Features, advantages and disadvantages

The Ikea company, founded in 1943, has been directly involved in the sale of interior items since 1948, and since 1955 it has begun its own furniture production. Today, the widest range of Ikea makes it possible for each buyer not only to choose the piece of furniture they like, but also to compose a whole complex of them by arranging a home.

Sliding wardrobes manufactured by the company have many features and advantages over similar interior items manufactured by other companies. Various types of this piece of furniture are produced by the company not only for the bedroom, but also for the living room, hallway and nursery.

Price and quality are two more criteria that every person pays attention to. By purchasing a wardrobe from the Ikea company, you can be sure that it will last more than one year, especially since the company gives a long-term guarantee on them. A competent pricing policy of the company makes it affordable for most buyers.

Despite the huge number of advantages of Ikea furniture, there are also disadvantages. When purchasing a wardrobe, do not forget that the frames are available in ready-made versions, and this somewhat limits the choice of location. Also, in order to securely install it, you need to attach it to the wall, and such elements are not included in the accessories, you will have to buy them separately.

Not everyone will like the strict and laconic style in which all the company's furniture is made.

Models

The Ikea company produces wardrobes of both cabinet-type and built-in models. With the help of various options, as well as a combination of modules, you can equip not only the bedroom, but also the hallway.

The most suitable frame-type model that fits into the interior of almost any room is a sliding wardrobe from the Pax series. It is available in various sizes. The height of the case can be 201 or 236 cm, the depth is 35 or 58 cm, and the length is either 150 cm or 200 cm. In addition, sliding fronts can be selected for any size of the case, not only from this series, but from other collections.

You can choose the option with a dull facade, or you can purchase a mirrored one, thereby visually increasing the space of the room.

The frame and shelves are made of durable chipboard and the back wall is made of fiberboard. The model is of one-, two- and three-frame type. It is easy and interesting to assemble it, because it is a constructor, since the equipment may be different, depending on the preference of the buyer.

Sometimes it is necessary to put clothes and shoes in a hard-to-reach place; for this, the built-in wardrobe with sliding doors is best suited. This type differs from the cabinet one in the absence of walls, ceiling and floor. The complete or partial absence of these elements not only significantly reduces the price, but also makes the structure monolithic, allowing you to use every centimeter of usable area. It is for this reason that a built-in wardrobe is very often installed in the hallway. A good option if there are niches and openings in a small hallway.

A good solution for a small hallway would be a corner option. A wardrobe from the Hamnes series will fit well into the interior of the hallway - not large, but roomy, raised on wooden legs. Thanks to this design, you can easily do wet cleaning.

Any model, if desired, can be supplemented with modules. By purchasing these elements, you will be able to independently create the interior that you need, distributing them in a convenient order. In addition, with their help, you can periodically update the interior.

Internal filling

By purchasing a wardrobe from Ikea, each customer has the opportunity to fill the internal device at his discretion... Along the entire height of the frame, blanks of holes were made for the selected elements. With this arrangement, you can place them at a comfortable height. For internal equipment, the company has developed not only the usual shelves, bars and drawers, but also pull-out baskets and trouser hangers.

Closed drawers, if desired, can be supplemented with suitable dividers or inserts. The inserts are made of soft material and have different positions of the compartments. Perfect for storing small items. The divider is designed for storing belts, scarves and other small items.

An alternative to closed drawers is a wire or metal pull-out basket. Due to its design, it provides a good overview of the contents and promotes air circulation. This element is available in various widths and depths.

An equally interesting element is a pull-out trouser shelf. The design is equipped with several double slats, allowing you to place two pairs of trousers or jeans at the same time on each holder. And the retractable mechanism provides easy access and a good view of the things located.

The clothes rail is selected according to the size of the cabinet and can be positioned either parallel to the length of the compartment or perpendicularly. The latter location is usually chosen for a 35 cm deep body and has a retractable mechanism that allows you to easily reach clothes hanging from the back. On a parallel bar, you can install another additional one, with which you can arrange not long things in two rows, thereby saving space.

The interior of the cabinet can be supplemented with flat pull-out shelves, supplemented with dividers or inserts, special shelves and inserts for shoes, dividers for the frame and many other elements that help to correctly and conveniently place things.

Color solutions

Following its principle, the Ikea company makes it possible for each customer to combine wardrobes not only in functionality, but also in colors. Each series has its own color scheme. Elements of some series can be successfully combined with each other by color. The most popular colors are black-brown, white, bleached oak, oak-like and taupe.

When choosing a particular color, you must follow some rules. The color of the selected cabinet should be in harmony with the interior of the room. If the room is not large, then it is better to choose this piece of furniture in light colors. For example, a white wardrobe will look great in a small bedroom, especially if the color of the wallpaper is in light colors. And if it is equipped with doors with mirrors, then visually you can add space.

A wardrobe of bleached oak color will perfectly fit into a small and dark hallway. For a spacious living room, where a small loss of space is not critical, you can choose an option in black-brown or oak.

In addition to monochrome solutions, you can also make two-tone compositions based on both contrast and colors close in shade. For example, a black and brown cabinet matches perfectly with white or mirrored sliding doors.

Ultimately, each customer, choosing one or another color, is free to focus on his own taste, since the company provides such an opportunity.

How to assemble with your own hands?

In order for the wardrobe to serve faithfully for a long time, it is necessary to install it correctly using the attached instructions. Consistently, step by step, connecting the parts and taking into account all the nuances, you can independently assemble and install the wardrobe. But sometimes, during installation, you may encounter some problems resulting from incorrect assembly:

  • One of them is associated with improper sliding of the doors along the guides, which occurs when they are incorrectly installed. This problem is solved by rearranging the system equipped with rollers on the sliding doors.
  • The second reason is associated with under-tightened screws used when tightening door frames or when installing rollers. Sometimes it is not possible to tighten it, it can be torn off or just go wrong. You can get it with tools, and drive the internal thread with a tap, and then tighten the screw.
  • Roller that has come off the guide due to a foreign object or improper position of the stopper. In the first option, an unnecessary item is removed. In the second, the roller with the lower bracket is reinstalled into the guide, with the subsequent fixation of the limiter.
  • Failure to move the doors is possible due to skewed frame. It arises either due to the unevenness of the flooring, or due to an improperly made frame screed, or inaccurate attachment to the wall.
  • If you can't hang the doors, then you need to pay attention to the limiter. For an internal door, before installation, the part of the limiter is placed in a horizontal position, and then it must be returned to a vertical one. For the second door, the part is transferred to itself, and after installation from itself.
  • If the door knocks when opening, then it is necessary to inspect the guides for the presence of debris and a gap with the guides loosely connected to each other. And also inspect the wheel in the roller system for deformation and the presence of foreign particles.
  • The rattling of doors can be associated with the loss or deliberate failure to install the seals, as well as with poor fixation of the screws. Sometimes, due to incorrectly adjusted doors, the inner drawers touch them when they are rolled out. To fix the problem, you need to pay attention not only to the doors, but also to the frame, leveling it with a level. And also do not forget to check the bump stop by putting it in the correct position.

In order for the sliding wardrobe not to accidentally fall, and the sliding doors move smoothly, it must be attached to the wall.
