How do I design an L shaped Walk in Wardrobe?

• Firstly decide which wall you want to be the main or feature wall. Select modules to fit this wall making sure that the end module is either full hang or double hang - No Drawers can be placed in the corner. The elite shelves sit 500mm deep so take 500mm from the length of the second wall and decide which modules will fit in this space.
• We have a number of You tube videos designed to show you how we go round corners when building a built in Robe.
• Video "L" Shaped Wardrobe

Where is the elite system Manufactured?

• We manufacture all the shelves and drawer boxes in our own factory based in Wangara WA. We have qualified cabinet makers on staff who are responsible for making all the components. We make all the Shelves and Drawer Boxes from Laminex or Formica's Commercial Collection.. We import all the Aluminium components from a major wardrobe manufacturer based in Europe. Like all large manufacturers they have a factory in Europe and they also have a factory in China. All the aluminium components are made in the China factory under strict European quality control.

How easy is it to move the shelves?

• To move a shelf you need a 4mm Allen Key. You can position the shelves anywhere up or down the post. The bracket has a locking system that is easy to undo and move. If you are moving shelves it is usually easier with two people doing the job. One person holds the shelf while the other person holds the brackets open and fixes them in place.

Is Shipping included in the price?

• If you live in the Perth Metro Area and your order is over $1,000 we can deliver for Free. We usually deliver early Saturday morning. However, if you live outside of this area, shipping to your location is usually charged at cost. We normally use Toll Ipec to ship Australia Wide. However, if you have your own transport company we are happy to use them. We always advise to check the insurance with your shipping company as once the goods leave our factory we cannot be held liable for any damage that may occur. We will do our best to package the goods on a pallet to ensure safe delivery. Once the goods arrive at your location you may need to unpack the pallet by hand if you do not have a forklift available. Shipping charges are based on weight and cubic size of the order. Deliveries to the East Coast are typically above the $200 mark.

Why are the drawer boxes restricted to 850mm, 700mm or 600mm?

• To keep our costs down, we have bulk purchased from our suppliers and manufactured shelves and drawer boxes in advance. That way we minimize wastage and maximise what we do with each sheet of material. We keep our costs down and we pass these lower cost on to you.

Can I order the goods and get your staff to install my new Built In Robe?

• Yes. We have done a large number of installations around the Perth Metro Area. If you are outside of the Perth area, we can install for you but extra charges apply for the time taken to travel to your location.

Can I get a custom made wardrobe using a wood grain or different Laminex, Formica or Polytec colour than the standard range?

• Yes. We have done a large number of installations for customers who want to match the new wardrobe to the cabinets in an en suite or bedroom. If you have selected a colour you would like to use, please let us know and we can get a price to you. If you would like to discuss an alternative product, please fill in the contact form.
