Finishing Touches

At Simply Fitted Wardrobes, we believe the difference between good fitted furniture and exceptional fitted furniture lies in the finishing touches.

While layouts and storage determine how a space functions, it is the details such as handles, lighting, internal accessories and mechanisms that define how your furniture feels to use every day. These finishing elements are never treated as optional extras. They are an integral part of every bespoke design we create.

Whether we are designing Fitted Wardrobes, Walk-In Wardrobes or complete Fitted Bedrooms, finishing touches are carefully considered from the very beginning.

Why Finishing Touches Matter in Bespoke Furniture

Well designed finishing details do far more than enhance appearance.

They influence:

• Ease of daily use

• Organisation and visibility

• Durability over time

• The overall sense of quality and refinement

Off the shelf furniture often treats these elements as add-ons. In contrast, bespoke fitted furniture allows finishing touches to be designed in, not bolted on afterwards.

This is what transforms furniture from practical storage into a coordinated, premium solution.

Handles, Hardware & Touch Points

Handles and hardware are among the most frequently used elements of fitted furniture — yet they are often overlooked.

We help clients choose finishes that suit:

• The style of the room

• Door proportions and sight lines

• How the furniture is used daily

Options may include:

• Contemporary minimalist handles

• Traditional or heritage-inspired styles

• Integrated handle profiles for clean, flush finishes

All hardware is selected for durability, comfort and long-term performance — not just appearance.

These finishing decisions are coordinated across Matching Bedroom Furniture and wider Fitted Furniture installations to ensure visual consistency throughout the space.

Integrated Lighting for Function & Atmosphere

Lighting is one of the most transformative finishing touches in fitted furniture.

We regularly design integrated lighting solutions including:

• Internal LED lighting for wardrobes

• Drawer as well as display shelf illumination

• Sensor-activated lighting

• Subtle accent lighting for dressing areas including illuminated hanging rails

Good lighting improves visibility, organisation and usability. Especially in darker wardrobes or walk-in spaces. At the same time, it adds warmth and atmosphere, elevating the overall feel of the room.

Lighting is always planned alongside Wardrobe Interiors to ensure it enhances function rather than simply adding decoration.

Internal Accessories & Storage Enhancements

The interior finishing details are where bespoke furniture truly comes into its own.

Depending on your needs, finishing touches inside your furniture may include:

• Jewellery trays and organisers

• Pull-out shoe storage

• Belt and clothing accessory racks

• Valet rails

• Soft-close drawers and runners

These elements are designed as part of fully bespoke Wardrobe Interiors, rather than retrofitted into fixed modular systems.

This approach allows our wardrobe interiors to feel intuitive, organised and effortless to live with.

Soft-Close Mechanisms & Everyday Quality

The way furniture moves and feels is just as important as how it looks.

Soft-close hinges, drawer boxes and runners are standard considerations in our designs. These mechanisms:

• Improve longevity

• Reduce wear over time

• Enhance the sense of quality with every use

These details may not always be visible but they play a significant role in how refined your fitted furniture feels day in, day out.

Finishing Touches That Tie the Whole Room Together

One of the key advantages of bespoke Fitted Furniture is the ability to coordinate finishing details across an entire room.

Finishing touches can be aligned across:

• Fitted Wardrobes

• Walk-In Wardrobes and dressing rooms

• Matching Bedroom Furniture

• Home office areas within bedrooms

• Integrated storage and fitted cabinetry

This creates visual harmony and avoids the “piecemeal” look that can occur when furniture is sourced from multiple suppliers.

Part of a Fully Bespoke Design Process

Finishing touches are never an afterthought.

They are designed as part of our wider bespoke process alongside:

• Room layout and proportions

• Furniture configuration

• Materials as well as finishes

• Lighting and usability

This ensures every element works together both visually and practically across Fitted Bedrooms and Fitted Furniture projects.
