Radius sliding wardrobes. DIY making

Read the interview with the leading specialist of the company “Quality-Style-Guarantee” Yuri Pogorelov!

Good afternoon, Yuri. How long have you been working in the furniture business?

Personally, I have been working for about 5 years, but in our company there are specialists who have been involved in this business for more than 15 years.

Buying furniture is a serious investment for every family. I want to buy a quality product that will last for a long time and will delight the owners. Yuri, tell me what I should pay attention to when ordering a radius sliding wardrobe?

First of all, you should pay attention to the profile system. Now on the market there are many offers of radius sliding wardrobes made from aluminum profile“Senator”, which was developed for straight sliding wardrobes and is not entirely suitable for the production of radius ones. It is much thinner than our profile, so the reliability of such a cabinet raises questions.

Horizontal profile "Senator"

Horizontal profile "Naraina"

Now look at the photo of the horizontal profile of the Naraina company, from which we produce radius sliding wardrobes.

Our profile is very durable and allows us to give a lifetime guarantee on the door structure. With the “Naraina” profile, you will be sure that the doors will not unbend over time, will not treacherously rub against each other, but will long years give you joy and pleasure from using our radius sliding wardrobes.

In addition, this profile is decorated, which gives the designer unlimited creative possibilities.

Returning to the question, I would like to add that when ordering a radius sliding wardrobe, you also need to pay attention to the filling of the doors and the materials from which it is made (it should be Italian plastic, leather or German transparent glossy/matte acrylic) and production time (we have this is 7 working days).

Today, radius sliding wardrobes are especially popular. What are their advantages?

The main advantage of a radius wardrobe is its versatility, because using curved lines, you can more accurately convey the designer’s idea.

They are also more spacious compared to straight wardrobes. And the original design of the radius cabinet will guarantee that your interior will become exclusive.

What materials do you use to make furniture? What are the lead times for ordering? Is there delivery within Belarus?

We use a wide variety of materials. Our suppliers are Italian, German, Ukrainian, Polish and Russian manufacturers.

Our company Quality-Style-Guarantee LLC is able to satisfy various requests and find the optimal price-quality ratio for each Client. We also provide free delivery of furniture throughout Belarus.

The family decided to order a functional radius wardrobe, but they couldn’t decide on the design. Can such a Client count on competent advice and assistance in choosing a design?

Certainly! Our specialists will be happy to help the Client decide on a design and answer all questions. This is not only their job, but also their hobby, interesting activity in life. It is worth noting that this work is performed free of charge.

Always an important issue for the buyer is price. Yuri, what is it like? average cost radius wardrobe and what does it depend on? Is there an installment plan for payment?

Here I will say right away that we do not make cheap furniture, or rather, from cheap materials. Cheap cannot be of high quality and durable. There are enough such products on the market. We try to stand out precisely because of our uniqueness and are always looking for non-standard solutions standard questions. And cheapness is common and simple. Don't come to us for this.

The price of a cabinet depends only on its size, and fully equipped, including design, manufacturing, delivery, installation is no more than 1000 USD. for one linear meter cabinet arcs. Here I want to emphasize - no more than 1000 USD, and this is real!

So any turnkey radius cabinet, for example, 2.5 meters long, will cost no more than 2500 USD.

We have the so-called “Instalment plan from the company”. It is provided for up to 3 months and does not entail increased costs or hidden bank interest. The contract amount is divided into 3 parts and, together with the repayment dates, is written down in the contract. The first third is paid upon conclusion of the contract, the next third a month later, the last part another month later.

Manufacturing radius partitions is one of the areas of work of your company. Tell us more about this: advantages, what kind of interior they are ideal for, price?

Radius partitions are great for non-standard interiors. The scope of their application is very wide. You can use radius partitions to delimit space within one room or to separate one area from another.

For example, you can use a radius partition to separate the kitchen and dining room if they are in the same room, or create a separate one in the living room work area and a relaxation area.

Radius partitions, like radius cabinets, can be successfully used in the office, where they fit perfectly into the overall business style and at the same time make the room more modern and original, which is very important for business reputation companies. The diversity of the partitions themselves allows them to be successfully used in any room, the interior style of which can be either classic or ultra-modern.

You can make them sliding, hinged or in the form of a blank wall. At the same time, radius partitions can be installed anywhere in the room, as your imagination tells you. Their installation requires a floor and a ceiling, and these parts are found in any room.

Of course, radius partitions are more expensive than simple ones. BUT! For this money you get in return not only beauty and style, you also get a unique, completely inimitable design of your room. Harmonious and exclusive interior will delight the eye and heart.

