Wardrobes & Dressing Rooms

Bespoke wardrobe and dressing-room joinery, designed around the architecture, storage requirements and way each space is used.

ZAUS Custom Wardrobes & Dressing Rooms provide complete made-to-measure wardrobe and dressing-room packages for custom homes, apartments, residential developments and architect-designed projects.

Each system is developed around the project drawings, room dimensions and individual storage requirements, allowing the cabinetry, wardrobe fronts, hanging zones, shelving, drawers, internal accessories, hardware, mirrors and integrated lighting to be coordinated as one complete joinery solution.

From streamlined built-in wardrobes and full-height bedroom cabinetry through to expansive walk-in robes and dedicated dressing rooms, each package can be configured according to the available space, clothing requirements, architectural intent and project budget.

Made-to-Measure Wardrobe Cabinetry

Unlike predetermined modular wardrobe systems, ZAUS custom wardrobes can be manufactured around the dimensions and architectural conditions of the individual room.

Cabinet widths and heights, door arrangements, internal divisions, hanging zones, drawer positions and shelving can be developed according to the available space and intended use.

Depending on the project, configurations can include:

• Built-in wardrobes

• Floor-to-ceiling wardrobes

• Walk-in robes

• Complete dressing rooms

• Hinged-door wardrobes

• Glass-fronted wardrobes

• Mirrored wardrobe cabinetry

• Open wardrobe configurations

• Integrated drawer units

• Open shelving and display areas

• Shoe and accessory storage

• Integrated dressing areas

This allows the wardrobe to respond directly to the room rather than requiring the available space to conform to predetermined modules.

Cabinetry & Construction

Wardrobe cabinetry can be specified using a range of manufacturer-supported engineered board and timber-based materials, allowing the construction method to be selected according to the intended application and project requirements.

Available construction options include selected:

• Decorative and melamine-faced boards

• Engineered particleboard

• OSB-based board

• Multi-layer and plywood-based board

• Timber-veneer substrates

• Selected natural timber components

ENF-grade board options are available across selected manufacturer specifications.

Final substrate, board thickness, edge treatment and construction specification are determined according to the selected cabinetry system and individual project.

Wardrobe Fronts & Finishes

Wardrobe fronts can be selected independently of the internal cabinetry, allowing the external appearance to coordinate with the broader architectural and interior material palette.

Available manufacturer-supported systems include:

• Decorative cabinet fronts

• PET and UV-finished fronts

• Vacuum-formed and profiled doors

• Painted cabinetry

• Natural timber veneer

• Selected natural timber applications

• Aluminium-framed glass wardrobe doors

• Mirrored cabinet fronts

• Open wardrobe configurations

The available palette extends from architectural whites, warm neutrals and greys through to darker finishes, timber-look surfaces, natural veneer and more detailed profiled designs.

Not every finish or door style is available across every construction system. Final material, colour, profile and surface treatment should therefore be confirmed against the selected wardrobe-front specification.

Wardrobe Planning & Configuration

Internal wardrobe planning can be developed around the items being stored rather than using one repeated arrangement throughout the project.

Depending on the intended use, wardrobes can incorporate combinations of:

• Double-hanging zones

• Full-height hanging

• Long-garment storage

• Adjustable shelving

• Internal drawers

• Shoe storage

• Bag and accessory shelving

• Display areas

• Jewellery and accessory storage

• Open shelving

• Concealed storage

Different zones can be configured for individual users, bedroom types and storage requirements.

A secondary-bedroom wardrobe, for example, may require a relatively straightforward combination of hanging, shelving and drawers, while a master dressing room can incorporate more extensive clothing, footwear, accessory and display storage.

Internal Storage & Organisation

A range of specialised wardrobe accessories can be incorporated where greater internal organisation is required.

Available manufacturer-supported systems can include:

• Internal drawer units

• Jewellery and accessory organisers

• Compartmented storage trays

• Trouser racks

• Clothing baskets

• Pull-out storage baskets

• Pull-down hanging rails

• Double and full-height hanging systems

• Adjustable shelving

• Shoe racks

• Display shelving

• Rotating shoe storage

• Rotating garment storage systems

These systems can be combined with conventional shelving and hanging arrangements rather than requiring every wardrobe to use the same accessory package.

Internal accessories are selected according to cabinet dimensions, available space, intended storage and project specification.

Walk-In Robes & Dressing Rooms

Larger wardrobe spaces can be developed as complete walk-in robes or dedicated dressing rooms rather than simply increasing the amount of conventional wardrobe cabinetry.

Depending on the available room dimensions, these spaces can incorporate:

• Full-height perimeter cabinetry

• Open hanging zones

• Glass-fronted display cabinetry

• Integrated drawer storage

• Dedicated shoe storage

• Accessory and jewellery storage

• Central dressing islands

• Dressing benches

• Mirrors

• Open display shelving

• Integrated lighting

The layout can be coordinated around circulation and daily use, allowing storage to remain organised without overwhelming the room.

Dressing Islands & Feature Storage

Where sufficient space is available, a dressing room can incorporate a central island or feature storage unit.

These elements can provide additional drawers, jewellery and accessory organisation, display surfaces and concealed storage while creating a focal point within the dressing room.

