Ashbrook Kitchens and Joinery designs and builds custom wardrobes for Ulladulla, Milton, Mollymook and Burrill Lake. A robe is the cheapest storage in the house to get right and the most annoying to get wrong, because the opening is fixed and a stock unit either leaves a gap at one end or loses you a whole hanging bay. We build to the opening as measured and machine it on our own CNC at Huskisson.

A built in robe is made to the opening, so the opening has to be measured properly first. We take the width at the top, the middle and the floor, and the height at both ends, then build to the tightest of those numbers and close out the difference with a scribed filler rather than leaving a shadow line down one side.
A walk in is a room, so it is set out like one. We work out the walking space first, then hang the long and short runs where the door swing allows, and keep the top shelf at a height you can actually reach from the floor rather than one that needs a chair every time.
Internals are drawn from a list of what is going in, not from a standard configuration. Count the long hanging, the shirts, the drawers you want and the shoes, and the shelf spacings and rail heights follow from that. Changing the mix later means new holes, so it is worth settling before the panels are drilled.
Ashbrook is owned and run by a qualified builder with more than 15 years in the industry, which matters more on a robe than people expect. Wardrobe openings are usually framed before anyone thinks about what is going in them, so being able to read the framing and set out against it is what stops a robe from being a compromise.
Every robe is drawn as a 3D render before it is cut, so the hanging, shelving and drawer layout is agreed before the panels are drilled. Manufacturing happens in our own Huskisson workshop.
The same robes are described on our wardrobes page for the wider Shoalhaven. If the job covers more than bedroom storage, our Ulladulla joinery and cabinetry page is the place to start.
Storage planned around what you own, not around a standard shelf height.
