What Metro manufactures for Chelsea.
Three product categories, made in one workshop. Click through to browse the full range.
Fitted Wardrobes
The most common job we do in SW3. 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.
Fitted Kitchens
We started as a wardrobe specialist. Kitchens followed naturally. A big share of our SW3 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.
Full project management from design through installation.
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.
Built around existing chimney breasts, alcoves, and architectural features.
What Chelsea homes demand of a fitted-furniture maker.
Chelsea's housing has recurring quirks. Here is how our workshop handles each on a SW3 project.
Deep cornices and 3-metre ceilings change how a wardrobe is built.
A Chelsea bedroom often runs to a 3.1m ceiling under a deep ornate cornice. A standard 2.4m wardrobe leaves a metre of dead wall above it, and run to full height it would crash straight through the cornice plaster.
We build the run wall-to-wall and floor-to-cornice, measuring to the underside of the moulding so the carcase stops below it with a clean shadow gap. The cornice stays unbroken and the full height of the room becomes usable storage.
Wide reception rooms need joinery that reads as architecture.
The reception in a Chelsea townhouse or mansion flat is wide, with a chimney breast and alcoves either side. A freestanding media unit looks lost in it, and shallow shelving wastes the alcove depth.
We fit a wall-to-wall media and library wall around the chimney breast: alcove cabinets to either side, a recessed TV bay, open shelving above, cable management hidden behind. Hand-painted, built in as if it had always been there.
Mansion-block box rooms make better dressing rooms than bedrooms.
Most Chelsea mansion flats have a small room that is too tight for a comfortable bedroom but perfect for a dressing room. Off-the-shelf units leave gaps at every wall and waste the corners.
We work every wall floor-to-ceiling: hanging on two runs, a shallow shelved wall, and a central island of drawers. The box room becomes a full walk-in with nothing freestanding and no dead space.

Common Chelsea wardrobe scenarios.
Most SW3 enquiries fall into a handful of property situations. Below is what each typically looks like.
Bedroom under a deep cornice
The situation: Owners of a Chelsea home with a 3.1m ceiling and an ornate cornice they wanted untouched. A chain quote proposed 2.4m units that left a metre of bare wall above.
What they got: A wall-to-wall Heritage Painted run, floor-to-cornice, hand-painted in Little Greene. Internal drawers and pull-down rails reached the full height. Cornice left fully exposed with an 8mm shadow gap.
Mansion-flat third room turned dressing room
The situation: A couple in a Chelsea mansion flat wanted the small third room as a dressing room. National units left gaps at every wall.
What they got: Every wall worked floor-to-ceiling: two hanging runs, a shelved wall, central island of drawers, mirror and perimeter LED. A full walk-in with nothing freestanding.
Reception media and library wall
The situation: A wide drawing room with a chimney breast and a TV on a freestanding stand that looked stranded.
What they got: A wall-to-wall Opulence media-and-library wall around the chimney breast: alcove cabinets, recessed TV bay, open shelving, hidden cables. Hand-painted deep green.
Guest bedroom full-height sliding wardrobe
The situation: A tall, narrow guest room where hinged doors would have fouled the bed and wasted the height.
What they got: Floor-to-cornice fluted-glass sliders with internal shelving and a mirror panel that doubled the light. Built tight between both side walls.
