What are the sizes of sliding wardrobes

Customized furniture design helps you make the most of your home or office space. This creates a space that meets the needs of all family members or company employees.

For example, some people need more bookshelves, while others need narrow paper trays. All wishes can be taken into account by designing one or more sliding wardrobes.

Wardrobe dimensions (height, width and depth)

After approving the design of the room, you need to decide on the size of the built-in furniture. The height of the model is limited by the ceiling in the apartment, and the width is at your discretion.

Sliding wardrobe dimensions are calculated according to the following scheme:

• determine the overall dimensions of the future wardrobe;
• calculate how much space skirting boards, radiators, window sills, baguettes “take away” at the planned place for built-in furniture;
• having calculated the height and width of the compartment, keep in mind that about 100 mm from the depth will go to the sliding system.

Maximum

Large built-in furniture is ordered for dressing rooms, large offices, bedrooms and living rooms. It is not enough to make a closet according to the maximum indicators of the height and length of the room.

To make the furniture convenient to use without breakage and deformation of parts, the dimensions of the shelves and compartments must be in harmony with the height of the person.

1. To make it convenient to reach deep into the cabinet with your hand, the depth of the shelves varies from 50 to 90 cm.
2. If the cabinet is more than 2.8 m high, add mezzanines.
3. With the maximum dimensions of the furniture, it is more convenient to make the doors double, so as not to overload the rollers of the sliding system.
4. The width of the compartment, if the indicator is higher than 2.8 m, is divided into modular complexes.

Minimum

When you are limited in space, the minimum dimensions of the built-in furniture are the optimal and comfortable solution.

Shelves and drawers are distributed so that the maximum number of items can be placed in the smallest area.

1. The minimum width is 1 m.
2. With such dimensions, the door width corresponds to 45 cm.
3. The optimal total depth of the shelf will be 35 cm. Please note that 10 cm is subtracted from this parameter for the sliding system. That is, the usable area is reduced to 25 cm.
4. The height of the cabinet is determined by the size of the room. If the ceilings are high, mezzanines are added.

Standard

As there are no standard rooms, there are no average wardrobe sizes.But there are recommended ready-made standards that are advised to adhere to to create basic furniture.

1. With a construction height of 2.5 m, a cabinet width of 3 m is considered optimal.
2. The depth of the shelves varies from 45 to 50 cm. This is enough for an adult to take out a thing from any zone of the recess.
3. The width of the shelves should not exceed 1 m so that it does not sag under the weight of things.

What are the non-standard sizes

The rational arrangement of built-in furniture in an apartment with an individual layout requires a combination of creativity and cold calculation.

In order to visually represent the future interior of the room, it is convenient to order a sketch of the model in the room in 3D. This helps to avoid disappointments and late wishes to make adjustments when the built-in furniture is already installed.

When planning and visualizing the future wardrobe, consider the nuances:

1. Avoid making the door more than 1 m. This will put an increased load on the sliding rollers and increase the risk of sudden breakage of the sliding installation.
2. Install an extra pair of door rollers if you are planning a wider door.
3. The walls of the structure are made of chipboard sheets. The higher the model is planned, the more durable and durable the source material should be. Do not skimp on the thickness of the chipboard.

Having calculated the main parameters of the wardrobe, you can order assembly and installation with confidence. Such functional furniture will fully correspond to your lifestyle, hobbies and the amount of technology that can organically fit into the built-in interior space.
