How to measure for sliding doors
- Width: measure from wall to wall along the ceiling and along the floor, where the tracks will go. We use the larger figure – the doors overlap, so small differences are taken up.
- Height: measure from floor to ceiling on the left, in the middle and on the right. We use the smallest figure so the doors fit everywhere.
- Depth: measure from the back wall to where the front of the doors will be. Allow about 100mm for the tracks. For clothes on hangers, a total depth of around 620–650mm is ideal.
- Check for obstacles: skirting boards, coving, sockets and light switches all affect where the tracks go. Take a photo – it helps.

Common questions
How many sliding doors do I need?
Most sliding wardrobe doors are between about 630mm and 1035mm wide. As a guide, 1262–2070mm openings take 2 doors, 1893–3105mm take 3 and 2524–4140mm take 4. Where two options overlap, we'll suggest the one that looks most balanced.
Which width measurement do I use?
Measure at the top and bottom where the tracks will go and use the larger figure. Use the smallest of your height measurements.
How deep does a sliding wardrobe need to be?
Allow around 620–650mm in total for clothes on hangers, including about 100mm for the tracks. Shallower spaces work well for shelving or with pull-out rails.
Are the door widths exact?
No – the widths shown are a guide. The exact sizes depend on the profile you choose and how much the doors overlap, so we confirm them with you before we make anything.
