Optimal planning and rational use of space is the key to comfort. The arrangement of furniture in the room is a key factor.

Thanks to the individual design, the wardrobe can be organically “fitted” into places that were previously considered oversized.

But simply buying a wardrobe is not enough. It needs to serve not just as “furniture”, but become a functional item and help organize the necessary things. To do this, you need to know how to plan a sliding wardrobe inside.

It can easily accommodate items of different lengths, and numerous shelves will help you freely place other small items.

How to organize space

First, you need to decide on the location of the cabinet. This fact will determine how it will look in the end: its depth, height, width, filling.

Be careful when choosing a door extension mechanism – it should not be too noisy.

For a more specific idea of ​​the furniture location, you can limit the place intended for installation with improvised items. This way, you can estimate the occupied space in the room and adjust the dimensions of the future furniture.

The sliding wardrobe will fit into most modern styles.

If we review all the components of a sliding wardrobe, we can identify the main components:

  1. Plinth (lower base);
  2. System (base or “support”, which includes sliding devices – wheels, rails);
  3. Furniture panels (walls, ceiling, floor);
  4. Doors (can have different types, operating principle – sliding);
  5. False panel (located in the part where it is better to hide the voids);
  6. Frame or rod (located parallel to the door, or perpendicular, hangers are hung on them).

As for the internal content, the components are well known to everyone - drawers, shelves, compartments. They can be combined to achieve the desired results.

For example, if you are choosing a wardrobe for the bedroom, there are some classic components that are present in almost every option:

– Shelves. Their number can vary depending on needs, they can be located in any part of it;

This also applies to the distance between them.

– Drawers. Usually located at the bottom, depending on the purpose, they have different depths and quantities;

wardrobe drawers
Drawers are typically used as a chest of drawers.

– Rods. For large sizes, one or more rods can be installed, which are used for hanging clothes.

clothes rail
The rod can be for short clothes (blouses, jackets, skirts) and for long clothes (coats, raincoats, dresses).

If the wardrobe is planned to be filled for the hallway and dressing room, the composition will not be radically different. The only thing that may differ is the number of components depending on the purpose of the wardrobe. The absence of rods or drawers is most likely compensated by the presence of many shelves and storage compartments.

wardrobe for clothes
The variety of “fillings” can be chosen based on personal needs.

When choosing the arrangement of elements, it is also worth considering which family members will use them. For example, if a child is given personal space for clothes and things, then it should be located in a place accessible for his growth. The compartment for this can be planned as follows: a pull-out drawer at the bottom, a shelf and a rod for hangers. When planning the space for adults' things, think about whether there will be storage for other items besides clothes (blankets, sheets, pillows, shoe boxes, etc.).

This will make the necessary layout of the wardrobe obvious.

What sizes to choose

To determine the dimensions and choose the optimal contents of the cabinet, it is better to immediately take into account the factors that will become decisive when choosing.

  1. Depth

If we talk about sizes, then everything is strictly individual. But there are also standards that are often used. It concerns depth. As a rule, it is 60 cm.

If you take the door system into account, it increases by another 5 cm.

But what if this option is not suitable? There is custom-made furniture to meet all customer needs in terms of depth, width, height of the product and even in the design on the doors. If desired, you can order a structure with a depth of 40 cm and it will optimally “fit” into the interior.

For example, it is suitable for a hallway where outerwear is hung and shoes are stored.
  1. Height

The layout of the wardrobe inside with dimensions should be maximally adjusted for all household members. It is worth considering, first of all, the height and the ability to use a ladder or chair to reach the highest point.

Rarely used and seasonal items, bags and suitcases, and shoe boxes are stored upstairs.

Usually even hard-to-reach places are occupied by things that are rarely used in everyday life. For practicality, many people buy a cabinet to the ceiling.

In this case, you won’t have to constantly shake off the dust that has settled there.
  1. Width

There can be no rules for this criterion, because the width is chosen strictly based on the characteristics of the room, the number of things it will hold, where it will be located, and the wishes of the homeowners.

wide wardrobe
The wider the furniture, the more sections it can contain.

Putting a wardrobe in a corner, if the room space dictates it, will not be difficult. You only need to know the width of one and the other part. If the shape is similar to the letter "P", then, knowing the width of all the parts, you can create a well-planned structure.

The number and width of sliding doors will depend on this.

Don't overestimate your size capabilities. If you don't need a large wardrobe and don't plan to buy a lot of things, then you should buy a more modest-sized piece of furniture.

small wardrobe
It is advisable to place small wardrobes in small hallways - standard products simply will not fit there, blocking the passage.

And vice versa - for a large volume of things, they initially consider buying a large-sized version so that everything fits and finds its place.

It is quite possible to place a large wardrobe in a spacious living room or bedroom.

Sliding wardrobe: how to plan correctly

  • Hanging clothes for everyday use (a rod with hangers, where it can be located in two levels for clothes of different lengths);
  • Storage of accessories (drawers with divisions or shelves);
  • Household “necessities” (ironing board, iron, steamer, hair clipper and much more will fit in the compartments between the sections or in a special place designated for this purpose).

The number of shelves, sections and dimensions of furniture depend on the volume of the interior space.

Installation

All components are manufactured both according to standard design and by order. The first option may immediately fit into the right place, or may require an individual approach. Then the sliding wardrobe will be manufactured based on the client's wishes.

As a facade decoration, it is better to choose a mirror surface, at least for one of the doors.

After using the sliding wardrobe for some time, the layout inside may not meet the comfort standards of a single family. Then you can modernize the existing contents of the wardrobe by adding or removing some elements. To install it, you only need the necessary fittings and a screwdriver. In extreme cases, you can call a specialist.
