Double-wing wardrobe, features and characteristics of products

It is hardly possible today to find at least one apartment without a closet - it is not only a spacious storage for clothes, but also a stylish accessory in any interior. The most popular product is a double-wing wardrobe, available in several variations, which has its own configuration characteristics. To choose a model for your home, you should consider in more detail all the nuances of this furniture item.

Design features

Some believe that the modern furniture market is firmly occupied by wardrobes and wardrobe systems. The once popular wardrobe with two doors does not lose its relevance today. The design of this product includes such elements:

the presence of two doors, on one of which additional components can be located;
the presence of horizontal shelves - for storing folded clothes;
a bar for arranging things on hangers - usually takes up most of the space;
mezzanines on which it is convenient to place hats and handbags.

The model itself looks like an ordinary cabinet, it has two sides, a roof and a bottom. The internal content may vary depending on the type of product and the preferences of the user.

The interior of the model is often divided in half: the first half is equipped with shelves, and the second is equipped with a bar for hangers. That is why, the wardrobe is called a wardrobe, since it is convenient to hang dresses and overall clothes in it. The use of such a product in the interior will add to it not only zest, but will also have the following advantages:

rational use of the room - the cabinet is considered mobile, it is easy to disassemble and assemble, therefore, the product can be moved to another place, which you will not do in the situation with the built-in option;
a two-door cabinet allows you to get maximum access to storage. For example, everyone knows the inconvenience of sliding wardrobes when roller doors slide so that the internal area becomes only partially accessible;
the possibility of independent choice of filling. Even if the model is purchased ready-made, there are always options to remove several shelves and leave the necessary components;
products fit into the interior of any style. Optional wardrobe - a relic of the last century. Modern models look like they are used in royal halls.

A large number of advantages makes this model popular among people. Such products are conveniently placed in the bedroom, nursery and living room. A wardrobe is considered to be dimensional, in addition, space is required to open the doors. Keep this in mind when installing furniture.

Materials of manufacture

The production of wardrobes for clothes today affects the use of a large list of materials. The raw materials for the product will depend on the preference and budget of the user. The main materials for the models are as follows:

laminated particleboard is the most commonly used raw material for cabinet and built-in furniture. It is characterized by relative accessibility, so that products from the material are inexpensive. A double-wing cabinet made of laminated particleboard will last a long time. Among the minuses of this type of raw material, it is worth noting the emission of harmful substances into the atmosphere, if the material has a certain labeling. The plate itself for the walls, shelves and other components of the wardrobe, under the press, is treated with a laminate having a peculiar structure;
Fiberboard - hardboard is used in cabinets as a panel for the back wall. It has a small thickness, but is considered durable. Also, fiberboard is used to design the bottom of the boxes;
MDF - material deservedly occupies a leading position among the raw materials for the facades of wardrobes. A variety of colors, textures and surface type, makes MDF popular among users;
solid wood - wardrobe models of cabinets with two doors, made of their natural array will always have a high cost. Such products are distinguished by their luxurious appearance, fragrant smell and elegance. A wardrobe made of solid wood is unlikely to fit in an interior decorated in the latest style;
accessories - fasteners, handles and hinges are usually made of metal - stainless steel, aluminum, chrome parts. These include hangers rods.

Sometimes mirror surfaces are used inside the cabinet - this is convenient for trying on clothes and quick access to your reflection.

Location options

When the hinged wardrobe is not in its place, it immediately attracts attention. Focusing on such dimensional furniture, other products become unnoticed. To avoid imbalance, it is recommended to follow some rules for placing a cabinet with two doors:

placement against a wall or in a corner. This option for the location of the product to store things will be optimal in the presence of an empty corner. In this case, the doors will not interfere with the overall space of the room;
end to the wall - the option is suitable for zoning a bedroom or a nursery;
placing products one after another. If the room has small dimensions, it is more convenient to use several wardrobes, installed one after another. Please note that such products should not have a large depth;
design of the portal cabinet - recently it has become popular to choose a product by the type of portal. This option implies the presence of a large area when the doorway is framed by furniture. Moreover, the mezzanines located on top are convenient for storing seasonal things.

Do not forget that the cabinet is not recommended to be installed near the battery, in addition, it is better to combine it with other furniture products. A lone wardrobe on an entire wall will look strange.

Filling

Wardrobes are designed to store different types of clothes: dresses, shirts, jackets, hats and even shoes. That is why in recent years, the name of clothing cabinets has been assigned to them. Modern content of such products may include:

shelves;
boxes;
hangers rods;
modular designs;
mezzanine.

Several decades ago, such models had a uniform design: a bar for clothes was hidden behind one door, shelves and drawers were hidden behind the other sash. Today, the wardrobe has evolved and is represented by a variety of combinations of these components.

It should be noted that in shallow products, the rods are fixed in the end face. They are perpendicular to the bottom and ceiling, while they can be retractable. In products of a deep type, from 65 cm, hung placed longitudinally. This option is considered the most popular, as it allows you to fit a large number of shoulders.

Shelves are mounted at a distance convenient for storing things folded. Sometimes manufacturers equip products with additional fasteners from the sides. Thus, the user himself can rearrange the shelf to the desired height. In addition to shelves, in wardrobe models there are drawers. Usually they are few - 2 or 3, they have a height of up to 20 cm and allow you to fit underwear and hosiery.Modern models can be equipped with modular systems - components that are easy to interchange and complement. This cabinet is large and fits into the dressing room.

Color and style

A two-door wardrobe is not always retro models. Modern materials and accessories allow you to choose exactly the product that the user will like and will most closely match the interior of the room. Wardrobes are usually installed in bedrooms, children's rooms, hallways, living rooms. Use the suggested tips for choosing a product style:

give preference to the classic version of the model of chipboard, imitating natural wood, if the interior is made in calm, restrained colors;
white models from MDF, decorated with glossy film, are suitable for cozy bedrooms, decorated in the styles of a new direction - hi-tech, minimalism;
love retro and vintage - give preference to an antique wardrobe;
for a children's room, choose a model of bright colors - a child will like it, motivating him to fold things on his own;
if the emphasis is on certain furniture products, choose a cabinet with contrasting doors, for example, black and red.

Focus on your own preferences and taste, but do not forget about the general style and interior design. A harmonious combination can be achieved only with the right combination of color.

Selection rules

In order for the product to have high quality, it is worth paying attention to the following criteria:

size - a parameter that is selected according to the dimensions of the room. For small bedrooms, wardrobes with a depth of 45 cm are suitable. For spacious living rooms, deeper models will become appropriate;
production material - give preference to high-quality chipboard, processed along all visible edges with a plastic edge;
build strength - in the cabin you should pay attention to build quality. Even if the installation will be carried out independently, carefully inspect the used fasteners, hinges;
spaciousness - this criterion depends on the number of people living in the house. A child does not need a lot of internal space, but for a married couple a large number of shelves of different heights are needed;