At the same time, we guarantee that our radius partitions will serve you for a very long time, without requiring any corrections or additions. Robust design profile eliminates torsion of bent partitions. We offer a bottom-hung system for cabinet partitions and a top-hung threshold-free system for interior partitions.

In operation, radius partitions are very simple and at the same time reliable, and the admiration that an interior with radius partitions can evoke is incomparable to anything.

This is visual expressiveness and practical solution. How to emphasize aesthetic perfection appearance a wardrobe with an impeccably organized storage system? Advice from Senator company specialists will help you choose the best option design from a wide range of furniture market offers.

Fronts for sliding wardrobes. Materials and decor.

Manifold modern materials for finishing the facades of sliding wardrobes allow you to create furniture with unique design. When choosing decors and colors of sliding panels, pay attention to some criteria. The finishing option is selected taking into account:

1. location of the wardrobe;
2. geometry sliding doors(straight-line, radius);
3. furniture silhouette (straight, corner, five-wall, combined type);
4. number of panels.

The designers of the Senator company recommend paying attention not only to the aesthetic component of the materials, but also to the safety and resistance to external influences, since the requirements for furniture for the nursery, bathroom, hallway and utility rooms differ significantly from each other.

The facades of sliding wardrobes can be made of natural wood, veneer, chipboard, MDF, plastic, hardened, patterned and frosted glass, bamboo, rattan. Particularly original appearance of the panels can be achieved by combining several materials in a single door leaf, separated from each other by dividers. Inserts made of natural smooth and embossed leather emphasize characteristic style interior

Imitations various surfaces will support general idea room design. It is important to choose the right shades for the frame of the sliding wardrobe facades, which can take the form of horizontal and oblique dividers, edge material, steel or aluminum profiles.

Spectacular facades for stylish interiors.

The modern design of sliding wardrobe facades can amaze the imagination with the breadth of color and texture combinations. The decor, carefully selected with the help of Senator company professionals, will help:

• focus on the sophistication or brutality of the style;
• visually increase the depth of space;
• enhance daylight due to the reflective ability of the surfaces of sliding panels.

Wardrobes.

The place dictates the conditions.

Sliding wardrobes fit perfectly into any room, help hide construction defects and maximally adjust the optical volume of space. However, in each specific case it is necessary to pay Special attention to their installation site. Skillfully combining shades, textures, geometry of inserts from various materials on façade canvases, you can achieve amazing effects without expensive redevelopment.

Hallway

Spacious or narrow hallway corridor type is often characterized by a lack of lighting, so the logical solution would be to use wide-format, film-reinforced mirrors. They will help increase the intensity of the existing luminous flux, as well as see yourself in full growth and appreciate the impeccability of your external image before going out.

Bedroom.

When choosing optimal option When choosing a façade composition for a bedroom, you need to take into account the concept of the interior style and the range of shades. Everything here should contribute to a good rest. The comfort of the atmosphere is supported by a soft palette of pastel colors and natural quality materials.

Children's room

In children's rooms, it is important to use facades with safe, hygienic, easy-to-clean filling. Here it is better to give preference to economical chipboard in delicate colors or plastic panels in any combination.

Photo printing with images of your favorite cartoon characters or computer games will help emphasize the main idea of ​​decorating a children's room. As the child grows up, you will simply need to replace the facades with panels with current decor that supports the teenager’s hobbies or a special style concept.

Bathroom

Happy owners of spacious bathrooms will be able to appreciate the convenience and appropriateness of a sliding wardrobe with stylish fronts made of moisture-resistant materials.

Combination of mirrors and plastic panels with glossy or matte surfaces in milky shades will go perfectly with the snow-white faience of sanitaryware. Bright hues and reflective surfaces will help create an amazing effect of airiness and multidimensionality of space.

Living room.

When choosing decorative design facades to the living room, you need to take into account the style of the room, color scheme and panel area. There is no limit to imagination here. It is only important that the shades and texture of the materials of the cabinet doors are combined with the palette of interior tones, accessories, facades of existing furniture and niches with dishes, with a built-in stereo system and TV.

Wardrobe rooms

Fronts of closed shelves dressing room matched to the tone of the cabinets or shelves. In rare cases, it may be a contrasting shade. As a rule, the panels have a laconic decor, created in the spirit of minimalism, or a classic design, emphasized by ornate handles.

The best material would be solid wood. Her natural properties will help maintain a healthy atmosphere in a confined space.

