• Chipboard - This is the most common material for creating furniture. Its main advantage is low cost, ease of manufacture, various textured shades. This material is considered environmentally friendly even though they are based on a small amount of synthetic formaldehyde resins.

• Fiberboard. Its main application is bent structural elements: the back wall, the bottoms of drawers and so on. This material has a significant drawback - low moisture resistance.

• MDF. The production principle is the same as that of chipboard, but MDF is much stronger and is of higher quality.

• Veneer - This is a panel made of chipboard or MDF, the upper layers of which are covered with thin sheets of wood. Such material is used to create luxury furniture, because it has high quality, durability, and, accordingly, price.

Managers, based on the needs of the buyer, will help you choose furniture of the optimal size and shape, taking into account additional elements. Furniture makers in the production take into account the types of apartments. Such furniture has the following standard sizes:

• height: 220-310 cm;

• depth: 45–70 cm;

• the size of the shelves depends on the depth of the cabinet, the difference is 10-15 cm.

It is worthwhile to consider in more detail the forms of cabinets in the bedroom.

• Narrow wardrobe used for small hallways and corridors, where space is extremely limited, and the capacity must be full. For convenience, such furniture uses shelves and niches for storing things, shoes, bags and other trifles. The length of such a sliding wardrobe is unlimited, one difficulty is the doors (the more there are, the higher the price).

• Pencil case - This is a rather unusual piece of furniture that has received special recognition. Its main difference is that the height is more than the width. The modest dimensions make it possible to perfectly fit the closet into the living room, corridor or nursery. It can act as an independent piece of furniture or in combination with others.

• L-shaped cabinet - This is an original find if there is not enough free space. The triangular type of compartment with a mirror makes the most of the space. For better practicality, racks with shelves are placed on the front sides, which can be either open or closed.

Everyone should know that not only the functional purpose of the furniture, but also the dimensions depend on the internal component. The number of shelves and the depth of the cabinet are taken into account. Properly thought out filling allows you to intelligently apply space. It is worth considering what the internal filling of the cabinet should be. The first thing to do is zoning the space.

You should take into account such moments as:

• what are you going to store in the closet;
• the hose can be extendable or transverse if the cabinet is not too deep, compact for shirts, trousers, jackets or with a full-height compartment;
• the presence of a mezzanine and shelves for shoes is an additional place to store different things.

Furniture such as a wardrobe can find its place in any room. A logical question arises, how not to make a mistake with the choice. To make it right, we will reveal some simple secrets of a competent purchase.

• Decide on the shape of the cabinet. The case version is not very suitable for small rooms, occupying a rather solid area. The recessed one requires a separate niche in the room.
• Pay attention to the sliding door opening mechanism. Roller less reliable. Objects fall into the grooves, clogged with dust, which leads to the rollers falling out of the grooves and breaking the door. Monorail more reliable. Such a mechanism is devoid of the disadvantages of the previous one.
• Specify the material from which the wheels are made, the facade of the doors, the profile of the sliding system. Their operation depends on their quality. Give preference to metal rollers or plastic with Teflon coating. The sliding system profile offers two options: steel and aluminum. The first is durable, but because of its large mass creates a decent load on the hardware. Aluminum with intensive use will last no more than 10 years, but it looks more aesthetically pleasing. The material of the facade of the doors is the most diverse. Spectacular of course look mirrored. Choosing a wardrobe with a mirror in the bedroom, you add sophistication, light and space.
• Give preference to trusted manufacturing companies. There are quite a lot of amateurs in the furniture market.Do not buy a cabinet that is too cheap, because you run the risk of spending money and sometimes even buying life-threatening furniture. If you feel a strong, pungent, unpleasant odor, then it is better to refuse to buy.

Any detail of the interior requires thoughtfulness. In different rooms, the furniture looks different. There are no trifles. The main thing is that you have a comfortable environment.

• If the apartment has a niche, stir the built-in compartment, so you save additional space. If the depth of the niche is more than 2 meters, then a full-fledged dressing room will come out.

• The usual location of the compartment along the wall to the corner does not interfere with the passage. But at a right angle along two walls, a corner cabinet will be perfectly installed, not taking up much space, which is considered the best option.

• Install a U-shaped cupboard in a small room around a door, window, or bed. So you use the extra space. For attic rooms, cabinets with bevels are suitable. You want to make the zoning of the room, install a sliding wardrobe with a mirror as an interior partition.

The expressiveness and depth of the bedroom will be given by the built-in compartment of dark shades: traditionally dark brown walnut, blue-black or chocolate wenge, spectacular burgundy or mahogany, as well as a unique ebony.

For small areas it is better to choose white tones with mirror inserts: gentle yellowish tone Karelian birch, cream background with a smooth structure light ash, golden shade of pine and beige color with a pinkish tint light beech.

Extremely interesting and beautiful sliding doors are obtained with various stained glass paintings, illustrations and landscapes.
