Can fitted wardrobes be installed on carpet?

Is there anything more luxurious in the bedroom than fitted wardrobes? Bespoke fitted wardrobes can be a fantastic way to save space in the bedroom.

Fitted wardrobes are also highly practical in terms of how much they can store, according to Ideal Home.

You may be wondering whether fitted wardrobes are an option for your bedroom. Fortunately, they can be fitted in almost any space, even relatively small alcoves.

Does carpet hinder my plans to have a fitted wardrobe?

There’s no need to worry – it’s perfectly fine to install fitted wardrobes on a carpeted floor. In fact, the carpet can give a delightful hint of luxury and be lovely and warm underfoot – reminiscent of a five star hotel!

There are other benefits of fitted wardrobes sitting on carpet, too – the noise of the closing doors should be minimised, and there’s no risk of damage to hard flooring underneath.

If you already own fitted wardrobes which have been around for a while, you may wish to consider replacement wardrobe doors to give them a new lease of life. What’s more, fitting replacement wardrobe doors is a great way to update your fitted wardrobe’s appearance as part of a bedroom makeover.

Is there anything else I need to consider?

It’s worth noting that the weight of the wardrobes will create indentations in the carpet. Exercise caution if you have a carpet with a particularly thick pile, since this could cause the wardrobe to sit unevenly or even cause the wood to warp.
