Rules for placing things
Here are some general recommendations for organizing space in a closet:
- Before placing wardrobe items in the bedroom, it is worth conducting an audit and getting rid of unnecessary. It is not necessary to throw away old clothes: they can be handed over to collection points, sold or turned into decoration elements.
- At eye level, there is usually the most sought after casual wear. It’s best to sort it by color so that the search does not take much time.
- Seasonal items are recommended to be placed on the mezzanine: in boxes, baskets and suitcases they take up less space and look neater. Another practical option for saving space is vacuum bags.
- When ordering a new sliding wardrobe or updating its "filling", it is worth considering the inconvenience of the old design and correct these shortcomings. For example, if there was not enough space for dresses - add different rails, or in case of irrational use of space - make additional shelves.
Internal filling options
The modern market offers many solutions for convenient storage inside the cabinet. When choosing filling, one should take into account the quality of the materials from which the body and movable mechanisms are made, as well as the ease of opening and closing of all doors and drawers.
Filling Ideas for the Built-in Cabinet
This is a design with sliding sliding doors, which can be entered anywhere in the bedroom. The advantage of this product is its height - from floor to ceiling.
The standard depth of the built-in wardrobe is 60 cm. The maximum width of the doors is 120 cm, the optimal is 60-80 cm. As a rule, the number of internal sections of the cabinet corresponds to the number of its doors. A structure covering the entire area from wall to wall can have up to 4 sections.
The largest compartments are clothing hanging on rods (crossbars). If the bedroom is supposed to store coats and jackets, it is best to select a separate sector for them. The same goes for shoes; the lower part of the cabinet is allocated for it. Shelves are used for knitwear, bedding, and also boxes or baskets where towels can be stored.
Due to the peculiarities of the doors, “dead zones” appear in the cabinet, which are always closed: if the drawer is located in it, it simply will not extend.
Corner wardrobe
This model for spacious rooms is more capacious than its rectangular "brother", but has one drawback - the corner space, which is difficult to use. This problem is solved by placing a vertical support for the rods.
Most specialists in organizing space advise arranging wardrobe items associatively: the upper part should be given to hats and seasonal items, the middle part should be given to everyday clothes and accessories, and the lower part should be trousers and shoes.
Filling with modern full-drawers is very convenient - they are pushed to the end and simplify the search for what is needed.
Examples for a two-door cabinet
This is a popular design that easily fits into a small bedroom. It is divided into two main niches: the first is reserved for underwear and knitwear, and the second for wardrobe items that are hung on a coat hanger. Such products are distinguished by a variety of design: you can purchase doors with a pattern, a mirror, glass or choose a door to match the color of the walls. The cabinet with translucent facades looks interesting, which makes the construction light and simplifies the search for what is needed.
In addition to the standard set of rails, shelves and drawers, manufacturers offer more ergonomic filling for the wardrobe in the bedroom: sliding plastic containers, carousels, as well as pantographs (lowering rods). In addition, there are special roll-out hangers for trousers, scarves and ties, which allow you to easily separate wardrobe items from each other.
For a wardrobe with three doors
Such large-sized products occupy a significant area, but they have more storage space. The filling of the three-door cabinet is diverse: the rods for the shoulders can occupy all three compartments, interspersed with shelves and drawers, or located in the central module. The remaining departments can be reserved for bulky items (bags, cleaning supplies) and knitwear.
If it is not possible to install a dressing table in the bedroom, it is recommended to equip the wardrobe with a special section for personal items. Playing the role of a pantry, it should also include convenient departments for bags, shoes and other property.
Ideas for a Radius Cabinet
The specificity of this model is its rounded shape. A body with curved sliding doors is mounted in a corner. This unusual product resembles a compact dressing room.
When choosing a wardrobe, you can order any number of drawers and roof rails, calculate the appropriate depth and height. The basis can be shelves of various sizes or support rods.
Main sections
And now we’ll talk about the internal content of sliding wardrobes in the bedroom in more detail and share the advice of specialists.
Shelves and drawers
Often, sliding wardrobes are deep enough, which at first glance seems uncomfortable. In fact, organizing the internal filling is quite simple: in the second row you can store wardrobe items that will come in handy soon, and in the first - only in demand at the moment.
Each type of clothing and accessories should have a separate place. Outfits for the street are stored separately from those that you use at home.
It is very convenient to use inexpensive plastic containers - they are strong, therefore they are stacked on top of each other, and their contents are visible through transparent walls, which simplifies the search. In addition, boxes and drawers with lids help protect contents from dust.
Pay module
The clothes compartment, as a rule, occupies the main area of the wardrobe. Its depth should be at least 60 cm, otherwise the shoulders will have to be hung not on the bar, but one after the other on special metal roof rails, which is not always convenient.
Each wardrobe has its own hanger. Holding clothes on top of each other, it is easy to forget about your favorite blouse or shirt - it simply will not be visible. The exception is sets that are always worn together.
Ordering special roll-out pants for women makes sense if the apartment owners have many trousers: otherwise, it is better to install an additional bar at the bottom, and place the pants on the shoulders.
Shoe compartment
The lower part of the wardrobe is reserved for shoes. For convenience, ordinary shelves up to 30 cm high, grilles or metal / plastic galoshes, on which shoes or shoes are worn, are used. If they are stored in boxes, it makes sense to sign them or stick a photo of each pair: then you don’t have to remove the covers in search of the right shoes.
Oversized storage area
If the house does not have a pantry where the vacuum cleaner, suitcases and bags are cleaned, you can add a special department to the wardrobe for their compact arrangement. It can be a narrow niche or a long horizontal shelf. A practical option for filling the wardrobe will be a compartment for an ironing board or laundry basket, and moving mechanisms will simplify their use.
A place to store small things
In standard cabinets, special sections for jewelry or ties are rarely found, but they can be purchased separately. Drawer drawers with rigid dividers are expensive, but finding a replacement from fabric organizers with cells is very easy. With their help, individual compartments for t-shirts, socks, gloves and other small things are created.
Zoning Examples
If only one person lives in the bedroom, the filling of the wardrobe should correspond to his wishes, the number of items and the budget. It is convenient when each door has its own “thematic” department. A married couple can follow the same principles, but another point is added - zoning. An excellent solution is to allocate modulo to each. In the three-door wardrobe, one of the compartments can be reserved for common bedding, pillows, bags.
The wardrobe module for a woman requires a compartment with a bar for dresses, shelves for knitwear, a compartment for underwear and socks. For a man, in addition to the above, it is possible to provide a scrubs and a hanger to arrange ties.
