Made in Wembley, fitted in Buckhurst Hill.

Our workshop sits seventeen miles from IG9, about a 30-minute drive most of the day. Close enough that a designer can come to you, your wardrobe can be built that same week, and a fitter can return for any small adjustment without it becoming a project.

Core serviceFitted wardrobes in Buckhurst Hill

Fitted Wardrobes

The most common job we do in IG9. Ten ranges 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 Georgian staircase. Where original cornicing exists, the wardrobe stops below it with a clean shadow gap.

Solid 18mm carcase, hand-painted in Farrow & Ball or Little Greene.

Whole-home commissionsFitted kitchens in Buckhurst Hill

Fitted Kitchens

We started as a wardrobe specialist. Kitchens followed naturally. A big share of our IG9 kitchen work happens in Victorian galleys being opened up, and in canal-side conversions where the cabinetry has to slot in around immovable services. We build the cabinetry. You choose worktops, appliances, and splashbacks.

Living & Media Walls

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.

What Buckhurst Hill homes demand of a fitted-furniture maker.

Buckhurst Hill's housing has recurring quirks. Here is how our workshop handles each on a IG9 project.

A bay window swallows the best wall in the bedroom.
Bay windows Buckhurst Hill design constraint · 01

A bay window swallows the best wall in the bedroom.

The Buckhurst Hill problem

The front bedroom of a Buckhurst Hill house is often dominated by a splayed bay window. It is the obvious wall for a wardrobe, but a standard unit either blocks the window or leaves awkward dead returns to each side.

Metro's manufacturing answer

We fit floor-to-ceiling wardrobes tight to each side wall flanking the bay, with a low fitted seat and drawers across the bay itself. The window stays clear and the whole wall works as one run.

The chimney-breast alcoves are never the same width.
Chimney alcoves Buckhurst Hill design constraint · 02

The chimney-breast alcoves are never the same width.

The Buckhurst Hill problem

Like most period Buckhurst Hill terraces, the back bedroom has a chimney breast with an alcove either side, and the two are rarely equal. One standard carcase for both leaves filler strips on one side and a unit that will not shut on the other.

Metro's manufacturing answer

Each alcove is templated and built on its own, filled floor-to-ceiling and wall to chimney breast. Two different carcases that read as a matched pair from the doorway.

Loft bedrooms lose half the wall to a sloping ceiling.
Loft conversions Buckhurst Hill design constraint · 03

Loft bedrooms lose half the wall to a sloping ceiling.

The Buckhurst Hill problem

A Buckhurst Hill loft conversion adds a bedroom but a sloping ceiling that cuts the usable wall height in half. Freestanding wardrobes simply will not stand under the slope.

Metro's manufacturing answer

We scribe the wardrobe into the eaves, following the roof pitch so units run from floor to slope with no gap above. The lowest part becomes drawers and shoe storage instead of dead space.

How Buckhurst Hill homes actually use Metro

Common Buckhurst Hill wardrobe scenarios.

Most IG9 enquiries fall into a handful of property situations. Below is what each typically looks like.

Scenario 01

Front bedroom with a splayed bay

The situation: A family on Queens Road wanted storage on the bay wall. A chain quote blocked half the window with a standard unit.

What they got: Two floor-to-ceiling wardrobes flanking the bay with a fitted window seat and drawers across it. Hand-painted, brass handles. The bay stays the feature of the room.

Range: Shaker Project size: ~£5,200
Scenario 02

Back bedroom with unequal chimney alcoves

The situation: Owners frustrated that two previous quotes used one carcase size for both alcoves, leaving gaps.

What they got: Each alcove templated separately and filled floor-to-ceiling under the picture rail. Two carcases that line up perfectly from the doorway.

Range: Built-In Project size: ~£4,300
Scenario 03

Loft-conversion main bedroom under the slope

The situation: A new Buckhurst Hill loft bedroom where freestanding wardrobes could not stand under the sloping ceiling.

What they got: Wardrobes scribed into the eaves following the roof pitch, the low end built out as drawers. Floor-to-slope, no dead space.

Range: Loft & Eaves Project size: ~£6,100
Scenario 04

Tight box bedroom needing mirror sliders

The situation: A small third bedroom where hinged doors fouled the bed.

What they got: Floor-to-ceiling sliding wardrobe with one mirror panel and internal drawers. Built wall-to-wall with no door swing.

Range: Sliding Door Project size: ~£4,000