When choosing the color scheme of the doors closing the entrance to the dressing room, the tone of the sliding panels is selected based on the principle of harmony with the shade of the walls. The material can be used as a mirror cloth or chipboard, finished with natural wood veneer.

Utility rooms and garages

Sliding wardrobes designed for storing tools, fishing gear and accessories, sports equipment, wheels for bicycles and cars are always decorated in discreet, dark colors. In such cases, it is appropriate to opt for inexpensive economical options, made from chipboard in one piece or including special inserts with perforations for ventilation.

What do we do when we come across an interesting new product before we buy it? Right! We are trying to find out as much as possible using all available means. The first article dedicated to radial (radial) sliding wardrobes, was for informational purposes only. The purpose of this material is to cover in more detail this topic, touch on its technical side, talk about the materials and accessories used in production. During the story, we will answer all the questions that were received from our visitors.

The most complex and expensive element radial (radial) furniture is a curved façade, or simply a system of sliding doors. In the process of its design there are no trifles; the slightest mistake can result in serious problems in operation. To manufacture sliding wardrobe systems, we use reinforced aluminum profiles. They were not chosen at all by chance. The fact is that the door filling is made from materials such as HDF, laminated paper, acrylic glass. All these sheet materials have sufficient high coefficient rigidity, which means that after giving them a radius shape, they will put pressure on the door profiles, trying to straighten and deform them. If the strength of the profile system is insufficient, after some time the radius of the door will change and the furniture will become unusable: sliding doors will jam, swing doors will no longer blend smoothly into the overall shape of the furniture.

The cross-sectional area of ​​the anodized aluminum profiles we use is much larger than in conventional systems such as “Naidi” or “Aristo”: horizontal profile (curved) - 60x17mm, vertical profile (frame) - 60x32mm. Such a profile is guaranteed to withstand a given radius when filling the door with any sheet materials. As proof, we give the following example: a profile curved along a given radius can easily support the weight of an adult. In this case, there is a complete absence of any deformations.

Front part profile is decorated with inserts, the color scheme of which depends on the wishes of the Customer. Minimum radius swing door- 600 mm, sliding doors - 900 mm (recommended - 1200 or more). Despite increased rigidity profile, the doors of this system are very light, which makes them injury-proof.

Our furniture uses a bottom-support sliding door system. The advantages of this solution are that the requirements for ceiling slab(in the manufacture of built-in radial (radial) cabinet) and to load-bearing structures of the cabinet itself are minimal, unlike top-support systems. The weight of the doors is distributed along the length of the lower guides. In our opinion, this solution is much safer than hanging doors. The lower support system completely eliminates falls door leaves due to broken fasteners or broken guides.

I would like to touch upon such an important issue as the reliability of the sliding system and the noise level during operation of the cabinet. In our usual wardrobes, there are technological gaps relative to the upper rollers and their guides. As a result, we get an increased noise level when sliding doors operate and some instability (slagging). IN radial (radial) sliding wardrobes this problem is solved in the following way: the position of the upper guides is adjusted when assembling the cabinet parts, which allows the gap to be minimized (the rollers are pressed tightly against the guides). In addition, the very design of radius doors makes them more rigid than conventional ones. This ensures increased smoothness of operation, no swaying of doors and reduced noise levels in the operation of the sliding mechanism.

In conclusion, I would like to highlight such points as dust and dirt resistance and the use of mirrors in filling doors. The vertical profiles of the system are framed with Schlegel ( brush seal). Its main task is to protect the contents of the cabinet from dust. The gap between the compartment doors when closed is no more than 10 mm. Taking into account the mandatory overlap of the doors, your belongings will be reliably protected. The use of mirrors and tinted glass in filling doors is in principle possible. But! Remember the fun room - the whole effect is based on the use of curved mirrors. Do you need such a room in your interior? Let me doubt it! As an option, you can use mirrored flat hinged or compartment sections, arranging them so as to obtain a harmonious flow from the radius to the line. As for glass, in our opinion, acrylic and various plastics are much safer, easier and more unpretentious to use.

I would like to hope that this material will help you find answers to your questions and decide on the choice of materials and components. If anything remains unclear, contact us by phone or using the sections

The production of radius compartment doors is a task for experienced craftsmen with necessary equipment and components. Here important role Almost every detail and nuance plays a role, starting from the creation of the project, ending with the choice of materials and, directly, the assembly. In addition, the design requires precise actions, full compliance of components and the most accurate functioning of all engineering elements. Therefore, it is better to purchase such structures in trusted places with positive reviews. This way you can protect yourself from low-quality analogues and fakes.

