Rauch Sliding Wardrobes

Rauch Sliding Wardrobes buying guide

Rauch sliding wardrobes are designed for bedrooms where you want generous storage without needing extra clearance for opening doors. This collection suits modern spaces particularly well, with a focus on clean fronts, large panels and practical internal layouts for hanging clothes alongside folded items.

Most designs in this category are made by Rauch in modern or minimalist styles, so they work neatly in contemporary schemes as well as simpler Scandinavian-inspired rooms. If you are comparing them with other Wardrobes, the key advantage here is how the sliding front can help you use floor space more efficiently around the bed or in tighter walkways.

Rauch Sliding Wardrobes sizes and fit

These wardrobes usually have a broad, full-wall look, with typical widths running from about 137cm up to 361cm and a median around 226cm. That makes them suitable for a compact double bedroom as well as a larger main bedroom, but it is still worth measuring the wall carefully and allowing space at each side for skirting boards, sockets and a comfortable route past the wardrobe.

How much floor space is needed

They generally need around 58cm to 69cm of depth, with a typical depth of about 68cm. That is useful in rooms where you want strong storage capacity without projecting too far into the space, and because the doors slide rather than swing out, you do not need extra clearance directly in front in the same way you would with Hinged Door Wardrobes.

What to check before ordering

Most pieces are around 210cm to 223cm high, so ceiling height and access are important checks. Measure stair turns, hallways and door openings as well as the bedroom itself, especially because these are commonly supplied flat packed and assembled in the room.

Rauch Sliding Wardrobes storage options

Rauch sliding wardrobes often balance hanging space with shelving, so they are a practical choice if you need one piece of furniture to handle several types of clothing. Across the category, two-door and three-door options are most common, with some four-door designs for wider walls and larger storage needs.

Inside storage options

Internal layouts frequently include two, three or four hanging rails and from two shelves up to four shelves and above. That makes it easier to choose between a layout aimed more at long and short hanging garments or one with a stronger mix of folded storage, and if shelving is your priority you can also browse Wardrobes with Shelves.

Finishes and material choices

Most items in this collection are made from MDF, with a small number using MDF and chipboard. Finishes include Alpine White, Artisan Oak, Silk Grey, Metallic Dark Grey, Graphite and Champagne, alongside some glass and gloss-fronted looks such as silk grey glass, basalt glass and high-gloss styles. White and grey finishes keep the room feeling lighter, while oak-effect and darker tones give more contrast and definition. For day-to-day care, a soft cloth and gentle handling around the door tracks are sensible choices.

Rauch Sliding Wardrobes delivery and assembly

These wardrobes are usually supplied flat packed, which can be useful where access upstairs or through narrower hallways is limited. CFS advertises free UK standard delivery, while optional assembly is available on selected products only, so it is worth checking each item page if you would prefer not to build it yourself. Finance options and a 50% deposit option may also be available subject to status, terms and product eligibility; see the individual product page and checkout for the details that apply.
