Inside the Wellington door
The Wellington adds a fine 6mm groove line inside its 90mm frames — a quiet extra shadow that reads bespoke from across the room. Like every door in the MDF Painted collection it is machined from a single piece of 18mm E1-grade MDF — the profile routed, never joined — then primed in polyester and finished in polyurethane matt paint. No joints means nowhere for paint to crack: the flaw that ages painted joinery simply cannot happen here.
Why this build matters
Wellington MDF Painted Wardrobe, Made to Measure in London
The Wellington Door · MDF MATT PAINTEDThe detailed one — 90mm frames traced with a fine 6mm groove — painted to order on a seamless board. Handmade in our Wembley workshop.
About This Style
The Wellington adds a fine 6mm groove line inside its 90mm frames — a quiet extra shadow that reads bespoke from across the room. This is the Wellington — designated Mdf matt painted in the catalogue — the painted look engineered onto a seamless board.
How it works: the 90mm frame profile is machined from a single piece of 18mm E1-grade MDF, primed in polyester and finished in polyurethane matt paint with a soft 2mm painted radius edge. Because there are no joints, there is nowhere for paint to crack — the painted look without painted joinery’s one weakness. Soft-close Blum hinges throughout.
Make it yours: painted to order — shades matched at your free home visit — with ten Kronospan interior colours; floor-to-ceiling runs, alcoves, walk-ins and corners, every carcass cut to your room in our Wembley workshop. Compare the family with the door styles above, or step up to hand-painted solid timber.
Every Wellington wardrobe is made to measure in North London and installed by our own fitters with a 10-year guarantee.
