Sliding wardrobe and its features
Modern production technologies make it possible to manufacture a cabinet of almost any desired size, so there are no special restrictions.
There are minimum indicators that provide ease of operation.
- The width of the wardrobe compartment.
The minimum is considered a mark of 1.20 meters. Width is optimal for a sliding door device. If a smaller cabinet size is required, it makes sense to replace the doors with swing doors. The maximum size of cabinet furniture is limited by the size of chipboard (2800 * 2070 mm).
However, a large cabinet can be combined from 2-3 separate sections.
- Height wardrobe compartment.
Furniture can be made both up to the ceiling and somewhat lower. In apartments and houses, the ceiling height varies from 260-310 cm. In either case, the coupe can be ordered to the full height. At the same time, in models with a height of 310 cm, the cabinet frame will be made of parts joined together.
High-quality cutting of plates will provide a perfectly flat and smooth edge, so that the joint will be almost imperceptible.
- Cabinet depth
The optimal depth indicator is considered to be 60-70 cm. It is not worth making the cabinet deeper. But why exactly 70 cm? When ordering a coupe, you should consider: 10 cm depth of the cabinet is “eaten up” by the sliding doors themselves, therefore these 10 cm are not included in the indicator of usable area.
In such a dressing room can easily fit bar for hangers with a width of 40-48 cm.
Most of the accessories for a dressing room are exactly 50 cm in size. If the room is small and you need to maximize space, then you can make the design not so deep. The minimum that should be adhered to is 40 cm. In this case, only 30 cm remains.
Here you can install retractable clothes hangers (their length is just 30 cm).
- Corner built-in wardrobe.
The dimensions of the model of cabinet furniture must meet other requirements. The minimum indicator of each side of the angle is at least 1.2 meters.
A cabinet with smaller sides will be inconvenient to use, and the filling will not be sufficiently capacious.
Sizes of doors of a sliding wardrobe
There are no special recommendations.The only thing that can limit the doors of the coupe - the size of the sheet of material (DSP). However, there may be solutions. For example, the choice of a suitable material or the use of prefabricated structures.
It all depends on your preferences, as well as the location of the closet.
The sliding wardrobe with a mirror is a stylish solution that fits any interior.
Height of doors of the wardrobe
If the wardrobe is planned to be made up to 2.8 meters in height, then there should be no particular problems, the indicator is covered by the sizes of sheets of material.
Cases are made of laminated chipboard, in different colors.
In cases where cabinet furniture is higher, you can go 2 ways: use a false box between the door leaf and the ceiling or connect several sections of the compartment door with horizontal dividers.
The maximum height of the door of the closet compartment is limited only by the height of the ceiling.
Wardrobe doors width
This indicator requires more careful consideration during design. The maximum width of the doors of the closet compartment is limited by the length of the guide system (120 cm). The junction of two systems for one coupe door is undesirable, since the service life of such a device is extremely limited.
Individual layout allows you to harmoniously fit the wardrobe in the interior.
The most important part of the closet are sliding doors, which must be manufactured and installed according to all the rules.
In general, standard sizes do not exist, in the manufacture of doors often are guided by the wishes of the customer. The basis can take the width of the door for the interior doorway (60-90 cm). Consider the number of sections in the cabinet.
Installing one sliding door on several sections of the cabinet can lead to inconvenience in operation.
As for the thickness of the door of the closet compartment, it will vary depending on the thickness of the material used.
On the door leaf can also be installed glass or mirror.
Filling of wardrobe: shelves and rods
Convenience of using sliding doors and the wardrobe itself directly depends on the correct location of the rods and shelves. The recommended distance between the shelves is considered to be a figure of 25-35 cm.
For a large size can be installed from one or more rods, which are used for hanging clothes.
The bar can be for short clothes (blouses, jackets, skirts) and for long ones (coats, raincoats, dresses).
However, it is possible and necessary to retreat from this figure in order to achieve the best result. For example, a deep cabinet requires that the distance between the shelves be somewhat larger. This makes it easy to get to those things that lie further.
Choosing the location of the elements, it is also worth considering which members of the family will use them.
When planning the space for things, consider whether other items except clothes will be stored in the closet.
On the other hand, it is better to have several small shelves than one roomy. In this case, it will be much easier to store and organize things, and it only takes a couple of seconds to find the right clothes.
The number of shelves may vary depending on the needs, they can be located in any part of the cabinet.
As for the clothes bar, its location will depend on several parameters.
- If you plan to make 1 bar, it is recommended to place it in the upper part of the wardrobe.
Possible installation of 2 rods (for shoulder and waist clothing).
- The height of the bar can be set in the following way: measure the longest thing in the wardrobe and add 5-10 cm to this indicator.
The number of shelves, sections and furniture sizes depend on the volume of internal space.
