We are not an emergency call-out service — carpentry is planned work, and we will give you a start date we can actually keep rather than a response time we cannot.
If something is unsafe right now, our sister trades cover that: Cardiff & Caerphilly Plumbers and Cardiff & Caerphilly Electricians both take emergency call-outs.

But the track runs in front of the carcass and takes about 100mm of internal depth with it, and because one door has to pass behind another, only half the opening is ever exposed at once.
Hinged doors give you the whole opening and the full depth, at the cost of about 600mm of clear floor in front to swing into. In a room where the bed is close to the wardrobe wall, that 600mm is the deciding factor — and it is worth measuring on the floor before choosing, not estimating.
The honest summary: sliding for a narrow room, hinged where the floor allows it, and build deeper if you want sliding without losing storage. Our wardrobes page covers the styles, and the dimensions guide has the rest of the numbers.
