Bespoke Walk In Wardrobes in Hertford: The Hertingfordbury Barn
Bespoke fitted wardrobes for Sloped Ceilings. A His & Hers Walk In Wardrobe
In the heart of Hertingfordbury, Hertford we recently completed a technical installation within a large, new build barn style property. The client was looking to create a modern, calm walk in wardrobe. This fitted wardrobe project highlights the primary reason homeowners choose Simply Fitted Wardrobes over other national modular retailers. The ability to manufacture furniture that follows the exact lines of your home, regardless of sloped ceilings or complex angles. These are some of the reasons we are the best choice for fitted wardrobes in Hertfordshire.
The Project Design Challenge: Sloped Barn-Style Ceilings
The walk in wardrobe area, situated directly off the master bedroom, featured angled ceilings that made standard off-the-shelf or modular wardrobes impossible to install without massive space wastage.
While a national chain might suggest front-frame systems with oversized filler blocks to hide the gaps, our approach was rooted in Material Truth. We utilised our bespoke manufacturing process to create full height robes that were meticulously scribed to the angle of the roof, ensuring every millimetre of the SG14 property’s footprint was utilised for storage.
Walk In Wardrobe In Hertford Project Specification: The Blyton Range in Porcelain
For this His and Hers walk in wardrobe configuration, the client selected the Blyton Range in Porcelain. This fitted wardrobe range provides a modern, clean aesthetic that complements the open feel of a barn conversion while maintaining the structural integrity of a bespoke fitted wardrobe build.
Technical Breakdown of the Build:
-
External Finish: Blyton Range Porcelain.
-
Carcass Construction: 18mm rigid built cabinets (No flat-packs).
-
Internal Finish: 18mm White Linen carcass.
-
Structural Detail: 18mm solid back and top panels as standard to ensure a dust-proof, standalone unit.
-
Precision Scribing: Full-height integration to the sloped ceiling angle.
Unlike the 15mm carcasses or 9mm hardboard backs found in mass market “fitted” furniture, our 18mm rigid standard carcass ensures that even under the weight of long hanging and full drawer packs, the furniture remains structurally perfect.
Fitted Wardrobes Internal Configuration: Optimised for Utility
To maximise the amount of the useable space we designed a symmetrical His and Her layout on opposite walls, featuring a tailored mix of internal storage:
-
Double Hanging: For maximising daily wear storage.
-
Long Hanging: Dedicated space for coats as well as dresses.
-
Large Internal Drawers: Engineered with heavy duty soft close runners for smooth, long-term use.
-
Adjustable Shelving: Flexible storage for folded items, shoes and accessories.

Hertford Bespoke Fitted Wardrobes: Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Unlike modular retailers who use generic large filler blocks to hide gaps, our manufacturing process allows us to scribe every panel to the exact pitch of your roof. As seen in this Hertingfordbury project, we specialise in full height integration for barn conversions as well as period properties, ensuring no storage space is wasted in challenging architectural alcoves.
The primary difference is in our materials. While many national chains utilise 15mm flat pack style carcasses or front frame systems that leave your walls exposed, we provide a full 18mm rigid built cabinet with a solid 18mm back panel as standard. This ensures your wardrobes are dust proof, structurally independent and built to last significantly longer than mass market alternatives.
Our team is very busy installing fitted wardrobes throughout Hertford, including areas such as Bengeo, Hertford Heath as well as Hertingfordbury. Because we are a regional specialist rather than a faceless national chain, we can offer more precise installation dates as well as a dedicated local design consultant who understands the specific property styles found across East Hertfordshire.
We believe in Transparent Pricing rather than artificial sales. A typical 2-metre installation in our Blyton Range (as featured in this Porcelain walk in wardrobe project) starts at £2,651.00, including professional installation as well as our 10 year guarantee. We provide fixed benchmark price groups so you can plan your renovation with total financial confidence.
