A clear, honest price guide for bespoke fitted wardrobes in London — from entry-level painted runs through to premium walnut walk-in dressing rooms — with the cost drivers that actually move the number on the quote.
Every Bravo London quote is itemised and VAT-included. Specifications can be adjusted up or down so the project lands on a budget that works — without compromising the cabinetry, the hardware or the installation.
Bespoke fitted wardrobes for London bedrooms, master suites, lofts and dressing rooms — designed, made and installed in-house, with all-in pricing.
Size of the wardrobe wall, the finish on the doors, and the interior specification. Almost every other quote variable falls under one of those three.
The simplest London box-room fitted wardrobe — a two-door painted run, basic hanging and a shelf — sits at one end of the scale, from around £2,500 supplied and fitted. A full master-suite walk-in in American walnut, with a central island, leather trays and an integrated LED lighting plan, sits at the other, comfortably above £30,000.
Most Bravo London projects land in the middle: a primary-bedroom wall in painted or smoked-oak veneer, with internal drawers, shoe storage and a basic lighting plan, generally between £8,000 and £14,000 supplied and installed. The price guidance on this page is calibrated against real Bravo London projects across London in the last twelve months, not catalogue list prices.
Painted matt MDF doors in plain slab or simple shaker style, with standard hanging, a shelf at the top of each bay and a single drawer or two below. The honest, well-priced option for second bedrooms, guest rooms, children's rooms and rental refurbishments where the brief is clean storage rather than a statement piece.
Guide price · From approximately £2,500–£5,500 supplied & fitted for a typical small-to-medium room.
Box rooms · Guest bedrooms · Rentals
Real-wood veneer (oak, smoked oak) or premium painted finish, handleless or slim-profile doors, internal drawers, pull-out trouser rails, shoe shelving and a basic LED lighting plan. The most popular tier in London — properly designed, properly fitted, and built to last without the cost of a full walnut suite.
Guide price · Typically £6,000–£14,000 for a 3–4m primary-bedroom wall.
Primary bedrooms · Townhouses · Family homes
American walnut, fumed oak, fluted timber or bespoke painted heritage colours, full handleless detailing, soft-close internal drawers with leather-effect lining, dedicated jewellery and watch trays, fully lit interiors and — for walk-ins — a central island with leather inserts. The full Bravo London specification, designed for dressing rooms and master suites.
Guide price · Typically £18,000–£45,000+ depending on size and material.
Master suites · Dressing rooms · Penthouses
The most cost-efficient door style. Standard painted hinged doors are the baseline against which other formats are priced.
Aluminium frames, track systems and larger panels typically add 15–30% over an equivalent painted hinged wardrobe.
Mirror panels — silver, bronze, smoked — sit at the top end of the sliding range, with bronze and smoked the most expensive.
Integrated finger-pull profiles add a modest premium over knob or bar handles, but pay back in longevity and cleanliness of line.
Quoted per linear metre of run, plus any central island, dressing table, mirrors and lighting — typically the highest total project value.
A premium for sloped ceilings, scribing into eaves and angled returns — usually 10–25% above a comparable straight-wall run.
Smaller in linear width but often more detail per metre because of returns, fillers and irregular openings.
The single biggest variable in a fitted wardrobe quote is the linear width of the wardrobe wall. Beyond that, ceiling height and the depth of any returns push the cabinetry and material spend up.
Guide ranges below are based on Bravo London projects across London in the last twelve months. Final price always depends on finish, door split, interior fit-out and site conditions — these are honest ranges, not list-price hooks.
Two-door fitted wardrobe in a chimney-breast recess or compact bedroom — typically £2,500–£5,000 painted, £4,500–£8,000 in veneer or with sliding doors.
Three-door wardrobe wall in a second bedroom or guest room — typically £4,500–£8,500 painted, £8,000–£14,000 in veneer with a full interior fit-out.
Four-door primary bedroom run with mixed hanging, drawers and shoe storage — typically £8,500–£16,000 painted, £14,000–£26,000 in walnut or smoked oak.
Five-door master-bedroom wardrobe wall with internal lighting and full handleless detailing — typically £14,000–£28,000 painted, £22,000–£42,000+ in premium veneer.
Open hanging and shelves on two or three walls of a small dressing area — typically £8,000–£16,000 cabinetry only.
Larger dressing room with a central island, bench seat and full lighting plan — typically £20,000–£45,000+ in veneered finishes.
Painted matt MDF is the baseline. Painted-to-order doors give a clean, durable finish at the lowest cost per square metre, and they can be specified in a wide range of colours including heritage and bespoke matches.
