This blend of natural material and customisable design elements transforms each door into a statement piece, elevating the aesthetic of any room they grace. Their robust construction paired with the warmth and authenticity of real wood ensures that these doors are not just functional, but a true reflection of our craftsmanship and your style.
Art Work On Sliding Door Panels
Dress up your wardrobe doors with a personal print design. Internal Sliding Doors in your home occupy a large space and can effectively be viewed as a blank canvas just waiting for you to be creative.

Personal Totems, Palm Fronds, Lotus flowers, Frangipanis, botanicals are very popular.
So too are photographic works and replicating original artworks (with the artists permission of course)
We have a fantastic range of artwork on file for you to use and we are always interested in bringing your one-off pieces to life.
Timber Sliding Doors with Glass Panels
Our contemporary approach to traditional “timber panel sliding doors”. The INFINITY doors are elegantly floating pieces of polished edge glass, framed vertically in hand selected timber of your choice.
Read More
We regularly colour match to work with existing floors and furniture.
The Glass panels add a sleek new level of sophistication and lightness to your room.
Our Infinity Sliding Doors can also be made as a “Top Hung” sliding door…. a classy alternative to the much maligned “barn doors”.
The “Moving Wall”
The clever bit here is that what appears to be a moving wall is actually a set of sliding doors, concealing closets and the entrance to the bathroom. The design of these doors features a multi-panel setup, combining white glass with striking black frames. This choice contrasts superbly with the Turkish pattern tiles, bringing a distinct flair and a touch of sophistication to the space.
Ventilated Sliding doors
Our ventilated sliding doors continue to inspire our clients. Not only for the ability to customise but they also offer airflow.

The image showcasing our ventilated sliding wardrobe doors isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s a clever blend of functionality and style. With bronze mirrors elegantly framed by top and bottom panels of powder-coated bronze mesh, these doors elevate the room’s character while introducing that essential airflow to keep your closet from feeling stuffy. It’s a thoughtful design choice that marries practicality with a touch of luxury, ensuring your space stays fresh and stylish.
Classic Multi Panel White Decor Glass Sliding Doors.
Our multi-panel internal sliding doors, customisable with anywhere from 2 to 8 panels and in materials of your choosing, have become a hit in hallways, bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchens alike. Opt for glass finishes to add that extra gloss and shine to your space, or select the standard 9mm melamine panels for a more subdued, understated look.
Read More
Alternatively mix up the panels with glass and melamine. The beauty of these doors lies in their versatility, allowing you to tailor the finish to fit the unique style and vibe of your room perfectly.
Louvre Sliding Doors
Our favoured sliding louvre doors are more than just a door; they’re a statement of style that distinctly enhances any room in your abode. Tailored from your choice of timber and available in either vertical slats or a basket weave pattern, these doors introduce a depth of texture and a complexity of detail that’s bound to capture attention.
Read More
Their robust design not only stands up to the hustle and bustle of high traffic areas but does so with grace, ensuring they remain a standout feature of your home’s design, blending durability with aesthetics seamlessly.
Built In Wardrobes for Kids Rooms
It’s all about fun and creativity.
The Lego insert panel on the front door provides a fun point of interest for any child’s room.
Read More
The main panels are generally white glass or magnetic whiteboard. Both surfaces can be drawn on with whiteboard markers for your children to be creative or you can leave those handy reminders… “clean up your room” or “don’t forget to walk the dog!” lol.
The Secret Mirror
What about the Mirror?
Over the years there has been customers that love mirror sliding doors and customers that don’t.
Read More
There is not much middle ground here you either like them or you don’t.
We designed a solution for the people that don’t like them but still want a dress mirror.
The Secret Mirror Sliding Door. This door hides conviently behind your other doors waiting to be pulled out for use.
Up Cycle Elements into your Wardrobe Panels
The recent profusion of floating flooring options has opened up a design concept where we incorporate some of the left-over floorboards into the sliding doors.
Read More
This provides a harmonious finish to the room and can really “tie- in” smaller spaces, where additional materials will only create a cluttered mish-mash of finishes.
The Doors look very smart and they are smart for the environment too!
Utilising the short ends of flooring off a job site, that may otherwise have ended up in landfill, is just good sense!
The Impact of Carl’s Experience on Your Choice
Leveraging Carl’s two decades of expertise means access to insights that go beyond the superficial. It’s about understanding the nuances of installation, the subtleties of design integration, and the long-term benefits of choosing quality craftsmanship.

A Journey of Innovation:
From Wardrobe World Darwin to Form Function Wardrobes
In 1999, a small initiative known as Wardrobe World Darwin, later rebranded as Form Function Wardrobes, began revolutionising how sliding doors were perceived. Carl, at the helm of this transformation, brought more than 20 years of nuanced, passionate craftsmanship to the table. His journey wasn’t just about fabricating sliding doors; it was about crafting experiences that harmonise with the very essence of your home.

FAQs: Everything You Need to Know
How do I Choose the Right Sliding Wardrobe Door for my Home?
Choosing the right sliding wardrobe door is all about understanding the vibe of your space and what you’re aiming to achieve. Consider the room’s existing decor and how a door can complement or enhance it. Think about the material, colour, and functionality—whether you’re leaning towards a mirror finish to add depth or a solid colour to match your interior. I’m here to guide you through the options and help find the perfect match for your home.
Can Sliding Wardrobe Doors be Customised to Fit my Space?
Absolutely! Customisation is key to ensuring your sliding wardrobe doors fit not just the size of your space but also its character. Whether you’re working with a uniquely sized closet or you have specific design features in mind, we can tailor each door to meet your requirements, ensuring a seamless fit and a personalised touch.
What are the Benefits of Choosing Sliding Doors over Traditional Doors?
Sliding doors offer a slew of advantages over their traditional counterparts. They’re space-savers, sliding parallel to the wall rather than swinging outwards, which makes them ideal for tighter spaces. Plus, their sleek design can be a major aesthetic upgrade, offering a modern look that can be customised to suit any interior style. Not to mention, they provide easier access to the full closet, making your daily routine a bit smoother.
How do Carl’s Designs Integrate with Different Interior Styles?
My designs are all about versatility and adaptability. I take pride in crafting sliding doors that can blend seamlessly with any interior style, from contemporary minimalism to classic elegance. By focusing on the finer details and the overarching aesthetic of your space, I ensure that each design not only meets your functional needs but also enhances your home’s visual appeal.
What Maintenance do Sliding Wardrobe Doors Require?
Maintenance for sliding wardrobe doors is thankfully minimal, ensuring they remain a practical choice for busy homes. Regular dusting and a gentle clean of the tracks and glass or panel surfaces will keep them operating smoothly and looking their best. For doors with a mirror or glass finish, a simple wipe down with a glass cleaner will do the trick, while timber finishes might just need a soft cloth and an appropriate wood cleaner to keep them in tip-top condition.
What about the Elfa top hung sliding doors https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbqagOR3lpo
You left out the best!
There’s no ugly track at the bottom with these, and they’re soft close
Hi Jules, Thank you for your comment. Unfortunately, the elfa Top Hung Doors are not available outside of the EU. We do offer Top Hung Doors that have no sill tracks.
