FAQs

Common questions about building your custom wardrobe.

What is the benefit of working with an accredited Master Joiner for a custom wardrobe?

A masterfully crafted wardrobe is about more than just shelving; it’s about maximising space and preserving your belongings. Unlike "off-the-shelf" systems, Gill Joinery provides truly bespoke solutions. This means we can work with sloped ceilings, heritage alcoves, or specialised storage needs, like integrated lighting or velvet-lined drawers, ensuring your storage fits your space and lifestyle perfectly.

How long does it take to design and install a custom dressing room?

While the complexity of each wardrobe varies, a custom closet or dressing room fit-out typically takes between 8 to 12 weeks from final design approval. This timeframe allows us to precision-craft your joinery in our Christchurch workshop. Our team then manages a seamless installation, ensuring your daily routine is disrupted as little as possible.

Do you manage the full installation, including lighting and mirrors?

Yes, we provide full project management for your wardrobe or dressing room fit-out. If your design includes integrated LED lighting, specialised glasswork, or stone-topped islands, we coordinate with our trusted network of local tradespeople to ensure every element is finished to our exacting Master Joiner standards.

Can you work from my interior designer's plans, or do you design the layout?

We offer both services. If you have existing plans from an architect or designer, we can translate those into high-precision, technical joinery specifications. If you're starting from scratch, we can collaborate with you to design a gorgeous, functional wardrobe layout that prioritises ease-of-use and elegant organisation.

How durable are the hardware and finishes in a custom wardrobe?

Wardrobe doors and drawers are high-use items, so we prioritise longevity. As Master Joiners, we use only premium hardware, such as soft-close hinges and runners, that carry their own long-term warranties. Our specialty is heirloom joinery, artfully-crafted to remain the organised heart of your home for generations.
