5 Drawer Chest of Drawers: More Storage, Same Footprint

A 5 drawer chest of drawers is the go-to choice for anyone who needs more storage capacity than a standard 4 drawer unit provides but does not want the width of a double chest. The extra drawer makes a practical difference, giving you room to separate clothing categories more finely or to dedicate a full drawer to items like accessories, folded bedding or seasonal clothing.

Five drawers work particularly well for a single adult using the chest as their primary clothing storage, or for a couple where one person needs more space than a shared 4 drawer unit allows. The additional height compared to a 4 drawer chest also means the top surface sits at a comfortable standing height, making it easier to use as a dressing surface.

In terms of dimensions, a 5 drawer chest typically stands between 110cm and 130cm tall and 70cm to 90cm wide, though this varies by model. The taller profile means it can feel more imposing in a smaller room, so measure your wall height as well as the floor space before ordering.

For even more capacity, see our 6 drawer chest of drawers or double chest. For a slightly more compact option, browse our 4 drawer chest of drawers. Pair with a matching bedside cabinet to complete the bedroom.

Frequently Asked Questions

A standard 5 drawer chest of drawers is typically between 70cm and 90cm wide, 40cm to 50cm deep and 110cm to 130cm tall. As with all chest of drawers, exact dimensions vary by model so always check the product specification and measure your available wall space before ordering.

A 5 drawer chest at 110cm to 130cm tall works well in most standard bedrooms with ceiling heights of 220cm or above. It can feel more dominant in a smaller room than a 3 or 4 drawer chest, so consider the proportions of the room and measure the intended wall space before buying.

A 6 drawer chest typically offers either an extra drawer in the same column, making it taller, or two columns of three drawers side by side, making it wider. The choice between the two comes down to whether you have more vertical or horizontal wall space available and how much total storage capacity you need.

A practical setup uses the top drawer for small everyday items like socks and underwear, the second for t-shirts and lighter tops, the third for shirts and smarter clothing, the fourth for jumpers and heavier tops, and the bottom drawer for jeans, trousers or spare bedding. The extra drawer compared to a 4 drawer chest gives you room to keep one category per drawer more consistently.

For someone who primarily stores folded clothing rather than hanging garments, a 5 drawer chest can cover most storage needs without a wardrobe. If you also need to hang jackets, shirts or dresses, you will still need some hanging space alongside it, either a wardrobe or a clothes rail.
