Varieties of wardrobes
According to the execution of furniture of this type are distinguished:
- Sliding wardrobes of cabinet design. Furniture of this type has side and rear walls. If necessary, such a cabinet is easy to move.
- Built-in wardrobes do not have side and rear walls. Such furniture is designed to be installed in niches. Sliding wardrobes 40 cm deep for hallways are made to order. It is convenient to place such cabinets in the recesses vacated after the redevelopment of the pantries.
- Semi-built-in wardrobes. This type of furniture is characterized by the absence of a back wall or one of the side panels. Cabinets of this type are made to order, based on measurements and the shape of the niche where they are planned to be placed.
According to the design, they are distinguished
- Sliding wardrobes of rectangular shape. Furniture of this design is the most common, as standard hallways are rectangular in shape.
- Sliding wardrobes of radius type. The front facade of these cabinets has the shape of a convex semicircle. Sliding wardrobes of this form have an original design and, despite the high cost, are very popular.
- Corner wardrobes. This furniture is made in two versions: in the shape of a triangle or in the shape of the letter G. The latter option consists of two parts that are in contact with side panels. Triangular-shaped furniture is installed in a convex corner.
- Narrow wardrobes with a depth of 40 cm of a trapezoidal design. The base of such cabinets has the shape of a trapezoid. Facade and side panels are not at right angles.
Features of wardrobes 40 cm deep
Cabinets of small depth are somewhat different from their counterparts in standard sizes. The shallow depth does not allow placing elements that are typical for furniture of standard sizes. In particular, longitudinal bars for hangers in narrow wardrobes 40 cm deep have been replaced with transverse ones. Bars for hangers can be stationary and retractable.
If necessary, two or more transverse bars can be placed. They can be placed at the same height or one below the other. A variant with an open section with hooks for clothes inside is possible.
Many sliding elements, typical for wardrobes of standard dimensions, are replaced with shelves. This solution provides a large capacity for furniture of small depth.
Facade panels or sliding doors of wardrobes 40 cm deep in the hallway are often mirrored. This allows you to visually expand the room.
Before buying a cabinet, it is recommended to pay attention to the presence and design of drawers for small everyday items. The sliding mechanism must have stops that prevent them from falling out. Drawer handles must not interfere with the opening or closing of sliding doors.
