Numerous cabinets can easily cope with this purpose.

Each building is used separately or as a module of a large dressing room. The frame can be ennobled with hinged facades or left open.
All surfaces of the body are made of high-strength laminated chipboard. The back wall is decorated with fiberboard in a shade of the main color of the cabinet. All facades are attached to the frame with special hinges. Facades are presented in the Ikea catalog in a very wide range. The cases are so versatile that they can be equipped with doors from different series.
Types of curtain facades

The best cabinet models from IKEA
One of the most popular models of this global giant are Pax cabinets.
These are design models that are ideal for any interior and any area. Pax products have straight, classic shapes that allow them to harmoniously “fit” into any environment.
This furniture will appeal to those who prefer natural materials and original style.
Pax wardrobes are suitable for both the bedroom and the hallway or living room. To give buyers a choice, the line offers several colors of facades that match the styles and features of the interior.
If previously the majority gave preference to one color, now modules of different colors are increasingly being ordered.
The main advantages of the Pax
- variability. You can choose the depth, height and width, as well as the colors of the frame, according to your taste and the characteristics of the room’s space. Sliding wardrobes from this company come in both corner and wall-mounted;
- Ease of use. Wardrobes and wardrobe systems have smooth mechanisms. There will be no sudden loud sounds here.
- rich storage organization. All sorts of shelves, drawers, hangers and other filling elements will help you put things in order and maintain them.
The Pax line is guaranteed for 10 years.
Hemnes series
Another popular model is Hemnes cabinets.
Hemnes cabinets are made from varnished pine wood. Hemnes products are made in a traditional style, so they always give the interior a special elegance and comfort.
The Hemnes cabinet can easily be “fitted” into an already created interior, either complementing it or making a clear accent.
The products in this line are of very high quality and can be used for a long time. Over time, they acquire even greater attractiveness thanks to the “patina” of antiquity.
The Hemnes series offers the buyer a large selection to fill the cabinet with various storage options.
Textile finishing of the interior space of the cabinet is a brand that attracts buyers due to its special “chic”.

We prepare the cabinet parts for standing connection:
1. We install the screw cylinders on vertical panels, glue thin felt rollers to the bottom of the same panels (safe movement of the floor structure), and remove the baseboard along the length of the cabinet to attach it to the wall.
2. Insert cams and plugs into the horizontal shelves.
3. Insert the plugs into the front plinth and install the leveling feet on the bottom shelf.
4. Prepare the back wall of the cabinet, drill holes for nails with a 1-1.5 mm drill, 5 mm from the edge. 5. Hold the panel vertically and insert the base.
6. Insert the bottom shelf, close the locks
7. Insert the top shelf holding the structure and close the locks.
8. Attach the second vertical panel. The wood dowels and rods on the panel should fit into their holes on the shelf.
9. Carefully place on the back wall and nail the vertical panel and bottom of the cabinet (Ikea has several sets of pieces for the back wall of large cabinets, 4 small ones or 2 pieces of fiberboard). 10. Nailing. The hardest stage is over. The article is ready. Pax furniture frames are attached to furniture straps.
11. It is recommended to drill out an Ikeevsky cabinet with heavy doors to the wall. The cabinet frame must be level! Distortion of the geometry of furniture when attaching it to the wall is not allowed! Also according to Ikea instructions for assembling a Pax cabinet.
Frame dimensions in PAX
Although IKEA claims that this wardrobe system allows you to build a closet for almost any room, the PAX's size and capabilities are still limited.
In the catalog you can choose only 2 types of height and 2 depths:
- Height: 201 or 236 cm;
- Depth: 35 or 58 cm.
Narrow cabinet 35 cm deep
Full size, frame depth 68 cm
The width is also not so simple. There are three standards in total:
I wanted to install PAX not only in the room, but also in the hallway for coats. But precisely because of the width, we had to look for other options for arranging the corridor.
Corner
The PAX system allows you to assemble a corner or U-shaped wardrobe option. To do this you need to purchase a special module.
Unfortunately, IKEA does not yet have beveled frame options. And, in my opinion, it looks more beautiful at a right angle. However, a corner cabinet with a trapezoidal shape may be more convenient to use.
Doors: hinged and sliding
Sliding ones save space, but from personal experience I can say that dressing with such a wardrobe is inconvenient: while one half is open, access to the other is closed.
But in a small apartment or in a narrow corridor, there are no other options except compartment doors.
But among the swing design options there are more of them.
Internal filling
A special joy is the internal layout and storage organization. For this I am ready to endlessly praise IKEA.
Everything is thought out to the smallest detail:
- shelves can be installed at any height convenient for you;
- built-in lighting (to get dressed normally, you don’t have to turn on the lights in the whole room and wake up the family, this is superhuman in relation to the husband sleeping in the room, who got up for work an hour or two later);
- clothes rails (fixed and retractable);
- retractable trouser hanger,
- pull-out shelves for shoes;
- removable baskets;
- boxes, hanging bags;
- drawers and drawers;
- and many many others.
This is a paradise for lovers of order and functionality!
Open wardrobes PAX
A large dressing room is every woman's dream. And with IKEA's open storage system, you can get closer to your dream by placing a mini version of it, for example, in your closet. Or under the stairs.
And if the size of the bedroom allows, you can build a partition from plasterboard, arranging the space behind it.

