Choose Your Finish
Every shaker wardrobe is handcrafted to order. We offer three premium door finishes — each with a distinct look, texture and price point.
Lacquered Oak Veneer
Natural real-wood grain with the durability of a factory lacquer. Warm, organic texture visible through the colour — the most tactile of our three options. Ideal for those who want a hint of nature alongside a precise colour match.
From £2,500 per linear metre (+VAT)
Factory-Lacquered MDF
Flawlessly smooth, glass-flat finish applied in controlled factory conditions. Maximum colour consistency, zero grain — the cleanest and most contemporary look. Low maintenance and highly durable for busy bedrooms.
From £2,000 per linear metre (+VAT)
Hand-Painted MDF
Applied on-site by our in-house painters using specialist hardwearing paints. Subtle brushed texture gives a bespoke, artisan quality that photographs beautifully. Choose any RAL or Farrow & Ball colour — perfect for traditional or heritage-style interiors.
From £1,500 per linear metre
What Are Shaker Style Fitted Wardrobes?
Shaker wardrobes are defined by their clean-framed panel doors — a recessed centre panel set within a simple flat frame. Originally rooted in 18th-century American craftsmanship, the shaker wardrobe has become the most enduringly popular style for fitted bedrooms across London because it sits equally well in period Victorian and Edwardian homes as it does in modern new-builds.
At Urban Wardrobes, our shaker style fitted wardrobes are manufactured in London using factory-lacquered MDF — not the foil-wrapped shortcuts used by high-street competitors. Every shaker wardrobe is spray-painted in your chosen colour using automotive-grade lacquer, giving a silky, chip-resistant finish that looks as good in year ten as it does on day one.
Why London Homeowners Choose Shaker Wardrobes
London bedrooms — especially in Victorian terraces, Edwardian semis, and period conversions — rarely come with the straight walls and standard ceiling heights that off-the-shelf furniture assumes. Our bespoke shaker wardrobes are built to your exact dimensions: alcoves, chimney breasts, sloped ceilings, angled walls. If your bedroom is awkward, a custom shaker wardrobe fitted to it will always look more cohesive than a freestanding piece pushed against an uneven wall.
- Any colour: Over 200 shades available — from Farrow & Ball Elephant’s Breath to custom RAL matches
- Built around your space: Fitted to millimetre precision, alcoves included
- Durable lacquer finish: Factory-sprayed, not foil-wrapped — no peeling or bubbling after a few years
- Fully bespoke interiors: Rails, shelves, drawers and pull-out organisers designed for how you dress
- London-based team: We design, build and install entirely in London — no third-party fitters

Foil-Wrapped vs. Factory-Lacquered MDF Doors: What’s the Difference?
Don’t be tempted by cheaper foil-wrapped finishes—they’re not only less practical and limited in colour options, but also tend to look low quality. Over time, they’re likely to discolour, peel, or fade, unlike factory-lacquered doors which offer a smooth, durable, and timeless finish.

Classic Fitted Cabinets
Customisable shaker style wardrobes, custom built in classic furniture
A lot of our customers have the same question: “Why should we choose a classic style fitted wardrobe over contemporary designs with handleless doors?”
There are many reasons for that and the first one is a Timeless Appeal. Shaker-style wardrobes add a touch of classic elegance to any bedroom and are less likely to go out of fashion.
Homes with traditional elements in interiors, including bespoke classic closets can appeal to a broader range of buyers, potentially enhancing Resale Value.
Versatility: Traditional designs offer flexibility in home decor and as a rule blend well with a variety of interior styles, whether you’re aiming for a rustic look, an English country vibe.
