Choosing the right wardrobe starts with your own space, not a pre-made piece in a fixed size. The four crucial criteria are: the precise wall dimensions, the door system (hinged or sliding), the quality of the materials and accessories, and the internal layout that best suits your clothing. This guide explains how to balance these factors to create a practical, stylish, and durable wardrobe.
1) Size first: Why is tailoring better than ready-made?
Ready-made wardrobes often don't fill the entire wall, leaving an empty space at the top that collects dust and wastes valuable storage space. A custom-made wardrobe, on the other hand, utilizes the entire wall from floor to ceiling, cleverly managing corners, columns, and openings. That's why we always start with a site visit and taking measurements before construction begins.
2) Door system: hinged or sliding?
The decision depends on the space available in front of the wardrobe:
Both types are suitable: Hinged doors: Spacious rooms, full access to all shelves at once. Sliding doors: Narrow spaces, no front opening required, no doors (open), dressing rooms, modern look and easy access.
Browse through a variety of models within the wardrobes and dressing rooms section, or start with a modern wardrobe made to your size .
3) Materials and accessories: the secret to durability
The difference between a wardrobe that lasts for years and one that falls apart quickly lies in the hidden details:
- The board: 18mm thick MDF wood resists bending better than thin boards.
- Hinges and zippers: Italian-made with a soft-close system that operates quietly and lasts longer.
- Back: It is preferable that it be covered with wood rather than open to the wall, to protect clothes and for a cleaner appearance.
4) Internal division: A wardrobe that serves your day
A good wardrobe is designed around its contents: tall hanging units for dresses and abayas, half-shelf units for shirts, shelves for brochures, drawers for accessories, and a top shelf for seasonal items. LED lighting can be integrated for easy access at night. Thoughtful zoning maximizes storage capacity without increasing overall space.
Common types that can be detailed
- U-shaped wardrobe: utilizes three walls, ideal for separate dressing rooms.
- A wardrobe with a central island: adds storage capacity and a touch of luxury.
- A wardrobe with a built-in vanity or desk: a smart solution for multi-use spaces.
- Entrance cabinet with mirror: to make the most of small spaces in style.