A variety of models will satisfy every taste
Among the variety of cabinets presented at Ikea, any buyer will definitely choose the model that suits them, be it a simple rectangular white Ikea bedroom cabinet or a glazed bookcase made of stained wood.
In addition to the main cabinets, Ikea offers additional modules for some models - cabinets, mezzanines. These elements can be used to change the configuration, increasing the internal volume of the combination if storage needs change.
Almost all cabinet models are produced in at least two colors - white and black. This will allow them to fit into the design of both light and dark rooms.
Perhaps someone will like it if the modules have contrasting colors. Ikea allows this too - any combination can be purchased in separate sections.
Almost all fasteners, hinges, and guides in cabinets are unified and suitable for any model. However, handles for the doors can be chosen individually, guided by your own taste.
For those who like to move or travel frequently, Ikea offers several models of soft, fabric wardrobes - trunks. The material from which these products are made reliably protects clothing from moisture and dust.
Such models are very mobile, they can be quickly folded into a bag or suitcase, and upon arrival at the site, quickly brought into working position. You just need to unfold the trunk and hang it on a clothes rail or a suitable hook.

Features of appearance and content
When choosing a wardrobe, buyers first of all pay attention to the appearance and contents of the wardrobe.
The greatest demand is for: - corner wardrobes . They are convenient to use in small rooms, because... It is the corner area that offers the greatest potential for increasing storage without reducing available space.
The corner closet holds a lot of different things - from clothes to bed linen. This will leave enough space so as not to make it difficult to move around the room.
Essentially, any corner can accommodate a new module and become another storage area.
- wall-mounted wardrobes. Such cabinets are often installed in large rooms, when there is an opportunity to “walk around” and put large products. They are not only very roomy, but can serve as interior decoration,
— niche wardrobes . Sliding wardrobes equipped with or “fitted” into existing niches best preserve the space of a room.
Mini wardrobes are also great for this. You can save money if you have a niche - you can place an open dressing room there, which is cheaper than a closet with its back and side walls and door fronts.
Due to the savings and space, you can choose a richer dressing room content. For example, build in a mirror and ironing board.
A classic wardrobe with built-in mirrored doors will look good in any room.
IKEA wardrobes are distinguished by their thoughtful storage systems. Moreover, IKEA is constantly developing new and improving old storage systems.
Shelves, hangers, drawers, baskets, hooks, tires, etc. - all this can be combined to suit your preferences and taste. The client always has a choice: he can supplement the internal content with what he needs.
Ikea products are also liked because in addition to the usual colors, the buyer can always order his own, individual shade of furniture. But the company itself also offers a fairly wide range of options.
The store's arsenal includes both simple classic wardrobes and those with original decor. Many models can be found in monochrome colors.
White, beige and gray colors are in great demand because they can suit almost any style.
In total, there are currently more than twelve versions of different tones.
Wardrobes with full-length mirrors built into the doors are also very popular. The surface of the mirrors can be decorated with interesting patterns and prints, which will visually enlarge the space and decorate it to suit your preferences.
A nice bonus is that the appearance of the cabinet will depend primarily on the wishes of the buyer - specialists will always meet halfway and try to satisfy even the most demanding clients.
Sliding wardrobes from Ikea have always been distinguished by their elegant laconicism, harmonious design, decent quality, thoughtful design ideas and fair prices.
This is the course of this Swedish company, which they not only declare, but also comply with.
LEKSVIK series
The wardrobe has an original design in country style. Made from solid pine, which gives it solidity. The framed façade, classic cornice, and carved low legs give the cabinet nobility and a sense of prosperity. Ideally fits into a classic interior or a country-style bedroom.

Transformable wardrobe bed IKEA
The Swedish brand IKEA follows modern developments in furniture production. Therefore, such comfortable and multifunctional items as lifting beds, sofa beds, and chair beds have become bestsellers for the company. The management is making serious investments in scientific developments in this area in order to be ahead and offer the buyer only modern, comfortable, affordable furniture.
Options for ready-made wardrobe beds in the interior.
The dimensions of folding beds are varied - from cribs (for children of different ages), one-and-a-half, double for adults. The bed is equipped with a mattress. At the client's request, an orthopedic mattress is installed.
An orthopedic mattress will be an ideal companion for a transformable bed.
When choosing, you need to pay special attention to the size of the structure. It should be suitable in size to the room where the furniture will be installed. Also an important factor when choosing is the mechanism for raising and lowering the bed. A sales consultant should check it with you.
Even a child can handle the bed folding mechanism.
Folding beds built into the IKEA wardrobe are equipped with gas lifting and lowering mechanisms. Even a child can use it, it is so easy to use and does not require effort. With one movement, the closet turns into a bed, and vice versa. An ordinary sleeping place becomes a stylish decoration of the room if the front side of the bed is decorated with expensive materials and trimmed with mirrors that visually enlarge the room.
The buyer can independently choose the mechanism for raising the bed.
IKEA furniture catalogs offer two types of lifting beds - a horizontal lowering mechanism and a vertical one. In the horizontal version, the berth is attached to the wall with its side. In the vertical version - the end side. A salon store can always complement a folding bed with a chest of drawers, a bedside table or shelves.
