Questions people ask us
8 answersNot at all. Most are painted with satin or eggshell finishes that are easy to wipe clean and durable against daily use.
No—white shaker wardrobes are incredibly versatile. They fit into modern, coastal, farmhouse, and minimalist themes equally well.
Yes. Try mixing white doors with a woodgrain top, contrasting handles, or mirrored inserts for a custom finish.
A fitted wardrobe from AF Fitted Wardrobes starts at £2,400 for a 3m run, including design, manufacture and installation. The final price depends on width, height, internal layout and finish — your free design visit gives you a fixed, itemised quote with no obligation.
About 14 days from approved design to installed wardrobe. That covers the 3D design, manufacture in our Greater Manchester workshop, and a typical one-to-two day fit.
Yes. We measure your space, talk through layouts and produce a 3D visual free of charge. There is no obligation and no deposit taken at that stage.
Every installation carries a 10-year material guarantee, and we handle any aftercare directly rather than through a third party.
That is exactly where fitted furniture pays for itself. Loft eaves, coombed ceilings, chimney breasts, bay windows and under-stairs voids are all made to measure, so awkward angles become usable storage instead of dead space.
Still unsure? — we'll measure up and tell you honestly whether fitted is the right call for your room.
