The most popular model for arranging the hall is a sliding wardrobe. This variety is a convenient design for organizing the internal space. In terms of capacity, simplicity and texture, other types of furniture for the hall in the house cannot be compared with a sliding wardrobe. Space saving is achieved due to the sliding door, and the internal volume in which you can freely arrange personal items and household items. Photo of a closet in the hallway.

Wardrobe in the hallway: placement tips
Before choosing a design, you need to learn several important things about the selection of the cabinet and its placement.
- Dimensions This criterion includes height, depth and width. In height, the cabinet can be anything. Often install the product under the ceiling - this is the most comfortable option. The standard height in this case is 2-2.7m. If the ceilings of your apartment are lower, or you want a lower cabinet, place an order for the manufacture of furniture according to individual parameters.
The functionality of the cabinet depends on the size of the cabinet.
When buying or ordering furniture for the hallway, you need to have a full idea of what will be stored in it
Depth can also vary from owner’s desire. In the hallway you can make a small dressing room, which on the outside looks like an ordinary closet. In this case, the depth should be quite large, and the design should be a sliding wardrobe. If we are talking about standard parameters, here the mark ranges from 45 to 60 cm.
In a narrow cabinet, brackets for hangers are placed not along the cabinet, but across
Length is the only parameter that is somewhat limited. The smallest models can be within 70 cm. The average length is 1-1.5 m. Large models reach 6m. If you want more storage space, it is better to install a wardrobe. Its length is controlled by the number of doors. The maximum quantity is 5 pieces.
When choosing the dimensions of the cabinet, take into account the dimensions of the room in which it will stand
- Way of placement. Here we have the importance of the placement of furniture. If the room allows, it is better to install the cabinet against the door, especially if it has mirrored doors. However, the method of placement mainly dictates the size and layout of the room. Based on these data, do not forget that the cabinet should be placed as comfortable as possible.
- Exterior design. This criterion has many options, which we will consider below. Most importantly, remember that the chosen design of the cabinet should correspond to the general orientation of the room.
- Type of construction. This factor has an important role, since the placement method, the maximum or minimum permissible dimensions, and even the external design depend on it. And now more about this criterion.
The shape of the cabinet is of great importance in terms of external beauty and ease of use.
How to find the right place in the hallway to install a wardrobe
It happens that you look at some corner in the hallway and the thought comes: it would be good to put a wardrobe here! And it will look great, and the place is already there. But, do not rush to call the master.
First you need to decide what exactly and in what quantities you plan to store there.
And it may well turn out that this corner is too small and having built a cabinet on such a place, you simply throw away the money in vain, since half of the things will remain unadapted.
And you will spend a lot of money, because there is not too much difference in price between a small and an average cabinet.
Perhaps it would be much more reasonable to place a sliding wardrobe in place of any wall? Or equip a pantry under it? And leave a small corner under any other furniture.
But let's get it in order. To begin, consider all the successful options for placing such cabinets in typical hallways.
Small hallway or its absence
In small apartments, especially the secondary market, hallways, as a rule, are not just small - miniature.
In the same Khrushchevs, for example, not only is there nowhere to turn around, the shape of the corridor is not even, more like a triangle.
In one-room studios - there is no corridor at all. How in this case to place a sliding wardrobe? Moreover, so that he not only decorates the interior, but also can store many necessary and unnecessary things?
First of all, look at the wall adjacent to the adjacent room (usually a living room). If its length is suitable for placing a large cabinet, it is much more reasonable to break it and put it in this place.
Even if you have to “steal” some 40 centimeters from the living room, you’ll get a full repository, not a dummy for beauty.
Of course, this is possible only if the wall is not bearing and it can be removed without problems. If, however, the demolition option is completely excluded, then other options will have to be invented.
You can expand the useful area of the cabinet using its shape.
If instead of the standard rectangle you select a radius, then there will be more space inside, due to an increase in the size of the shelves.
If a pair of sweaters fits on a rectangular one, for example, then on this one all four or five are already. But, this design is quite original, unusual and not everyone likes.
