Wardrobe & Closet Design
Wardrobes with a place for everything
A good wardrobe is planned from the inside out: hanging lengths, drawer depths, saree and suit storage, and room for the suitcases you only need twice a year. We design sliding, hinged, walk-in and loft wardrobes that fit your room and your routine in homes across Delhi NCR.
Overview
Storage designed around your wardrobe, not a catalogue
Most wardrobe problems come from a mismatch between the storage and what actually goes into it. Long kurtas crushed in short hanging sections, sarees stacked so high they topple, and loft spaces nobody can reach without a stool. We begin by understanding what each person keeps: formal shirts, lehengas, winter jackets, folded casuals, shoes, bags, jewellery and the bulky quilts that come out only in December.
From there we decide the shutter type and the interior. Sliding wardrobes save space in compact bedrooms where a bed sits close to the wall, hinged shutters give full access and cost less, and walk-in closets turn a dressing area or spare room into organised, open storage. Lofts above the wardrobe are planned with separate shutters so seasonal items stay dust-free. Inside, we combine long and short hanging rails, adjustable shelves, internal drawers, pull-out trouser racks, tie and belt organisers, and a locker where needed.
Panache Interiors is the home interiors arm of Panache Architect, with our studio in Faridabad and projects across Delhi, Gurugram, Noida, Faridabad and Ghaziabad. All wardrobes are factory-made for precise edge-banding and finish, then installed by our own teams, with lighting and electrical points coordinated in advance.
A typical set of bedroom wardrobes takes 25–35 days from design approval to handover, including 15–20 days of factory production and 1–3 days of installation per room.
What we design
Every zone, planned.
From the first thing a visitor sees to the spaces only your team uses — each area is planned for how it works, how it looks and how it is maintained.
Long hanging section
Around 1500–1600 mm of clear hanging height for dresses, kurtas, long coats and sarees on hangers. Usually one bay per person is enough.
Double hanging for shirts
Two rails stacked at roughly 1000 mm each double the capacity for shirts, tops and folded trousers on hangers. Ideal for daily office wear.
Adjustable shelving
Shelves at 300–350 mm spacing with adjustable pins for folded clothes, sweaters and linen. Shelf depth is kept shallower than the carcass where possible so piles do not hide behind each other.
Internal drawers
Soft-close drawers behind the shutter for innerwear, accessories and documents. Velvet-lined trays can be added for watches and jewellery.
Locker and safe bay
A dedicated compartment for a locker or a built-in safe, anchored to the carcass and wall. Positioned discreetly within the wardrobe.
Shoe and bag storage
Angled shoe shelves or pull-outs at the base and open cubbies for handbags. Ventilated backs help prevent odour build-up.
Loft storage
Separate loft shutters above the main wardrobe, up to the ceiling, for suitcases, quilts and seasonal clothing. Planned so the loft shutters align with the main grid.
Dressing and mirror panel
A full-length mirror on a shutter or inside a walk-in, with a small dresser ledge and lighting for getting ready. Saves wall space in the bedroom.
Design inspiration — representative imagery
Key details
The details that decide it.
A space that still works three years after opening day is decided by technical detail — lighting, services, materials and compliance. This is what we get right.
Carcass and core material
We recommend MR-grade plywood or HDHMR for bedroom wardrobes, and BWP ply for walls shared with bathrooms or prone to seepage. Carcasses are fixed with a gap and moisture barrier against external walls to protect from monsoon dampness.
Sliding vs hinged systems
Sliding wardrobes need a top-hung or bottom-running track system rated for shutter weight, typically 2–3 shutters on aluminium profiles with soft-close dampers. Hinged shutters use 110° soft-close hinges from Hettich, Hafele, Blum or equivalent, and need about 600 mm of clear floor in front.
Shutter finishes
Laminates are the most durable and affordable, acrylic and PU deliver a high-gloss or deep matte look, and lacquered or fluted glass adds lightness. Veneer suits classic interiors, while profile shutters with reflective or tinted glass work well for walk-ins.
Internal accessories
Pull-out trouser racks, tie and belt organisers, pull-down wardrobe lifts for high rails and saree pull-outs make deep storage easy to use. We choose only accessories that suit your actual clothing, so the budget goes where it helps.
Wardrobe lighting
Sensor-activated LED profiles inside the wardrobe light up as the shutter opens, with 3000K–4000K colour temperature and CRI 90+ so fabric colours read accurately. Wiring is concealed in the carcass and powered from a dedicated point.
Warping and alignment control
Tall shutters above 2100 mm get aluminium anti-warp profiles or are split into two panels. Edge-banding on all four sides, done by machine, protects the core from humidity.
Design directions
Find your look.
Starting points we refine with you into a look that is yours — palette, materials and lighting worked out together in 3D.
Minimal handle-less
Flat matte laminate shutters in warm white, greige or charcoal with recessed J-profile handles. Keeps a compact bedroom visually clean.
Glass-front walk-in
Bronze or smoke-tinted glass shutters in slim aluminium frames with internal lighting and a wood-grain interior. Gives a boutique feel to a dressing room.
Classic panelled
Moulded or profile shutters in PU paint or veneer, with brass or antique handles. Suits traditional and colonial-inspired bedrooms.
Fluted and textured
Fluted laminate or veneer panels combined with plain shutters, often in soft earthy tones. Adds texture without making the wardrobe feel heavy.

FAQs
Wardrobes & Walk-in Closets — answered.
Still have a question? Call or WhatsApp — a designer will answer.
Should I choose a sliding or a hinged wardrobe?
Sliding wardrobes suit rooms where the bed or furniture sits close to the wardrobe, since they need no swing space. Hinged wardrobes give full access to the interior at once and generally cost less. If you have at least 600 mm clear in front, either works well.
How much space do I need for a walk-in closet?
A single-sided walk-in can work in a space about 1.5 m wide, while a double-sided one needs roughly 2.1 m to allow a comfortable walkway. We often convert part of a large bedroom, a dressing passage or a spare room.
Which material is best for wardrobes in Delhi NCR weather?
MR-grade plywood or HDHMR works well for most bedroom wardrobes. On external walls or walls shared with a bathroom, we use BWP ply and a moisture barrier because monsoon dampness can affect the carcass.
Are lofts worth adding above the wardrobe?
Yes, especially in homes with high ceilings. Lofts take suitcases, quilts and seasonal clothing that would otherwise eat into everyday storage. We give them separate shutters so they stay dust-free.
Can you add lighting inside the wardrobe?
We fit LED profile lights with door or motion sensors so the interior lights up when opened. We use high-CRI LEDs so clothing colours look accurate.
How long does it take to make and install wardrobes?
Factory production usually takes 15–20 days after the design is approved, and installation takes 1–3 days per room. Overall, plan for about 25–35 days.
What warranty do you provide?
Warranty is as per the material and hardware brand selected, and we share the applicable terms with your quote. We also explain care for each shutter finish at handover.
Do you design wardrobes for kids' rooms too?
Yes. For children we plan lower hanging rails that can be raised later, adjustable shelves, and storage for books and toys, so the wardrobe grows with them.
