When it comes to home organization and design, a sliding wardrobe can be an incredible investment. Not only do these wardrobes save space, but they also add a sleek, modern touch to any room. Adding value to your home without breaking the bank. Whether you're revamping your bedroom or looking for smart storage solutions, here's everything you need to know about choosing the perfect sliding wardrobe.
Why Choose a Sliding Wardrobe?
Sliding wardrobes offer several benefits over traditional hinged door wardrobes:
Space-Saving: Sliding doors don’t require additional space to open, making them ideal for small rooms or tight spaces.
Modern Aesthetic: Their clean lines and contemporary design can instantly update the look of your room.
Customization: At Hangers@ wardrobes we offer various customizable options, from interior layouts to exterior finishes, allowing you to tailor them to your needs and style.
5 Key Considerations When Choosing a Sliding Wardrobe
- Size and Space: Measure the available space carefully. Consider the height, width, and depth of the area where the wardrobe will be placed. Ensure there’s enough space for the doors to slide open and close smoothly. We recommend that the front edge of the wardrobes start at least 640mm from the rear wall, this allows for clothing to be clear of the doors when they are in their hung location. If 640mm is not achievable due to the constraints of your wall space then the minimum is 600mm but this may cause clothes snagging on the doors. The maximum height we are able to supply doors/wardrobes at is 2500mm.
- Material and Finish: Our Hangers@ Sliding wardrobes come in a variety of materials, including wood, glass, and mirrored finishes, in many different colour options. Choose a material that complements your room's decor. Mirrored doors can make a small room appear larger and brighter, or even go for our Fusion split panel wardrobe doors to give a touch of sophistication. There is something for everyone.
- Interior Layout: Think about what you need to store. We offer a variety of interior layouts to suit your needs. Such as our basic Essential 1- Shelf and Hanging rail, Axis Interior with or without drawers, 'Nero' interiors, or design your own custom compartments. The flexibility ensures dedicated space for all your clothes, shoes, and accessories. Helping you to decide the best interior option for you, whilst achieving an organised haven.
- Design and Style: From our signature collection to our luxurious Stream collection, our sliding wardrobes are available in various styles. Choose a design that matches your bedroom's theme. You can opt for a plain, glossy finish for a modern look or a wooden texture for a more classic appeal.
- Quality and Durability: Invest in a sliding wardrobe made from high-quality materials with sturdy construction. This ensures longevity and durability, providing you with a reliable storage solution for years to come.
