Why Mirrored Wardrobe Doors are Popular

Every month we create hundreds of sets of sliding wardrobe doors. Sliding doors can be used in different applications, from Attic Conversion Storage to Narrowboat Storage and even on TV! By far, the most popular finish that we get requests for is for mirrored doors. 

Mirrored Wardrobe Doors make your Space Feel Bigger

Fitted wardrobes are a great way to save space and create intuitive storage solutions. When space is a commodity, it’s important to make your living space seem as spacious and as comfortable as possible. Mirrors can help trick the mind into thinking the space appears bigger than it actually is. By angling mirrors at a specific focus point it will give an illusion of depth to your room. 

All of our doors come with a wide range of tracks, fittings and finishes. These finishes can be matched to your existing decor in order to create continuity throughout. This continuity can trick the mind into thinking the room is bigger than it actually is. This is especially true if the mirrors are next to windows or have the same finishes as the windows. 

Mirrored Doors Bring in Natural Light

Natural light is actually good for you! It boosts vitamin D, reduces seasonal depression and even helps you get better sleep. More natural light means less artificial light usage which saves money and helps the environment. Mirrors help massively with reflecting natural light around rooms. 

It’s no surprise that interior designers are opting for full length mirrored wardrobe doors. It helps the room feel more relaxed and promotes more natural lights in the room. Using a series of mirrored wardrobes can help even more with natural light bouncing around several times.

Clear Mirror - is our most popular mirror finish. We only use high quality mirror glass to allow us much light reflection as possible. 

Grey Mirror - Our grey mirror wardrobes offer less reflection, which is ideal for smaller rooms. The grey mirror offers a classy tint on a traditional mirror finish.

Bronze Mirror - The bronze mirror offers less reflection than the clean mirror. The tint on the mirror subtly changes the hue of the natural light that reflects off it. This is finish is popular with interior designers that want to match their decor.