It is worth knowing about the features of various configurations of such products. For example, radius swing interior doors are assembled from quite standard materials:

• Loops;
• Accessories;
• Door frame;
• Cloths.

However, their use is not always advisable. In small spaces this will be inconvenient and impractical, so it is better to choose a coupe system. But it also has its subtleties. We will talk about them further.

Production of compartment doors with a radius shape

The production of radius coupe doors involves the use of more high-tech devices than in the previous case. So, steel or metal guide strips that are attached to the ceiling or floor are actively used here. Rollers are placed on the sashes themselves, which will then run along these slats. To install the canvas in a vertical position, use brackets that are fixed to the wall. This fastening method is quite reliable, but only if high-quality materials are chosen. It is worth noting that coupes are more practical and modern than traditional ones. engineering solutions, which also significantly affects the choice of current users.

Practical benefits of compartment doors

The manufacture of radius compartment doors differs in shape and the mechanisms used. If you install such a device in your room, you will not need to think about saving space. After all, when opened, these doors move in different directions and take up no space at all. Therefore, the entrance can be located almost anywhere. Take into account only the bending of the structure itself. The canvas will protrude slightly from the box. But, as practice shows, this protrusion has virtually no effect on ease of use, but it perfectly improves the aesthetics of the interior when minimum costs money and time.

The popularity of rounded cabinets is growing rapidly. This is due to the original aesthetic and structural characteristics of such products, allowing them to fit harmoniously into any interior. About the subtleties self-made We will describe radius sliding wardrobes further.

Radius sliding wardrobes have unusual shape, which allows them to be placed in almost any room. This type of furniture will be especially relevant in small rooms because it takes up little space. Side wall straight cabinet width is at least 60 centimeters. In contrast, radius structures may not have side walls. Therefore, where there is no space for a regular wardrobe, you can install a radius wardrobe. Reviews about such furniture are mostly positive.

These products can be made in almost any shape. Thanks to sliding mechanism, such a design can be easily “hidden” in a niche. Corner radius sliding wardrobes are most often installed in small room. However, it does not interfere with movement.

Aluminum profiles are used in the production of such cabinets. It can be lined with more than five hundred types of plastic, each of which has its own color, pattern and texture. In total, up to a thousand different decorative materials can be used in the manufacture of such a cabinet.

Types of radius sliding wardrobes

Radius cabinet-coupe: photo

There are two main types of radius sliding wardrobes:

• case,
• built-in

In the first case, they are an independent piece of furniture with all the details that a radius sliding wardrobe should have. Built-in products have no back and side walls, as well as a ceiling and floor. Each of these types of cabinets has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Thus, cabinet products are mobile, they can be easily moved, which gives the owner more options. For obvious reasons, the same cannot be done with built-in options. But their shape and size are designed exactly for the place where they will be installed. In addition, they usually have a large capacity, while taking up less space. To install this type of radius sliding wardrobe, you do not need to level the floor, walls and ceiling. To avoid this work, it is enough to carefully take the necessary measurements.

Accessories for radius sliding wardrobes

Any sliding wardrobes have sliding system. In this case, steel and aluminum profiles can be used for its manufacture. It is best to use the second option, but the cost is higher than steel.

As for the thickness of the aluminum profile, it should be greater than 1.2 millimeters. If the dimensions are smaller, they may fall out sheet material facade or anodizing the coating, which will require its restoration in the future. This is especially true for acrylic glasses, which often bend immediately when installed in the profile. To bend this material to a radius of 1000 millimeters, you need to apply a force of at least 100 kilograms. Therefore, when using acrylic glass, you should understand that after installation they will be under constant tension. Therefore, the profile must be strong enough to withstand such a load.

It should be said that today you can find on sale a ready-made bent profile for facades with a width of up to 2500 millimeters and a radius from 300 to 5000 millimeters.

When choosing a profile, special attention should be paid to products from such manufacturers as Absolut, Komandor, Raumplus, Aristo and others.

Depending on the type of sliding, systems can be of two types:

1. Hanging mechanisms.
2. Mechanisms with a lower sliding system.

In the first case, the door hangs on rollers installed in the upper guide. Thus, only the lower part of the sash is fixed. Such systems wear out quite quickly and are considered unreliable. This is mainly due to the fact that the entire load in this case falls on the cabinet.

The second option is best suited for radius structures, namely mechanisms with a lower sliding system. In this case, the door is attached and fixed to the top track. The rollers are installed in the lower guide. This design allows the cabinet to last longer.