Also, a good option for placing the cabinet is around the front door, as shown in the photo below. Usually this space is still empty or is occupied by an unsightly open hanger with a shoe shelf below.
And this is a great solution for housing, in which the front door leads directly to the living room. But, again, this is possible if the width of the wall allows.
Another great solution is the location of the cabinet at the junction of the wall and the interior door. Only in this case you need to remove it, and you will get a large free space and a partition in the form of a cabinet.
In the photo below you can visually see how it looks in the living interior of the hallway.
The angular arrangement of the wardrobe is also suitable for a small area. Look at the photo below, can you like it?
Well, the most-most practical option for a small corridor is a two-sided wardrobe.
From the side of the corridor, for example, you can hang outerwear into it and put shoes on, and from the side of the room you can fold linen and other clothes.
Of course, such a model is not cheap, but the comfort is worth it.
Long and narrow hallway
This is just the scourge of all three and four-room apartments built in Soviet times. The corridor is so narrow and long that it resembles a passage in a compartment car.
If you also place a sliding wardrobe along this wall, grabbing a good 50 centimeters, the view will come out very sad. And the mirrors will not save ... What to do?
We suggest you break the wall adjacent to any room and push the closet there.
Believe me, then you will be glad for such a decision for a long time. The corridor will not decrease and you will not have to sacrifice valuable centimeters inside the cabinet.
After all, you can push 10-15 centimeters into the corridor, and “hide” the rest of it in an adjacent room. So a full, deep closet will come out, not a narrow one. The price for which, by the way, is the same, no less.
Take a look at the photo below. It shows a narrow and small hallway. But the owners deepened into another room in the wardrobe and now only mirrors are visible from the entrance.
As you can see, the hallway looks quite spacious and comfortable. And if they put a cabinet without breaking the wall, then you yourself understand how such a structure would look.
Wardrobe in the pantry
Also, quite often at the end of the hallway there is a pantry. Why don’t you have a dressing room? And most importantly, making a wardrobe from it will be much cheaper than ordering the entire box and doors from scratch.
Here you only need to equip the walls of the pantry with shelves and put the doors. See how it looks with an example.
With proper planning of the internal space, the result will exceed all expectations, since such "household zones" are usually quite deep.
How to choose a closet in the hall?
A few suggestions for choosing:
- For a small hallway, you should choose compact designs with compartment or folding accordion doors that will not clutter up the room and hide the area.
- Since this room is characterized by increased pollution, it is not advisable to use models in light color versions, which are especially easily soiled.
- In a narrow and long corridor, it is better to place a cabinet near a short wall.
- For a square corridor, it is more appropriate to install the structure in the entire wall.
- The entrance hallway with a large number of doorways can be decorated with a small narrow cabinet with placement in the entrance door area.
- When creating a wardrobe, the best option is to install louvred facades that promote free air circulation.
Wardrobe in the hallway
This sliding design accommodates a sufficient number of things, provides their ordered storage and simplified search.
In the photo there is a four-door compartment in the interior of the hallway, made in high-tech style.
Hinged wardrobe
It is the most traditional and familiar version of the wardrobe, which can have any purpose, for example, to be clothing, business or even book. Before installing the swing model, you should correctly calculate the area in the room, given the opening of the doors.
Built in
It fits easily into a niche, pantry or corner space, forming a whole wardrobe in it. The built-in model represents shelves, crossbars and other components that are attached to the walls, which gives the product special reliability and monumentality.
Modular
Due to the special placement of individual modules, it turns out to construct a model that organically fits into the interior and will be characterized by high functionality.
Combined Models
A fairly popular solution is considered to be products supplemented with a mirror, hooks for clothes, a holder for umbrellas and other elements. For example, the most practical option is represented by models with a shoe rack, bench, ottoman or even with a small sofa, which provide proper storage of shoes, as well as facilitate the process of changing shoes.
No less functional are cabinets with a curbstone, fully meeting the requirements of the corridor. Properly planned design will provide convenient storage of things and a place for hats or bags. Models with shelves on the side or in the middle that can be filled with various necessary objects, books, figurines or other accessories have a very stylish and original design.
