One. How to calculate the square footage for a complete wardrobe?
1、Projection Area Calculation: The calculation of the projection area for wardrobes is relatively simple. The calculation of the projection area for custom wardrobes refers to the width multiplied by the height of the wardrobe when it is standing against the wall, which is the projection area of the wardrobe. Then, multiply this by the unit price to determine the price of the wardrobe. For example, if a wardrobe has a width of 2 meters, a height of 2.8 meters, and a unit price of 998 yuan per square meter, the price of the wardrobe is 2 x 2.8 x 998 = 5588 yuan.
2、Area Calculation Algorithm: The area calculation algorithm used in pricing custom wardrobes is widely adopted but relatively complex. The calculation involves summing the square footage of all the boards used in the wardrobe design based on the dimensions provided by the customer. After the customer provides the design plan and confirms the specifications, the vendor calculates the price by multiplying the total area of the boards used by the unit price of the boards of different thicknesses.
Two. What should be considered when customizing wardrobes?
1、The cabinet should have at least 3 drawers.
Custom-made wardrobes typically charge extra for each drawer, so many people opt to save money by ordering only 1-2 drawers. However, once they move in, they often find that the standard wardrobe drawers are actually quite useful for storing undergarments, socks, and important documents. Therefore, when ordering a custom wardrobe, it's advisable to include 3-4 drawers to avoid this issue.
2. Avoid installing clothes racks too high.
The height of the hanging rod inside the wardrobe should be determined based on the owner's height. If there are small individuals in the household, it is recommended not to install the hanging rod too high, as this will make it difficult to hang and retrieve clothes later. The ideal height for installing the hanging rod is the owner's height plus 20 cm. The distance between the hanging rod and the top of the wardrobe should be 40 mm to 60 mm.
3. Wardrobes should not be designed with sliding doors.
Many people find sliding doors for closets to be space-saving, but in reality, they are inconvenient. If there are clothes inside that haven't been folded, they can get stuck and prevent you from opening the door. Furthermore, sliding doors have a track at the bottom that is prone to collecting dust, making cleaning difficult.
4、The internal space layout of the wardrobe should be organized and well-planned.
The internal partitioning of the wardrobe should be determined based on the homeowner's clothing habits. Typically, a wardrobe will have sections for long garments, short garments, and folded garments. If you frequently wear long dresses or coats, it's advisable to allocate more space for long garment storage. If you feel that hanging space is being wasted, you can create folding spaces using multi-tiered shelves. Folding spaces offer better storage functionality compared to hanging spaces.
5、Absolutely avoid using fixed grid frames.
The shelving system for closets looks quite practical, and it can be seen that it can be used to store small items such as socks and belts. However, when you actually use it, you will find that it is not so practical. The shelves are fixed, and larger items cannot be placed in them. Therefore, it is recommended not to install fixed shelves. Instead, you can directly purchase shelves that can be flexibly adjusted.
6、Do not use a trouser press.
In reality, the utilization rate of trouser racks is often very low after people move in. Families typically do not wear formal trousers frequently, and trousers are usually hung up or neatly folded after washing. Therefore, trouser racks are not recommended, as they can be a waste of money and space.
7、Install more movable partitions.
The shelving area inside the cabinet should use adjustable and movable shelves that can be raised or lowered to allow for flexible use in the future.
8、Please remember to install a foldable mirror for the wardrobe.
When customizing wardrobes, don't skimp on the mirrors. Mirrors are not expensive, and you can typically find them for a few hundred dollars. When choosing mirrors, opt for those that can be folded, so you don't have to worry about the mirror facing your bed when the cabinet doors are closed.
9、Wardrobe doors should have cushioning.
The cabinet door panels must have adequate cushioning to prevent excessive noise when closing the door. Therefore, do not skimp on this expense.
10、The wardrobe should extend to the ceiling.
To achieve a visually appealing and functional custom wardrobe, consider the following:* Extend the wardrobe to the ceiling to create a clean, aesthetically pleasing look and prevent dust accumulation.* Incorporate storage for bulky items like bedding, maximizing space utilization.* Use a suitable interface treatment agent on the substrate to ensure proper adhesion and prevent moisture issues.
