Below is an example of a reach-in wardrobe that is 1800mm wide. Let’s say you want one tower module, and the rest of the space will be used for hanging clothes. If the tower module is 600mm wide, that leaves you with 1200mm of hanging space.
If your wardrobe has hinged or bi-fold doors, you could place the tower in the centre and have 600mm of hanging space on either side. You might choose to have two hanging rails on one side of the tower (For double hanging) and one rail on the other side (For long hanging).
If you have double sliding doors, the tower module will need to be placed off-centre to allow the drawers to clear the door opening. In this case, you might have 300mm of hanging space on one side of the tower and 900mm on the other.
Make sure to measure the door opening when the sliding doors are stacked open to ensure this layout will work. For smaller wardrobes with double sliding doors, we recommend using a shelf tower without drawers.