In the photo there is an entrance hall with a hinged wardrobe equipped with shelves and a seat.
Case cabinet
It differs in rather modest dimensions, can have a wall hanging mount or be installed on the floor. Most often, a single-door shallow pencil case is equipped with numerous drawers and shelves with closed and open compartments.
In the photo there is a single-door pencil case with a mirrored facade in the interior of the corridor.
The interior of the wardrobe in the hallway
The occupancy of a sliding wardrobe mainly includes insides, in the form of a bar with hangers for outerwear, shelves, drawers or baskets in which you can store various small items or place umbrellas. Also, the design is equipped with a special lower narrow compartment for the location of shoes or even a separate place for household supplies.
Often enough for a more rational use of space, cabinets are supplemented with various hooks for clothes, hats or corner shelves, on which bags, keys, umbrellas and other small items are easily placed.
How to arrange the cabinet?
Several accommodation options:
- In a niche. The design built into the niche is a very convenient and unique solution that does not clutter up the space. Such designs look compact and neat, while contributing to the storage of a sufficient number of things.
- Above the door or around the door. Cabinets with a ceiling mezzanine, arranged around or above the doorway, not only beautifully frame the entrance, but also significantly save space, which is especially important in small corridors in Khrushchev.
- On the whole wall. This option is more appropriate in spacious hallways. In order to further emphasize the overall dimensions of the room, you can choose solid, rather than built-in products.
- In the corner. This arrangement has many advantages. The angular design takes up a minimum of useful space, does not clutter up the room and does not restrict movement in it.
- Under the stairs. A reasonably convenient, stylish, beautiful and practical solution that frees up additional square meters and makes the space as functional as possible.
The photo shows the interior of the hallway in bright colors with a hinged mirrored cabinet located throughout the wall.
In large corridors, high structures are also very often installed up to the ceiling. Such models are sometimes distinguished by built-in backlight, which gives them a particularly spectacular look.
In the photo there is a wooden cabinet under the stairs in the hallway in the country style.
In narrow and long corridors, structures are installed from wall to wall and decorated with a solid mirror or glossy surface, which creates the effect of the depth of space.
In the photo there is a modern entrance hall with a three-winged closet to the ceiling, decorated with spotlights.
Dimensions and shapes of cabinets
An ideal option for almost any room is a corner cabinet. It can have a l-shaped, triangular shape, located obliquely, be diagonal, made in the form of a trapezoid with a rounded or beveled angle, or have a radius design that is especially suitable for decorating a square room.
Such corner products maximize the use of the space of the hallway of any size. A truly interesting shape is the radius model, which makes the surrounding interior more elegant. It can be semicircular, convex, concave, or even a non-standard curved wavy shape.
The photo shows a narrow two-door wardrobe in the interior of the corridor.
Large structures have significant dimensions, which are mainly installed in the entire width and height of the wall. These huge products are quite roomy.
In the photo there is a spacious corridor with a large wardrobe made of wood.
In small corridors, narrow single-door, bivalve or swivel models are often found that not only rationally use the area and correspond to the ergonomics of the space, but also look very stylish.
Color spectrum
The classic color scheme is brown, which is mainly characteristic of wood products. Designs in this color scheme may also differ in dark red, burgundy shimmer or a dark exquisite shade of wenge, often found in classic or English interiors. White, beige or gray cabinets are considered the most neutral, they do not visually overload the space, do not attract extra attention and do not violate the proportions of the room.

Especially effective compositions can be achieved using a black and white tint solution, and blue or blue products help to create an unusual, memorable and bold design, due to which the atmosphere is filled with special freshness, airiness, spaciousness and spaciousness.

In order to fill the hallway atmosphere with pleasant and cheerful emotions, colorful yellow designs or products in accent or soft and delicate green colors are perfect.

Modern
In the modern interior, there are mainly rectangular designs that differ in clear geometry and matte, glossy or glass facades. Sliding wardrobes in this style have a unique sense of style and have an individual and presentable appearance.

Classical
For classics or neoclassics, it is preferable to use wooden built-in models or massive solid structures, decorated with carvings or golden dusting, which are an indicator of the solidity of the interior.

