The entrance hall is an important area for entering the home. Failure to design it properly will bring a lot of inconvenience to future use.

If I could redo the decoration, I would insist on \”8 no decorations\” in the entrance hall! These are really not nonsense, they are lessons bought by people who have been there! Maybe it\’s not very professional, butI hope it can give some help and reminders to those who need it.

No overhead cabinets

Ceiling can prevent cabinets from accumulating dust, but standing on the ground is a bit unreliable. My entrance cabinet is like this. I am too lazy to put away my usual shoes every day. There are still shoes on the floor, which is ugly!

Leave 20 cm at the bottom

If you can redo the cabinet,I must leave space at the bottom of the cabinet to place frequently worn items Shoes, very convenient. The key is to keep the vision clean and neat, without looking sloppy.

The reserved height is based on personal usage habits design. Generally 20 cm canIt can accommodate most shoes. If the shoes are taller, you can reserve 10 centimeters more.

No integrated shoe changing stool

There is a change of shoes Although the area is good, the entrance space of most homes is narrow. Even if there is a shoe-changing stool, it is very uncomfortable to sit in it and you can\’t stretch your arms. It is better not to have it!

If there is not enough space in the entrance, Don’t make a shoe-changing stool integrated with the entrance cabinet, put it on the outside A shoe changing stool will be more comfortable and practical.

No white cabinet

It looks good, but it is too dirty!!!

A little bit of dirt is obvious and needs to be taken care of every day. It is really not as beautiful as the beautiful pictures on the Internet say. If you don’t have the habit of cleaning frequently, don’t consider all-white cabinets.

Select slightly darker A little color, such as light gray or wood color, is no worse than pure white.

No rebound device is installed in the cabinet

The clicker is hidden in the cabinet. There is no handle on the surface. It looks good and easy to take care of. This is true. However, the service life of the rebounder is limited. If you press it back and forth every day, it will easily get stuck over time and need to be replaced;

And to be honest , the use of this kind of rebounder is not very good. Occasionally, it will be awkward to open the door without exerting force…

Therefore, I recommend that you make the cabinet door handle into a groove type, which is also neatly aligned with the cabinet body and easy to use. High durability.

No built-in light strip

Requires advance reservation To bury the lines, you need to cut grooves, which makes the construction more troublesome and costly.

Now there is a sensor light that does not require wiring. Directly attached to the cabinet, automatic sensing. It lights up when people come, and disappears when people leave. It is not discredited when entering. It is very good and the price is not expensive. It is more cost-effective than making light strips!

No fixed partitions are installed in the cabinet

This is true Be careful, otherwise the shoes may not fit in when you store them later. And adjusting the pattern is also very difficult.

It is recommended that you customize it cabinet,Ask the designer to leave rows of holes on both sides, usually every other Drill a hole at 32mm. Mainly to facilitate later adjustment of the laminate and flexible storage of shoes.

Pay attention to one detail:

Reserve a gap of about 1 cm between the layer board and the back board, so that the sloped layer plateDust is also easy to take care of.

No shutter door

Despite the shutter door It’s very beautiful, but it really shouldn’t be installed on the entrance cabinet! After a long time, the gaps are filled with dust, which only adds to the trouble of cleaning span>. It is better to install closed cabinet doors honestly, which is simple, durable and easy to maintain hygiene.

No tilting cabinet

In order to save space, it is not practical at all to make sloping panels inside the cabinet.

The storage capacity is small, and the shoes will stagger when opening and closing. Every time you take the shoes, you have to sort out other shoes, which is quite troublesome.If the entrance space is not particularly small, there is no need to make a tilted design.

Conclusion

In short, a useful entrance cabinet should be both beautiful and practical. Understand these \”8 things not to install\” principle and avoid pitfalls!
