Cupboard compartment interior fillingthere will be an internal filling, the more convenient and rational the cabinet will be. Just imagine the absence of such a familiar and comfortable piece of furniture as a wardrobe! We, ordinary people, would have to store their belongings where necessary. Yes, not very convenient ... However, in even more unenviable position would be writers. Indeed, where would they place the entrance to a magical land and a place to hide family secrets? But this is all fantasy. The realities are such that the absence in the right place of at least one cabinet can disorganize the life of the whole family. Judge for yourself. If the closet is not provided in the hallway, it remains to place coats and jackets on open hangers. Uncomfortable and a little aesthetic. There is no wardrobe in the bedroom - therefore, we are looking for a place for numerous clothes and attributes of a comfortable life in chests and nightstands. Probably, to continue the story about what life would be like in the absence of cabinets, it is not worth it. It is much more interesting to talk about life in their presence.

Procedure
As time and experience show, the closet, or rather,cabinet-compartment - the optimal "administrator" of space. First, such a subject of the situation is designed and manufactured for a specific room and certain needs. Need a wardrobe for outerwear? You are welcome. How do you think, maybe it should provide shelves for shoes too? No problems. Secondly, there is always a choice: you can order a fully built-in wardrobe and save on wall material or give preference to a stand-alone item and when you move, take it with you. Naturally, having preliminary disassembled. Thirdly, the doors in the closet are usually sliding. And they, as you know, "eat" less area than swinging. But it's better about everything in order. After all, no matter how simple the model of the "keeper of things", this simplicity is only apparent. In reality, there are many components: the body (if it is provided), doors, guides, "stuffing". Let's try together to choose the elements of our future closet.
- Photo 1. Due to the fact that the aluminum profile withstands a very heavy load, the decor of the door leaf can be very diverse.
- Photo 2. Simple in design, but extremely functional open box for laundry helps to keep order in the closet, and in addition, quickly find the necessary things.
- Photo 3. Due to the open storage in the honeycomb box in a few minutes, you can find any thing.
In profile and full face
If you use a niche or alcove under a wardrobe,then we will have a full-fledged one. Side panels (walls), roof and floor (or, more simply, the body), fastened with ties or corners, are placed on the wardrobe only if it is a free-standing piece of furniture. The material for their manufacture is usually chipboard (Announce, Europe, Sputnik Mebel, Mr.Doors, Odalia, Russia; Komandor, Canada; Stanley, UK), less often MDF (LUMI, Russia; Estrade, Villa, Finland; Hülsta, Germany) or solid wood (LUMI; Paolo Marchetti, Italy). Melamine or laminate (for chipboard), veneer (for chipboard and MDF) are offered as finishes. The ends of the panels are covered with PVC edging (chipboard, MDF) or natural wood edging (MDF).

- Photo 2. The filling elements allow you to place in the closet not only shoes, but also small items.
- Photo 3. The drawer - cassette - divided into corresponding compartments is a rational element for storing ties, socks and scarves.
The doors of the wardrobe-compartment are also "compound"design. The frame is supported by a frame (profile) made of steel or aluminum. For reference: if the company manufactures sliding-door wardrobes, it is absolutely not necessary that it also produces profiles. The total weight of the structure, as well as the load on individual elements of the sliding-door wardrobe, can be reduced by making the main door leaf thinner than the case. Many quite openly work with products of third-party companies. Among the latter we note Raumplus (Germany) and DSH (Canada), the frames of which are quite well-deserved popularity among the masters of Russian "cupboard-making". Own steel profiles are available from the companies Mr.Doors and Simplex (Russia). At the first it is "Largo" and "Arredo", in the second - "Steel Classic" and "Steel Exclusive". The profile of aluminum is more expensive, but also not uncommon in the range of manufacturers of sliding-door wardrobes. This material is taken as a basis in products under the brand Komandor, Stanley and Neves (France), with him working in the "Studio Furniture Aldo" (Russia), paying tribute to the companies LUMI, Mr.Doors and Simplex. For example, in the Aldo Furniture Studio, Raumplus frames are used for the production of cabinets, in Mr.Doors and Simplex, the own profiles of Noteborn and Simline, respectively. MDF and an array of wood for making frames are used less often. With MDF works factory Estrade, with a tree, or rather, with its own system of wooden profiles called Arborum - LUMI. 
- Photo 1. The total absence of daylight in the dressing room can be compensated for by the rational placement of several special halogen lamps.
- Photo 2. The basis for the filling elements can be not only partitions from chipboard, but also aluminum racks, which, thanks to the fittings, contain boxes, shelves and various hangers.
- Photo 3. If the wardrobe is designed for the living room, it can be supplemented with a corner cabinet and a rack. There is always a place not only for photographs, but also for technology.
