Wardrobe Secrets




Hanging Rails

Double hanging rails (hanging one rail above the other) will double the amount of space and can be used for short clothes such as shirts, skirts, jackets, short dresses and long pants if they are folded over. These are suitable for both his and her side of the wardrobe. A single rail or full-height hanging space will house long dresses, trench coats, suits and other items that can’t be folded.



Shelving & Drawers

A combination of open shelving and drawers, depending on your needs, will make the best use of the space. Large open shelving at the very top is good for bulky items such as bags, suitcases and hat boxes while multi sized drawers are good for smaller, flatter items such as underwear, socks and t-shirts. Pigeon holes are good for folded bulkier items such as men's jumpers.

Hints & Tips


  • Slim-line, pull out racks will minimise the space used for accessories such as belts and ties.
  • Consider a skylight for good natural lighting and warm downlights for effective night lighting.
  • A single shoe rack at the bottom of a single rail space will maximise unused space.
  • A dressing area with mirror and shallow jewellery drawer may be suitable if there’s no room for a dresser in the bedroom.
