Some people decide to make a wardrobe with their own hands. For this, completely unexpected materials can be used. For example, good designs are obtained from drywall. This is a non-capricious material that can be easily processed, so making furniture out of it is easy, and it doesn't take much time.

Selection Tips
Let's consider some useful tips for choosing a wardrobe for the hallway.
- Measure your hallway before you go shopping for matching furniture. No matter how beautiful and convenient the cabinet may be, it must correspond to the dimensions of the room. For a small hallway, you should not take a bulky wardrobe.
- Give preference to models made of high quality, sturdy materials. It's not worth saving here - a cheap cabinet is unlikely to last long, and its mechanisms will soon begin to make noise and jam. If funds allow, choose elite types of wood, for example, oak - amazing cabinets of the highest quality are made from it.
- Check the operation of all mechanisms. Doors should open easily, without jamming or noise. It is advisable to make sure that all systems in the store are working properly.
- Pay attention to the condition of the facades. There should be no damage, defects, scratches or abrasions on their surface (if they are not provided for by the design). If you notice such shortcomings, it is better to refuse to buy furniture and find another model.
- It is important to select cabinets whose design will harmoniously fit into the existing environment. The design should be in harmony with the interior, and not stand out from the overall ensemble.
- It is recommended to choose high quality wardrobes from well-known brands. Such furniture may be expensive, but it lasts a long time, has a well thought-out design and is easy to use. It is better to go shopping in a proven furniture store.

Accommodation guidelines
For the interior of a modest area, the wardrobe is best placed in a separate niche - this is the best idea. Alternatively, a corner construction is suitable.It is worth choosing a small cabinet, but in which everything you need will fit.
For a narrow, long hallway, the built-in model will be optimal. If the territory has a square geometry, then there is room in it for any type of wardrobe.
When choosing a place for a closet, it is important to consider where the front door is. These objects should not be too close to each other. It is better to place the cabinet at a small but sufficient distance from the entrance.
