Every chimney breast is different—and so is every solution. That’s why all our fitted wardrobes are designed with your home’s unique layout, your lifestyle, and your storage needs in mind. Here’s what we can offer:

Add both style and function with floating shelves that sit above your fitted alcove wardrobes. They’re perfect for displaying books, art, or greenery—while maintaining a clean, open feel around your chimney breast.

Maximise every inch from floor to ceiling with full-height wardrobes that follow the exact contours of your alcove. Ideal for storing everything from bulky coats to spare bedding, these designs offer serious capacity without crowding the room.

For a sleek, contemporary look, we offer minimalist options like push-to-open doors or smooth handleless designs. These choices keep the focus on clean lines and seamless integration with your room’s style.

Make smaller rooms feel bigger and brighter with mirrored wardrobe doors. Not only do they reflect natural light beautifully, but they also serve a practical purpose—no need for a separate full-length mirror.

Testimonials

“We had no idea how to use the awkward spaces beside our chimney breast, but Thomas Matthew absolutely transformed it. The built in wardrobe around chimney breast now looks like part of the original room. We love the wardrobe interior—especially the soft-close drawers and clever use of depth.”
Sophie & Dan S.
“From measuring the entire wall to fitting the final handle, everything felt seamless. The team made sure we made the most of our available space with smart wardrobe features and hidden drawers. Our fitted wardrobe chimney breast project was handled with total precision—it’s now the best bit of furniture in the house.”
Leanne H.
“Our bedroom had a chimney in the middle and two empty alcoves on the side—completely wasted space. The new built in wardrobes around the fireplace are gorgeous. Deep enough for coats, full of storage options, and fully bespoke. It’s amazing how much wardrobe space we gained without changing the front of the room at all.”
Marcus W.
