and what things would I need?

I have attached the photo.

Thanks Eric, I was planning to do the job by myself but seems I have to hire professional. Appreciate your reply.

Hello @tajinder9

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about your wardrobe door project.

It appears that your wardrobe frame is not deep enough, and it will need to be modified so that there will be something for the top and bottom rails to anchor onto. If the doors are installed too close, it will hit your clothing and impede the function of your wardrobe doors. I propose going to your local store and looking at the premade wardrobe doors. I then suggest speaking to your builder and telling them about your choice of doors. They can then build a front frame that can handle the wardrobe doors.

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.
