Built-in wardrobes dimensions. Optimum depth for a sliding wardrobe. Minimum dimensions of a corner wardrobe

The built-in wardrobe is a functional piece of any interior. Will fill a small apartment, decorate an elite room. Appearance is made in any style. Furniture stores offer a large selection of standard models. Individual models are made by manufacturers at the request of the consumer.

The sliding wardrobe is in great demand due to its practicality, functionality and attractive appearance.

Calculation of the overall dimensions of the wardrobe

How deep should the closet be?

Standard sliding wardrobes for 60 and 45 cm

When modeling a product, do not forget about the observance of standard parameters.

The depth cannot be less than sixty-five centimeters. With less depth, it is difficult to place things. The volume of the shoulders without clothes is fifty-two centimeters. Hangers occupied by clothes occupy sixty-five centimeters. Doors should close freely without force. When calculating the dimensions, consider the thickness of the material used to make the furniture. Thick walls reduce the volume of the device.

What size cabinet can you make?

Approximate standard dimensions for the manufacture of wardrobes

Built-in wardrobes are produced in different sizes. The length of the device varies from 1.2 m. With a shorter length, the installation of sliding doors is not recommended. The creation of a cabinet with a length of less than 1.2 m is accompanied by the arrangement of swing doors.

A compact wardrobe can be placed in a small hallway or on a balcony

The limits of the boundaries of hull systems created from chipboard are limited by the size of the sheets themselves. A standard chipboard sheet has dimensions of 2.8 m by 2.7 m. Some manufacturers offer chipboard sheets with a height of more than 3.0 m.

The standard height is directly related to the height of the ceilings of the apartment

The depth of wardrobes in a narrow hallway

A small wardrobe fits perfectly into the interior of a small hallway

Most apartments have small hallways. A small area cannot be filled with oversized furniture. A small area is filled with devices of minimum depth. The depth of the device for a small hall is at least 0.35 m. Space is saved due to a different arrangement of hangers. The hangers are located along the length of the area to be filled. Such cabinets have a smaller capacity, have several sliding doors. Swing systems in a narrow area are inappropriate. The furniture of small hallways is equipped with a mirror surface. Mirrors allow you to visually increase the volume of the area to be filled.

Sliding wardrobes with variable depth: corner and radius

Cabinet with variable depth is divided into zones

Among the huge selection of systems, corner and radius cabinets deserve special attention. Models significantly save the area of ​​​​the apartments. Corner, radius devices are perfect for the hallway, decorate the bedroom, living room. Due to the wavy shape, they are ideal for children's rooms.

Straight and wavy wardrobes for different interiors and rooms

There are the following types of corner cabinets:


Dimensions of a small radius cabinet

Wardrobe wardrobe width

When modeling a built-in wardrobe, the correct calculation of the dimensions of the door facade is of great importance.

Layout of wardrobe doors

The width of the sliding doors of the structure from two meters must be at least sixty-five centimeters. Violation of the specified ratio will lead to failure of the roller mechanism.

Arrangement of two-, three-, four- and five-door wardrobes

It is difficult to design the width of the doors of narrow devices. You need to remember the main rule, the ratio of the height and width of the sliding mechanism should be 1⁄4.

If the ratio is incorrect, the mechanism will be inconvenient to use, function poorly, and often break.

Maximum wardrobe height

High wardrobe 68 cm deep in a spacious hallway

The maximum height of the system is limited by the height of the room to be furnished. It is undesirable to design a cabinet with a height exceeding the size of chipboard panels. The standard size of a chipboard board is limited to 2.78 m. There are boards up to 3.2 m high. It is not advisable to install an inseparable door facade exceeding three meters. The higher the door leaf, the greater the load on the sliding door mechanism. The device will be difficult to open, the roller mechanism will quickly fail.

Sliding wardrobe from wall to wall 70 cm deep

The height of the main cabinet section cannot exceed 2.2 m. If necessary, the model can be equipped with an additional section with separate sliding doors. In the hard-to-reach upper part, you can place shelves with seasonal items.

When modeling the height, take into account the free space of the furnished area. Furniture that rises to the ceiling looks good in small rooms, with a ceiling height of no more than 2.8 m. In an apartment with ceilings of more than 3.0 m, the top-level cabinet looks unnecessarily cumbersome, visually reduces the occupied area.