Loft style
In the loft style hallway, dimensional cabinets with a combination of wood and metal, having strict shapes and a rude appearance or antique products made of untreated boards or metal grates, will be appropriate. Such a design solution always looks quite creative and stylish.
In the photo there is a loft-style entrance hall with a hinged cabinet made of metal.
Provence style
This style is characterized by slatted facades, vintage furniture items or designs with imitation of antiquity. Mainly provence, complemented by wooden models in pastel shades, which can be decorated with carved or drawn patterns. Such decor is able to give lightness and weightlessness even to the largest multi-door wardrobe.
Minimalism
Furniture in the style of minimalism is particularly versatile. Facades most often have a natural texture or smooth surface and do not have accessories, such as handles, which makes the cabinet inconspicuous, integrated and visually invisible. In the manufacture of structures, wood, glass, chipboard or MDF is used, light, pastel white, milk or sand tones predominate in the coloring.
Scandinavian
For a scandi interior, they choose the most simple and modest cabinets with a primitive decor, various transformer models or combined designs with a hanger, ottoman or shoe cabinet.
Design ideas for cabinets in the interior
Facades with a mirror have a particularly attractive design; in addition to their aesthetic appearance, they provide a visual increase in space. Special flicker and volume, differs mirror plane with facet. No less original in the hallway look models with transparent, frosted, patterned glass or structures with a smooth glossy surface coated with lacobel, which, due to the reflective effect, add to the space of light.

Quite an interesting solution are products with an open part, made for a showcase or ordinary open shelves, which can be radial, straight or angular.
In the photo there is an entrance hall with a white cupboard with frosted glass doors.
A very popular option for the design of sliding wardrobes is the use of sandblasting drawings, engraving or photo printing, which provides the application of a wide variety of images suitable for any interior direction.
To create an unusual design, elements with stained-glass windows are used, and to give the atmosphere an old look, products with a patina are perfectly suitable. Particularly presentable are models with various inserts, for example, from rattan, pleasant to the touch skin, which has an elegant and expensive appearance, often made in the form of a carriage screed or bamboo, which gives the environment naturalness and naturalness.
If a child lives in a house or apartment, you can buy a separate locker for things for him. Such designs are mainly distinguished by a bright and colorful design and creative design, making them the main interior element. In addition, children's models must first of all be stable, safe and have a sufficient number of compartments.
Corner Types of Furniture
The main advantage of the built-in corner cabinet is its capacity. That will save you from the problems of storing shoes and outerwear and your hall will get a neat look. But there is one caveat, this type of furniture is more suitable for square rooms, in oblong it looks awkward. Often, a corner closet in the hallway includes 2 zones: an open one, equipped with shelves and rods on which things are hung, a blind one is designed to store clothes.
Cabinets with facades closures
Appearance of furniture with a closed front part is identical with a wardrobe. The key difference between this type of furniture and the closet is the way to open the doors. A more compact wardrobe with sliding doors is preferable, but a model with opening wings looks better in the interior of a traditional style. See the photo of the closet in the hallway.
Examples of the successful location of wardrobes in the interior of the hallway
Let's look at a few more interesting ideas so that you will finally have formed the initial concept of the correct location of this interior item, and then we'll talk about functionality and other important things.
In this example, you can take note of the idea of equipping the doors of the wardrobe with hanging hooks.
And here it’s interesting that not only did the wall be removed and a cabinet was put in its place, they also made the radius shape of the back.
This added space on the shelves and in the adjacent room there was a wall of an unusual appearance, which became the highlight of the living room.
Here is a closet that looks like a decorated wall, and not like a regular storage for clothes.
There are tons of options! And all of them simply can’t be listed in one article.
Therefore, let's talk more substantively and consider concrete ideas using concrete examples.
Optimum dimensions of cabinets for anteroom
Typically, cabinets are made with a depth of 60 centimeters. The deeper inner part is inconvenient, since you have to stretch very much for things, and they will be poorly visible.
But, if you have very little space, then you can make a depth of 40 centimeters.
