Obuvnitsa the hall: what are and how to make the most

Shoes, ranked in the hallway of the apartment - a familiar picture for many of us. This inconvenience, as you have all the time to stumble on it, and, moreover, badly used space. The best solution for storage of shoes, sandals, boots, etc. - obuvnitsa the hallway. Consider what types of shoe storage systems there are, how they work, their size and the materials used.

How are obuvnitsy closed and open

storage systems footwear (popularly referred to as obuvnitsy or Shoe cabinet) can be closed and open. In fact, all obuvnitsy consist of two side walls, the bottom cover, facades, shelves or baskets, which are installed on shoes, boots, etc. Also, they are divided into several groups:

• Convertible facade on which are attached the shelves, brackets etc. They differ little depth, but the width and height may be very different;

• hinged facades. Obuvnitsy design can be very different (usually the case, a curbstone);

• with sliding doors. Using a system of sliding facades overdue Narrow hallwaysBecause thus saving space.

Advantages and disadvantages of storing shoes in kaloshnitsah

Obuvnitsy, regardless of the type, design and material of which they are made, they have a number of advantages. With these storage systems, shoes:

Another advantage of pedestals and shelves for shoes can be called a reasonable price and the ability to fit them in almost any interior.

The disadvantages can be attributed the fact that some particularly narrow, the model does not differ sufficiently stable and therefore need additional fastening to the wall. Also, narrow and low obuvnitsy can not boast a good capacity.

Types of closed systems for shoe storage

For closed type obuvnits include wardrobes, chests of drawers, cabinets and composite structures with facades. They may be of different sizes, and below we consider the storage of shoes according to their height.

Tall cabinet for shoes in the hallway

Such systems storage shoe - a good choice, especially for the large hall, as they are roomy and look good with other wardrobes (If there are any). Despite the fact that it is not always possible to reach the top shelves, but they are a great location for off-season or rarely worn shoes. In addition, high shoe cabinets can be placed in niches.

Most people prefer to buy a shoe rack in the hallway because of its spaciousness. Moreover, in contrast to the open shelves, this furniture to hide the mess, of course, if it is present. However, this option has a couple of drawbacks: long dries shoes, and the cost is higher than that of other models.

Chests of drawers and a corner in the hallway obuvnitsa

Corridors in Soviet-built homes, and today, too, do not are spacious and the furniture placement is sometimes becomes a problem. In this case, to the aid of angular design to accommodate the shoes. The average depth of these structures does not exceed 300 mm, and this is quite enough to store several pairs of shoes.

This obuvnitsa compact, roomy, inexpensive and also allows you to round the corner and make the completed interior premises. The angular design for shoe storage can be more functional and comfortable, if you combine its soft seat.

Shoe lockers - a design height of 600-1200 mm and equipped with facades. They easily accommodate a family of 3-4 persons shoes. Some models of the chest for shoes in the hallway can be open and have additional shelves and compartments for umbrellas, creams, horns, brushes and sponges. As manufacturers produce obuvnitsy a glove box and the compartments for keys and various items.

Low obuvnitsa with a seat in the hall

Low furniture for shoes in the hall is not more than 550 mm in height and usually has one shelf, sometimes two. Low Shoe cabinet able to accommodate only low shoes: flat shoes, sandals or sandals (boots or shoes will not fit). The advantage of low construction lies in the fact that they can be equipped with comfortable seat and remove or put on shoes in a comfortable environment. This is another opportunity to make rational use of space.

Shoe cabinet "slim" for narrow hallways

"Slim" - in translation from English means "thin". Shoe cabinet narrow shoe in the hallway - a good option for small spacesSince the overall thickness usually does not exceed 300 mm. Obuvnitsa "Slim" is equipped with a hinged facade, on which special fastening or compartments for shoes. However, such a storage system is not suitable for shoes or boots.

Most consumers prefer to choose in the hallway shoe shelf "Slim" because of its size, thanks to which it perfectly fits into the narrow room. Design is made of luxury wood or chipboard, and thanks to the wide range of colors it is suitable for any Interior Design.