The furniture system, built from different materials, looks less cumbersome, has a more stylish look. For decoration, you can combine glass, mirrors, wood, satin glass, bamboo, use photomolecular printing. Satin glass, photomolecular printing can be combined with any material.

When modeling the constituent parts of the model, one should remember whether the house is equipped with a freight elevator, take into account the overall dimensions of the freight elevator and the size of the openings of the entrance doors. Consider the possibility of supplying the component parts of the product.

Minimum corner cabinet dimensions

Corner built-in wardrobe, the best solution for filling the space of small areas. The product will fit well in the narrowed area of ​​​​the apartment and correct the irregular shape of the room.

Furniture of non-standard shape is difficult to purchase in the distribution network in the form of a finished product. A non-standard cabinet is made to order from furniture manufacturers or made by hand.

When modeling, we pay attention to compliance with the standards of depth and width. The desire to save square meters sometimes leads to a closet with limited functionality in the room.

Scheme of a properly equipped storage system in a closet

The depth of the shelf cannot be less than twenty-five centimeters. Such shelves are not very convenient, but quite functional. Smaller shelves are not practical for accommodating standard items.

The depth of the shelf should not exceed one meter; shelves longer than one meter are not always convenient to use. It's hard to get to the right things. The far compartments can be filled with non-daily items.

Internal dimensions of a 2-door wardrobe

The width of the product should not be less than one meter. The retractable facade with such a width should be within forty-five centimeters. Smaller doors will make the design not convenient to use.

The height of the corner model is not strictly limited. It should be noted that the model to the ceiling, more than three meters high, looks too massive. It is difficult, difficult, inconvenient to move the door of a tall cabinet. A bulky design can spoil the interior of the room as a whole.

What you wanted to know...

In this article, we will try to answer the questions that customers often ask us and give you useful tips on choosing wardrobes and dressing room equipment. We hope that with the help of them it will be easier for you to understand how to choose the right wardrobe / dressing room so that they will delight you with convenience and beauty for many years.

Planning a sliding wardrobe / dressing room under repair

If you are a happy owner of an apartment in a new building, we recommend that you plan the location and dimensions of future wardrobes and wardrobes in your home already at the repair stage. This will protect you from the following unpleasant situations upon completion of the repair:
. the place where you want to install the cabinet does not allow you to make a cabinet of the required depth. For example, from the wall to the doorway is only 50 cm, and not 60 cm, which are necessary for storing things in a closet on a bar (read below about);
. the place where you want to place the wardrobe does not allow you to make a wardrobe of such a length that all your things will fit in;
. the place where you want to equip the dressing room does not have sufficient length / width in order to optimally use it for storage. It can be a shame when 20 cm is not enough to make shelves on both sides, and not on one.

Width of wardrobe/cloakroom doors

The width of sliding doors for a closet / dressing room depends on 3 parameters:
. Technological limitations of the door system manufacturer. If the maximum recommended door width is exceeded, the lower rollers are subject to increased wear and may fail after a short time. The door system we use allows us to make doors up to 120 cm wide.
. The number of sections inside the cabinet. If the number of sections in the cabinet is not a multiple of the number of doors, then access to some sections of the cabinet will become difficult. Therefore, the number of sections inside the cabinet affects the number and width of doors.
. Your taste preferences and the interior of the room. Someone will prefer to make a cabinet with 2 wide doors, and someone with 3 narrower ones. The width of the interior doors can also serve as a guideline for the width of the wardrobe doors.
From our point of view, the optimal door width range is from 60cm. up to 90 cm.
If there are hinged doors in the closet, then their width should be no more than 50 cm.

Sliding door systems for wardrobes

There are two main parameters by which systems for sliding wardrobes (sliding door systems) differ.
1. Profile material (door frame).
Aluminum door systems are lighter, stronger, quieter and easier to move. We use .
Steel systems have the only advantage - they are cheaper. Many manufacturers use them in order to save money. We do not recommend buying doors based on such systems.
2. The principle of extension.
Lower support system. Such a mechanism of sliding wardrobe doors involves their movement on the lower wheels along the lower rail. The upper rollers perform only an auxiliary function. Today it is the most widespread type of doors. We use .
Top hung system. In such systems, the sliding doors are hung on the top rail and slide along it with the help of the top wheels. For wardrobes, such a system is practically not used. The main area of ​​its use is sliding interior partitions.

