Make your own custom built-in wardrobe from MDF, by Martin

DIY built-in wardrobe project

Want to give your interior a personal touch with a smart storage solution? Discover how Martin created a custom built-in wardrobe. In this inspiration guide I take you through the process from sketch to realization with MDF as a starting point.

Preparation and materials

With a DIY project like this built-in cupboard, good preparation is crucial. For example, the panels of MDF Blank 18 mm and MDF Blank 25 mm were precisely cut to size by TOSIZE.at , allowing Martin to get started on building this cupboard himself. This service saves a lot of time and ensures a professional result.

Construction of the built-in cupboard

With a generous dash of creativity and dexterity, this built-in wardrobe was built to fit seamlessly under the sloping wall of an attic room. The wardrobe has a unique, playful structure with different levels of shelves, which create a dynamic whole. The subtle colour scheme in neutral tones fits perfectly with the modern look of the room.

The right room for the closet

In an elegant attic bedroom, this self-built built-in wardrobe comes into its own. The wardrobe not only offers plenty of storage space, but also adds a stylish touch to the space without being overpowering. By making clever use of the available space, you create a custom-made, functional addition to your room.

The benefits of self-build

By working on this project himself, Martin was able to perfectly match the dimensions to the available space. This has led to efficient use of every centimetre. There was also a free choice in the finishing of the materials, which is budget-friendly and offers room for personal taste. Self-build gives you the freedom to keep complete control over your project, not only in terms of design but also in terms of budget.

The cupboard in style

The finished project shows a timeless style with a sleek and calm look. The choice of MDF material ensures a smooth surface that is easy to work with, for example, paint or wallpaper. This versatility makes it possible to change the appearance of the cabinet in the future with a few small adjustments.

MDF Blank 18 mm

One of the materials used is MDF Blank 18 mm. This type of wood is known for its sleek finish, which makes the painting process easier and results in a professional look. In addition, it is a sturdy material that lends itself to the construction of robust furniture, such as this built-in wardrobe.

MDF Blank 25 mm

The thicker panels of MDF Blank 25 mm provide extra stability and strength, which is essential for the construction of the cabinet base. The slightly thicker material ensures that the whole thing stands solidly and contributes to the durability of the self-made built-in cabinet.
