Today, to organize storage places for clothes and bedding, old bulky wardrobes are increasingly being replaced by sliding wardrobes, which have several indisputable advantages over cabinet furniture:
The modern sliding compartment door design allows economical use of the space near the cabinet. In addition, sliding doors will not interfere with free movement, especially for small sleeping rooms.
Thanks to the maximum spaciousness, they allow you to use every centimeter of the allotted space from wall to wall, from floor to ceiling. It fits perfectly into the interior of spacious and small rooms, allowing you to build a mini-dressing room. Perfectly uses the space of oversized areas with protruding corners and low ceilings, inconvenient narrow niches.
It makes it possible to design the internal filling of various functionality according to the owner’s individual needs, convenient for storing clothes, hosiery, shoes, bed linen, and books and television equipment.
Allows the use of a variety of high-tech materials in the manufacture of cases and doors, contributing to creating an expressive design of the bedroom. For example, mirror cloth often used to decorate sliding doors helps visually expand the room’s space.
Varieties and Finishes
The bedroom, first of all, is a place for relaxation, where a person spends a fairly large part of his free time. Although, therefore, the furnishings in the bedroom should contribute to a pleasant pastime and peaceful sleep, and there is no place for scattered things and chaotically arranged furniture.
To optimize the storage process in a small bedroom, a corner system is the best fit. A wardrobe located in the corner of a room with a non-standard layout allows you to use a niche profitably. Installation in a niche of a built-in wardrobe, made to measure, will save bedroom space and material resources. Since the design of such a model will lack side and rear walls, a system of internal shelves and a facade will remain, the manufacture of which requires fewer materials.
The small size and apparent compactness of the wardrobe with an angular design allow you to place many things for both vertical storage and storage on mezzanine shelves and drawers for shoes.
In rooms of almost any configuration, a corner cabinet made in white or light colors with glossy or mirrored facades can free up and significantly expand the room space. However, experts do not recommend installing cabinets only in corner spaces of disproportionately long and narrow rooms. Instead, a built-in wardrobe room will ideally adjust the geometry of such rooms with sliding doors or a spacious built-in wardrobe that takes up the entire space along the short wall.
A kind of corner is a diagonal-angled wardrobe, which effectively covers the corner of the bedroom. The model, which has a transitional module with a swing door, rationally uses the space at the junction of two walls.
Extremely capacious and practical, radius cabinets are produced with concave and convex, oval, and asymmetric cases. A variety of shapes and models allows you to fit a radius wardrobe into any room.
The design of the decoration of the wardrobe can be thought over independently or in cooperation with specialists. There are a great many options for the exterior of the sidewalls and facades. Facades are made with classic, bronze, and gray mirror panels. Transparent glazing of the doors gives the wardrobe a stylish look, allows you to find the right thing quickly, and teaches the owner to keep it neat.
Today, doors are made from exotic decorative materials such as genuine leather, rattan, or bamboo, suitable for minimalist, oriental styles. It all depends on the style of the room, the preferences, and the material capabilities of the owner of the house.
A double wardrobe with sliding doors decorated with a mirror cloth is one of today’s most popular models. For ease of use, the mirror can be located only on one of the cabinet doors. The entire front of the cabinet can be completely mirrored. To give a simple mirror glass an exquisite look, a special surface treatment technology is used in the furniture industry by applying it to sandblast.
A stencil is applied to the mirror, and then the glass is processed under pressure with a jet of quartz sand. After removing the stencil, a matte pattern remains on the mirror, the areas covered by the stencil remain with a mirror gloss. Sandblasting topics can be varied: floral designs, Japanese hieroglyphs, cityscapes, abstract drawings.
When installing a sliding wardrobe model in a bedroom without a mirror, the appearance must match the texture of the materials as much as possible, the style and color scheme of the room’s interior. This contributes to the complete fusion of the front of the cabinet with the surrounding interior, visual expansion of the bedroom space.
Using design ideas that harmoniously combine the decor of the front of the cabinet and the wall decoration, you can achieve that a spacious wardrobe in the bedroom will become virtually invisible. This is especially true for the style directions that do not accept huge cabinets: minimalism, hi-tech and Scandinavian.
