The right storage options make a huge difference to the look and functionality of a bedroom and wardrobes can offer a range of different types of storage, including hanging rails, shelves and pull-out drawers. As one of the largest pieces of furniture in your bedroom, ensuring it fits the style of your space is key and custom wardrobe doors can easily help you to achieve your desired look without breaking the budget.

Here we'll run through a selection of the different styles of custom wardrobe doors in the Happy Doors range and how they can help you to create a restful and relaxing atmosphere that's tailored to you.

Highly Rated Custom Wardrobe Doors from Happy Doors

Traditional Wardrobe Doors

Classic, timeless and robust, traditional wardrobe doors open outwards from the middle and can be personalised with a variety of knobs, handles and finishes. There are a variety of traditional styles in the Happy Doors range, including our beautiful Bella Shaker doors. The simple panelled detailing is elegant and sophisticated, and the clean lines are well-suited to both modern and older properties.

If you enjoy traditional wardrobe doors that have additional characterful details, our Bella Westbury doors are a great option to consider. This style features a flat central panel with tongue and groove detailing, as well as a combination of straight and gently curved lines that offer plenty of personality.

All of our traditional styles are available in a wide range of more than 50 finishes, making it possible to use colour to ensure this timeless style can easily be incorporated into contemporary properties.

Pro Tip: If you want to maximise storage space inside your wardrobes, you can install pegs or hooks on the inside of traditional wardrobe doors to hang items in a way that is easily accessible.

Sliding Wardrobe Doors

If your bedroom doesn't have much floor space, choosing sliding doors can ensure that you don't need to give up on the idea of having floor-to-ceiling wardrobes. When installed on a high quality sliding rail system, your sliding doors will open with ease to effortlessly reveal what's inside.

Slab style doors can be mounted on sliding rails, so there are plenty of options to consider when finding the perfect doors for your space. Our Ora wardrobe doors have a beautifully tactile soft touch feel, which will add a delicate flourish to your design that offers an extra level of comfort. The colour matched reverse and edge ensure this style has a sleek and seamless quality, which will make your room feel truly complete as soon as they are installed.

Pro Tip: Choosing a high gloss finish can help to make your bedroom feel much larger and brighter by effortlessly reflecting light and bouncing it around the room.

Bi-Fold Wardrobe Doors

Despite being a lesser-seen option, it's also possible to install your new wardrobe doors using a bi-fold mechanism that you may also see being called a concertina mechanism. With this style, your doors will fold back in different sections and can be ideal in smaller bedrooms. You could also combine different installation systems and combine a bi-fold section with more traditional hinged systems, especially if there is just one part of your wardrobe configuration that is trickier to reach.

High Gloss Wardrobe Doors

Many of the doors in our range are available in a selection of high gloss colours, which have light-reflecting qualities and can infuse a sense of contemporary style into any space. Our Zurfiz doors are just one example of a style that can offer an ultra-modern look and they are available in gloss, ultragloss and metallic finishes that can really help you to give your bedroom a sense of style that reflects your personality.

Alongside soft neutrals such as cashmere and pebble, there are also a range of finishes that have a more textured look, including limestone and copperleaf. Metallic options include blue, champagne and anthracite, so whether you're looking for a light colour or one that will offer more depth, there are plenty of options to explore regardless of your preferred finish.

Supermatt Wardrobe Doors

If a gloss finish doesn't align with your personal style, a supermatt finish may be better placed to help bring your design visions into reality. Each style in the Happy Doors range is available in a selection of matt and supermatt finishes, spanning neutral, pastel and deeper colour palettes.

Matt wardrobe doors expertly bridge the gap between classic and modern design, as they're versatile enough to sit comfortably in a range of design schemes. For example, a matt blush pink, Scandinavian blue or pistachio green can bring a touch of modernity to an otherwise traditional design scheme. Similarly, choosing a heritage inspired colour, such as blue, fir green or rusty red, can infuse an element of the traditional into a contemporary property in a way that won't look out of place

Handleless Wardrobe Doors

Featuring seamlessly concealed recessed grooves that are perfectly sized for fingertips, handleless wardrobe doors have a sleek and pared back profile, which can ensure that there aren't any small details present to distract the eye's attention from any aspect of your design.

Our Bella Chelsea doors are a beautiful example of the seamless quality that handleless doors can bring to your bedroom, as the recessed handle has a gently curved design which offers a sense of softness that's ideal for a restful and comfortable sleeping space.
