Customized wardrobe can be divided into two types:
The first type: brand customizes wardrobe for whole-house.
Generally, these brands that do whole-house customization have their own boards, hardware, and designers, so they are all one-stop service, which will save you more worry and effort. However, the boards for customized wardrobes rarely use pure solid wood. Most of them choose cheaper granular boards, density boards, , and leather. The whole house customization has a high premium, and the price starts at 10,000 yuan. Moreover, since customization is required, the construction period will be relatively long, which usually takes at least 45 days. In addition, if the brand is not reliable, it is easy to have quality problems.
For example, the edge sealing of the board is not smooth enough and the glue is opened will directly affect the formaldehyde emission and moisture-proof effect, and the quality and environmental protection cannot meet the standards.
The second type: hire a carpenter to make the wardrobe on site.
The apartment has special shapes, hardware required, and if you want to customize a pure solid wood wardrobe, then on-site production is a good choice.
Because the design drawings, board selection, hardware, supervisory work and other links are controlled by yourself, the price will be much more affordable than the whole house custom wardrobe. , but this tests the master's skills very much. After the cabinet is finished, the surface painting needs to be painted indoors. The cabinet's process quality, environmental protection and after-sales service cannot be guaranteed. can only rely on conscience.
, and this method of making wardrobe on site is only suitable for new house decoration. If you want to add a wardrobe after moving in, it will be very troublesome. The advantages of both
are that they can be customized according to their own decoration style, and the overall style and color can be followed by hard decoration.
has a special shape, and some irregular corners of the house can be fully utilized, and the space in a square inch will not be wasted. Moreover, the layout of the inner layer panels of the wardrobe can also be customized according to the different needs of each business owner, which is very personalized.
Finished wardrobe
Finished wardrobe is a wardrobe that can be directly used
Since the finished wardrobe is a product produced in large-scale mass by assembly line, its biggest advantage is its low price!
has brand manufacturers in advance for design, material selection, painting and other processes. Pure solid wood wardrobe can also be obtained at a relatively cost-effective price. It is easy to buy and use, which is also worry-free~
Some people may say that buying a finished wardrobe is not easy to match with the style at home and the size is not suitable. But in fact, there are many finished wardrobes. You can find a suitable wardrobe if you measure the size, determine your own style, and then place an order. Whether it is online shopping or physical store purchases!
To put it, the disadvantage is that the finished wardrobe cannot stand tall and will waste some space. But now you can also find some top cabinets with the right size to make up for this regret~
So if you want to be safe and environmentally friendly, and buy a quality wardrobe at an ideal price, the cost-effectiveness of the finished pure solid wood wardrobe must be better than that of a customized wardrobe!
2. What details should be paid attention to when choosing a wardrobe?
1. Material
①Look at the material
The main wardrobe materials on the market are solid wood, multi-layer solid wood, granular boards, and density boards.
The board we talk about is actually mostly composed of base material (core material) + finish. Is it more intuitive to look at the pictures?
A sheet of material must go through the steps of substrate production, hot pressing of the finish and edge sealing. During the production process, different levels of glue are required. If you are not careful, you will easily exceed the standard of formaldehyde, while pure solid wood does not have this problem.
In addition, the nail grip force, strength, heat insulation, sound absorption and moisture resistance of the board are much worse than those of pure solid wood, and the environmental protection is far from that of pure solid wood.
So as far as the material of the wardrobe is concerned, pure solid wood is the most preferred.
But what merchants call pure solid wood is not necessarily a real pure solid wood!
need to keep your eyes open when purchasing. Many veneers can reach the level of fake and real, and most people can't tell it.
Simple method of identifying pure solid wood still needs to be mastered. After all, our money is not blown by the strong wind~
Method 1: Look at the sample: The merchant can provide wooden board samples, whether the wood grain on the section is coherent, and it is coherent to pure solid wood.
Method 2: Focus on weight: Compared with boards, solid wood is generally heavier.
Method 3: Look at the texture, the texture of solid wood furniture is naturally irregular, and there will be scars. The texture of the lining board is the same. Look at the textures of several places, and it is the lining;
Method 4: Look at the auxiliary materials and pay attention to whether the auxiliary materials are pure solid wood, such as the desktop base plate, back plate, inside the drawer, etc.