In this case, the brackets for things are not placed along the cabinet, but across. Here it is, as shown in the photo. They can be both stationary and extendable.
So, the most optimal dimensions of a rectangular design are from 40 to 60 centimeters inside.
You should do nothing more or less, since it will be inconvenient for you to use such a design, and in the case of a significant reduction in depth, things will simply fall onto the floor.
Which form should I prefer?
The shape of the cabinet is of great importance not only in terms of external beauty.
Non-standard cases can significantly save space on the outside, while inside remain as roomy as regular rectangular ones. So, what to choose and what are their advantages?
Corner wardrobe
The corner is the corner of strife. One thing is one thing: the depth of the angle is more than a meter and the width is at least one and a half, and quite another is a small cabinet from the front, but at the same time elongated in depth.
Also, two rectangular boxes can be called angular, connected at the junction by a jumper.
Look at the photo, we will show you their filling from the inside, so that you can understand whether the game is worth the candle.
This is a very small cabinet and at first glance, there is a lot that can fit in it! But, this is only at first glance, believe me.
The shelves in it are very narrow and low, the bracket too.
All the clothes that you hang on your shoulders cannot fit in there exactly. Or a couple of fur coats, or already summer dresses ...
By and large, this is a closet for one person and then it is small. And it’s better to put such furniture in the hallway so that you can place as many things as possible for all family members.
Or, as an option, make a closet in the corridor designed for outerwear and bed linen, and build another closet in the room, where you put everything else.
And this cabinet is also angular, it occupies almost the same area, but at the same time it cannot be compared with the first one in capacity.
Here is a great option. You can enter the closet, which means that you have a full, capacious wardrobe, and not ordinary furniture.
And with all that, there are fewer shelves than in the first version, much more things will fit, since they can all be perfectly hung on numerous brackets.
They will be visible well and will not be remembered in cramped cells. And if desired, a shelf from above will fit in perfectly for storing large blankets and bedspreads.
So, as you already understood, the absolute plus of corner cabinets is the ability to fill the always “walking” place with the necessary compartments for things, while everything will be hidden behind a small door.
And the minus is that it’s not very convenient to reach the very extreme point of the corner, especially on the upper shelves. There you can store exclusively “unnecessary” things that you don’t have to use, but it’s a pity to throw out.
Rectangular sliding wardrobe
A rectangular cabinet is good in that it has a familiar shape and many like it. Yes, and plan the internal space is much easier.
Yes, and the external design in this case, you can choose almost any. On a flat plane, mirrors from the ceiling to the floor look great, for example.
We give you an example of a pair of successful sliding-door wardrobes of rectangular shape, since there is no point in discussing them a lot: everything is clear.
Pay attention to how successfully placed the mirror on the second option. The cabinet is essentially two-door, and thanks to reflection, it looks like a four-section and very large!
Spherical wardrobe
As we said above, the spherical shape is very amateurish. But, if you like this option externally, then the internal content in it is solid pluses.
Despite the fact that it occupies a very small area, there you can equip a full-fledged dressing room in which you can close and change clothes.
But here it should be noted that semicircular-shaped doors and fittings will cost you much more than traditional elements.
Door systems: consider all options
After you have chosen a form, it is time to think about what to choose doors. Rather, their plowing system. Let's look at all the options and you will understand what is best for you.
The most inexpensive, quite convenient and durable option. In these doors, one minus is the dead zone, which is formed when the doors open.
But then, on such doors you can attach additional fittings, which is convenient to hang belts and belts, for example.
So, if you don’t have an acute question of maintaining the usable area up to a centimeter, such a system would be a good solution.
But, do not forget that the floor mirrors on such doors will not look good, since you need to fix the handles.
There are no dead spots on the outside, yes. But then it is inside!
If you order a two-door version of the coupe, then be prepared for the fact that, having opened one casement, you will need to stretch deep into the cabinet, for some things that are closed by the second casement.
Or feverishly swap them every two minutes, which is very inconvenient. A sliding system is good if the cabinet is large and there are at least four doors.
Also, do not forget that on a coupe system you need to purchase expensive accessories, which fail more often than simple hinges.
