How to Get Your Custom Wardrobe Right: Swing vs. Sliding Doors, Layout & Dimensions

Swing vs. sliding doors, internal zoning and the dimensions that make a custom wardrobe work.

Same wall, very different outcome: a well-planned wardrobe is a joy for ten years; a bad one annoys you daily. The difference is door type, internal layout and dimensions.

What to decide

  • Door type: swing (casement) doors are simpler, cheaper and don’t block your view; sliding doors save walkway space in tight rooms but only open half at a time.
  • Internal layout: zone for long-hang, short-hang, folded, drawers and bedding to match your wardrobe — don’t copy a showroom.
  • Golden dimensions: hanging heights, shelf gaps and drawer depths tuned to your height and habits — that’s the whole point of custom.
  • Moisture details: ventilation holes and moisture-resistant boards keep clothes from turning musty in Singapore’s climate.

Off-the-shelf wardrobes waste space with fixed sizes. BTO Group Reno builds 1:1 to your wall, previews the internal layout in 3D, and only starts once you approve.
