Hello!
For our walk-in closet, we need two wardrobes. We took a look at Nolte Attraction at Höffner and liked it quite a bit. However, it only comes in widths of 270 or 300cm (106 or 118 inches), and with our wall measuring 291cm (115 inches), neither option fits at all.
So, we thought it might make more sense to consider custom-made furniture right away. After all, you want to have something for decades, and it should probably fit seamlessly. The room height is also important—who wants a dust trap area above the wardrobe? (On the other hand, especially for sliding door wardrobes, there needs to be some space left at the top for the doors to be installed properly.)
What do you think about a ceiling-high wardrobe solution?
Does anyone know of any providers for custom-made furniture who deliver reliable, high-quality work and stick to delivery schedules? Even with a custom solution, we want to have the same quality as offered by brands like Nolte or Staud.
Here is our walk-in closet.

Room height is 2.565 meters (8 feet 5 inches).

We had the wardrobes in our walk-in closet custom made by a carpenter.
Fully equipped with doors, drawers, shelves, and hanging rods, the price was roughly the same as the PAX frames with the cheapest doors – without any interior fittings. Due to the room size, using the PAX system we could only have installed two opposing wardrobe walls and would have had to leave the end wall free. So significantly less wardrobe space. Why would a carpenter be able to produce so cheaply? That’s the first time I’ve heard that..

The common belief that "carpenters are expensive" is something I absolutely cannot confirm. This applies to the front door, the staircase, and the built-in cabinets alike.
The only downside was the significantly longer waiting time (4 months for the staircase).

Fully equipped with doors, drawers, shelves, and clothes rails, the price was roughly the same as the PAX carcasses with the cheapest doors – without any interior fittings.Let’s assume 6 m (19.7 ft) at a height of 240 cm (94.5 inches):
PAX carcasses: 6 x 80
PAX doors: 12 x 37
Handle pairs: 6 x 10
