Your project in the canton of Obwalden
Obwalden is a mountain canton centred on Lake Sarnen and the valley leading up to the Brünig Pass. Sarnen, the main town, has shops, apartment blocks and family homes, while Sachseln and Giswil stretch along the lake with chalets and farmhouses. Higher up, Lungern overlooks its own lake, and Kerns lies on a sunny plateau. Engelberg, separate from the rest of the canton, is a mountain resort consisting mainly of chalets, second homes and hotels, with a long, snowy winter. Although the canton is German-speaking, you can easily write your request in English. For a traditional chalet or an extension, ask the municipality about the applicable rules. Give the village or town and postcode and, for a second home, the periods when a property visit can be arranged.
- In Engelberg, say whether the property is a second home and when tradespeople can access it.
- For a chalet on a slope, say whether a lorry can get close or whether materials must be carried.
- If your house is near Lake Sarnen, mention any damp problems in the basement.
Walk-in wardrobes and storage in the canton of Obwalden
In Obwalden, houses around Lake Sarnen and mountain chalets have very practical storage needs. In the valley-floor villages, new homes often lack a cloakroom, even though families leave jackets, shoes and sports bags there. In Engelberg, second homes and holiday flats need ski lockers, boot-drying cabinets and lockable storage for letting periods. In old timber houses, a local craftsman will know how to adapt the units to walls that have moved over time, and to the low ceilings typical of these buildings. Before converting an old building, contacting the municipality will clarify any formalities.
- For a holiday flat that you let, plan a lockable cupboard for your personal belongings.
- In a timber house, have measurements taken at several points, as old walls are rarely perfectly vertical.

Frequently asked questions
How should awkward spaces be described for fitted storage in Obwalden?
Photograph sloping ceilings, corners, skirting and any doors or windows near the proposed storage. Give approximate dimensions and identify obstructions without removing fittings. Ask the designer to confirm final clearances and access for assembly on site, especially where standard rectangular units would leave unusable gaps.
How do I decide the internal layout of a fitted wardrobe?
List the items to store and the heights or widths they need, including long clothing or bulky equipment. Consider which compartments should be easy to reach. Check door movement and room circulation with the designer before agreeing the internal layout and final measurements.
What should I compare in bespoke wardrobes and storage quotes?
Compare board or timber specification, doors, drawer mechanisms and internal accessories. Check measuring, fitting and the finish against walls or ceilings. Ensure lighting or sockets are listed as separate installation tasks where needed, and confirm which adjustable elements are included.
How should I prepare for the bespoke wardrobes and storage visit or work?
Photograph the available space and mark sockets, radiators or sloping ceilings. Make a storage inventory and keep examples of desired finishes. Clear the measuring area, then approve dimensions and interior fittings before customised components are manufactured.
