The Rauch Tara Passepartout Frame is a premium finishing accessory designed to enhance the appearance of your wardrobe while creating a more luxurious fitted-bedroom aesthetic. Surrounding the wardrobe with a stylish frame, it provides a more substantial and architectural presence within the room, transforming the wardrobe into a true focal point.
A passepartout frame is a decorative outer surround that sits around the wardrobe structure, creating visual depth and giving the impression of bespoke fitted furniture. This design feature is particularly popular in contemporary German bedroom furniture, where clean lines and premium detailing play an important role in the overall look and feel of the room.
Available for all Rauch Tara wardrobe sizes, the frame increases the wardrobe's overall dimensions while maintaining the clean, minimalist styling of the collection. The additional framing helps visually soften the wardrobe's edges while creating a more premium and elegant appearance.
For added ambience, the passepartout frame can be selected with integrated LED lighting. Positioned around the frame, the lighting creates a soft glow that highlights the wardrobe's design, enhances bedroom atmosphere and provides subtle illumination during evening hours.
The LED version includes a practical foot-operated switch for convenient on/off control. Please note that a UK plug is required for installation and is not supplied with the lighting kit.

Assembly by Our Couriers
Our professional delivery and assembly teams operate across Mainland England, Wales, and selected areas of Scotland and Northern Ireland. If your product includes or qualifies for assembly service, our team will assemble the item in your chosen room, provided the space is suitable and accessible.
Important Requirements for Successful Assembly:
- Ensure the room is fully prepared with clear floor space for the wardrobe to be assembled lying flat.
- Allow at least 20 cm of clearance around the wardrobe’s footprint, and 15–20 cm of ceiling clearance above its final height.
- Our wardrobes are freestanding and require access from all sides during assembly.
- Obstructions such as radiators, light fixtures, or low ceilings may prevent successful assembly.
- If the courier arrives and the space is not suitable or accessible, we reserve the right to charge the full assembly fee, even if the assembly cannot proceed.
Assembly by the Customer

If your product is marked as Delivery Only, you will receive all components in flat-packed form along with a comprehensive, easy-to-follow instruction manual.
Please Note Before Starting Assembly:
- Check all packs to ensure all components are included and no parts are damaged.
- Assembly requires two people for safety and ease of installation.
- Make sure the room has sufficient floor space to build the item completely before lifting it into its upright position.
- Each wardrobe must be assembled flat on the ground before being lifted into place — for example, a wardrobe measuring 250 cm wide x 215 cm high will require approx. 270–280 cm x 235–245 cm of clear space for assembly.
- Ensure ceiling height allows for at least 15–20 cm of clearance above the final product.
