Can you assemble a modular wardrobe and chest in East Dulwich?
Yes. Send the frame, fronts, inserts and chest models, along with the final layout. Tell us where the two pieces will stand and which drawers face each other. We can quote for the agreed list and discuss access and any wall restraint before arranging the visit.
Which wardrobe measurements should I send for an East Dulwich bedroom?
Measure the ceiling at both ends of the wardrobe, the wall width and the gap to the bed or opposite chest. Include the skirting and show any sockets or pipes in a photo. Check the manufacturer’s clearance for fitting doors and raising the frame where applicable.
Quote from the final furniture plan
The quote depends on the wardrobe bays, door type, inserts, chest and property access. Include separate accessory kits and the location of every carton. If you need dismantling or help getting long packs upstairs, mention that when requesting the quote so we can confirm the agreed work before the appointment.
See assembly prices and See IKEA furniture assembly. If you need the cartons brought to the property, ask about collection and delivery.
Compare the planner with the final order
Send the retailer drawing that shows the bays, doors, drawers and hanging rails. Mark any changes made since it was saved. If a wide shelf has been replaced by two narrow inserts, check which frame each kit is meant for. Keep the cartons labelled until we can identify the parts together.
For a corner or extension bay, check whether there is a shared side panel or a separate support. Identify the boxes for rails, baskets and drawers, especially if they look similar. If a replacement carton has arrived, tell us which line on the original order it replaces.
Decide where you want hanging space for longer clothes before we install inserts. Use the model’s available fixing positions when choosing shelf heights. Tell us which side needs easy access to the drawers and show how the doors open in the room.
Check the complete storage arrangement
Lay out the compatible parts
We match the frames and interior kits against the agreed plan and confirm the positions with you. If a drawer or basket needs to move within the available fitting positions, discuss it while the frame is open. We review any required restraint and the intended wall before fitting it.
Try the drawers with the fronts in place
Open the wardrobe and chest from where you normally stand. Check that drawers pass any hinges and that room access remains clear. Keep the manual and extra fittings grouped by model so you can identify the shelf or rail parts if you decide to adjust the layout later.
| Room detail | Measurement to send |
|---|---|
| Wardrobe wall | Height at both ends and skirting |
| Opposite chest | Full drawer extension |
| Route to bedroom | Longest carton and tightest turn |
Check the chest and wardrobe in use
Draw the chest opposite the wardrobe if that is how the room is arranged. Measure from front to front and compare it with the depth of an extended drawer and the opening of the wardrobe. Allow space to stand on either side, particularly if the bed and the room door share that route.
Take a photo from the doorway that shows the ceiling, floor and sides of the wardrobe wall. Measure at both ends. A large skirting board or uneven floor can affect the unit’s position. Share any wall restraint instructions and confirm permission where required.
If there is an old chest in the new wardrobe’s footprint, tell us whether it will be moved or dismantled. Take out its contents and agree where it or its parts can wait. Keep the route into the room clear so you can reach both pieces during the changeover.
Check the reach of a wardrobe pull-out rail when the adjacent chest is in its usual position. A wall mirror or bedside light can also restrict where you stand to use the furthest bay. Include both on the room plan.
Confirm the street and room access
Southwark identifies East Dulwich and Dog Kennel Hill separately in its parking information. Use the complete SE22 address and check the signs for your own bay. Tell us how to get to the room, especially if the cartons are stored on another floor or the flat has a separate side entrance.
Keep the longest frame and door cartons on a clear route to the room. Give us the carton dimensions if the stairs turn or the landing is narrow. Leave the packaging on mirror panels as directed and send photos of any damage before the appointment.
If a neighbour uses the same entry, explain which door or bell is yours. Let us know if there is a short loading window or if legal parking is further away. A note about the correct entrance can prevent delays where several flats share the same street number.

| Part | Check against the plan |

Before you book in East Dulwich
Can I change the shelf positions on assembly day?
Show us the new positions before fitting starts. We can follow the compatible options in the manufacturer’s instructions and check how they affect other inserts.
Do the drawers and wardrobe need to open at the same time?
Check both separately and together if the pieces face each other. Leave space for someone to stand in front of the open storage they use most.
Should I send my first planning drawing or the order confirmation?
Send the final plan and the order confirmation. Mark anything you changed after ordering, including replacement or cancelled cartons.
Can I add a pull-out basket to an already planned bay?
Send the basket and frame models and check the available fitting positions. Doors, hinges and other inserts can affect how far the basket can travel.
Where should I leave an old chest before the visit?
If it will remain in the room, keep it outside the assembly area and check that its drawers still open. Tell us if you want it dismantled.
