Custom Built-In Wardrobes for Blackburn Homes

Blackburn's tree-lined streets and established brick homes call for wardrobes built to fit an existing room, not a generic size — which is exactly how Brodco has worked for over 40 years.

Blackburn is known for its leafy streets, the Blackburn Lake Sanctuary and a strong stock of established 1950s and 60s brick veneer homes on generous blocks. A lot of these houses still have their original bedroom storage, and Brodco is regularly called out to replace a tired single-door robe with something that actually matches how a family lives today.

We work across Blackburn, Blackburn North and Blackburn South, and because every wardrobe is measured and manufactured for the specific room, we can work around period skirting, picture rails and the slightly uneven walls that come with a 60-plus-year-old home.

Getting Around

Blackburn coverage

Local Character

Lake Sanctuary and quiet streets

Blackburn Lake Sanctuary and the surrounding parkland give this suburb a leafier, larger-block feel than many inner suburbs, which usually means more room to consider a walk-in conversion.

It's a short drive from here to Box Hill, Nunawading, Forest Hill, which we also service every week.

What We See On-Site

What we typically find in Blackburn bedrooms

Original 1950s and 60s robes in this pocket were built for a much smaller wardrobe than most households now own, and hanging rails are often set too low or too high for practical use. We also see a lot of double-hung timber windows and low ceiling bulkheads that a standard flat-pack wardrobe simply won't fit around, which is where custom measuring and manufacturing earns its keep.

Design Guidance

Should you go walk-in or built-in?

Many Blackburn homes have a main bedroom large enough to comfortably lose a couple of square metres to a walk-in wardrobe without feeling cramped, and we'll measure this honestly rather than talk you into more than the room can handle. For the smaller second and third bedrooms typical of this era, a well-planned built-in wardrobe with better internal shelving usually delivers more practical storage than trying to squeeze in a walk-in.

Common Questions

Blackburn FAQs

Can you work around the original skirting and cornices in an older Blackburn home?

Yes, that's one of the most common jobs we do in this area. We measure around existing period detailing rather than asking you to strip it back, so the finished wardrobe sits properly against the wall.

Do you service Blackburn North and Blackburn South as well?

Yes, all three Blackburn postcodes are part of our regular run, and we quote them the same way, with a free in-home measure.

My existing robe has a step or bulkhead above it — can you still fit a new one?

In most cases yes. We take that kind of obstruction into account when measuring and design the wardrobe frame to work around it rather than around a standard ceiling height.

How do I know if my bedroom is big enough for a walk-in wardrobe?

Bring us in for a free measure and we'll tell you honestly. As a rough guide, most walk-ins need a bit over a metre of depth beyond the door swing, which not every Blackburn bedroom has.

What's your guarantee on a Blackburn installation?

Every wardrobe we build, wherever it's installed, carries a 10-year guarantee.