Real-wood veneer typically adds 20–45% over an equivalent painted door. Oak sits at the lower end of the veneer range, smoked oak in the middle, and American walnut at the top — with fluted timber, fluted glass and bronze mirror sitting at the specialist end.
Hardware choices matter at the margin. Soft-close hinges and drawers, anti-jump sliders, premium track systems and proper handleless profiles are not cosmetic extras — they decide whether the wardrobe still runs smoothly in year ten.
Loft conversions, chimney-breast alcoves, recessed openings and uneven walls all need additional scribing, filler detailing and careful surveying. That work is quoted in, not bolted on at the end.
Interior specification is where most fitted wardrobe quotes silently widen or shrink. The figures below are honest unit guides — useful for sizing the interior to the budget before you commit.
From £180–£350 per drawer depending on width, depth and finish.
From £120–£220 each, mounted to a sliding telescopic frame.
From £150–£280 each in leather-effect or velvet lining.
From £200–£450 per bay depending on whether shelves are static or pull-out.
From £400–£900 per wardrobe for vertical strips, shelf lighting and sensors.
From £600–£1,400 for a fitted dressing table with drawer, mirror and lighting.
From £180–£280 per basket.
From £80–£160 per rack.
A typical Bravo London interior fit-out for a mid-range master-bedroom wardrobe includes 4–6 internal drawers, one or two pull-out trouser rails, shoe shelving, jewellery trays, and a single LED lighting zone — usually adding £2,200–£4,200 to the cabinetry-only price.
A full premium walk-in interior — leather-fronted drawers, multiple lighting zones, dedicated dressing-table integration and a central island — typically adds £8,000–£18,000 over the cabinetry-only figure, depending on size.
Painted matt MDF is the reference point — every other finish is priced relative to it. Veneer, mirror, glass and specialist textures all carry a different premium.
The most cost-effective finish — clean, durable and easily refreshed.
Warm and natural, typically 20–30% above painted MDF.
Architectural and calm, around 25–35% above painted MDF.
The classic premium hardwood veneer, typically 35–55% above painted.
Distinctive vertical texture, typically 40–60% above flat painted doors.
Silver mirror moderate, bronze and smoked mirror at the top of the range.
Boutique finish for sliding wardrobes, typically the most expensive option.
Best used as an accent — adds £150–£400 per drawer.
Bravo London quotes itemise these from day one. Other suppliers sometimes leave them off the headline price and surface them later — worth checking line by line.
Plastering, levelling and decorating around the wardrobe opening are not normally included in the cabinetry price.
Cable routes and transformer positions for internal LED lighting need to be planned with an electrician.
Stripping out existing fitted or freestanding wardrobes is usually quoted as a separate line item.
Removing chimney breasts, stud walls or relocating radiators sit outside the wardrobe scope.
If carpet runs under the wardrobe, lifting and re-tucking after installation may need a carpet fitter.
Painted-to-order doors are normally factory-finished; on-site paint touch-up is quoted separately.

Pricing does not change by postcode. A 3m painted wardrobe wall costs the same in Chiswick as it does in Wapping. What changes is how much site preparation, scribing and detailing the room needs — and those line items appear separately on the quote.
Bravo London also installs across the Home Counties — Surrey, Berkshire and Essex — with the same all-in pricing model. A small mileage surcharge for projects more than 25 miles from our NW10 workshop is itemised on the proposal where it applies.
The honest answer to "how much do fitted wardrobes cost in London" is — it depends on three things you can control. The wall width is set by the room. Almost everything else — finish, door style, interior fit-out, lighting — is a choice, and each of those choices moves the price by a known amount.
Start with the wall. Measure the linear width of the wardrobe wall, the ceiling height and the depth available. Multiply width by height to get a rough wardrobe face area. As a sanity check, a fully painted Bravo London fitted wardrobe sits in the region of £1,400–£2,200 per linear metre supplied and installed at mid spec; veneer doors push that to £1,900–£3,400 per linear metre; full walnut walk-ins land in the £3,200–£5,500 per linear metre range.
Next, decide the door style. Plain painted hinged doors are the most cost-efficient. Shaker-style painted doors add a modest premium. Real-wood veneer pushes the cost up 20–45%. Sliding doors add a further premium over hinged. Mirror and glass sit at the top of the door range. The most expensive single decision on most quotes is switching from painted MDF to American walnut veneer.
Then plan the interior. A bare wardrobe with long hanging, a top shelf and a single drawer per bay is the baseline. Adding internal drawers, pull-out trouser rails, jewellery trays, shoe shelving and integrated LED lighting can comfortably add £2,000–£5,000 to a mid-range master-bedroom run, but most clients report it as the best money they spent on the project.