How mirrored wardrobe doors are made

In the manufacture of glass and mirror doors, in order to make / safe, a protective film is glued to its rear side. In the event of a point impact on such glass / mirror, it will be covered with a network of cracks, but will not crumble to the floor and will not injure a person. A transparent silicone seal is put on the glass with a protective film around the entire perimeter. Then an aluminum profile is installed on the glass with a sealant.

Sliding wardrobe / dressing room height

The manufacturing technology of wardrobes allows you to make them of almost any height. Sliding wardrobes can be lower than the ceiling in the room. And they can be made "from floor to ceiling."
The average ceiling height in panel houses is 260-270 cm. For the manufacture of the cabinet frame and doors, materials are used, the length of which is also 270 cm.
The ceiling height in monolithic houses is usually 290-310 cm. If you plan to order high wardrobes (up to the ceiling) for an apartment in such a house, then you need to understand what options for solving the height problem exist.
The problem with the height of the cabinet frame is easily solved - two panels are joined. Thanks to the sawing of the material on high-precision machines, the junction is absolutely invisible.
The problem of non-standard door height is solved in one of 2 ways.
1. The door is made of such a height that the materials used allow it to be made. The gap between the top of the door and the ceiling is closed with a false box in the color of the cabinet.
2. If it is fundamentally important to make the door up to the ceiling, then it is divided vertically into several sections connected by horizontal dividers. These areas can be filled with one type and color of the material, or different (combined door).

Depth of wardrobe

If space permits, then it is better to make the closet as deep as possible. But from a practical point of view, making a cabinet deeper than 70 cm does not make sense. So what is the best cabinet depth? Answer: 60-70 cm. Because:
1. The sliding door mechanism "eats" 10 cm of depth. The usable depth of your cabinet is 10 cm less than its full depth.
2. One or more are usually placed in the closet. The width of the hangers for clothes is usually 40 - 48 cm. In order for the hangers to fit in the closet and not “cling” to the sliding doors, the useful depth of the closet must be at least 50 cm, therefore, the total depth must be at least 60 cm.
3. Most have a length of 50 cm. Therefore, in order to accommodate them, the useful depth of the cabinet must again be at least 50 cm, the total depth - at least 60 cm.
What is the minimum recommended cabinet depth? Answer: 40 cm. Because:
1. If it is already impossible to install a hanger bar in the cabinet, then you can use those that retract towards you. With a total cabinet depth of 40 cm, you can install hangers 30 cm long. This will allow you to place 6-7 jackets on each of them.
2. Shelves with a depth of 30 cm are quite functional and allow you to place on them, in addition to things in "stacks", also boxes of a standard size. it makes sense to make at least 30 cm deep. On the lower shelves with a depth of 30 cm, you can also store shoes. With a depth of less than 30 cm, this will already be problematic.

Sliding wardrobe length

The length of the sliding wardrobe is limited only by the area you have and your desires. But we do not recommend making a cabinet less than 120cm long. In this case, access to the inside of the cabinet through one of the 2 doors will be inconvenient.
If you want to make a closet in a niche with a width of less than 100 cm, then you can equip it not with sliding, but with hinged doors, one or two (they will look exactly the same as sliding doors).

Minimum dimensions of a corner wardrobe

Based on our experience, we recommend making it built-in only when at least 120 cm can be allocated for it in the room on each of the two walls. Otherwise, access to the closet will not be very convenient, and its internal filling will not be very functional.

