How to choose the right sliding door for your wardrobe

When it comes to designing a functional and stylish wardrobe, one of the most important decisions is choosing the right sliding doors. The style, frame, material, and size can all dramatically affect the look and feel of your space—not to mention how smoothly your doors operate on a day-to-day basis.

At Wardrobes Online, we manufacture two exceptional sliding door styles to suit different preferences and needs: the Metro Series and the Ultra Series. Here’s everything you need to know to choose the right option for your wardrobe.

Metro Series – Sleek and Functional

If you love clean lines and a minimalist aesthetic, the Metro Series might be exactly what you’re after. These doors feature a slim frame and are designed for practical, everyday use with our classic easy-glide wheel system that ensures smooth operation every time.

Each Metro door can be made up to 2.1m high x 0.9m wide, making it an ideal choice for standard-sized wardrobes. Despite their slim design, these doors are built to last with aluminium frames and tracks—available in either white or silver—giving you a durable, modern finish.

Choose from mirror panels, perfect for adding light and depth to a room, or white melamine panels for a clean and contemporary look. The Metro Series is a great all-rounder that offers style and functionality without compromise.


Ultra Series – Premium Design and Performance

For those looking for something a bit more luxurious, the Ultra Series delivers premium features in both form and function. These sliding doors boast a thicker frame and a super-smooth internal wheel system that elevates the gliding experience to a new level of quietness and ease.

With the ability to build each door up to 2.4m high x 1.2m wide, the Ultra Series is perfect for larger wardrobes or when you want to make a bold visual statement. Like the Metro, the Ultra Series also uses high-quality aluminium frames and tracks, available in classic white or silver, and is offered in the same stylish mirror and white melamine panel combinations.

These doors are not just functional—they’re a design feature in their own right.
