Can you assemble a wardrobe and chest in Hampton Hill TW12?
Yes. Send both model numbers, the wardrobe door style and the chest’s drawer count. Give the height at each end of the wardrobe position and tell us whether any wall restraint is required. Keep the fittings with the correct cartons so we can check the order when we arrive.
What should I tell you about a shared access route?
Give the building entrance and explain how the fitter can get from the unloading place to the room. Include a locked gate, steps or a narrow turn and where the cartons can be set down. Confirm permission for any private access with the person responsible for it.
Check both ends of the wardrobe position
Measure the ceiling where the wardrobe will actually stand, including the space at each end of a run. Note any sloping ceiling, coving, skirting or projection. For a wardrobe supplied with separate doors, check the room available to unpack the doors and move them into position. A frame can fit once upright without necessarily having enough clearance to raise it.
Take one measurement where the front of the wardrobe sits and another where the back meets the wall. If the room slopes, send the smallest clearance along with a picture showing the position. Include the skirting depth, any pipe that stands away from the wall and the intended door swing. A hinged front and a sliding front need different operating space.
For two frames, draw their order on a rough plan so we know which unit goes by the wall and where the drawer section sits. Confirm the landlord’s or building owner’s permission for any fixing required by the furniture instructions. If a socket will be behind the furniture, mark where it is and tell us whether it must remain accessible.
Prepare wardrobes and drawers without mixing the packs
- Measure both ends and both faces of the wardrobe position.
- Mark each furniture carton with its intended room.
- Confirm door and drawer clearance with the room door open.
- Keep fixing instructions and permissions with the order.
| Room detail | What to send |
|---|---|
| Ceiling | Lowest height and any change along the wall |
| Chest of drawers | Model, drawer count and carton references |
| Shared access | Permission, opening width and distance from unloading |
Keep the drawer fittings with the right unit
Send the chest model, drawer count and article list along with the wardrobe order. Put their cartons in separate groups. Similar runner and handle packets can belong to different pieces. If a chest will be placed beside the wardrobe, mark how far the doors and drawers project when open and check that the two items can be used independently.
If you have a chest with a shallow top drawer and deeper drawers below, check which cartons contain the fronts and leave their runners with the instructions. Give us the exact model when requesting a quote. Tell us about a damaged front before the appointment and check with the retailer whether a replacement arrives as a whole pack or as one identified part.
Decide where the chest can sit while the wardrobe is being assembled. If both are going into a compact room, it may be better to leave the chest until the wardrobe position is fixed. Clear a place for the long wardrobe panels and keep the bed and bedding out of that area. Let us know if an old item needs dismantling first.
Build the wardrobe first where working room is tight
Agree what remains accessible
We check the manuals and agree the positions before unpacking long panels. If you need to keep a room usable, tell us which pieces must remain out of the way until later. We can discuss whether to start with the wardrobe or finish the smaller unit first. Keep the room entrance and any escape route free during the build.
Report a missing part by its reference
If an essential fitting is missing, keep the carton label and photograph the relevant part or page in the instructions. Ask the retailer for the replacement using the part reference. A completed chest may still be checked and handed over even when a wardrobe cannot be finished. Try the drawers and doors before loading the storage.
| At handover | Check in the agreed position |
|---|---|
| Wardrobe doors | Open or slide without catching |
| Chest drawers | Run freely and can be used with the wardrobe open |
| Required restraints | Check with the fitter against the instructions |
Confirm access through shared areas
If cartons will come through a shared gate or passage, ask who controls access and where packs can wait without blocking an entrance. Give the full address and postcode rather than a landmark alone. If you are off the High Street or on a controlled road, check the signs for the exact place where the fitter can legally stop.
Where the retailer can only deliver to the kerb or communal door, check whether the boxes will be in the room when the fitter arrives. Give the carton dimensions and the number of steps if they still need carrying. A narrow garden path can work for small drawers and still be unsuitable for a long door pack if there is a turn at the house.
On a street with time restrictions, tell us the legal stopping point and where the vehicle can stay while work is under way. For a private bay or driveway, confirm who gives permission and whether it is available for the whole visit. Tell us who will answer the door, especially if you will not be there when the delivery and fitter arrive.
Estimate each piece, including any old furniture
Assembly is charged by time and by fitter. Send the number of frames, doors and drawers rather than only the total box count. Include any dismantling and tell us if a low ceiling changes how the unit may have to go together. Describe the access and parking arrangements and ask us to confirm the likely time. If the boxes still need collection, provide the retailer and collection details separately.
See assembly prices and IKEA furniture assembly. If you need the cartons brought to the property, ask about collection and delivery.
Before you book in Hampton Hill
How do I measure for a wardrobe under a low Hampton Hill ceiling?
Send floor-to-ceiling measurements at both ends of the proposed position. Note changes in height and share the instructions if you have them.
Can you build a chest before the matching wardrobe doors arrive?
We can discuss which pieces are independent. Send the item and pack references for everything already delivered.
Do chest drawer runners need to be identified before the visit?
Leave them with their labelled hardware pack and share the exact chest model. Avoid mixing similar runner packets between units.
What if the access gate is shared in Hampton Hill?
Check that the route can be used for the appointment and tell us who can open it. Give the width and any turn immediately beyond the gate.