It’s worth mentioning the doors of the radius sliding wardrobe. It consists of several elements:

1. So, the design has vertical side profiles, which, in fact, play the role of handles. They are asymmetrical and symmetrical. With the help of the first, the sash is divided into outer and outer side. When using symmetrical profiles, doors look the same on both sides.
2. The design also has upper asymmetrical rollers, with the help of which the door is held in the opening.
3. To install the rollers and fix the door in the upper profile, the upper frame is used.
4. The mounting location for the wheels is the lower frame. Thanks to it, the door slides correctly along the guide.
5. Any door has internal filling, which may vary. For example, glass, mirrors, and wood are used as fillers.
6. To soften the impact of the door, a seal is attached to the vertical side profile. In addition, it protects the structure from dust.
7. You also need a door plug that secures the side profiles.
8. To adjust the slide, you will need adjustment and assembly screws.
9. In order for the door to be fixed in a certain position, a stopper or positioner is needed.
10. Chipboard is used as the material for the side walls, roof and door of the radius cabinet. For the back wall, it is allowed to use fiberboard with a thickness of 3 millimeters.

How to make a radius sliding wardrobe with your own hands

Design of a radius sliding wardrobe

The dimensions of the radius cabinet can be selected using the online designer. Given software allows you to set parameters such as height, width and depth of the future cabinet.

After which it is selected required amount doors, the shape of the future product, the type of material and filling for the door. The result of these manipulations is finished project radius sliding wardrobe.

To ensure the result meets your expectations, you should follow some design tips:

1. So, first of all, you need to decide on the location for installing the cabinet, and what the functions of the future product will be.
2. No more than two sections should be allocated for clothing. Things will be arranged according to the season for which they are intended.
3. It is recommended to make the cabinet depth at least 600 millimeters. This is enough to conveniently arrange the shelves.
4. If you need to install built-in lights in the closet, then its roof will need to be brought forward by about 120-170 millimeters.
5. It is not recommended to make the width of the shelves more than 650 millimeters. Otherwise they may bend. The distance between them should be no more than 350 millimeters.
6. As for the sashes, their width must be at least 500 millimeters. With smaller dimensions they may fall out of the guides.
7. If possible, it is recommended to design a built-in or semi-built-in radius wardrobe; it is more spacious and takes up less space.

When designing, it is also important to know the following:

1. The number of doors must match the number of compartments.
2. The thickness of the chipboard directly affects the strength and appearance closet
3. All radius wardrobe doors must have the same width.
4. To store things you should make drawers.
5. To ensure that doors open normally, pull-out baskets should not be placed opposite the door frames.

Before making a radius sliding wardrobe, you need to measure the width of the walls between which it will be installed, as well as the height of the ceiling. Then you should decide on the type of future product.

Tools and materials

To work you will need the following tools:

1. Drill.
2. Screwdriver.
3. Square.
4. Pencil.

In addition, you will need the following materials:

1. Cabinet drawings.
2. Furniture panel (thickness 18 millimeters).
3. Drawers, handles, hangers, guides.
4. Doors.
5. Necessary accessories.
6. Side, bottom and top false panels.

Work order

1. Using a pencil and level, mark on the wall where they will be installed. vertical racks, the location of the profiles should be marked on the ceiling.
2. After this, mark the height of the shelves.
3. Holes are drilled for the dowels and driven into them using a hammer.
4. We install the mezzanine shelf according to the previously made markings.
5. We install the side profile.
6. We assemble the cabinet contents (shelves, drawers, etc.) according to previously made drawings.
7. We install false panels. They are fixed with a screwdriver to the ceiling, floor and side wall.
8. We attach the upper and lower profiles to the installed false panels.
9. We install the cabinet door. To do this, attach it to its sides vertical profiles. Install door seal(rubber or silicone).
10. We fix the upper and lower door frames.
11. We check that the installed door slides correctly.

Some installation details

1. Radius facades are moved apart using rollers moving along guides. Such roller systems can be supported by a support or hanging method. The ceiling is most often used for mounting them. If you went the same way, then you should know that the ceiling should be made of durable materials. Drywall and similar structures are not suitable for the simple reason that they cannot withstand long-term loads. On average, this load is 30 kilograms. Plus, every time the door moves, vibrations are created.
2. An important point: if a façade is being manufactured with a radius of less than 1800 millimeters, then the design will need to use at least four separating elements. bent profiles. They will reduce the load on the sliding sash frame.

From the above we can conclude that the final quality of the product largely depends on the parameters of the sliding sash.
