3 tips on choosing the right wardrobe for your space

Tired of having a floordrobe? Opt for more storage and space with a wardrobe! It’s the most important feature of a bedroom besides the bed, after all, and these days, it brings in style and sophistication as well as practicality. As a supplier of bedroom furniture in Malta, the team at Carmelo Delia would like to share some tips for choosing the perfect wardrobe to suit your living space. 

 

1. Size matters

The key here is to think vertically and save as much floor space as you can, especially if you have a small bedroom. Needless to say, making all the necessary measurements beforehand is vital. We also suggest ensuring that you have enough room area to comfortably open drawers and doors when standing in front of it, avoiding awkwardly cramped spaces and having to adopt postures that would make Indiana Jones wince. 

 

2. Freestanding vs fully fitted (built-in)

One benefit of having a freestanding wardrobe is that it’s portable; if you’re moving house and going to a new room with dimensions that fit, you can easily take it with you. The space on top of the wardrobe can even be used for storage, and if it’s fitted snugly into an alcove or corner in the bedroom, it makes for a cosy look. 

Built-in wardrobes have many positive features. For one, they can fit into any kind of space and are custom built to your requirements. They’re usually designed to complement interiors and to be in sync with the general decor and colour of the room. Storage accessories are also free to be configured whichever way you prefer, and integrated light fixtures can be used for illumination. 

 

3. Sliding doors vs hinged 

If you’re going for a look that is sleek and contemporary, then sliding doors are for you. They’re best for spaces that are expansive in length as they’re ideally designed with two or three doors in total. They usually have plenty of room and are great if you need maximum storage space for not only clothes, but also luggage and various other household items.

Hinged doors also offer plenty of storage space, just in different ways. For example, you can easily hang bags, belts or scarves on the inside of the doors, making it easy to grab them on the way out if you’re in a hurry. You can easily give them a modern update by choosing handles or shutters with glass panels or metal frames.