Height of shelves and rods

Most often, the distance between the shelves in the cabinet is 25-35 cm. We recommend making the distance between the shelves a little larger in deep wardrobes (otherwise it will be difficult to get to things lying in the depths of the cabinet) And in shallow cabinets - a little less (it is more convenient to have many small "piles" of things than one large one - it will be difficult to get things lying below in it).
When planning the height of the upper (mezzanine) shelf, you should consider what things are supposed to be stored there. Most often, large items are stored there. For example, if you store a suitcase for traveling there, then you need to measure its dimensions and decide what height of the mezzanine will be convenient (the thickness of the suitcase plus 5-10 cm, so that it is convenient to pull it out).
The most correct way to choose the height of a clothes hanger bar is to measure the “height” of the longest item you plan to store on it (measure from the top of the hanger to the bottom of the item). Usually, a height of 100 cm is enough to store shirts, 110 cm for short jackets, 130 cm for long things, 150 cm for long fur coats and raincoats ("to the floor") - 150 cm. But everything, of course, depends on the person's height.

chipboard quality

In the production of chipboard, we use the production of EGGER (Germany) and KRONOPOL (Poland) concerns. Both manufacturers are world leaders in the production of chipboard and guarantee high quality and environmental friendliness of products.
Some manufacturers of wardrobes, in order to save money, use domestic-made chipboard. Let's face it - the quality of such chipboard is much lower. It is difficult for a non-specialist to determine the quality of chipboard with the naked eye. The only advice we can give is not to go for too low a price, it is inevitably associated with low quality.

Edge quality

One of the main criteria for the quality of wardrobes to order is the quality of the edge (a plastic strip at the end of shelves and partitions) and the quality of its application to chipboard.
When using special high-precision equipment in a workshop, the edge fits perfectly evenly to the end of the panels, has smoothly rounded corners, and never peels off.
Small private "manufacturers" offering the manufacture of sliding wardrobes do not have such equipment. Therefore, they apply the edge with the help of improvised means. Or use a thin self-adhesive melamine edge. It is glued with an iron. Ease of use is its only merit. The main drawback is the rapid peeling off even without any mechanical action. There can be no talk of any quality and decent appearance.

Accessories from Southeast Asia and Europe

There is an opinion that all European fittings are of good quality, while those produced in Asia are exceptionally low. This hasn't been the case for a long time. And if we also keep in mind that European fittings of similar quality are many times more expensive than Asian ones, then for most people the choice falls on the latter.
The main thing we recommend paying attention to when choosing is the material from which it is made. Accessories that will experience significant stress should be made of metal, not plastic.
Apply to the accessory such an effort with your hand that it will experience in the future during operation. Then you will understand if it is reliable. For example, when choosing a trouser, see if it can withstand the weight of the number of pairs of trousers for which it is intended (and if it is tight jeans?)
Our company offers its customers only high-quality, time-tested fittings (accessories) from the best manufacturers in Southeast Asia.
For those customers who are willing to pay more for an impeccable appearance and European origin of products, we also offer a line of accessories from well-known Italian manufacturers.

Let's calculate the dimensions of the details of the drawers of the built-in wardrobe, which we will make with our own hands. The initial data will be the dimensions of the opening for drawers from the sketch: height 784 mm, width 600 mm, depth 550 mm.

We calculate separately the length and height of the parts. Detailed instructions and drawings below will help you not to get confused and not make mistakes in the calculations.

Calculation of the lengths of the walls and fronts of drawers

First, let's look at the drawer from above. The dark gray color in the figure indicates the side walls of the chipboard frame, the dotted line is the rear main wall.

Despite the abundance of dimensions on the sketch, the "freedom of choice" is small - we can only change the size of the gaps - between the front and side walls, and between the back wall of the box and the back main wall (highlighted in red).

As a result, only the calculated lengths of the facade and side walls will change (highlighted in blue).

This is explained by the fact that when preparing the sketch for filling the built-in wardrobe, the width of the opening was already set, in which the box should fit - 600 mm. The filling depth was also set - 550 mm.

The thickness of the laminated chipboard is known - 16 mm, and the thickness of the ball guide - 13 mm (- slightly lower).

Thus, to determine the lengths of the drawer parts, you only need to decide on the gaps and carefully calculate everything.

Calculation of the height of drawer parts

To calculate the height of the details of the drawers, let's look at them from the side. In the figure, the upper and lower shelves of the frame are painted over in gray, there are boxes between them. The drawer guides are not marked in the figure, since they do not affect the calculation of the height of the parts.

The height of the space for placing four drawers is 784 mm - in accordance with the filling sketch. Let's start by calculating the height of the facades.

The fronts of the drawers in my wardrobe also serve as "handles" so that the drawers can be pulled out. Here we meet the first limitation.

