Sliding Wardrobe Doors

[mrbojangles]

Does anybody know where you can buy sliding wardrobe door systems. I haven't seen any around Chaiyaphum but I'll be in Patters for a few days next month. They don't have to be the same design as these but it's this effect I want rather than free standing wardrobes.

[IMHO]

SB Furniture (the one's with a design centre), Index Living Mall, and Modernform all sell these.

The issue with doors is humidity - much better to have free air circulation and build open without doors in my opinion. They can look fine as free standing or built in. If you have to have doors the old solution was to have heat generating electric light on all the time. Musty odor clothing is not pleasant.

When I built my house I built walk-in closets in the bedrooms, big enough to use as dressing rooms. They have open built in hanging racks and open shelves to stack clothing and a regular hinged door. There are no wardrobes in the house. Also a walk-in pantry and ,of course, a Buddha room!

Thanks for that IMHO. I'll check them out.

Mmmm. Food for thought there Lop. Never thought of the humidity and musty smell. Not really keen on having opened up as I'm pretty much a minimalist and like things to be looking tidy. Do you reckon a louvre type door would allow enough circulation?

I think this circulation thing is being over thought.. You do open up at least one of these doors, then walk around your walk-in closet when you want to change change clothes no?

After riding visa run vans full of expats have to admit the musty smell may not be that much of an issue.

The Hafele Showroom in Bangkok and in Phuket had some very slick door systems when I visited those showrooms. The Bangkok showroom of Hafele had quite a selection of high quality pieces, with prices posted on Soi Sukhumvit 64. The door hardware at the showroom was a world apart from some products of that German brand.

I've kept my clothes in one of closed, particle-board armoire things from Index for about ten years. Never had a problem with mildew or musty smells until I left the condo closed up for about nine months. When I returned, everything in the armoire smelled musty. Since I've been back and washed every bit of clothing and bedding in the armoire, no musty smells for five months. My conclusion is that even just a daily routine of opening the doors once or twice daily was enough air circulation.

There is a Haefele showroom in Pattaya, on Sukhumvit across the street from Tesco Lotus near the Thepprasit intersection.  Shares the building with True Value

If the room is air conditioned, then there should be no problem.

Hi everyone,

I am also facing the same problem but going through this discussion seems to be in relief. I'll check them out. Thanks for sharing such ideas.
