If you want your home to look less messy, storage is the key.
As more and more things are put into your home, storage cabinets are indispensable for every household.
There are finished cabinets and custom cabinets on the market. The biggest difference between them is that the size of the finished cabinets is fixed. You need to find the corresponding finished cabinets on the market according to the size of your home space. If you buy them home, they will be either too big or too small.
Custom cabinets can be designed according to the changes in the space of the home, which can not only effectively improve the space utilization rate, but also make the wardrobe and the wall fit together without sanitary dead corners.
Customized storage cabinets
So most owners now choose customized storage cabinets, but there are still many owners who fall into this trap.
Today, I will give you a few tricks to ensure that your home wardrobe is both beautiful and easy to use, all of which are decoration tips.
1 Wardrobe color
The color of the wardrobe should be selected according to the overall style, so that the whole space looks coordinated.
For example, for modern cream style and log style, you can choose milky white, warm gray, light brown or light wood grain color. Because the overall style is warm color, you should choose a warm color wardrobe to match.
If you are decorating a retro medieval style, you should choose a material like walnut log to cater to the overall space atmosphere and make it more textured.
If you really don’t know how to choose, you can choose a color similar to the wall or curtains, so that the wardrobe can quickly integrate into the space and be more unified.
Pay attention to the color of the wardrobe. Try to choose a solid color, don’t choose too complicated colors. If you don’t match well, it’s easy to overturn. Just choose a solid color. If you want to make an open grid, you can choose a wood grain color.
2 Wardrobe style
Now wardrobes are popular with a door-to-top design.
But because the wood itself is easy to crack, deform, and warp, wardrobe door panels over 1.8 meters need to add a straightener inside the wardrobe door panel.
When the wardrobe door panel is warped, it can be adjusted through the adjustment port of the straightener to effectively prevent the door panel from deforming.
The price of straighteners on the market ranges from 100 to 200 yuan per piece. If you have many wardrobes at home, you will have to spend 2,000 to 3,000 yuan on straighteners alone.
If you don't want to spend money on straighteners, you can also make this kind of sectional wardrobe, without worrying about the deformation of the wardrobe door panels, and it will not affect the appearance.
3 Wardrobe handles
If your home is a one-door to ceiling wardrobe, it is recommended not to install exposed long handles. Not only is the price expensive, but it is also easy to bump if you are not careful.
You can choose to make a hidden rebounder, but many people are worried that the rebounder will fail after a long time and cannot close the door.
Then you can make this kind of milled groove single handle or embedded handle, which is beautiful and easy to use.
If you are making a sectional wardrobe, don't make handles. Just make a handle-free design. The upper cabinet door panel is suspended 1 cm below, and the lower cabinet door panel or drawer is made of 45-degree angle handles, which is convenient and practical.
4 Wardrobe size
The most important point about whether a wardrobe is easy to use is whether the size design layout inside the wardrobe is reasonable.
First of all, the best size of the wardrobe door panel is 35-45cm. If it is too wide or too narrow, it will be uncoordinated and look bad visually. The depth of the wardrobe is recommended to be 60cm, so that large clothes can be easily hung inside in winter, and the door will not be closed.
The height of the clothes rod in the wardrobe should be designed to be within 1.7 meters as much as possible, so that it is not difficult for people of normal height to take clothes for daily use. It is appropriate to reserve 4 to 6 centimeters between the clothes rod and the top plate. If it is too high, it will waste space, and if it is too low, it will be difficult to take or hang clothes.
Note that the clothes rod should never be installed in the middle of the side panel. The smart way is to move it 1 centimeter inward, so that the door can be closed better after hanging clothes.
Make plans in advance in the wardrobe, and make as many hanging areas as possible and as few folding areas as possible. The clothes that were folded well will become messy once they are taken, making it impossible to fold the clothes, because they are all messy anyway.
If you want to put more clothes and make them easy to take and put, the size of the functional area in the cabinet is critical.
The height of the area for short clothes is reserved at 90-100cm, the height of the area for medium and long clothes is 110-120cm, the height of the area for pants hangers is 80-90cm, and the height of the area for long clothes (long skirts, cotton jackets, coats) is reserved at 140-160cm.
You can reserve 2 drawers with a space of 20-30cm inside the wardrobe to store underwear, panties, and socks.
• It is recommended to install the drawers in the children's room at the bottom of the wardrobe so that children can reach them
• The drawers in the elderly room should not be placed at the bottom. It is very inconvenient to bend or squat to take them. It is more convenient for parents to set the drawers 1 meter above the ground.
The top of the wardrobe generally stores unused quilts and out-of-season clothes. It is recommended to reserve 40-50cm.
5 Other small details
You want the wardrobe to fit the wall tightly.
In the water and electricity stage, you must ask the master to do the rib leveling process on the wall where the wardrobe is installed. After completion, use a ruler to check the error. It should not exceed 1mm.
Because the board of the wardrobe is vertical, the wall must also be vertical, so that the wardrobe can fit tightly with the wall. If the wall is not vertical, a large gap will appear after the wardrobe is installed, and finally it can only be closed with glass glue, which is easy to turn yellow and moldy over time.
In addition to making the sides fit tightly, there is also the top of the wardrobe. Some houses have tilted tops, and a gap will be left after the cabinet is installed, which is very ugly.
There is a way to solve it, that is, to make a small ceiling on the top before installing the wardrobe, make the top flat, and let the top of the wardrobe fit this small ceiling.
According to the above strategy, both the sides and the top can fit tightly, and there is no need to apply glue, which is more environmentally friendly.
In fact, it is not difficult to do well in decoration. The difficulty lies in the carefulness and patience for each link, from basic decoration to material selection to design and installation. Each link is closely connected, and the chain cannot be lost in the middle, otherwise the effect presented later will be greatly reduced.
