A walk-in wardrobe with a mirrored sliding door is one of the most functional and stylish options to complement your interior.
Benefits
Dressing rooms have become fashionable among domestic consumers relatively recently. But during this short time, everyone managed to appreciate their practicality and functionality. In the dressing room, all things are kept in perfect condition and are always at hand. It is very convenient and practical.
Compartment doors in such dressing rooms are very convenient. They also have their disadvantages, but they have much more advantages.
First of all, it should be noted that doors of this type take up much less space. This design allows you to save space. Therefore, even in a small apartment, such a door will be very good. You don't have to think about how best to place the door so that it does not interfere with movement.
It is also important to note that this type of door is safer, especially if you live with small children. They cannot accidentally slam shut and hit you. Also, in the case of the compartment door, you will not cut your fingers or pinch them.
The sliding door is also much easier to install and operate. In order to choose the right door, it is enough to take measurements of the opening and make the necessary door to order. The doors created in this way can become the embodiment of all your design fantasies, because they can be decorated in almost any way.
Since sliding doors are in trend now, there are a large number of different options even in stores. Buyers are provided with a large color palette and an abundance of decorative elements.
When creating mirrored sliding doors for a dressing room, as a rule, special shockproof glass is used. Therefore, when buying such a door, you can not be afraid that you will break the door in the first few days of its use.
One of the main advantages that makes many people buy just such doors is the ability of mirrored surfaces to visually increase the space. Even if you have a small room, by adding a mirrored door to your dressing room, you will make the room visually larger.
Another advantage is a wide variety of decor. In addition to solid mirrored doors, there are also options decorated with stained glass or patterns. But this is worth talking about in more detail.
disadvantages
But, along with the pluses, this type of door has its minuses. First of all, users note that this type of door is capable of letting in all extraneous odors. Therefore, if your dressing room is located next to the kitchen, then it is better to refuse this option.
Also, if you are buying sliding doors, it is best to opt for the more expensive options. A cheap structure looses and breaks very quickly. If you use your dressing room regularly, then a cheap sliding door won't last long. Therefore, we recommend that you do not save either on the basis of the door, or on its various components that ensure smooth movement.
It is also worth noting that sliding doors are often much noisier than swing doors. They usually emit a slight rustle when opened. But those who have such a door installed in the dressing room very quickly get used to such minor flaws.
As for specifically sliding mirror models, it is worth noting the fact that they are quite easily soiled. Fingerprints, small splashes and other imperfections are immediately left on such a door. They are especially visible in daylight, therefore, when installing such doors, be prepared for the fact that you will have to take care of them regularly.
Varieties of mirrors
Corrugated
The most common option is a corrugated door with a volumetric pattern. This decor looks impressive and can be applied according to an individual sketch.
Stained glass
Another design option for a mirrored door is a stained glass window. High-quality painted details are used to create stained-glass windows. Thus, on the surface of the mirror, you can create unusual pictures that will fascinate and amaze with their aesthetics.
With color film
An easier way to apply jewelry to glass is to use colored film. It is glued to the back of the canvas. You can choose from a variety of sticker options - glossy or matte, large or small, colored or monochrome.
Acrylic coating
You can also apply patterns to the mirror surface using acrylic. High-quality acrylic does not crack and stays on glass for a long time.
Varieties of swing doors - coupe
In addition to the appearance, swing doors also differ in design features.
Cassette
This option is both the most expensive and the highest quality. This design is rather complicated - the door leaves, moving apart, "hide" in the wall openings. You are unlikely to be able to install such a door yourself, therefore, for a high-quality installation, you will need the help of a specialist.
Suspended
This option is simpler and cheaper. The compartment door moves along the guides installed directly in the doorway and opens only halfway.
Hinged doors - compartment
Similar to the previous one and this option. Only in this case are the guides attached to the ceiling or wall. This option is the most common. Such a design is easy to install, and is not expensive, and does not cause difficulties during operation.
