About This Style

The Highclere Over-Bed Wardrobe brings a shaker run into a period bedroom. Olive green towers with brass knobs stand either side of the bed, a bridging cabinet spans the headboard beneath the cornice, and bedside cabinets with lit niches carry the lamps. The run is drawn to sit within an arched room with framed prints above the bed.

Crafted from 18mm MDF with the shaker recess routed into a single board, the doors carry the olive green finish over face, frame and recess, with brass knobs and concealed soft-close hinges on a solid 18mm carcass.

Every over-bed wardrobe is made to measure and manufactured in our Wembley, North London workshop using precision CNC machinery. Our team manages everything from the design consultation to professional installation.

Backed by a 10-Year Parts and Labour Guarantee, the Highclere gives a period room fitted storage that looks as though it was always there.

Highclere Over-Bed Wardrobe

The Highclere Over-Bed Wardrobe is a made-to-measure bedroom storage system that combines shaker fitted wardrobes with a bridging cabinet above the bed, drawn for a period room with a cornice, an arch and tall windows.

Full-height olive green towers with brass knobs stand either side of the bed, the bridge spans the headboard, and bedside cabinets with lit niches carry the lamps. The run is scribed to the cornice so the room keeps its detail.

How it works: the shaker recess is routed into a single 18mm MDF board, so there are no frame-and-panel joints to open, and the olive green finish runs over face, frame and recess. The carcass is solid 18mm, hinges are concealed soft-close, and the brass knobs are through-bolted.

Fixed as one run: the bridging cabinets are designed as part of the complete fitted run. They are securely fixed to the wall and supported by the full-height wardrobe towers on either side, rather than functioning as independent cabinets simply suspended above the bed.

Designed around how you use your bedroom

An over-bed wardrobe needs to balance everyday storage with the less frequently used space above the bed. We therefore design the internal layout around what you need to store and how often you need to access it.

  • Single and double hanging rails
  • Full-height hanging for dresses and coats
  • Adjustable shelving
  • Soft-close internal drawers
  • Shoe storage
  • Pull-out accessories
  • Over-bed bridging cabinets
  • Storage for bedding, luggage and seasonal items
  • Integrated bedside storage
  • Built-in dressing table or desk where the wall allows
  • Integrated LED strip lighting (warm white, white and yellow)

Manufactured in our Wembley workshop

Your over-bed wardrobe is made to measure and precision-manufactured in our HA9 Wembley factory. Our in-house cutting-edge technology works alongside advanced factory machinery to ensure each component is produced to exact specifications, from the approved design through to production.

Our intelligent beam saw optimises board usage to minimise waste, while intelligent CNC and 6 side drilling technology accurately machines components and drilling points. Industrial edge-banding equipment provides consistent finished edges across the furniture components.

Every Highclere is designed around your actual room, bed position, wall and ceiling height before manufacture and professional installation.

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

“Really pleased with our fitted bedroom furniture from Metro. The design and finish look great, the storage works well, and the installation team did a good job. A few small snagging points were handled very professionally. We’re very happy with the result and already thinking about our next project with them!”

Alan SweeneyGoogle review

“Incredible piece of work in terms of design, quality build and installation. This is my second wardrobe from Metro, eventhough you feel it bit expensive but every penny worth it. Highly recommend.”

Girish G BGoogle review

“Highly recommend them! Their service and products are excellent, and the staff is always professional and knowledgeable. Our designer, Nassy, visited our house and took measurements. We later met her at their showroom, where we were able to see the quality of the material and choose the colours. Nassy also sent us a 3D render of what the wardrobe would look like, which helped us visualize the end product. The fitting team was a delight! They made sure we were happy with the end result and left the apartment immaculately clean. We're looking forward to Metro working on our other bedroom furniture!”

Highclere Over-Bed Wardrobe FAQs

Highclere Over-Bed Wardrobe FAQs

What is the Highclere Over-Bed Wardrobe?
A shaker fitted run in olive green with brass knobs: wardrobe towers either side of the bed, a bridging cabinet above the headboard and bedside cabinets with lit niches, drawn for a period bedroom.
Will it work with a cornice or picture rail?
Yes. The towers are scribed to the ceiling and cornice at the survey, and the bridge sits beneath the cornice line so the room keeps its period detail.
Can I have a different green?
Yes. Olive is shown, and sage, reed and fjord green are in the range, along with over 90 other finishes. Your designer brings the samples to the design visit.
How long does it take?
Your over-bed wardrobe is manufactured at our Wembley factory and installed within 21 days of your order being confirmed.
Is an over-bed wardrobe safe above the headboard?
Yes. The bridging cabinets are engineered as part of the fitted run, fixed securely to the wall and supported by the full-height towers on either side, rather than hanging from the wall alone. Soft-close hinges are fitted as standard throughout.
Where are they made?
Every piece is handmade in our own factory in Wembley, North London (HA9), and fitted by our own employed installers, never subcontracted. Every installation is backed by our 10-year guarantee.
Edge Detail

The Three Over-Bed Edge Details

On an over-bed run the edges are where the towers meet the walls and where the bridge meets the towers. These are the details we work to. Your designer specifies them at the survey, once the wall and the bed position are known.
01
2mm ABS Softened Edge HIGHCLERE OVER-BED
A thicker 2mm band with the corner softened to a small radius. It shrugs off knocks better than a square 1mm edge, which matters on the doors and drawer fronts at bedside height — the ones opened every night — and on any tower door a child reaches. Specified per door, so the bridge can stay square while the bedside goes softened.

02
Scribed Wall Edge
Where a tower meets the wall or the ceiling, its end panel is cut to the line of the plaster at your survey and then banded, so the wardrobe closes against the wall without a filler strip. On an over-bed run both towers are scribed, and the bridge between them is made to the gap that leaves — which is why the whole wall has to be measured before anything is cut.
