Wardrobes cost in Kodambakkam
Bedrooms in Kodambakkam's metro-era flats are often compact, and the wardrobe usually ends up being the largest piece of furniture in the room. Its cost depends on how high it goes, whether the shutters slide or swing, and how much of the inside is fitted with drawers, pull-outs and lofts.

Planning interiors in Kodambakkam
A well-connected, mid-density neighbourhood known for its film industry links, mixing older apartments with newer mid-rise projects.
- Many bedrooms here leave little room beside the bed, so a floor-to-ceiling wardrobe with a loft is often more useful than a wider unit that eats into the walking space around the bed.
- Older apartments sometimes have built-in cement shelves or niches. Removing them gives a cleaner wardrobe wall, but the plaster and levelling work should be included in the estimate.
- Creative professionals here often store camera gear, instruments or costumes along with clothes, which calls for adjustable shelves and a few deeper compartments.
- Moderate humidity means a small ventilation gap and sealed plywood edges are worth specifying, especially for wardrobes on an external wall.
Estimates cover design, modular carpentry, installation and a 12-year woodwork warranty. Civil, electrical, painting, appliances and countertops are usually quoted separately. See full inclusions & specifications

Plan smarter
Five ways to keep your budget on track
- 01
Measure the swing space
Hinged shutters need clear space in front. If the bed sits close to the wardrobe wall, sliding shutters may be the better option despite the extra cost.
- 02
Go full height
Taking the wardrobe up to the ceiling with a loft adds a lot of storage for a modest increase in cost. It also avoids a dust shelf on top.
- 03
Plan accessories per person
A trouser pull-out or jewellery tray is useful only if the person using the wardrobe needs it. Choose accessories by user rather than adding a standard set.
- 04
Use a mirror shutter
In a compact bedroom, a mirror on one shutter can replace a separate dressing table and makes the room feel larger.
- 05
Keep inner laminates simple
Off-white inner laminate is standard and easy to keep clean. Coloured interiors are an upgrade that adds cost without adding storage.

FAQ
Common cost questions
Still unsure? Our designers are happy to answer anything on a call.
How many wardrobes are included in the 2BHK range?
The range assumes wardrobes in both bedrooms of a typical 2BHK. If you add a wardrobe in the passage or a utility tall unit, the estimate will increase accordingly.
Are sliding wardrobes more expensive?
Generally, yes. Sliding systems need specific hardware and precise installation. They are worth it mainly in narrow rooms where hinged shutters would hit the bed or a door.
Which material works best for wardrobes here?
BWP or Gurjan plywood with sealed edges is a durable choice for Kodambakkam's moderate humidity. HDHMR is another option for some areas, and your designer will explain the trade-offs.
What is the approximate Premium wardrobe cost?
For a typical 2BHK, Premium wardrobes are approximately ₹1.3L – ₹2.4L before GST. Running length, loft size and accessories decide the final figure.
Can you add a study table to the wardrobe?
Yes. A study or dresser module can be built into the wardrobe run, which works well in compact bedrooms. It needs a nearby socket, so plan it before the electrical work is finished.