②Look at hardware
The quality of hardware directly depends on the durability of the wardrobe! door hinge , presser, drawer guide, yarn, handle are all hardware. You must start to experience whether the materials are solid and the guide rails are smooth.
Otherwise, this will happen if you use it for a few years: the hinge page is loose, the hand is falling off... It will take my life if you feel that this door will fall down...
2. Types
The wardrobe has a large size, and under the limitation of bedroom space, you cannot choose the type of wardrobe.
In addition to color and matching, the way of opening the door of the wardrobe should also be an important reference point.
①Door door wardrobe
Door door is a sliding door/sliding door wardrobe. Since the sliding doors are embedded inside, opening the door does not require extra space. This kind of wardrobe is the best choice for bedrooms with insufficient width.
But you cannot open both sides of the door at the same time. If you share it, you will often fight...
②Shoulder door wardrobe
Shoulder door is a door wardrobe, and it is also the most common type of wardrobe. Its advantage is that after opening the door, you can intuitively see the internal structure of the wardrobe, which is conducive to finding clothes.
The bedroom space is sufficient, and a swing door wardrobe is the most preferred! ✅
③ folding door wardrobe wardrobe
Folding door also saves space, but it will test the quality of hardware ~
④ Open wardrobe with side cabinet
That is, add another side cabinet design to the original wardrobe structure, which is usually open. It is convenient for daily necessities to be held and stored casually, but it cannot be removed from dust and dust, making it more difficult to clean.
3. Layout method in wardrobe
The layout of wardrobe is related to the intensity of future storage and sorting and the degree of convenience of use, which is particularly important.
Clothes are not easy to deform when hung, and are more convenient to organize. However, folding storage saves a lot of space than hanging, so make decisions based on your own home situation:
① The space is large enough, the more clothes hanging area, the better, and the storage of the wardrobe will be much smoother in the future, and the wardrobe will be easily organized.
②If the wardrobe is small or there are a lot of clothes, you need to choose more wardrobe with folding storage area.
According to the seasonal changes, the needs of home clothes storage changes. You can choose a wardrobe with a movable partition to facilitate adjustment of height according to needs or add wardrobe accessories.
4. Height width
Short clothes hanging area generally mainly hangs T-shirts, spring and autumn jackets, shirts, etc., 120≥height ≥100cm can meet most clothes lengths.
long-clothed clothes hanging area is mainly long jackets, such as windbreakers, long down jackets, etc., 150≥height≥120cm.
In addition to height, you should also pay attention to the width. If the width is not enough, this will happen:
When each piece of clothing is stored, you must carefully organize the sleeves to increase the workload in vain...
Adults' shoulder width is about 38cm~55cm (including men). Some short coats will be relatively stiff, leaving a gap of about 5cm~10cm. It is estimated that a 60~65cm wide wardrobe can already meet most clothes.
3. Recommended wardrobe for self-using
The first time I customized a wardrobe in my house was because I fell into a lot of pitfalls: the length of the wardrobe hanger area is unscientific, the distribution of the folding area is unreasonable, the overall width of the cabinet body is insufficient, and the hardware is garbage, it will fall after a few years of use... It is a bitter tears if you say too much.
There are cases of custom wardrobe traps first. I have been using it for several years and decided to change the wardrobe. I have always hoped that the layout of the wardrobe is more reasonable, the width of the cabinet is sufficient, and I also want to change all the hardware.
But this time, because I had moved in, I didn’t want to decorate it, so I was afraid of trouble. I also learned that the finished wardrobe was good when I did my homework online, so I focused on the finished wardrobe. Finally, I chose the Genji Wooden Language according to my needs.
On the one hand, the layout of the wardrobe is much more reasonable, and you can also make your own choices to combine and match.
On the other hand, a set of pure solid wood wardrobe, bought at this store, is indeed very cost-effective. Under the quality control of large factories, wood and hardware are guaranteed, and the height width of the wardrobe is more scientific, which saves too much trouble.
