1. A wardrobe where the doors do not open, but compactly moved apart. Such furniture will perfectly fit into even the smallest children's room. The correct location of the wardrobe will not only visually increase the baby’s room, but, if necessary, will hide the uncomfortable layout of the room. In addition, materials are very accessible and sold in almost any construction store. At the same time, it is undesirable, making a closet with your own hands, choosing glass doors. Firstly, it is traumatic, since the baby, playing, for example, in the ball, can break the mirror and get hurt. Secondly, on the mirror surface will constantly remain prints from small handles.
Collecting a wardrobe is very simple:
- first of all, we mark the wall with a roulette and a simple pencil. It is necessary to note the place where the vertical stand will be located, the place for attaching the corners for its fixation and the height at which the regiments will be fixed;

Therefore, the scheme - the drawing for the children's cabinet should be made very carefully. If necessary, consult a specialist. The creation of a corner cabinet with your own hands includes the following main stages:

If you want a truly unique thing, then the drawing can be made on your own, taking into account personal preferences, the size of the room, the shape of the cabinet, the features of the future item of the interior.
So, in order to attach a corner module made by yourself to the finished closet-wardrobe, you need to make three fastening points:

- the fasteners to the wall should be as reliable as possible, so the drill drill should be at least 10 mm in diameter;
- since the structure is very heavy, it is strictly prohibited to use plastic and wooden dowels. Anchor mounts with a length of at least 80 mm should be prepared in advance;
- in some houses, due to certain reasons, the floor and walls can be told. In this case, it is strictly prohibited to install a cabinet-bed, since the design will be loosened by breaking fasteners. It is very important to remember this, because in the case of a fault of the structure, the child can get serious injuries.
