Should your showroom put a closet planner on its website?
A website closet planner is useful when a visitor can make a plausible first design and your team receives that design with the enquiry. Test the phone experience, your product range, price visibility and the handoff into your showroom workflow. Treat dimensions entered at home as a brief. Confirm the opening on site before approving a quote or workshop files.
Can a visitor finish a first design on a phone?
Start with a real opening. Our example is 2400 mm wide and 2286 mm high; the planner makes 2 cabinets and 4 doors. A visitor should be able to change the width, door style and inside arrangement without knowing cabinet terminology. Try it on a small screen with your own product choices, not a generic demo product range.
In English-speaking markets, people may search for a closet, fitted wardrobe or built-in wardrobe. Name the product the way your customers do, but keep measurements and units explicit in the form and in the lead your team receives.
Read the enquiry as a design brief
Ask for the saved design, chosen options and contact details together. A screenshot alone can hide the dimensions or a changed interior. Let the visitor know whether an on-screen amount is an estimate or whether pricing comes after review; either approach can work if the handoff is clear.
For this example, 52 boards and 11 estimated sheets are workshop outputs, not fields to make a visitor fill in. The value of the enquiry is that your team can reopen the design, verify it on site and work from the approved version. These counts use our reference construction and stock rules, not your local stock.
What to ask in a vendor demo
Submit an enquiry from a phone, open that exact design in the dealer view, change a door and show where the new version appears. Check which website domains may host the planner, how your logo and product range appear, and who can see each lead. Ask whether price display can be turned off if your sales process needs a site visit first.
Wardrobe3D offers a website planner linked to its studio and leads. A standalone visualiser may suit a business that only needs inspiration. A showroom that also manufactures should test the path from the approved design to parts and fitting information.
