Shoe rack, ironing board, holders forties, pull-out shelves… What should you fill your closet or dressing room with to make the storage space as functional and useful as possible? We have prepared for you an overview of devices and equipment without which your closet will be sad No matter how elegant and extravagant the appearance of the closet is, its main advantage is hidden inside. After all, only this piece of furniture will be truly useful, allowing you to keep as many of our things in order as possible. But in addition to the shelves and drawers familiar to all of us, today there is a huge variety of other all kinds of devices and equipment that can significantly help with the arrangement of the closet. Therefore, let's see what manufacturers of such accessories can offer us for maximum convenience, and also try to understand all the nuances of these miracle things.
1. Shoe rack
Most often it is open,a slightly inclined shelf with metal bars on which shoe holders are attached. Thanks to this structure, shoes are well ventilated and always remain in sight. Shoe racks are often installed in the lower sections of a cabinet, which allows you to use this space more efficiently. But shoe racks are not only in cabinets, for example, similar storage systems from the Swedish company Elfa are also available for pantries and dressing rooms. And the Danish brand BoConcept focuses not only on regular shoe racks, but also on models with special clamps for storing tall shoes. Our opinion: - Despite the fact that a shoe rack can be purchased separately from a cabinet and from a completely different manufacturer, doing so is not recommended. There are several reasons for this. Firstly, a complex order will be processed and made much faster. And secondly, the difference in the quality of materials can affect the appearance of the cabinet, in addition, the difference in company standards often leads to confusion in sizes. So it is better to order everything at once and in one place. This applies not only to shoe racks, but also to all the "fillings".
2. Trouser rack
This lifesaving organizer is not designednot only for men, but also for business women who prefer trouser suits. Of course, there are longitudinal trouser storage systems that are attached to the wall, but today pull-out trouser racks with transverse rods are more popular. In addition, an individual holder for each individual pair will protect them from accidental slipping. Such an accessory will allow you to spend less time at the ironing board, and this cannot but please, unless you love ironing. Be that as it may, a pull-out trouser rack from the KOMPLEMENT series from IKEA (the entire series is designed for PAX wardrobes) will cost only 1,200 rubles, but the models of the German brand Wackenhut or the Italian Vibo, although more original, will cost several times more.
3. Drawers with dividers
Special thanks go to the one whoinvented drawers with dividers. This convenient organizer allows you to store watches, twisted belts, various jewelry, bracelets and even ties in perfect order. Now you don’t have to rummage through the chaos of accessories every day, wasting precious time to find the right cufflinks. Usually, drawers with dividers are pull-out and divided into small sections measuring 10 x 10 centimeters. And for lovers of beautiful makeup, demanding to the conditions for storing cosmetics, there are even compartments with a refrigeration function, which significantly extends the life of many creams and other cosmetic accessories. Basically, the dividers themselves are sold separately from the drawers and can be of different sizes. The price range is also quite wide - if you pay only 700 rubles for them, then in BoConcept you will have to leave 267 euros.
4. Tie and belt holders
Compact ones will help you save even more spaceholders for belts and ties. They can be rectangular or round - choose to your taste, but as for fasteners, it is better to give preference to retractable ones rather than stationary ones. Such an accessory will also be useful for girls, as it is perfect for storing a collection of scarves and shawls.
5. Furniture lift-pantograph
This strange thing is better known asfurniture lift, and it can be very useful. The pantograph is a combination of rods and a lifting mechanism, which makes it possible to store things directly under the ceiling, which means that you will save a huge amount of space with it. At any time, lower it, take the desired item of clothing and return it back to the top. Just keep in mind that many models are not designed for very heavy things like fur coats, although you are unlikely to want to store them under the ceiling. In any case, we advise you to clarify before buying a pantograph how much weight it can withstand.
6. Laundry basket
Usually, people not only get dressed near the closet, butand undress. Sometimes things need to be sent straight to the wash, but laziness often prevents them from being taken straight to the laundry basket in the bathroom. Therefore, in order not to go far, you can now store dirty things in . For this purpose, special textile bags with a metal frame have been developed that slide out like drawers. Some manufacturers even make several compartments for white, colored and black things. To avoid unpleasant odors, they provide an internal ventilation system in the closet, as well as the presence of aromatic bags - sachets. Our opinion: - The BoConcept website has a wonderful opportunity to "conjure" in a 3D constructor over the internal contents of the closet and create exactly the design that suits you best. Just drag and place all the necessary components and in the end you will get not only a finished picture, but also an automatically calculated price for this whole hodgepodge.
7. Pull-out shelves
Such shelves are very convenient not only becauseThey are easy to pull out and often provide a 100% visual overview and access to the contents, but also have internal organizers. For example, IKEA offers ready-made options with inserts for jewelry or shoes. But even without any additions, pull-out shelves with sides are very convenient, as they will prevent a stack of clothes or towels from sliding down. The Wackenhut brand has quite practical models, they come with transparent front sides.
8. Metal baskets
Recently, they have become increasingly popularmetal baskets for storing things, they are already widely used along with standard boxes and shelves. Such systems have a lot of advantages, because the aluminum frame is much lighter than wooden elements, and the mesh structure does not allow dust to accumulate. And all this despite the fact that the capacity of metal baskets is no less, or even more.
9. Compact ironing board
If you like to fiddle with an ironing boardthroughout the house and you never miss such an opportunity, then this option is not exactly what you are looking for. But for everyone else, a small ironing board built into the closet will definitely be a valuable find. The good thing is that such a solution takes up very little space and does not interfere with access to the shelves. The ironing board is most often folding and mounted to the side wall of the wardrobe, but there are also pull-out models, such as those from the German company Hettich. When you open the drawer, it automatically folds out and rises to a convenient height for ironing.
10. Containers
These are specific but quite useful systems.are perfect for storing dust-sensitive items. These can be hats or other accessories made of expensive and sophisticated materials that require careful care. The containers themselves are mainly made of transparent plastic or organic glass.
