Wardrobes cost in Medavakkam
In Medavakkam, wardrobes are usually ordered together with the kitchen as the first piece of interior work, often for a young family whose storage needs are growing fast. School uniforms, baby things and festival clothes all compete for space, so wardrobe budgets here are mostly about fitting more into compact bedrooms at a sensible price.

Planning interiors in Medavakkam
A fast-growing residential junction connecting Velachery, Tambaram and OMR, with plenty of new apartments and independent homes.
- Bedrooms in Medavakkam's compact 2BHKs are often tight, so sliding shutters can be useful where the bed sits close to the wardrobe, though hinged doors remain cheaper where space allows.
- Growing families here commonly ask for adjustable shelves and extra drawers in children's wardrobes so the layout can change as kids get older.
- Ground-floor homes in waterlogging-prone areas should use moisture-resistant carcasses and keep the wardrobe base slightly raised from the floor.
- Older independent houses sometimes have concrete lofts and built-in shelves, and deciding whether to reuse or replace them changes the wardrobe budget considerably.
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

Five ways to keep your budget on track
- 01
Reuse concrete lofts where sensible
If your house already has sturdy concrete lofts, adding shutters to them can be cheaper than building new loft carcasses.
- 02
Plan children's wardrobes for change
Use adjustable shelves and a mix of drawers so the wardrobe works for toys now and school clothes later.
- 03
Pick hinged doors when space allows
Hinged shutters are generally more economical and easier to adjust. Reserve sliding doors for rooms where swing space is limited.
- 04
Keep the base off the floor
In ground-floor homes, a raised plinth or legs helps protect the wardrobe from moisture and makes cleaning underneath easier.
- 05
Order with the kitchen if possible
Since kitchen and wardrobe packages are popular here, ordering them together can simplify production and installation.

FAQ
Common cost questions
Still unsure? Our designers are happy to answer anything on a call.
Can I add shutters to my existing concrete loft?
Often yes, if the loft is sound and level. The designer will check its condition and suggest whether shutters alone or a new carcass makes more sense.
How do I plan a wardrobe for a young child?
Use adjustable shelves, low hanging rails and drawers that are easy to reach. These can be reconfigured as the child grows without replacing the whole unit.
Are sliding wardrobes worth the extra cost?
They are useful in narrow rooms where hinged doors would hit the bed. Where there is enough space, hinged shutters are usually the more economical option.
What makes wardrobes last in a humid area?
Moisture-resistant boards, sealed edges, ventilation and good hardware all help. Keeping wardrobes away from damp external walls is also important.
How much do wardrobes for a 3BHK cost?
Wardrobes for a typical 3BHK are approximately ₹1.7L – ₹3.3L in Basic. The number of wardrobes, lofts and internal fittings affects the final cost.
