Amsterdam 3 Door Mirrored Sliding Wardrobe 250cm with Drawers and LED

Description

The Amsterdam 250 is the large model in the Amsterdam range: a three-door sliding wardrobe with a mirrored centre door, three wide drawers across the base and an LED light strip along the top. The two outer doors are white high-gloss, the frame is walnut effect, and a fine metal stripe runs across all three fronts so they read as one piece of furniture rather than three panels.

Please note the size before you plan the wall. It is sold as the 250 model, but the measured width is 255cm, with a height of 222cm and a depth of 61cm. That is a wardrobe for a generous main bedroom or a long, uninterrupted wall: a 3 door sliding wardrobe with drawers that can take a couple’s everyday clothes plus folded storage in one run.

What you get

• Three sliding doors: two white high-gloss, one mirrored centre door
• Three external drawers across the full width
• Two hanging sections with a shelved centre column
• LED light strip across the top of the frame
• Decorative metal stripe detail across the doors
• Aluminium door slides on bearing carriages (SEVROLL fittings)
• Walnut-effect carcass with white high-gloss fronts
• Supplied flat packed for home assembly

Dimensions

Those are the assembled dimensions. Before you order, measure the route the cartons have to travel as well as the wall the wardrobe will stand against: the front door, any turn in the stairs, the landing and the bedroom doorway. The panels are long, and a 255cm wardrobe cannot be tipped through a tight turn once it is built, so it should be assembled in the room.

Check the ceiling as well. You need a little more than the 222cm finished height to stand the wardrobe upright during assembly, and few ceilings are perfectly level.

Specification

Planning it into the room

Inside you get two hanging sections, one each side, with a centre column of shelves between them, all above the three drawers. Sliding doors need no swing space, which matters on a wardrobe this wide: hinged doors across 255cm would need a large clear strip of floor. You can only open roughly a third of the front at a time, so keep things you use daily in the outer hanging sections. The drawers pull straight out, so leave room in front of the base.

Leave a few centimetres behind the wardrobe if your skirting board is deep, and check the floor is level before you build: on a tall unit a slight slope shows up as doors that will not close flush. We recommend fixing every wardrobe of this height to the wall with a suitable anti-tip fitting.

Delivery

We deliver to mainland England and Wales. We do not currently deliver to Scotland, Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man, the Isle of Wight, the Channel Islands or the Isles of Scilly.

The wardrobe arrives flat packed in several cartons, with a total shipping weight of about 260kg, so two people are needed to carry and assemble it. The current lead time is 4 to 6 weeks from order, and we will confirm your delivery date before dispatch. Please make sure the route into the room is clear on the day.

Questions we get asked

Is it 250cm or 255cm wide?

It is sold as the 250 model, but the measured width is 255cm. Plan your wall, alcove and skirting clearances on 255cm.

Does the LED lighting need wiring in?

No hard wiring is needed. The light strip runs from a plug-in supply, so you need a socket within reach of the unit. Plan the cable route before the wardrobe goes against the wall.

How much hanging space is there?

There are two hanging sections, one on each side of a shelved centre column. The hanging sits above the drawer row, so the drop is shorter than the overall height; coats, suits and most dresses hang well.

Can the drawers open with the doors closed?

Yes. The three drawers sit below the doors as their own row and open straight out regardless of door position.

Does it come assembled?

No. It arrives flat packed in several cartons with fixings and instructions. At this size it is a two-person build and should be assembled in the room where it will stand.
