The hallway, which has wardrobe or attached small room with access to the corridor, it will always be fine. There is not always room in the apartment for a separate wardrobe, so if you build convenient wardrobe, then you can place in it many useful household items and things. Let's look at how a dressing room in the hallway is made, its advantages and main components.
The main idea of any dressing room is to accommodate a large number of things and maintain order in their storage. The hallway is located near the exit from the apartment, so many items stored in the wardrobe will always be at hand
In the case of such an arrangement, you can not do Big cupboard like in a bedroom or living room. It is enough to make a small rack with doors sliding type so that the room (corridor) is more illuminated and not cluttered with furniture.
The hallway is ideal for arranging a wardrobe, since it can compactly store hats, gloves, umbrellas, outerwear, shoes and sports equipment. If the owner needs, you can make a section for the electricity meter, put an alarm unit, a safe and many other items there. Important point arranging a wardrobe in the hallway - choosing a location.
As a rule, the corridors in apartments are quite narrow, which requires built-in furniture. A budget option provides for pasting with the same wallpaper as on the walls, in which case the structure will look like a niche. If there is an adjoining storage room, the rooms are combined, which will give a larger dressing room area and expand its functionality.
The hallway, which has a wardrobe complex, looks different depending on the way it is arranged. It can be open or closed, as well as a combined model, the most popular arrangement option.
Often owners combine different material, making one part of the wardrobe an open system, and the other hiding behind a sliding door. In this case, cleaning can be done less often, since dust collects for quite a long time or does not penetrate at all.
The room or corridor in which there is a open system, visually look more spacious. Racks or modules are not closed and are equipped with rails for baskets or hangers. The system does not take up much space, but all contents are visible, and constant cleaning is required due to the penetration of dust and dirt. The closed wardrobe method of arrangement resembles a large closet with door leaf there is a mirror from ceiling to floor.
A wardrobe complex in the hallway requires a minimum space of 2 m². This indicator is different for each apartment, but best option– from 4 m² or more. The smallest wardrobe complex may look like a closet, but the use of space in it will be more rational.
If the hallway is small, then there should be a dressing room big wall– doors are made to the entire height and length of the room. Inside, the components are fixed as tightly as possible so that there is no unused space left.
If the room or corridor is small, then the wardrobe complex can be corner. The hallway can be divided by a partition made of plasterboard with a door, with triangular shelves inside.
The rack can be open type, which will make the corridor more free. Arranging a small dressing room involves having a module for storing important things and items at the entrance to the apartment. These are shelves for shoes, hangers for coats or fur coats, brackets for umbrellas and hats.
The owner will have to equip a quality flooring, as dirt will run off from shoes and umbrellas, and walls may be damaged or stained by wet or dirty clothes. It is necessary to provide lighting so as not to look for the desired object in the dark, risking injury with a sharp object or catching other things with a sharp edge. If the wardrobe is closed, ventilation is needed to avoid an unpleasant musty smell. Mirrors are usually hung outside on the door leaf.
An entrance hall with a dressing room can have a frame or panel design. When frame system storage, the base consists of metal racks. Baskets, rods and shelves are hung on them.
Fastening is carried out to the walls, you can easily change the height of the shelves and their position in the structure. Arranging the panel version is more complicated and will take up more space in the hallway. Each module is attached to panels against the wall made of veneer different breeds wood or MDF. The most expensive will be a solid array.
In order not to lose functionality, you should not complicate the project and choose expensive textured materials. Experts recommend creating a dressing room project on paper in order to visually calculate all the modules and components.

Surely, many will agree with the opinion that the hallway is the face and calling card of our home; it is from it that the first impression of comfort in our houses and apartments is created. Wall and floor hangers unable to hide from view many unnecessary, including seasonal, things and small useful accessories, accumulating on surfaces not intended for these purposes, disrupting the aesthetic perception of the hallway and disrupting its ergonomics. Guests, taking off their clothes, hesitate at the entrance, not knowing where to leave their things. The owners, embarrassed, hang the guests’ clothes on the door, put them on chairs and armchairs, creating a feeling of discomfort and sloppiness.
In some cases, this problem can be solved by purchasing bulky and expensive cabinet furniture. An obstacle to its purchase may be limited space or interior features. A convenient way out of the situation, allowing you to make the room practical and attractive, can be a built-in dressing room in the hallway, which can be located in a small niche.