The minimum height gap between the fronts of adjacent drawers should be such that when opening the drawer, fingers do not touch the drawer from above or the shelf above the topmost drawer.

Based on my experience, this distance should be at least 30 mm. I put in 35mm.

There should also be a gap between the bottom edge of the front of the bottom drawer and the shelf underneath. In my example - 3 mm.

Then we get that the height of each facade will be 160 mm. Calculated according to the formula: (784 mm - 4x35 mm - 3 mm) / 4 = 160.25 mm. We round up to 160 mm. I will lay the "extra" 1 mm on the upper gap - all the same, the facades will have to be installed in place. Yes, and the shelves above and below the drawers can stand up with a slight deviation in height from the calculated values.

Note: If relatively heavy things are stored in the lower drawer, it is also necessary to take into account how much the bottom of the HDF box will sag under their weight. You may need to lift the bottom of the bottom drawer above the shelf underneath. This will affect all of the drawer detail height calculations below.

Side and back walls boxes are the same height.

When calculating, I proceeded from the following considerations. From the bottom, 5 mm retreated from the lower edge of the facade of each drawer - this is 3 mm for the thickness of the bottom of the HDF, and 2 mm - for the installation error of the facade (see the sketch of the upper drawer in the figure).

At the top, I lowered the upper edge of the side wall by 10 mm in relation to the upper edge of the facade - this way the box will look prettier, it seems to me.

Thus, the height of the side and rear walls of the box was 145 mm.

Front wall height the drawer is smaller than the side ones.

This is due to the fact that the front of the box is used as a "handle". When opening the drawer, the fingers of the hand should not grab its front wall, on which the facade is attached. Experimentally determined that the upper edge of the front wall of the box should be at least 55 mm below the upper edge of the facade.

Thus, the height of the front wall of the box was 100 mm.

In the figure, on the sketches of the upper and lower boxes, I applied all the restrictions, and on the sketch of the second box from above - the results of calculating the height of the walls.

The height of the front wall turned out to be 100 mm, the height of the side and rear walls - 145 mm each.

I immediately made a summary plate of the details of the boxes - indicating the places for gluing the edges and the thickness of the edge. A part made of 3 mm HDPE appeared on the plate - these are the bottoms of the boxes.


I will add a few more words about the guides for drawers.

Guides for drawers

Guides for drawers are roller and ball.

Roller guides(with wheels) rattle loudly and they have less travel - a significant part of the box in the extreme - "extended" position remains, as it were, "not extended". Therefore, I do not use them, although they are the cheapest, as they say.

Ball (or telescopic) guides I met two types - regular and enhanced. They differ only in height: for ordinary guides, the height is 35 mm, for reinforced ones - 45 mm.

In drawers for storing light things under a space about 20 cm high between adjacent drawers and a drawer width of about 60 cm, as in my case, I used ordinary guides (see photo). If the drawers are taller/wider or designed to store items heavier than linen, reinforced rails are likely to be required.

Thickness of ball guide in the assembly does not depend on whether it is ordinary or reinforced, and is 13 mm. As far as I know, the thickness of almost all "running" ball guides is the same - 13 mm. If you have doubts about this, then before calculating the details of the box, you can go to a furniture fittings store, ask to see the available assortment, and measure the thickness of the guide.

Length of ball guide you need to choose no more than the length of the side wall of the box, a multiple of 50 mm down. In my case, the length of the side wall of the box was 530 mm, so ball guides 500 mm long were used.

The lengths of the ball guides are different, multiples of 50 mm. When looking for runners for my closet, lengths were available from 250mm to 600mm for regular runners, and from 300mm to 550mm for reinforced runners. If you need other lengths, it probably makes sense to look.

Compartment door with dimensions not exceeding 90 cm in width and 275 cm in height. belong to the standard.
Such height and width are considered more convenient:
1. As a rule, a wardrobe section rarely exceeds a width of 90cm.
2. Russian apartments will not soon be able to boast a ceiling height above 275cm. Doors up to 275cm high. fit in 99% of cases.
3. Convenience during installation, transportation and lifting to the floor.
4. Most filling materials fit into these dimensions, which allows us to offer a low cost for facades.

