Open wardrobe wall 71 × 79 in

An open wardrobe wall of 71 × 79 in with no doors: a hanging bay with a rail, a tower of shelves and a column with a drawer block, for a walk-in feel.

Schematic front view of the open wardrobe wall: hanging space on the left, a shelf tower in the middle, an open bay over a drawer block on the right, 71 × 79 in
Schematic front view of the layout. The sizes in the cut list are what counts.

Three jobs side by side: hanging space on the left with a shelf above, a stack of shelves in the middle, and an open bay over a drawer block on the right. The 24 in depth is just right for clothes hangers.

What makes this design special

A door-free layout with three differently divided columns. Want to close it in? Add doors in front; the widths stay the same.

These are the cut sizes the cabinet designer computes (edge banding and kerf included). For drawers and doors, always check the clearance your own slides and hinges need.

Open this project in the cabinet designer with the button below. You see the cabinet in 2D right away and can change the sizes, material and layout parametrically; the panel sizes and the cutting plan follow along. Rather save it yourself?

Material and sheets needed

Based on the panel sizes above, this project takes about 4 sheets of 3/4 in (18 mm) plywood and 2 sheets of 1/4 in (6 mm) plywood (back panel). Prices vary by country and store, so check your local supplier; the tool works out the exact number of sheets and can show real prices from its material library.
