When our 56 year old home, was built,
people had fewer clothes than we have
today, so the bedroom closet simply is
not adequate. To create sufficient storage
space we designed and built a wardrobe
wall system that is twice the size of the
existing closet. Additionally, it can be
disassembled and moved to another loca
tion if that ever is necessary.
The three upper cabinets can be sep
arated from each other, and removed
from the base. The free standing base
then also can be transported. Once in a
new location, the upper cabinets are
placed on the base cabinet, then joined
together with the molding strips across
the upper edges.
Start construction by building the base
cabinet which, like almost all cabinets,
basically is a box. In this case the box
consists of three web frames, and two

ends of solid stock joined by a front
framing. The edges of the top and bot
tom frames are profiled, or molding is
attached. No back was used on the orig
inal base cabinet, but a sheet of plywood
could be used, fitted in rabbets cut on the
inner edges of the top frame, bottom and
ends. The center frame would have to be
shortened front to back by the thickness
of the plywood used for the back.
Two vertical supports at the back of the
cabinet fit between the top and bottom
web frames, and in notches in the center
frame. While sheets of 3/4 in. plywood
could be used in place of the web frames,
with molding on the ends and fronts of
the top and bottom pieces, the additional
weight could cause problems if the cab
inet is ever moved to another location.
Drawers are fairly standard construc
tion, as shown in the drawing. The fronts
K
were cut from 5/4 stock (1-1/4 in., usually
netting out at 1-1/8 in. thick). A 1/4 x 3/8
in. rabbet is cut on the back edges of
each front, then the face of each front is
profiled as shown. This creates drawer
fronts with a bold projection of about 7/8
in. Considering the 6 ft. length of the
cabinet, drawers of lighter material sim
ply would not look suitably massive.
Make the slides, as detailed, and mount
one to the bottom of each drawer.
Drawer guides are made for each of
the six openings, and fastened fairly
tightly at the center of the front of each
opening with one countersunk flathead
screw. Each drawer is slipped into its
opening all the way,then carefully pulled
back out a couple of inches. This action
will locate the position of the back end
of the guide. Drive a screw through the
back end of each guide into the frame.
