From Fitted To Finessed: Wardrobe Door Makeovers That Turn Everyday Bedrooms Into Boutique-Style Spaces

If a bedroom makeover is on the horizon in your home, it's well worth noting that refreshing the look of your wardrobes can help you to create a space that offers a boutique hotel style experience every night. With so many different ways to finesse your bedroom storage, here are some ideas that we hope will give you all the inspiration and guidance you need to create your dream bedroom.

Make your storage seemingly disappear

Choosing replacement wardrobe doors to match your wall colour can be a great way to minimise the appearance of large wardrobes and allow you to establish other design elements as the primary features in your space. Additionally, wardrobe doors in a simple, unassuming style can be a great contrast for an elaborate storage system or a wardrobe that explodes with colour whenever you open the doors.

Our Bella range of wardrobe doors has an extensive colour selection and includes doors in a range of styles, such as handleless and Shaker style. So, whether you enjoy the brightening effects of white walls or you can't get enough of richer, jewel or earthier tones, you'll be spoilt for choice when it comes to selecting your perfect finish.

Pro Tip: If the look of sleek handleless doors isn't quite to your taste, choosing simple or slimline handles is a great way to ensure that your bedroom storage doesn't take up too much visual space within your design.

Play with different colours

For a cute, quirky and somewhat unexpected look, choosing two different colours for your wardrobe doors can feel very designer and bring a unique sense of personality to your bedroom. The colour contrast can be subtle or much more eye-catching, depending on your personal style and how much of a visual impact you want this feature to make as soon as you enter the space.

Blush pink and pastel Scandinavian blue are two colours that work beautifully together, offering a subtle hint of colour that still feels very fresh and modern. Alternatively, you could play with a rich fir green and rusty red combination or mix and match different jewel tones to bring a sense of opulence and drama to your bedroom.

Sleek, space-saving sliding doors

Sliding wardrobe doors are both stylish and functional, especially if your bedroom doesn't have a lot of available floor space. High quality sliding doors move seamlessly on a discreet rail system, allowing you to open and close them with ease.

As well as being ideally suited to rooms with a small footprint, this style is also perfect if you're hoping to achieve a minimalist inspired look. Our Ora doors are a beautiful example of high quality sliding doors, which have a soft touch feel that's perfectly suited to a cosy bedroom.

Pro Tip: Minimalist inspired spaces can sometimes look a little cold. Choosing replacement wardrobe doors with a warm wood finish can mitigate this, ensuring your space has just the right level of warmth and cosiness. Our Valore slab doors can be installed on sliding rails and come in a selection of warm wood finishes, including light natural casella oak.

Characterful panelling for a quietly luxurious look

Luxury doesn't always need to be ostentatious or immediately attention-grabbing, so if you're hoping to infuse your master bedroom suite with a quiet sense of luxury, choosing beautifully panelled Shaker style doors for your wardrobes can be perfect.

Our Bella Richmond doors are a beautiful option for a classic-meets-contemporary bedroom, as the panelling is minimal and they look stunning when finished with a simple and traditional Windsor door knob in either a cool or warm toned metal finish.

Make a statement with a high gloss finish

If natural light is minimal in your bedroom or you want to incorporate light-reflecting surfaces into your space, wardrobe doors with a high gloss finish can be the ideal addition to your design.

Our Zurfiz doors with a colour matched edge have an ultra-modern style that looks crisp and clean. For an extra flash of contemporary style that looks expensive but won't break the bank, choose a metallic finish or a finish with some stunning visual texture, such as ultragloss copperleaf, ultragloss limestone or porcelain gold light gloss.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wardrobe Doors

Are modern or more traditional wardrobe doors right for my bedroom?

It's not always easy to choose the perfect style of wardrobe doors for your space, which is why we always recommend looking for interior inspiration to get a feel for the styles you like and those you don't relate to quite so much. We've also made sure to include images which show each of our wardrobe doors in a styled bedroom setting, so you can start to imagine how each style may look in your home.

Can I order colour samples from Happy Doors to compare different finishes?

Whether you can't quite decide which finish to choose or you'd like to see what your preferred option looks like in real life under different lighting conditions, we've made it possible to order up to six colour swatch samples for free.

Simply visit the free colour samples section on our website, enter a few contact details and select the samples you want to compare. When you receive your samples, we recommend looking at how they look in natural light at different times of the day, as well as how they interact with the artificial lighting you want to incorporate into your bedroom.

Is it easy to measure for new wardrobe doors?

All of our doors are made to perfectly fit your existing storage solutions, so while it's important to provide us with accurate measurements, this process is incredibly straightforward and shouldn't take more than a few minutes.
