Futura FU-12 Sliding Door Wardrobe

Description

The Futura FU-12 Sliding Door Wardrobe is a 200cm wide wardrobe standing 216cm tall and 60cm deep. It is built as a full-height hanging and shelving unit, and behind them five shelves.

The finish is White Gloss. At this height the rail is set to take full-length garments rather than only shirts and jackets.

Dimensions

Those are the assembled dimensions. Before you order, measure the route the cartons have to travel as well as the wall they are going against: the front door, any turn on the stairs, the landing and the bedroom doorway. A 200cm wardrobe is normally the widest thing that will go into a room’s upstairs, and once it is built it cannot be tipped through a tight turn.

Allow a little over the 216cm height when you check the ceiling. The unit has to be stood upright during assembly, so you need slightly more clearance than the finished height, and few ceilings are perfectly level.

Specification

Planning it into the room

Set the unit against the longest uninterrupted wall you have, and check for a radiator, an unusually deep skirting board or a coving run that would stop it sitting flush.

At 60cm deep it is built for garments to hang across the wardrobe front to back, which is the depth a coat hanger needs to sit square rather than at an angle. Leave a few centimetres behind the unit if your skirting board is deep, and make sure the floor is level before you build: a wardrobe this tall shows a twist in the frame as a door that will not sit flush.

Delivery

We deliver this wardrobe to mainland England and Wales. We do not currently deliver to the Scottish Highlands, the Scottish islands, Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man, the Isle of Wight or the Channel Islands.

It arrives flat-packed and weighs 168kg in total, so it comes in more than one carton and needs two people to carry and to assemble. Current lead time is 3-5 Weeks from order. Delivery is to the room of your choice where the route allows it; please have the space clear before the delivery arrives.

Questions we get asked

Will my coats and dresses hang full length in it?

Yes. At 216cm overall this is a tall wardrobe, and a full-height hanging section in a unit this size takes floor-length coats and dresses without them touching the base. The top panel and the rail fixing take some of that 216cm, so measure your longest garment and compare it against the internal drop rather than the external height.

How much clearance does it need?

Allow clear floor in front for access, and check the route in before ordering: the cartons have to pass the front door, the stairs and the bedroom doorway.

Does it come assembled?

No. It is supplied flat-packed with instructions and fixings, and at 168kg it is split across more than one carton. Two people are needed for carrying and for assembly, mostly because the side and back panels are large and awkward rather than because they are heavy. Build it close to where it will stand: once assembled, a wardrobe this size will not go round a tight turn.

What is the interior layout?

As supplied it has 5 shelves. Shelf positions are set by the pre-drilled panels, so plan around the configuration shown rather than assuming it can be rearranged freely. If you want more hanging and less shelving, check the feature list above: on several wardrobes in this range an additional rail can be bought separately and fitted in place of shelves.
