In order to help you design the wardrobe of your dreams, your \u00e8ggo storage specialist offers you some tips about a very specific subject : <strong>the model of doors for your future wardrobe<\/strong>. Hinged or sliding ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-eggo-eggo-simple-content\" block=\"content\"><div class=\"container container--small typeset\">\n<h2>\u00e8ggo :&nbsp;<strong>quality<\/strong>&nbsp;for <strong>sustainable solutions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Regardless what style you prefer, at \u00e8ggo, we consider the <strong>quality of the materials<\/strong> that we use for our\u00a0<a href=\"\/en\/cupboards-walk-in-wardrobes\/household-storage\/cupboard\/\">cupboards and walk-in closets<\/a> to be of the utmost importance. To this end, both our hinged and sliding-rail door systems are designed to last and <strong>to continue working well over time<\/strong>. As a result, when making your choice, you need to consider your personal tastes and the space available \u2013\u00a0 and not necessarily in that order : the first criterion for choosing, in fact, is <strong>the size and layout of your room<\/strong>. Allow us to explain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Tell us <strong>the size<\/strong> of your bedroom and we will tell you <strong>what door to choose<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Indeed, before thinking about\u00a0<a href=\"\/en\/cupboards-walk-in-wardrobes\/accessories\/\">finishes<\/a>, you need to consider how much <strong>space you have<\/strong>. Is your room compact or spacious ? Depending on your answer, we will advise you whether you should consider <strong>sliding doors<\/strong> or not. Why ? Because a compact room requires you to optimise space as much as possible. And nothing is more effective than a sliding door that glides open and shut and therefore <strong>does not require a lot of space to open<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, in addition to size, another very similar criterion must be taken into account : <strong>the layout of the room<\/strong>. This is because, in order to facilitate the opening of wardrobe doors, there cannot be a radiator, another door or a lamp in the way. If there is, a door that slides <strong>open horizontal<\/strong> will once again be the best choice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/site-lu.eggotest.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/bloc_central_01.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5737\" srcset=\"https:\/\/site-lu.eggotest.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/bloc_central_01.jpg 960w, https:\/\/site-lu.eggotest.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/bloc_central_01-300x156.jpg 300w, https:\/\/site-lu.eggotest.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/bloc_central_01-768x400.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Finishes <\/strong>for all tastes and <strong>colours<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you lucky enough to have a\u00a0<a href=\"\/en\/cupboards-walk-in-wardrobes\/bedroom\/\">large bedroom<\/a>\u00a0that does not require you to worry about optimising space? Then both kinds of doors are possible. When choosing, <strong>aesthetics<\/strong> come into play as, depending on your preferences, you will be able to choose all of the details for your future wardrobe. For both types of door, there are <strong>lots of colours<\/strong>, <strong>materials<\/strong> and <strong>finishes available<\/strong>, giving you the chance to have some fun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Imitation wood, a contemporary design or even moulded fa\u00e7ades : the choice is yours ! Your hinged or sliding doors will <strong>adapt to any style<\/strong>. Forget what you\u2019ve heard about hinged doors being traditional and sliding doors being more contemporary. With or without handles, with a matte or glossy finish, the possibilities are endless. The challenge, therefore, is not in finding a wardrobe that you like but designing <strong>a walk-in closet that will blend perfectly with your interior<\/strong>. Harmony is the name of the game here : avoid mixing styles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/site-lu.eggotest.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/bloc_central_02.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5738\" srcset=\"https:\/\/site-lu.eggotest.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/bloc_central_02.jpg 960w, https:\/\/site-lu.eggotest.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/bloc_central_02-300x156.jpg 300w, https:\/\/site-lu.eggotest.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/bloc_central_02-768x400.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>The hinged wardrobe door : <\/strong>timeless<strong>, with many advantages<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While the advantages of sliding doors have been outlined above, and both kinds of doors offer you lots of choice in terms of aesthetics, what are the advantages of <strong>a hinged door<\/strong> ? Well, be aware that there are many. Firstly, this system is really timeless.&nbsp;It is <strong>very durable<\/strong> and can also be <strong>discreet<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, hinged doors are also very practical: they allow you to open your wardrobe fully and get an <strong>overview of everything inside<\/strong> \u2013 something not possible with a sliding door, where a portion is always out of sight. The internal side of the door also allows you to hang up your outfit for the day while you choose accessories or have a shower. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/site-lu.eggotest.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/bloc_central_03.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5739\" srcset=\"https:\/\/site-lu.eggotest.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/bloc_central_03.jpg 960w, https:\/\/site-lu.eggotest.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/bloc_central_03-300x156.jpg 300w, https:\/\/site-lu.eggotest.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/bloc_central_03-768x400.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>In short<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>First consider <strong>the size and layout<\/strong> of your room and then, depending on what is possible, let your imagination run wild <strong>to create the walk-in closet of your dreams<\/strong> !