Account for the things that aren't always inside the headline price. Removal of old wardrobes, electrical first-fix for internal lighting, plastering or making good around the opening, and any building works to the room itself usually sit outside the wardrobe cabinetry quote. Bravo London itemises these clearly so you can see them up front rather than discover them later.
Hold a small contingency. For a project under £10,000, allow 5%. For a project between £10,000 and £25,000, allow 7%. For premium walk-ins above £25,000, allow 10%. Most projects come in under quote, but a contingency means a last-minute change — an extra drawer, a deeper shoe shelf, a second lighting zone — does not throw the budget.
Compare quotes line by line. A lower headline price that excludes installation, VAT or interior fit-out is almost always more expensive once you add the missing lines back in. A Bravo London quote is itemised, VAT-included and held for 60 days from issue — what you see is what you pay.
Finally, weigh the cost against the life of the wardrobe. A well-built Bravo London fitted wardrobe is designed to last 15–25 years of daily use, with a 10-year product and installation guarantee on every project. Spread across that lifespan, the difference between an entry-level and a mid-range specification is genuinely small — and the difference in daily experience is large.
As a working guide, budget around £500-£700 per linear metre for a simpler fitted wardrobe, £750-£1,100 per linear metre for a mid-range bespoke design, and £1,200-£2,500+ per linear metre for luxury finishes, complex layouts or walk-in furniture. Most complete London bedroom projects land somewhere between £2,500 and £7,000+, with larger or more detailed rooms costing more.
The price changes with the width, height, ceiling shape, number of doors, internal layout, finish, hardware, lighting, access, delivery, installation time and whether any preparation work is needed. A straight run with simple hanging space is very different from a sprayed, wall-to-wall wardrobe with drawers, pull-outs, mirrors and LED lighting.
A typical quote should include design guidance, measured drawings or specification, made-to-measure cabinetry, agreed doors and internals, standard hardware, delivery and installation. Items such as electrics, removal of old wardrobes, waste disposal, plastering, decorating, flooring adjustments and VAT should be shown separately if they apply.
Usually, no. Freestanding wardrobes are normally cheaper upfront because they are mass-produced. Fitted wardrobes cost more because they are measured, designed and installed for the room, but they use awkward space better, look built-in and can be a stronger long-term investment.
Sliding doors usually cost more than hinged doors because they need robust tracks, larger door panels and more precise fitting. They can still be the better choice in narrow rooms because they do not need swing space in front of the wardrobe.
A compact walk-in wardrobe can start around £3,500-£6,000. A more detailed dressing room with drawer banks, lighting, premium finishes or a centre island is more commonly £6,000-£12,000+, with luxury schemes rising beyond that.
As a guide, allow roughly £150-£350 per internal drawer, £120-£450 for specialist pull-outs, and £300-£1,000+ for LED lighting depending on the number of zones and whether electrical work is needed. The final cost depends on specification and access.
Yes. Melamine-faced board and painted MDF sit at the more accessible end. Sprayed lacquer, veneer, solid timber details, mirrors, glass, fluted panels, premium runners and specialist handles can all lift the price significantly because they affect both material cost and fitting time.
For a fitted wardrobe project, installation should normally be included unless the quote is clearly marked supply-only. Always check whether delivery, parking, waste removal, making good, electrical work and VAT are included or listed separately.
Ask during the design consultation. If payment plans or finance are available, the terms should be confirmed in writing before you proceed. Many bespoke projects are handled with a deposit, a manufacturing or pre-installation payment, and a final balance on completion.
For a small, straightforward box-room wardrobe, budget around £1,800-£3,500. If the room has awkward angles, upgraded doors, drawers, lighting or a sprayed finish, a more realistic range is £3,500-£5,500+.
A wall-to-wall master-bedroom wardrobe is often around £5,000-£10,000 for a good bespoke specification. Larger runs, premium door styles, lots of drawers, integrated lighting or luxury finishes can take the project to £10,000-£15,000+.
Loft and eaves wardrobes usually cost more than a straight run because angled doors, scribing, infills and templates take longer. A simple loft wardrobe may be around £3,000-£7,000, and the sloped-ceiling complexity can add roughly £800-£2,000 compared with a like-for-like flat-wall design.
If the supplier is VAT registered, VAT applies. For consumer work, quotes should make clear whether prices are inclusive or exclusive of VAT. The safest approach is to ask for the total payable amount in writing before approving the design.
Yes, a proper fitted wardrobe quote should be based on accurate measurements. An initial estimate can often be prepared from photos and approximate dimensions, but the final design and confirmed price should follow a measured survey.