The disadvantage is the high price, you can not keep wet shoes, and poor stability. The last point can be corrected by an additional support structure to the wall.

Open shelves and shoe rack in the foyer

open Kaloshnitsy represent Shoe drawer, which consists of two sidewalls, the bottom, the lid and flange. Height obuvnits without facades can be in the range 500-1000 mm. There are several options open kaloshnits:

• conventional shoe racksWhich represent the simplest structure with 2-5 shelves (depending on the height). lateral shelves can be closed for storage of various items;
• obuvnitsa with seat. When buying pay attention to the design of the ability to withstand the weight of a seated person.

Wall hanger with obuvnitsey in hallway

In an effort to make the furniture more functional and ergonomic designers have decided to join together two items and created hanger with obuvnitsey. Advantages of this design are as follows:

The original stone for the shoes in the hallway

Obuvnitsy long ceased to be installed on the floor closed box with shelves for storing shoes. Current models can be wall-mounted performance, and mounted on the walls and doors. Such structures can be mounted one above the other.

There obuvnitsy of wire, hang on almost any vertical surface. Use similar design is very convenient: the shoes are not deformed, well dried and better retains its shape. Hanging shoe racks can be easily installed between a wall and a closet in the hallway, in the pocket or on the pantry door, which will use the space more efficiently.

Among the innovative solutions it is worth noting the model with rotating shelves. Such design will allow save space. They are installed mainly in the corner, and if necessary, take the right pair of shoes is enough to scroll shelf. Rotating obuvnitsa able to accommodate pretty much any size of shoes for different seasons.

What to consider when choosing obuvnitsy

Deciding to buy the hall obuvnitsu and selecting the appropriate model in the catalog or in a store, you should consider a few basic criteria. The only way to make the right choice and after not regret it. Thus, among the main characteristics you need to pay attention to:

• size kaloshnits premises;
• material used for manufacturing obuvnitsy;
• color and style solution furniture;
• manufacturer.

dimensions

Choosing kaloshnitsu, be sure to consider the size hall. Agree system for storing shoes with 550 mm depth is inappropriate in corridor with 1000 mm width, it is best to use a narrow pedestal. Furniture manufacturers offer a wide range of shoe shelves with a wide dimensional line. Also note that depending on the depth obuvnitsy method for storing and filling shoe (inclined shelves, baskets, staples, etc.).

materials

Storage shoes are made of various materials: metal, plastic, plywood, chipboard, MDF and natural wood. Use of a material depends on the type of shoe shelves and its structure. For example, a chest of drawers or cabinets closed type made of natural wood, plywoodMDF or chipboard. Open structure can be made of metal (wrought, pipe or wire), plastic laminated chipboard and scrap materials. The material used largely depends on the cost and durability. Models made of wood, metal and plastic, have the longest service life, but the chipboard and MDF can not tolerate moisture and steam action.

Color and style decision

Modern designers when creating obuvnits do not limit themselves to the use of colors and models offer the most different colors: Strict classical, bright, warm, cold, and even "toxic" tone. Naturally, color shoe shelves should be combined with the style, which made the interior design. Bright pink obuvnitsa hardly fit into the "classics".

If the cabinet or chest of drawers for shoes bought in addition to those already set the headset in the hall, the furniture should be in one color, or you can play on the contrast. For example, if in the hallway cupboard made of chipboard "bleached oak", that will be in harmony together with him look shoe shelf color "Wenge".

White shoe shelf is perfect for a classic, Scandinavian or Provencal style. However, hall light colors - not the best option because it is the room in which we find ourselves right in the street and We bring with dirt, moisture or snow. style solution for furniture in the hallway should be combined with the interior design of the entire apartment. Classical hall is unlikely to be in harmony with the rooms in high-tech style. Especially important to observe the stylistic unity, if you live in a studio apartment, where there are practically no partitions and the method of space zoning.