The option is convenient, no doubt. There are no dead spots at all. One minus is that the price bites and the hardware “flies” quickly if you are greedy.
But then it’s up to you to decide what is more important for you: saving or comfort.
We plan the internal structure and the number of shelves
The interior of the closet in the hallway is the most important thing that you should think carefully about before ordering it. It depends on how useful the cabinet will come out. Indeed, it is put for convenience, and not for beauty.
Let's figure out what to distribute with the least loss of usable area inside.
Top shelves for blankets and bedding
Calculating their width is simple: fold the blanket the way you usually store it and figure out how wide the shelf should be.
Height is also important. It is much more convenient to make separate shelves for a different type of linen than to pull out any lower blanket from their piles, and at the same time, what was on top will fall on your head.
Brackets for outerwear
They certainly need two: for long coats and short windbreakers, jackets. To do one for everything means to lose usable area where the clothes do not reach the floor, but you cannot put anything under it already.
Brackets for light clothes
It’s better to do more than push stuffed clothes onto the shelves. There should be few shelves: for T-shirts, T-shirts and sweaters. And the rest is more convenient to keep on the shoulders.
Drawers for small items
Do not skimp on them and be sure to make them closed. In the bowels of a large cabinet, socks and other accessories simply go missing.
Shoe shelves below
Here, too, do not save on special devices and be sure to purchase special grilles with holders. The shoe will fit much more than if you put it in bulk on top of each other.
Popular mistakes in the design of wardrobes
And now we come to the most interesting. It is necessary to know these things in order to prevent annoying oversights at the time of planning.
1. If you are making a sliding wardrobe with a sliding system, do not forget that it takes 10 cm inside. This means that if you order a cabinet width of only 40 cm, then you will have 30 cm wide shelves inside, which is very small.
2. Do not make shelves longer than 50 cm, since they bend over time (and very fast). Be sure to place vertical supports - piers.
3. Do not forget to put the stoppers on the compartment door, otherwise they will open at the slightest slope of the floor when they feel like it.
Well, that’s all we wanted to tell you. Our review has come to an end. Topic: closet - a compartment in the hallway, photos, design, ideas and recommendations - is fully disclosed, and we hope that our information will benefit you.
Choose a design
To choose the right type of design, we will divide the available options according to some criteria.
| Criterion | Kinds |
| Location | Built-in, cabinet |
| Facade type | Open, closed |
| Type of door | Sliding, opening, folding |
| Placement method | Angular, linear, radial |
Now we will analyze in more detail what each of the presented species represents.
Location
By location, we divide the cabinets into built-in and cabinet. The first option does not have its own floor, walls and ceiling. In this case, the cabinet is located in a wall niche. It is placed as follows: to the floor and ceiling are mounted slats, on which doors with wheels are attached. Shelves are also mounted on the wall. This type refers to wardrobes, this is a great option for creating a wardrobe.
The main advantage of built-in furniture is that literally every centimeter of space is really saved with it
A built-in wardrobe can be ordered without rear and side walls.In fact, it can only be a facade with sliding doors that close a niche in the wall
The case structure is a full-fledged cabinet with its own walls, floor and ceiling. Its main plus is transportability. During the upgrade of furniture, such furniture is easy to move to another room.
A cabinet can be a separate piece of furniture or can be part of a modular headset
Facade
By type of facade, the cabinet can be open or closed. The second option is most commonly used. In this case, the existing doors help to hide all the contents, and also to some extent protects shoes and clothes from dust settling.
Closed cabinets are most often used for storage of clothes and clothes.
Cabinets with open facades are rare. This is usually the advantage of a dressing room that has one common door.
A cabinet without doors is essentially an open hanger. Outerwear hangs on hooks and shoes come from drawers
A combined cabinet option with a niche located between the doors is possible. In the open section you can put a chest of drawers or a bench, hang a mirror or a hanger
Type of door
Here we also distinguish several species. The most popular option is sliding. It is used both in cabinet and built-in furniture. Sliding doors look modern, organically in any design and neat. Moreover, this option is most convenient to use.
