I used South London Makers They’ve been pretty quiet on the instagram lately though so don’t know if he’s still out there doing it. They did me some oak/valchromat fitted wardrobes; floor to almost ceiling-ish, one bifold opening, one standard (that I meant to stick a mirror on the back of, but never got around to it). It cost a lot compared to buying something standard, but it was a neat solution to the problem and I was firing the money gun pretty heavily on the house that year.
If you’re just doing doors and frames then you’re saving three (well, five) sides of the faff and materials. A based-on-nothing guess from me would be 1.5k+ depending on hardware and complexity. Multiply that by however many fingers you feel like holding up once you throw wardrobes into the mix. You’ll likely need two hands.

Thanks, not far off what I imagined it would cost.
Would probably stick with the hallway as that’s what you see and use the most and repaint the wardrobes and fit new handles, can always do them later.
Any idea what’s the cheap-expensive order for surfaces?
I’m guessing:
£ painted MDF
££birch ply.
£££ Veneered ply-richlite/valchromat etc
££££ solid hardwood? -
The work that guy did for Morales Finch was some of my favourite. Who did your downstairs cabinets?

Any recommendations for bespoke carpentry in SE London or at least will work SE?
I’m thinking faced ply/valchromat/melamine modern house eye candy.
It will be doors and frames for existing built in storage cupboards and wardrobes in a modernist flat.
would ideally like something veneered with London Plane if it’s not too £££ and there’s enough money left over after the eames bird, Aesop hand wash etc.
Also no idea what this stuff costs?
