Alicante II 4 Door Mirrored Hinged Wardrobe 200cm

Description

The Alicante II 4 Door Mirrored Hinged Wardrobe 200cm is the Alicante range with a mirror built in. It has four flat, full-height hinged doors, two mirrored doors among them, on a cabinet 200cm wide and 202cm tall, made for a main double bedroom. The two centre doors are both mirrored, so when they sit side by side you get a mirror roughly a metre wide, broad enough for two people getting ready at once.

It is a natural his-and-hers wardrobe: each cabinet has its own wide bay, shelf and rail, so each person gets their own side. Every door closes on a soft-close hinge, and long, slim black aluminium bar handles run down the door edges. Choose from Oak Artisan, White Matt, Black Matt, Cashmere or Warm Walnut.

The mirror

The mirror runs almost the full height of the two centre doors, so it shows you head to toe rather than from the waist up. A full-length mirror on a wardrobe door also does a second job in a bedroom: it bounces light from the window back into the room, which makes a north-facing or narrow bedroom feel noticeably brighter. Because the mirror is part of the door, there is nothing to hang on the wall, no extra furniture to find room for and no mirror to knock over. If you would rather have plain doors all the way across, the same wardrobe without a mirror is the Alicante I 200cm.

Finishes and style

The Alicante II front is deliberately plain: no cornice, no plinth trim and no decorative panels, just two flat doors in the finish you choose and the mirror glass. White Matt keeps a small room light and pairs naturally with the mirror. Black Matt makes the mirror stand out as a feature and suits a hotel-style room with brass or gold accents. Oak Artisan has visible knots and grain for a warmer, Scandi feel. Cashmere is a soft grey-beige that sits well with cream bedding and pale oak floors. Warm Walnut is a deep mid-brown wood effect for a classic or mid-century scheme, and costs a little more than the other four. All five are low-sheen laminates, so they hide fingerprints far better than gloss.

Storage inside

Inside there are two wide bays about 97cm across. At the top of each bay is a shelf compartment about 34cm high, deep enough for stacked jumpers, handbags or a spare duvet, and below it a hanging rail with about 161cm of drop. That clears full-length coats and most maxi dresses, so long items do not crease on the base. In total there is close to 1.95m of rail. Expect to hang roughly 80 to 100 garments across the two rails, and keep shoes or a storage box on the base below the hems. Arte-N sell additional shelves separately if you want to divide a bay further.

Measuring up

The wardrobe is 200cm wide, 52cm deep and 202cm high. Arte-N’s drawing shows a 50cm-deep cabinet; the doors and handles add the last 2cm. That depth takes an adult coat hanger square-on without the clothes rubbing the doors. Each door is about 50cm wide, so keep around 55cm of clear floor in front of the wardrobe for the doors to open fully, and remember the mirror is most useful with a metre or so of standing room in front of it. The wardrobe is built lying down and then stood up, and the diagonal of the side is about 208cm, so the ceiling needs to be at least 2.1m. It is supplied as two 100cm cabinets that stand side by side and weighs about 136kg once assembled, so the build is a job for two adults. We recommend fixing it to the wall with fixings suited to your wall type.

Care

Wipe the laminate with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry it straight away; avoid scouring pads, bleach and solvent cleaners on the matt finish. Clean the mirror with a glass cleaner sprayed onto the cloth rather than onto the glass, so no liquid runs into the door edge. A few weeks after assembly, check the hinges: each soft-close hinge has small adjustment screws, and a quarter turn brings a door back into line if it has settled.

Other sizes

Alicante II comes in five widths with the same 202cm height, finishes and soft-close doors: the 2 door 100cm, 3 door 150cm, 5 door 250cm, 6 door 300cm. Measure the wall including skirting boards and any radiator, and leave about 5cm spare at each end.