Full extension drawers are designed to use their entire capacity in one lung count access to the far walls. Mesh shoe racks do not take up much space and are easy to maintain. The depth of the closet allows you to use longitudinal hangers for clothes; the advantages of this solution are obvious; this will ensure ease of use of the hangers and will not allow your things to get wrinkled.
The built-in dressing room in the hallway looks like an excellent, balanced solution for saving space, and an independent interior solution having a number of undeniable advantages in front of traditional cabinet furniture.
It is impossible to imagine a home, especially if it is an apartment in a multi-storey building, without an entrance hall. Creating general interior, do not bypass this room either. The main task is to give it functionality. In some versions, one could see a wardrobe in the hallway. But its appearance did not always fit into the interior, and its capacity is questionable. One solution is a built-in dressing room in the hallway. How to arrange it?
Before you start arranging your wardrobe, you need to think through all the nuances. First of all, we are concerned about the capacity and functionality of the design. They provide not only a wardrobe, but also other elements: drawers, boxes and plastic containers.
The use of a closet involves storing things both for everyday use and for seasonal use. Easily accessible open shelves are suitable for permanent items. The space at the very top of the wardrobe is reserved for items that are used less frequently.
In addition to functionality, they think about the appearance and location of dressing rooms in the hallway. In this case, the layout of the room plays a significant role.
Arranging a dressing room in the hallway with swing doors fits classic style interior Its dimensions directly depend on how much space the hallway allows. The original appearance is achieved through a variety of fittings.
According to its structure, a closet usually has two or three compartments. On the top shelves you need to place little-used items. Shoes are traditionally placed at the bottom. The middle compartment is intended for outerwear. Examples of wardrobe cabinets in the hallway are shown in the photo below. You can choose any option.
An obvious disadvantage of furniture with swing doors in the hallway is the fact that it can be used in narrow corridors uncomfortable.
One of the most popular wardrobe options today are wardrobes with sliding doors. Primarily because of the opportunity to save space. They can be attached not only to a furniture box, but also directly to the ceiling.
Such cabinets are placed along some wall in the corridor. Dimensions directly depend on the size of the room. The advantage of sliding wardrobes is the ability to use them even in the narrowest rooms, but with only one inconvenience - the depth of the cabinet will not have the standard dimensions of 0.6 m, but only 0.4 m.
Models of sliding wardrobes for dressing rooms in the hallway are varied, which is why they have gained such popularity.
This type of dressing room is suitable for a small corridor. The trick is that open shelves visually expand the space. The disadvantage is the fact that almost all things will be in plain sight. This entails constant maintenance order and cleanliness.
By appearance wardrobe open view consists of vertical partitions, between which shelves of various types are mounted. Closed drawers are only allowed in the lower part of the closet. In order to somehow improve the appearance and hide things from prying eyes, various boxes are used to store them. decorative look, containers with elegant weaving and more.
For convenience, a couch or ottoman is placed near the department in which outerwear and shoes are supposed to be stored.
The dimensions of a closed dressing room directly depend on the size of the hallway. But, be that as it may, you can arrange closed storage for things in any room. Compared to open shelves, this type of locker room has significant advantages. Firstly, you don’t have to worry about things getting dusty, and secondly, storing things doesn’t require additional storage accessories.
If the hallway is large, you can create your own small boudoir in a closed dressing room. You can place a mirror or even install a dressing table. But, this option should be well thought out in advance, the space should be properly distributed and functional areas arranged.
Additionally, a ventilation system is thought through in the closed dressing room, correct lighting and storage system.
A corner dressing room in the hallway is a good option for rooms with a small area. In this case, if the circuit is well thought out, you can place a large number of of things. Capacity is the main advantage of corner storage.
Experts advise using modular designs: open shelves, drawers, metal rods for placing clothes on hangers.
Many people think that a corner dressing room is quite cumbersome. Visually, this is how it is perceived. To eliminate this drawback, craftsmen resort to a certain trick - the project should alternate between closed and open zones. You can expand the space using built-in large mirrors.
One of the most economical options- dressing room in the hallway niche. Many corridors already have such corners that can be used for storing things. All that remains is to give it a stylish look. Unity with the overall design of the hallway is maintained here.
Space is distributed inside the niche. How many departments it will be divided into directly depends on its size. Next, a method for closing the niche is thought out. We need to arrange the doors. They can be either hinged or sliding type. The material for their manufacture is chosen at the discretion of the owners.

The dimensions of dressing rooms for hallways directly depend on the free space. They can be small, or they can be a whole dressing room. Let's look at a few of their features.
In case of owning an apartment standard sizes, in which the hallway is no different large sizes, you can arrange a dressing room with an area of 4-5 m2. For residents of 2-3 people this is quite enough. With minimal dimensions, the dressing room in the corridor is reduced to an area of 2 m2, which by and large is no different from the usual wardrobe. The main thing is to rationally distribute the space.
Basic tips for organizing a small wardrobe:
If the design of the room allows, then you can also arrange a corner wardrobe in the hallway. The simplest option is to fence off the corner with a plasterboard partition and then install sliding doors. The shelves are mounted directly to the walls. This design has a triangular shape.
Let us also note the simplest option - an open mini-wardrobe. Occupies a small space near the door. Consists of a minimum of elements: a shelf for shoes, a rail with hooks and an upper shelf for hats.
In the case where there is a lot of free space in the hallway, a large dressing room is arranged. To do this from plasterboard partition build a wall and install a door in the opening. Within the allotted space, you can experiment and distribute shelves, drawers and hanging rods at your discretion.
The best option for the price is a built-in wardrobe option. Some of its advantages over cabinet furniture are also noted:
Such a cabinet is best built in large niches, or, if they are absent, next to the wall with the largest area. If space allows, you can install it opposite front door
. In addition, in very spacious rooms, sometimes a built-in wardrobe can act as a partition wall. Everyone wants to have a spacious hallway with a convenient dressing room. But this is not always real. When creating an interior, you have to start from what you have.
There are several design options for hallways with a dressing room. Ideas can be viewed in the photos below.
