Price Ranges by Wardrobe Type
• Simple item (e.g. a shoe cabinet): ₪150 – ₪250 • Standard 2–4 door wardrobe: ₪300 – ₪500 • Sliding-door / complex wardrobe: ₪400 – ₪900 • Minimum call-out fee: ₪200 – ₪350 For example, a standard IKEA PAX wardrobe typically falls in the range between the upper end of "standard" and "sliding/complex" (roughly ₪400–₪600); a corner unit costs more.

What Affects the Price
• Number of doors/panels, each additional door adds assembly time. • Sliding vs. hinged doors, sliding-door wardrobes cost more to assemble. • Internal complexity, drawers, compartments and adjustable shelves add time. • Old-furniture disassembly, a ₪200 – ₪500 add-on if an existing wardrobe must be taken apart and removed before assembly.
Bundle Jobs Into One Visit: to Avoid Repeat Minimums
Every visit carries a minimum charge (₪200–₪350), even if the assembly itself is quick. If you have several items to assemble (say, a wardrobe plus a bed, or two wardrobes), schedule them for the same visit: that way you pay one minimum charge instead of several, which meaningfully lowers the total cost.
Wall Anchoring: Not Always Included, Not Always Asked About
Anchoring a wardrobe to the wall (a child-safety measure against tip-over) is an important safety step, but is not always included by default in a quote. If you have young children at home, explicitly ask whether wall-anchoring is included, and if not, request a separate quote for it.
How to Compare Quotes
☐ Request a written quote before work begins, including the number of doors/panels. ☐ Ask whether wall-anchoring is included. ☐ If old furniture needs disassembly and removal, get a separate quote for that in advance. ☐ Bundle several items into the same visit to save on the minimum charge. ☐ Check reviews and recommendations before booking.
FAQ
Why does a sliding-door wardrobe cost more than one with hinged doors?
The sliding mechanism (tracks, rollers, alignment) is more complex to assemble than a standard hinge and requires more precise alignment: so the labor time, and therefore the price, is higher.
Is wall-anchoring included in the price?
Not necessarily, this is worth asking about explicitly, especially if you have young children at home, since anchoring prevents the wardrobe from tipping over.
How can I save money on furniture assembly?
Bundle several items into the same visit (for example, a wardrobe and a bed) so you pay one minimum charge instead of several: this is the most effective way to save.
