What is a wardrobe

What is a wardrobe? It got its name thanks to sliding doors, the doors of which move apart if necessary, without taking up much space. This is a convenient and multifunctional piece of furniture in which you can store absolutely everything you need. Such products can be built-in or free-standing. Each of these types has its own design differences.

Design features of the wardrobe

Such a piece of furniture is noticeably different from classic wardrobes with a number of pronounced features:

• Has sliding doors;
• Built-in models have no sides, floor or lid;
• Often doors are made with a built-in mirror.

Important! When choosing a roomy and convenient product, make sure that the rollers and guides are strong and preferably steel. This way the sliding door opening mechanism will last longer and without problems.

More and more people are choosing built-in models. This is the cheapest option, since instead of a solid frame, when built into a niche, you can use the existing floor, ceiling and side walls. In this case, the shelves are attached directly to the wall; the main thing is to strengthen it in advance and not use this technology for fixing it to plasterboard walls.

What materials can the product be made from?

Modern showrooms offer a wide selection of sliding wardrobes made from a variety of materials. The pricing policy also differs markedly, depending on the cost of materials. Typically coupes are made from:

• Chipboard (this is a reliable and inexpensive material, available in a wide range of colors, and is considered the main material for the manufacture of modern furniture);
• MDF (more expensive option, also has a wide palette of colors, reliable and durable);
• Rattan (exotic material, used for finishing front panels and doors);
• Bamboo (an expensive material used for decorative finishing of facades).

Among other things, façade sliding panels can be made mirrored. To do this, use standard mirrors or dimmable, opaque, patterned or coated models. As a rule, a special film is used along with the mirror, which can protect the inhabitants of the apartment from accidents and ensure the safe operation of the wardrobe.

Important! You need to select the method of decorating the wardrobe in accordance with the stylistic orientation of the interior of the room where the furniture is located.

Internal filling of the cabinet

The convenience and functionality of the cabinet directly depend on its internal content and the proper distribution of drawers and shelves. The following are used as interior decoration:

• Shelves (usually there are quite a lot of them, stationary and retractable, they make the product more comfortable to use and allow you to conveniently store things);
• Drawers (pull-out modules of various shapes and designs allow you to neatly put and remove the necessary things and always see what is inside, equipped with closers for convenient closing of the opening);
• Barbell (any closet is equipped with a barbell on which hangers with wardrobe items can be hung);
• Modules for shoes (most products are equipped with special mesh shelves located at an awkward angle, designed for storing seasonal shoes);
• Baskets (large mesh baskets can be used to place bed linen, pillows, blankets and other things; they are always well ventilated and visible, making them easy to use).

Specialists can offer other additional modules that will ensure comfort and ease of use of the cabinet. The main thing to remember is that any additions will significantly increase the cost of the finished product.