Dimensions exceeding the standard height and width

According to the technology, we can assemble compartment doors of almost any size.
Manufacturers do not recommend exceeding a door width of 130cm.
A large width gives an additional load on the lower rollers, entails an increase in the price of 1000 rubles. for every additional 20 cm.
Before ordering large doors, you should make sure that the facade will pass on the landing and into the room without any problems.

Calculation of the width and height of compartment doors.

To begin with, it is worth deciding on the exact dimensions of the opening (niche).
Next, select an open or closed handle-profile and calculate the dimensions of the doors using the formula.

Calculation for an open profile handle:

Compartment door height = (H-45)
*H is the net height of the opening.

Width of compartment doors = (Lр+(n-1)*26/n)

Calculation for a closed profile handle:

Compartment door height = (H-45)
*H is the net height of the opening.

Width of compartment doors = (Lр+(n-1)*32/n)
*Lp = opening width, n = number of door overlaps.

Closed and open profile handles:

Today, the choice of furniture is not limited to store offers. Any interior item can be made to order according to an individual project. When choosing a sliding wardrobe, the dimensions of the furniture should ideally fit into the parameters of the room. We will tell you more about the sizes of frame furniture in this article.

The choice of new furniture always begins with determining its dimensions. Here it is necessary to take into account not only the width and height of the room where the piece of furniture will be installed, but also the final design of the room. In this matter, every centimeter matters. For example, if a cabinet or any other piece of furniture is installed next to a wide closet, you need to carefully consider their placement. In this case, it will not be superfluous to create a design project for the room and already draw a drawing of future furniture based on it.

Naturally, it is necessary to take into account the parameters of the house. But there are other important points. The maximum height of sliding wardrobes is limited by the ceiling, if you decide to choose a “high” model, keep in mind that doors are not recommended to be made higher than 2.5 m, maximum - 2.65 m. The uncovered part either remains open or is equipped with additional doors. If a stretch ceiling is installed in the room, then there must be a distance of at least 50 centimeters between it and the upper plane.

Standard

As such, there are no standard sizes for sliding wardrobes. But there are recommendations that you should follow when creating a project:

  • plinth height about 10 cm;
  • the maximum height of the sliding wardrobe is 250 cm, which corresponds to the height of the chipboard sheet. In addition, the ceiling height is often 2.2 - 2.5 meters, so it makes no sense to make furniture higher;
  • furniture width - 300 cm;
  • the total depth is 45 cm, if less, then this will no longer be a standard model. In general, the sliding wardrobe with a depth of 50 cm is considered the most convenient to use;
  • shelf width - no more than 100 cm;
  • the distance between the shelves is 30 cm.

The standard height is directly related to the height of the apartment's ceilings. Such furniture will be relevant in the living room or bedroom - it is roomy, functional, does not take up too much usable space.

Please note that these measurements are conditional, the optimal width, height and depth are determined individually. Each manufacturer has its own concept of furniture standards.

Mini

A small cabinet will fit perfectly into the interior of a small hallway, as a standard product is often large for these rooms. The drawing of the future object is made taking into account the size of the room. You should be aware that there are some restrictions for such lockers:

  • the minimum width is 100 cm. The minimum door size for wardrobes is 45 cm (width). If you make them narrower, the design will not be reliable, the doors may simply fall out. If this value is too large, then you will have to stop at a model with swing doors;
  • sliding wardrobes with a depth of 35 cm are the minimum. You need to understand that the size of the shelf itself will be even smaller - about 25 cm, since compartment doors, according to the standard, have a width of 10 cm. If the cabinet is 30 cm deep, 20 cm remains on the shelves - which is inconvenient and impractical.
  • the maximum height of the mini design has no restrictions, it can be both low options and ceiling-mounted products with mezzanines.

The minimum depth of the wardrobe can be less than 35 centimeters. But most often wardrobes with a depth of 35 cm are created for specific needs.

