What Metro manufactures for Bloomsbury.
Three product categories, made in one workshop. Click through to browse the full range.
Fitted Wardrobes
The most common job we do in WC1. Six door collections across hinged, sliding and walk-in builds. Every unit is cut to the room's actual dimensions and delivered in sections small enough for a narrow staircase. Where original cornicing exists, the wardrobe stops below it with a clean shadow gap.
18mm carcasses, doors from our six collections, painted in any of our 100+ colours.
Fitted Kitchens & Utilities
We started as a wardrobe specialist. Kitchens followed naturally. A big share of our WC1 kitchen work is in period houses: galley kitchens being opened into the dining room, side-return extensions, and cabinetry that has to slot in around the original chimney breast and services. We build the cabinetry. You choose worktops, appliances and splashbacks.
Hand-painted in-frame or slab fronts, soft-close drawers, dovetailed solid-oak boxes available.
Living & Working Spaces
A category that's grown a lot since 2020. Media walls in living rooms, home offices in reception rooms, alcove cabinets flanking original fireplaces, full bedroom suites. Most of these come up as a second project once the wardrobes are in.
Integrated LED lighting, hidden cable management, matched to existing joinery.
What Bloomsbury homes demand of a fitted-furniture maker.
Bloomsbury's period housing is full of original features people want to keep. These are the three constraints that come up on almost every WC1 project, and how our workshop handles them.
Tall sash windows and shutters have to stay clear.
A Bloomsbury bedroom is usually built around a tall sash window, sometimes with the original shutters still boxed into the reveal. A standard wardrobe along that wall covers the shutter box or fouls the sash.
We build the wall as one integrated run: floor-to-ceiling wardrobes tight to each side wall, scribed to stop at the shutter box, with a low fitted drawer-and-seat unit under the window between them.
No two chimney-breast alcoves are the same width.
Almost every Bloomsbury terrace has a chimney breast in the principal bedroom with an alcove either side, and the two are never equal. A single standard carcase for both leaves gaps and filler strips.
Each alcove is templated on its own and filled floor-to-ceiling, wall to chimney breast. Two different carcases that read as a balanced pair.
Lower-ground conversions lose height and gain a damp wall.
Many Bloomsbury houses are split into flats, and the lower-ground garden flat has reduced ceiling height around 2.3m and an external wall that can carry damp. An off-the-shelf wardrobe is the wrong height and traps moisture.
We build wall-to-wall and to the real 2.3m height, with a ventilated back so air moves behind the cabinets, scribing the run around any vault recess and shelving it out as storage.
How Metro works with Bloomsbury.
Four stages from your first phone call to the day we leave your bedroom cleaner than we found it.
Design visit at home
A designer comes to you, measures the room properly, asks how you actually use it and sketches the layout on the spot. Free. No deposit. No pressure.
Quote and samples
You get a written, itemised quote. Hand-drawn elevations. Physical samples of the doors, paints and handles you're deciding between. Take your time with it.
Built in Wembley
Once you sign off the design, your wardrobe is cut, assembled, painted and quality-checked at our HA9 workshop. Built to your room. Not assembled from standard-size carcases.
Fitted by our own team
Same Metro team, never subcontractors. Floor protection down before anything else. Installation completed in one to four days. Room left swept. 10-year guarantee starts the day we leave.
Which Metro ranges fit Bloomsbury homes best?
The ranges we recommend more than any others in WC1, based on what the area's property actually demands.
Hinged Shaker

Built-In
Best for alcovesChimney-breast alcove wardrobes templated individually and filled floor-to-ceiling with no filler strips.
Sliding Wardrobes
Best for conversionsFloor-to-ceiling sliders for period flats and lower-ground rooms, with mirror panels where the room needs light.
Heritage Painted
Best for period homesIn-frame hand-painted doors that sit naturally alongside original cornicing, shutters and sash reveals.

Four common Bloomsbury wardrobe scenarios.
Most WC1 enquiries fall into one of four property situations. Below is what each typically looks like.
Terrace bedroom with tall sash and shutters
The situation: A couple near Bedford Square with original shutters they wanted kept. A chain quote would have boarded over the shutter box.
What they got: Floor-to-ceiling wardrobes either side of the sash, scribed to the shutter box, with a fitted drawer-and-seat run under the window. Shutters still fold, sash still slides.
Back bedroom with unequal chimney alcoves
The situation: Owners who had been told both alcoves were the same size when they clearly were not.
What they got: Each alcove templated separately and filled floor-to-ceiling under the picture rail. Two carcases that read as a matched pair.
Lower-ground garden flat with a low ceiling
The situation: A garden flat with a 2.3m ceiling and a slightly damp front wall by the vault.
What they got: A wall-to-wall run built to 2.3m with a ventilated back, scribed around the vault and shelving it out. No trapped damp, no wasted corners.
Period conversion needing a compact dressing area
The situation: A one-bed conversion where the bedroom had an awkward return beside the chimney.
What they got: A fitted run turning the corner around the chimney return, hanging plus drawers, hand-painted to match the period trim.
