Overview
Booked mostly by owner-occupier-led households around Rayners Lane, wardrobe assembly here covers supply-free fitting from £70. With 17% of North Harrow and Rayners Lane's 2,329 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in HA2 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
Step 1
Wall checked for level and plumb — a Victorian bedroom wall is rarely square top to bottom, and that decides how much scribing the fit will need.
Step 2
Panels assembled and squared with a diagonal check before the back goes on, since a carcass built out of square is what makes doors bind later.
Step 3
The unit offered up to the wall, gaps marked and fillers cut so the front face sits flush rather than following the wall's own lean.
Step 4
Anti-tip fixings into a stud or masonry point on every tall unit, standard on every build regardless of whether the kit's instructions make it optional.
Step 5
Rails, drawers and shelving fitted, doors and runners adjusted to close flush and quiet, packaging taken away.
Why choose us
One fitter for a single wardrobe; two for fitted bay systems, sliding-door units and anything carried up a shared stairwell. Driveways nearly everywhere; only the parades have restricted bays.
Most bookings are within 48 hours, and we hold slots to match delivery days so a kit doesn't sit boxed in the hallway. Rayners Lane (Metropolitan, Piccadilly) is the nearest station, so a HA2 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect timber stud partitions inside; locally that also means cavity brickwork outside — which is what a 17% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering North Harrow and Rayners Lane actually produces in HA2, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in HA2, a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air — and with 20% one-person households in North Harrow and Rayners Lane, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover, and every tall or multi-door wardrobe is anchored to the wall as standard — the fixing furniture safety guidance and most manufacturer manuals call for and that free-standing self-assembly often skips.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single flat-pack wardrobe, up to 2 doors | £70 | 1–1.5 hrs | Carcass squared and anchored before the doors go on, so they don't drop out of alignment within weeks. |
| Double or triple flat-pack wardrobe | £110 | 1.5–2.5 hrs | More panels to square and a wider carcass that needs bracing across the back before it's rigid. |
| Fitted wardrobe system (PAX-style), per bay | £150 | 2–3 hrs | Each bay is scribed individually to the wall — almost no London bedroom wall is square top to bottom. |
| Sliding-door wardrobe, per door | £65 | 45–70 min | Tracks have to be dead level or the door binds or drifts open on its own, which takes more adjustment than a hinged door. |
| Interior fit-out (drawers, rails, shelving), per unit | £45 | 30–50 min | Internal dividers and soft-close runners are fitted after the carcass is anchored, not before. |
| Wall anchoring for an existing free-standing wardrobe | £35 | 20–30 min | A retrofit anti-tip strap into a stud or masonry fixing, which most self-assembled wardrobes are never fitted with. |

Scope
Sulltan is the best handyman in London. He is very reliable and professional. I highly recommend.
Really pleased with our house move. The guys came on time, loaded everything carefully like a huge jigsaw! Nothing got broken and even though they were working on an hourly rate they were really efficient, not to waste any time. Our only criticism is that we needed a few items disassembled to get on the… Read in full →