Width Will the closet extend from the wall towalls or occupies only a small corner of the hallway, depends on the specific situation: the free space, the number of family members and its financial prosperity. The life of the chosen profile depends on its service life. For a more affordable steel frame, it is approximately seven years, for aluminum it is about 25 years. Time, which will serve the profile of the array of wood, depends on a number of factors. The quality of processing of the starting material (drying, finishing) influences much. Its role is played by the conditions of furniture operation. If the humidity in the room is high, and ventilation leaves much to be desired, the tree, and with it the closet, will be deformed. However, fans of ekostyle can limit themselves to a frame made of aluminum or MDF. Among the coatings offered for these skeletons, there are not only films and paints, but also veneers (Ecalum, Russia, LUMI). Height To fully utilize the volume reserved for storing things, the cabinets are designed to height to the ceiling. But the doors, unfortunately, are limited in height. At different manufacturers, the maximum varies between 2.5-2.7 m. If the ceilings in the room are higher, you can close the "rest" with false panels or make a mezzanine with separate doors. The second component of the doors of the sliding-door wardrobe is the already mentioned panel or facade. An example of an economical variant can be a laminated or veneered particle board of Russian or foreign origin. Import, of course, more expensive. Among other proposals - MDF, plastic, metal, mirror and glass. With the last two, it should be noted, manufacturers of closets experiment literally tirelessly. They are decorated with colored pads, tinted, engraved, decorated with sandblasting. It happens that even famous artists are attracted to such purposes. True, the cost of their services is very high. And this can not be ignored, stopping to look at the author's works. And one more thing: the design of the panels directly depends on the profile material. Aluminum withstands more load, therefore, the decor of the door leaf can be more intricate and combine heterogeneous materials, and in any combination. Price We calculate a two-winged wardrobe for the hallway in a one-room apartment of the P-44T series. Its height is 2.6 m, width - 1.4 m, depth - 0.65 m. The cabinet will be fully built-in with steel frames. One door leaf is supposed to be made of German laminated chipboard, the other - to make a mirror. Shelves and partitions will be made from Russian chipboard. We will take one section of the cabinet under the outer clothing, the other under the textiles. Below we will provide a shelf for shoes. Estimated cost of this model is 32-33 thousand rubles.
Like on rails
The door of the wardrobe is mandatoryis equipped with a sliding or rolling system. For reference: manufacturers have both names in the process. What to prefer is a matter of taste. The system is a carriage with rollers that is built into the frame, and plastic or metal tracks (guides) along which the door leaf moves. In addition, the design of the carriage provides special adjustable mechanisms, allowing the door to be exposed without distortion. And the most "advanced" mechanisms are equipped with shock-absorbing springs. These springs are called anti-jumping and prevent "jumping" of the rollers from the guides. Thus, the doors remain in place even when they strike.
- Photo 1, 2. You can diversify the design of door leaves by combining materials.
- Photo 3. In the luminaires, which are equipped with sliding-door wardrobes, safety halogen bulbs are used.
The buyer is offered a choice of two systemsslip: lower, or the mechanism of a floor rolling, and the top, or roller suspension. More often doors of a case-compartment are equipped by the mechanism of a floor rolling. The principle of its action is that: rollers built into the door frame with a ball bearing mechanism roll on metal guides attached to the base of the cabinet or floor of the room. At the top of the frame there are wheels that together with the upper guide keep the blade from falling.
- Photo 1. Honeycomb shelves for shoes are easy to operate - just wipe them with a cloth.
- Photo 2. Cellular storage systems are assembled on the basis of steel guides and transverse connecting bars, to which special baskets, boxes for linen and shelves are fixed by means of special accessories.
- Photo 3. In expensive models of sliding-door wardrobes, the frame is made not only by a frame, but also by a number of filling elements, and for glass doors, glass is processed in various ways.
An important element of equipping the closet -built-in lamps that can be located both in front of the dressing room and inside it. The upper sliding system is distinguished by the absence of a lower rail - all the load lies on the top, to which the door leaf is suspended using rollers. Roller suspension is considered more perfect, it's not for nothing that they are equipped not only with storage systems, but also with internal partitions, which have solid dimensions and weight. However, there are disadvantages to this option. So, if the cabinet has no housing and the ceiling in the apartment is not properly leveled, there can be quite obvious problems when using a roller suspension.
Expand on shelves
If clothes are planned to be placed in parallelwall, cabinet width will be not less than 60 cm; if the account even millimeters, the bar is fixed perpendicular to the wall. The "filling" of the closet is entirely dependent on our desires. Economical option - stationary shelves from laminated chipboard plus raznovevysokie rods for clothes. If there are no problems with finances, you can pay attention to metal (honeycomb) baskets and sliding shelves. Here, as in the case with frames: most manufacturers of sliding-door wardrobes do not produce cellular storage systems on their own, but use products of specialized factories. Attention deserve the system of companies Vibo (Italy), Elfa (Sweden), Reval and Incomaq (Brazil), Lemax (China). Another option - mobile storage systems ("Antonius" from IKEA, Sweden, Norscan from Mr.Doors). They include various consoles, shelves, guides and sections with wheels and without. This is a kind of constructor, which can be completed and rebuilt as necessary. True, such systems are designed more for wardrobe.
- Photo 1. A frame for a wardrobe or wardrobe may even be partitions made of plasterboard.
- Photo 2. Special retractable hangers are optimal for storing trousers, skirts and ties.
- Photo 3. The more there are partitions and drawers, as well as special elements of filling, the more expensive will be the closet.
But I want to provide in the closet something besidestraditional boxes and shelves, because the range of offers is unusually wide. There are regular, swivel and telescopic shelves for shoes, retractable and rotatable trouser hangers, carousel for the shoulders, a variety of baskets for knitwear, boxes with dividers, carrousel, fan, hanging holders for ties, scarves and belts, mechanical and electrical wardrobe lifts ... In short, everything to ensure that the storage space for things was organized with maximum convenience.