For Children’s Bedroom
Modern wardrobes are convenient to use as spacious storage in the interior of a children’s bedroom. A wardrobe for a nursery is best made according to individual order to maximally consider the child’s changing needs during the growth process. Such a practical wardrobe can serve a child for many years.
Storing things in a child’s bedroom involves placing clothes and toys. In the absence of a special changing table in the apartment, you can provide shelves in the closet for storing diapers, vests, and baby care products. Based on the general stylistic orientation of the children’s bedroom, the cabinet doors can be made entirely of mirrored or stained glass or using colorful photo-printed stickers with characters from your favorite cartoons.
A modern children’s wardrobe should combine an original appearance with increased comfort. The shelves in the children’s closet should be positioned, taking into account the child’s height so as not to cause discomfort. For storing toys, it is best to use the lower shelves and drawers so that the child can always reach them on their own and clean them neatly after the game is over.
When installing a wardrobe in a nursery, one must not forget about safety. The sidewalls and front of the cabinet should be made of environmentally friendly materials that do not emit harmful compounds and are resistant to mechanical stress: MDF, natural wood, glass, and plastic.
Internal Filling
When designing the interior filling of a wardrobe for a bedroom, it is necessary to follow some general recommendations. First, you need to decide what things will be stored in it. Only the most essential things can be stored in a small double wardrobe: home clothes, bedding, and bed linen.
A large built-in wardrobe with several sliding doors will allow you to allocate space on the lower shelves to store things that cannot be found in other rooms of the house, such as a vacuum cleaner, an ironing board, and an iron. In addition, some projects provide for the installation of radio and television equipment and a computer behind sliding doors, which significantly save sleeping space by abandoning a computer desk and a TV stand.
The mezzanine part of the wardrobe is always intended for storing rarely used and seasonal wardrobe items. The lower shelves of the wardrobe are traditionally intended for storing shoes.
In the middle part, you need to provide more space for shelves and mesh baskets for storing bedding and wardrobe items: underwear, sleepwear, home clothes, socks, tights, and other small items.
It is advisable to occupy the central part of the ceiling space under the compartment for hanging clothes on hangers, equipped with a furniture pantograph for greater convenience.
What to look for when Choosing the Wardrobe
Considering the purchase of a certain model, it is necessary to understand that the wardrobe is intended primarily for installation in the comfort and relaxation zone. Nothing should interfere with quiet rest. Therefore, you need to be very careful when choosing the mechanisms that move the doors. The mechanisms that ensure the softness and smoothness of the door movement should be practically silent.
You need to pay attention to the material (aluminum or steel) from which the sliding system and other cabinet components are made. The soft aluminum system ensures an almost silent door movement. However, if aluminum grooves are used carelessly, they can easily fail due to jamming. Jamming occurs, for example, due to small solid objects falling into the grooves, clogging of a large amount of dust, and pet hair. The low-cost steel system allows for a longer but also noisier door operation.
Correct preliminary measurements, high-quality assembly, and installation of the cabinet frame, which completely exclude the violation of geometry and the formation of distortions of the structure, also contribute to the long-term and trouble-free operation of the doors.
When choosing, you should pay attention to the cabinet model to mount external and internal lighting. External lighting with low-power lamps can carry an aesthetic load, creating additional comfort in the bedroom at night. On the other hand, functional interior lighting with powerful lamps is essential to make it easier to find the things you need inside the cabinet.
When installing a wardrobe in a bedroom, you need to listen to experts’ recommendations and choose a color that repeats the colors of other interior items in the bedroom: curtains, carpets, and beds. In addition, all the key items in the bedroom must be in harmony with each other.
A significant role in the choice is played by the color solutions of the case, which are consistent with the size of the room. A beautiful wardrobe made of dark material with glossy black doors will certainly be a great addition to a spacious bedroom. However, it will lose its showiness in a cramped bedroom, and it will visually conceal an already small space.
Bright red furniture can become the centerpiece of the design interior of almost any room in the house. However, experts do not advise choosing such furniture for a bedroom set. A wardrobe in an aggressive red color in the bedroom can be irritating to the nervous system. On the contrary, a wardrobe made of neutral pastel shades will help transform the bedroom into a relaxation zone.
The sliding wardrobe must be selected, taking into account the real needs of family members. If there are few things, then there is no need to spend money and space in a very spacious wardrobe.
