Every door is made to measure around your room, your storage requirements and your preferred finish — then manufactured and professionally fitted by the Metro Home Interiors team.
The Master Suite Commission
A whole-loft master commission. Hanging walls under the highest pitch, dressing bench beneath the dormer window, eaves drawers to the knee walls, integrated lighting throughout. Typically a 4-5m ridge-to-floor commission.
The Compact Loft
Designed for sub-3m ridge heights — Victorian terrace conversions, mews-house lofts, narrow Edwardian roofs. Single wall of stepped-down wardrobes, double hanging where ceiling permits, drawer banks where it doesn't.
The Dormer-Flanked
Wardrobes built either side of a dormer window with an integrated window seat between, doors stepped down to match the surrounding pitch. The dormer becomes the focal point of the room rather than a break in the joinery rhythm.
The Eaves Drawer Bank
A dedicated commission for the knee-wall zone. Deep pull-out drawers along the lowest part of the slope — typically 600-900mm tall — where ceiling height is too low for hanging. Often combined with a separate hanging wall under the high pitch.
The Statement Loft Walk-In
A walk-in dressing room carved out of the loft. Central island or dressing bench, wardrobes on both pitched walls, integrated lighting throughout. The most-photographed loft commission we build — usually paired with a Velux skylight overhead.
The Office & Wardrobe Combo
A hybrid loft commission for clients using the loft as both bedroom and workspace. Wardrobes on one pitched wall, integrated desk and shelving on the other, separated by a low knee-wall console that doubles as a room divider.

Common Questions About Classic Wardrobe Doors
Choosing a wardrobe door style can be a little overwhelming, especially when there are so many finishes and details to consider. Here are some of the questions we’re most often asked about our Classic Collection. If you’re still unsure, your Metro designer can talk you through the options during your free home visit.
A Shaker wardrobe door features a recessed centre panel surrounded by a simple square frame. Its clean proportions make it one of the most versatile choices for bespoke fitted wardrobes, working particularly well in both period and contemporary homes.
A Shaker door has a straightforward framed design, while a Mock In-Frame door is detailed to create the appearance of a traditional cabinet constructed with an in-frame design. Mock In-Frame generally gives a more furniture-like and architectural appearance.
Shaker, Lined Shaker and Mock In-Frame styles can all work beautifully in Victorian and Edwardian properties. The right choice depends on the architecture of your home and how traditional or contemporary you want the finished room to feel.
