Hawthorne Walk-In Wardrobe London

The Hawthorne Walk-In Wardrobe turns a corner. Rather than running down one wall and stopping, it wraps the internal angle of the room in a continuous L, which is how you get 5.6 metres of storage into a space that has no single wall long enough to hold it.

It is a two-tone piece. The carcase and end panels are a soft sage green, while every interior is lined in oak, so the wardrobe reads quietly against the wall and warm the moment you look into it. The contrast does something practical as well: pale oak behind your clothes makes colours easier to tell apart than a dark lining does.

How it works: the Hawthorne is built from 18mm E1-grade MFC, with the sage green carried across the outside faces and the oak decor through every bay, shelf and drawer box. The drawers are handleless, opening on a recessed shadow gap between the fronts, which keeps the oak faces unbroken.

Warm LED strips run along the top of each hanging bay and down the vertical dividers, so light falls onto the clothes rather than onto the floor. In a corner arrangement that matters more than usual, because the internal angle is the part of the room daylight reaches last.

Designed around how you use your room

A corner run is the answer when a room is broadly square rather than long. The Hawthorne shown measures 5600mm across its two legs and stands 2800mm high, and every bay within it was sized for what goes in it.

• Double hang bays for shirts, trousers and jackets
• Full-height hanging for coats and longer garments
• A dedicated corner unit that keeps the internal angle usable
• Open shelving above every bay for folded clothing
• Handleless drawers in oak
• Shoe storage at the base of the run
• Warm LED strips to the bay heads and the vertical dividers
• Sage green outside, oak throughout the interior

Built for everyday use: the corner is the part most fitted wardrobes waste. Here it is given its own unit with hanging on both returns, so the angle holds clothes rather than becoming the place things disappear into.

The Hawthorne shown here is 5600mm wide and 2800mm high, which is a genuinely large commission. The same design scales down: the two legs of the L can be different lengths, and the bays are drawn to suit the wall you actually have rather than dividing a run into equal thirds.

Each run is 600mm deep, the width of a coat hanger, and the same on every Metro walk-in.

Manufactured in our Wembley workshop

A corner is the hardest thing to get right in fitted furniture, because two runs have to meet on an angle the room rarely provides at a true 90 degrees. Your Hawthorne is surveyed on site first, and the return is cut to the angle that is actually there.

It is then precision-manufactured in our HA9 Wembley factory. Our beam saw optimises board usage to reduce waste, CNC and six-sided drilling machine the components accurately, and industrial edge-banding finishes every visible edge — which on a two-tone piece means the sage green and the oak both stop cleanly where they should.

Every walk-in is measured and designed around your actual room before manufacture and professional installation.

Quality you can rely on: your Metro fitted wardrobe comes with a 10-year parts and labour guarantee, giving you added confidence in your investment.