Maxi

Sliding wardrobes of large sizes are usually installed in spacious rooms - bedrooms or living rooms. Also, such designs are great for dressing rooms. As in the issue with mini, maxi sizes also have certain limitations:

  • if the minimum depth is 35 cm, then the maximum is 90 cm. It should be understood that a cabinet with a deeper shelf will be inconvenient to use, because the average arm length of an adult is 60 cm. The most comfortable is a wardrobe with a depth of 50 cm;
  • the height of the structure is limited by the size of a standard chipboard sheet - 278 cm. if it is necessary to increase the height, mezzanines are added to the project. At the same time, it is also desirable to make the doors double, separating the upper shelves from the main department;
  • the width of the closet is also limited by the size of the chipboard sheet. To increase it, partitions are added to the drawing. In this case, the finished structure will consist of two or more modules;
  • door design also has certain limitations - the length of the guides cannot be more than 5 m, taking into account the width of the door itself up to 1 m.

In the manufacture of custom-made furniture, a drawing plays an important role - if mistakes are made during its development, then a wardrobe with a depth of 50 cm or any other will be of poor quality or completely unusable.

Non-standard models

A coupe model with dimensions that differ from the standards is considered non-standard. In order to create a design drawing that will fit perfectly into the room, it is recommended to initially draw up an accurate diagram. Such a tactic will help to avoid mistakes, because the manufacture of cabinet furniture to order is associated with tangible financial costs. Thanks to the use of modern technologies, specialists can realize sketches in 3D format. This allows the customer to see the final result in the photo in order to make changes if necessary.

Sliding wardrobe up to 45 cm deep also belongs to the category of non-standard. This category also includes cabinet or built-in furniture of large sizes - a sliding wardrobe with a depth of 50 cm or more. For the manufacture of non-standard models, the use of special materials is not required. But, if the depth of the closet is 40 cm or more, and the height is more than 150 centimeters or more, it must necessarily have additional supports.

What you should pay attention to when choosing a model of future furniture of a non-standard size:

  • doors from 1 m and more carry an increased load on the roller system, which can cause its rapid breakdown. The maximum allowable width is 1.3 m;
  • a sliding wardrobe with a depth of 40 cm or more, with doors with a width of 100 cm or more, must be equipped with additional pairs of rollers;
  • the higher the product, the greater the thickness of the chipboard sheet should be.

Door dimensions, taking into account their number

The name of the furniture itself provides for the use of sliding doors, consisting of at least two leaves. The sashes are fixed and set in motion thanks to the installation of a special mechanism. At the design stage, it is important to correctly calculate how much space in the closet doors will take up. Contact of shelves and doors is not allowed.

According to the standard, 10 cm are left for installing compartment doors. Based on this, the width of shelves, baskets and other things should be 10 cm less than the total width.

The width of the wings ranges from 45 to 100 centimeters. The number of sashes depends on the total width and internal content. For example, drawers and baskets for cabinets are small in size, so a standard door of 50-60 cm will be enough for such a department. But in the department with clothes rails, you can increase the width of the sash.

Filling elements

The comfort of using cabinet or built-in furniture directly depends on how well the interior space is planned. It is especially important to think over everything in advance if it is planned to store not only clothes, but also shoes, books, bedding, and small household appliances in a new interior object. Let's pay attention to the most important points of planning:

  • mezzanines - ceiling shelves are suitable for storing things that are rarely used. For example, tents, roller skates, skates, out-of-season clothes and shoes;
  • wide shelves - it is convenient to place on them overall items that are often needed - pillows, blankets, appliances. But for clothes it is better to make low and narrow cells - this will make it easier to find the right thing, and it will be more convenient to fold things;
  • open side shelves - this element fits perfectly into the concept of corner structures. On such surfaces, you can store photos, albums, various trifles, which should always be at hand. When ordering furniture for a children's room, you should leave several shelves open - there the child can store books and toys;
  • drawers - their size and number depends on the needs of the customer. Pay attention to the height of the location - do not place them too high or low. The optimal height for placing drawers is 1.2 m from the floor level;
  • rods for clothes - for outerwear and trousers, it is recommended to install a rack at a height of 150 cm, for shirts and blouses, a distance of 110 cm is sufficient;
  • trousers - people who prefer a classic style of clothing will appreciate the advantages of this compartment. Installing a trouser rack will allow you to store your trousers in perfect condition;
  • compartment for shoes - represents the lower open shelves. Mesh baskets make storing shoes more convenient. Mesh baskets can be used to store not only shoes, but also various little things.

Interior renovation is always a pleasant event. Especially if you think over the project in advance and approach the process responsibly. Evaluate photos, consult with experts, compare opinions and boldly implement your design ideas!