Wardrobe with sliding doors - the best option for a narrow hallway
A cabinet with an opening door is somewhat inconvenient for a hallway, because it is less compact. In this case, you need to pay attention to which side the cabinet door and the neighboring rooms open, as they can collide if improperly located.
Wardrobe with hinged doors - the most inexpensive option, quite convenient in the presence of free space
Folding doors are sliding, but have some differences. They consist of lamellas, which alternately fold like blinds. This option is suitable for interior in oriental style. The disadvantages of folding doors are that they break quickly and often jam.
High-quality accordion doors are quite expensive, often much more expensive than sliding analogues
Placement method
Here we distinguish linear, angular and radial. The first two types in the hallway are used more often. But, if the room is large, the latter also occurs.
Radial cabinet occupies the corner of the hallway and can be with convex or concave doors
The most common option: a linear wardrobe with mirrored doors. For the entrance, such a choice is ideal.
In appearance, the mirrored wardrobe should fit the overall design of the hallway
A sliding wardrobe is the most convenient for organizing internal filling; other furniture options cannot be compared with it
Corner models are selected in case of lack of space. This view allows you to maximize the use of free space for the storage system.
Such a cabinet occupies an angle between two walls and leaves most of the room free
Determine the external design
Now you can proceed to the exterior design. This criterion should be left in the end, since the design of the structure is of great importance.
A cabinet with white glossy facades is well suited for a small hallway
The best option for the external design of the cabinet for the hallway is mirrors. Such a surface will make the furniture as useful and functional as possible. In this case, you choose a 2-in-1 design, discarding the need to install an additional mirror.
A cabinet with mirrored doors located at the end of a narrow entrance hall will visually expand the cramped space
Doors for sliding wardrobes are usually made of glass, so any print will look beneficial on such a surface. An interesting idea is to display your photo on the cabinet doors. But this option is executed only on order, and costs a lot of money.

Frame wardrobe in the hallway with elements of a loft
For the hallway, you can choose furniture to match the color of the tree. Warm brown shades will add coziness to the room, making it soft and tender. Looks great beige, milk and peach shades. A great idea would be a white wardrobe. The main thing is that it fits seamlessly into the overall design. You can choose this option if the walls or floor are made in bright colors.
An interesting idea for placing hooks for everyday clothes on the doors of a closed cabinet
Using the proposed scheme for selecting the design of the cabinet in the hallway, you will be able to purchase the most convenient, high-quality and beautiful option.

Choosing furniture in the hallway
Creating the interior of their home, each owner will definitely think about how to organize the space in the hallway. It is not for nothing that they say that the theater begins with a hanger.
Properly organized space
The first impression of an apartment or house is created by the design of the corridor.
Poor lighting, the absence of such necessary shelves, hangers, a closet, causes irritation and disappointment not only among the guests, but also among the owners themselves.
We use lighting in the closet
It is important to carefully consider the design of the hallway and cabinet.
For a small corridor
In many apartments, the corridors are small in size. To install a large cabinet in such an area is unrealistic.
We take into account the dimensions of the room where the cabinet will stand
The design of the cabinets largely depends on the size of the room, which should be considered when choosing a piece of furniture.
White color will visually expand any space
If the dimensions are large, you can purchase one or more and place them in a convenient place.
Lots of space - large closet
The best option in this case is to purchase a narrow model equipped with a mirror that will visually increase the space.
Sometimes design options can be completely open
Also on sale are designs with blank closed doors. They have shelves and hangers for storing outerwear and shoes.

Important nuances when choosing
For convenient placement, you should take into account every useful centimeter of available space and listen to the opinion of designers:
It is not recommended to buy furniture made in dark shades. The best option - the color of light oak, walnut, pine, beech.
It is not recommended to buy furniture in dark shades.
Decorate the facades with mirror surfaces that visually expand the space.
In addition, this decision causes certain conveniences for the owners - before leaving the house there is always the opportunity to look at yourself in the mirror and evaluate your image.
For a small room, you should not choose bulky pieces of furniture, in the form cabinets, wardrobes. They must be compact, which allows products to fit into the space.
