Options for wardrobes 4 doors, selection rules

Both fashionistas and mothers with many children like to complain about the lack of space in the closet. Those who are familiar with this problem, a 4-door sliding wardrobe is the most suitable solution. This element of the interior is the best combination of style, convenience, practical benefit.

Advantages and disadvantages

Four-door sliding wardrobes have positive characteristics:

• functionality;
• spaciousness (with comparative external compactness);
• the location of the necessary clothing in the immediate access zone;
• unlimited range of possible design options;
• the presence of special compartments for storing things of different sizes;
• good compatibility with the bedroom, living room, office environment (with the appropriate size of the room);
• the effect of visual expansion of space (provided that the doors of the structure are decorated with mirrors on the outside);
• the ability to store not only outerwear, but also shoes, hats, dresses, ties, trousers, underwear;
• easier maintenance of order and neat appearance of the room;
• maintaining free space around the product (even when the doors are open);
• the ability to independently resolve the issue with the internal and external equipment of the product, as well as choose the most convenient door opening mechanism (4-door sliding wardrobes in the photo have non-standard sizes, so they are often made only on order).

The design can be used to fill niches, hide defects in the design of the wall or zoning the room.

But, no matter how many pluses, there are certainly disadvantages:

• for most apartments and rooms, a 4-door sliding wardrobe is too large a design, taking away a significant part of the room where it is located;
• runners on which the doors move (if they are sliding) can wear out very quickly (especially if the product turned out to be of poor quality);
• you can rearrange the four-wing construction on your own only by completely disassembling, and then reassembling it.

If these moments do not seem to be really problematic for the future owner, then you can safely install such a 4-door wardrobe in your home.

Shape and size

In size, the four-door cabinet is fully consistent with the individual characteristics of the room for which it is created, but the dimensions of the product usually fit into the ranges below:

• length: from 180 to 360 cm;
• height: from 200 to 270 cm;
• depth: from 40 to 60 cm.

Four-door sliding wardrobes are designed in various ways and often have the most incredible shapes. But there are several "standard" options:

• ordinary cabinet - such a 4-door design is a "classic" version of this type of furniture. The decision to use it will never cause complaints, since such an appearance is familiar to many and is even perceived as one of the attributes of comfort;
• built-in - the use of such a form is most relevant in the presence of a free niche in the room, where a structure without an external case will be built. The most obvious advantage of such a product with four doors is its low cost (after all, only doors and internal content are included in the kit);
• angular - can be either built-in or case-mounted. Allows you to fill a usually empty corner space and make it more functional.

If the choice fell on the built-in version of the cabinet, then you should not fasten it to sheets of drywall - they simply can not withstand such a load.

Which option would be better

Before proceeding with the selection of a four-door cabinet, you need to make sure that:

• its dimensions will fit into the room where it will be;
• the internal content of the product meets the requirements for it;
• the product is equipped with reliable sliding mechanisms;
• the design of the product corresponds to the interior with which it will be surrounded.

You should study the photo of 4 door wardrobes and decide for yourself:

• Do you need mirrors on the doors;
• whether the facade decoration is monophonic or is it more appropriate to make it with a picture;
• how many shelves, drawers, compartments should be inside the structure.

At the final stage, it remains to decide which price category the cabinet will belong to. This will also determine what materials it can be made from (it is advisable to select the most environmentally friendly). To design a sliding system, it is better to prefer aluminum.