Let’s share my experience~
1. Wardrobe can be customized/combined, flexible with
This wardrobe single and double door wardrobe + roof cabinet can be combined at will, and the wardrobe size/material can be customized, and even the extremely narrow space can be fully utilized. My bedroom has a small space, so it is not enough to put a wardrobe. The two are too crowded, so it just happened to add a half cabinet in one wardrobe~
2. Material is safe and environmentally friendly
The main material of the wardrobe is North American FAS-grade oak , which is hard and wear-resistant, and has strong stability.
Some businesses call rubber wood wardrobe oak wardrobe, but in fact oak is qualitatively different from Southeast Asia's rubber wood .
Oak does not equal rubber wood!
The wood growth time, texture and wood grain of oak are enough to beat rubber wood.
So many people say that his oak wardrobe is not expensive because the one I bought was not oak at all, but just rubber wood made by merchants who changed their concepts.
In addition, since the large plate direct assembly process is directly used, the stress between the wooden boards makes the wardrobe more stable and not easy to crack. Compared with finger joint board texture is also more beautiful and elegant.
Just as I got home, this 100% pure solid wood wardrobe received praise from the whole family.
3. Super storage capacity
My family bought a two-door + single-door cabinet combination wardrobe, with stacking area, suspension area, drawer, and low-frequency storage area. My different storage needs are met~ and super capable of installing!
A bunch of clothes on the sofa, just put in the wardrobe...
The length and width of each layout space in the wardrobe are just right. The long-clothed coat and long skirt can be accommodated, with movable partitions, and can also be used for multiple layers of partitioning.
Short-dress area shirts, sweaters, short jackets, and skirts are just right. The shoulder width is enough, so it feels great not to bother to take care of the sleeves one by one.
4. The process and details are very thoughtful
Coating process full score:
Wardrobe painting for Zhanchen clean odor varnish, high environmental protection standards, families with children don’t have to worry about formaldehyde exceeding the standard ~ safe and secure.
The wardrobe just arrived at home and didn’t smell much. I ventilated it for a day or two and used it directly.
Humanized small details are full:

The material is solid, and the buffer door hinge does not fall off. The upper and lower corners of each door have anti-collision pads to close the door to avoid impact sounds;
plus the smooth and silent drawer directly reduces the generation of indoor noise. A quiet and livable living environment is derived from these small details.
solid wood coat hanger, it can bear steady load, and there is no need to worry about hanging a row of coats in winter.
One-door four-hinged page, solid hardware makes people feel at ease! I no longer have to bear the pain of falling half of the cabinet door.
was also very worry-free in the later installation. When it was delivered to my house, the service attitude was super good. I moved the position three times in a row and felt embarrassed. The installer did it without saying a word and helped me analyze where it is better to put it. It's really good!
In short, this is a piece of furniture I bought very satisfied with~ Recommended to all Sumitomo who are watching the wardrobe. Baozi who is not confident enough about the material, you can also contact customer service to send color board . If you see the real thing, it is more comfortable~
Finally, I will summarize my little experience in choosing a wardrobe. I hope it can help you:
1. Choose the material first, the board is cheap, the solid wood is safe and environmentally friendly, and the pure solid wood material of the finished wardrobe is preferred.
2. Determine the cabinet door opening and closing method based on the bedroom space, so that the door can save space and open the door to facilitate search.
3. The wardrobe layout should be reasonable. There should be more clothes, small wardrobe, and more folding areas should be preferred; if there are more wardrobe, there should be more wardrobe areas should be preferred.
4. Pay attention to the size. The height of the long and short clothes should be scientific and not wasteful, and the shoulder width should be sufficient.
sizes below can be collected☆As a reference:
Short clothes hanging area generally mainly hangs T-shirts, spring and autumn jackets, shirts, etc. 120≥height ≥100cm can meet the length of most clothes. Even the longer clothes must be placed in the long-clothed clothes, otherwise space will be wasted.
Long-clothed clothes hanging area is mainly long jackets, such as windbreakers, long down jackets, etc., 150≥height≥120cm.
width, the shoulder width of adults is about 38cm~55cm (including men). Some short coats will be relatively stiff, leaving a gap of about 5cm~10cm. It is estimated that a 60~65cm wide wardrobe can already meet most clothes.