Island dimensions and surrounding circulation should be coordinated against the room layout before manufacture.

Glass & Mirror Cabinetry

Wardrobes and dressing rooms can incorporate aluminium-framed glass cabinetry to create a lighter and more architectural alternative to fully solid cabinet fronts.

Glass-fronted sections can be used selectively for clothing, footwear, accessories or display storage and combined with solid cabinetry where concealed storage is preferred.

Selected configurations can also incorporate mirrored cabinet fronts and integrated mirror elements.

Where illuminated or electrically integrated mirror systems are required, the final configuration and electrical requirements should be confirmed against the selected system before manufacture.

Joinery Hardware

Wardrobe cabinetry can be specified with concealed hinges, drawer runners, soft-close mechanisms and specialised functional hardware according to the required performance and project specification.

Selected systems from Blum, Hettich and DTC are available within supported manufacturing specifications, alongside specialist wardrobe mechanisms and internal storage hardware.

Hardware selection can therefore be coordinated according to cabinet type, loading requirements, opening mechanism, functionality and budget rather than applying one system universally across every wardrobe.

Integrated Joinery Lighting

Lighting can be incorporated directly into wardrobe cabinetry to provide both functional illumination and architectural display lighting.

Depending on the selected design, available systems can include:

• Integrated shelf lighting

• Illuminated glass shelving

• Hanging-area lighting

• Drawer lighting

• Cabinet and display lighting

• Integrated LED profiles

• Touch controls

• Hand-wave sensor controls

• Door-activated switching

• Motion-sensing controls

Integrating lighting during design and manufacture allows channels, profiles, wiring pathways and switching requirements to be considered as part of the joinery rather than added after installation.

Architectural Wardrobe Systems

For projects seeking a more open or furniture-like dressing-room expression, ZAUS also offers dedicated Architectural Post Wardrobe Systems and Wall-Mounted Wardrobe Systems.

These systems use more exposed structural frameworks to support shelving, hanging rails, drawers, glass elements and lighting, creating a distinctly different architectural language from conventional enclosed wardrobe cabinetry.

They are treated as dedicated ZAUS product ranges and can be selected where the design intent calls for a lighter, more open wardrobe structure.

Finishes

Finish selections can be coordinated across wardrobe fronts, internal cabinetry, shelving and feature elements to create either a consistent material palette or a layered architectural composition.

Available manufacturer-supported finish families include:

Decorative Board — architectural solid colours, neutrals and timber-look surfaces.

PET & UV — selected matt, tactile and gloss surface options.

Vacuum-Formed — solid, timber-look and profiled decorative cabinet fronts.

Painted — selected architectural colours across flat and profiled designs.

Timber & Veneer — natural timber veneer and selected timber applications for premium architectural joinery.

Aluminium & Glass — aluminium-framed wardrobe fronts with selected frame finishes and compatible glass options.

Mirror — integrated mirrored cabinetry and selected mirror elements.

Final finish availability is dependent on the selected material, wardrobe-front system and manufacturer specification.

Bedroom & Interior Coordination

Wardrobes can be coordinated with other joinery within the same bedroom or suite to establish a consistent material and detailing language.

Depending on the project, this can include:

• Bedside cabinetry

• Bedheads and feature panels

• Dressing tables

• Study joinery

• Window-seat storage

• Display shelving

• Entertainment cabinetry

• Architectural wall panelling

This allows the wardrobe to become part of the broader interior architecture rather than an isolated storage element.

Whole-of-Project Joinery Coordination

Custom wardrobes and dressing rooms can also be coordinated alongside other ZAUS joinery packages across the project.

Kitchen Joinery • Wardrobes & Dressing Rooms • Bathroom Vanities • Laundry Joinery • Entertainment Units • Study Joinery • Bars • Display Cabinetry • Architectural Wall Panelling • Custom Residential Joinery

Where appropriate, cabinet fronts, finishes, handles, glass systems, hardware and detailing can be coordinated across multiple areas to create a consistent project-wide material language.

Project Development & Coordination

ZAUS develops each custom wardrobe and dressing-room package from the project documentation and selected specification.

The process can incorporate:

Review Project Drawings • Develop Wardrobe Layouts • Define Storage Requirements • Select Materials & Finishes • Configure Internal Storage • Select Hardware • Coordinate Lighting • Finalise Shop Drawings • Manufacture • Deliver • Coordinate Installation

This allows the architectural intent, individual storage requirements and manufacturing details to be resolved before production begins.

Applications

Bedrooms • Master Suites • Walk-In Robes • Dressing Rooms • Custom Homes • Luxury Residences • Apartments • Townhouses • Multi-Residential Developments • Renovations • Architect-Designed Homes

Designed Around the Space. Organised Around the User.

ZAUS coordinates wardrobes and dressing rooms as complete architectural joinery packages rather than collections of individual cabinets.

Define the Space • Plan the Storage • Select the Construction • Select Fronts & Finishes • Configure Internal Accessories • Select Hardware • Integrate Lighting • Manufacture & Deliver

The result is a wardrobe or dressing-room package developed around the architecture, storage requirements, functionality and specification of the individual project.
