CliKIT on TVHow to close a wardrobe?
From wardrobe closet doors to glass partitions, not forgetting the timeless classic brought by curtains, there are several ways to close a wardrobe. CliKIT shares a few ideas to perfect your wardrobe, which you visit every day.
What are the different options for closing a wardrobe?
Owning a custom-made wardrobe perfectly designed for personal use is almost a dream for many homeowners. Yet, this is increasingly made easier with options far more accessible than in the past, right at the back of the bedroom or even better when there is enough space: in a dedicated room. Regardless of location, the wardrobe can also be associated with desires and needs, such as the desire to close it.
On this topic, the options are numerous, as wardrobes have evolved over time to offer a wide variety of styles, designs, and layouts. From the glazed wardrobe door to curtains above closets, the hardest part is certainly making a choice.
Sliding doors
The Rolls-Royce of wardrobe closures? Most likely. Sliding doors tick all the boxes when you want to close your wardrobe, and that is why CliKIT draws on its expertise in custom-made creations to take the plunge and offer a solution suited to wardrobes or any space that needs to be closed or partitioned. Elegant and practical since they never encroach on available space, sliding doors also offer an impressive range of customization options. Everything is possible, always with a wardrobe that is shown to its best advantage.
Hinged doors
The hinged door is an alternative to sliding doors and generally, the choice is financial since most of these installations are less expensive than a sliding installation requiring a rail or other technical additions. They give the wardrobe a traditional feel, which must in no way compromise the ergonomics and aesthetics of the installation.
Curtains
Considered by some as a makeshift solution and by others as an obvious potential for decorating and removing the dull look of a wardrobe in the room, the curtain gives owners a fairly wide range of choices. However, it tends to show certain limitations, for example when you want to protect your belongings from dust.
How to choose the best option for your wardrobe?
As you will have understood, there are several options available when you want to close your wardrobe, your closet doors, and any other space where you want to store personal belongings and clothing. As always, the choice between the various possibilities can be made for different reasons. The first may be financial, but an investment that appears more expensive on paper can also provide superior practicality and aesthetics. So, what should be taken into account when closing your wardrobe and ensuring you make the best choice?
Taking available space into account
Generally, it all comes down to space. Yet the sliding door solution, whether glazed or transparent depending on your choice, fits perfectly in any type of wardrobe. Small or large, the wardrobe almost changes dimension when sliding doors are integrated into it.
On the contrary, a cramped space will be even more obstructed if you choose hinged doors to close your wardrobes. Available space is therefore one of the main arguments to take into account, along with always preserving the practical aspect when getting dressed and selecting your clothes every morning in your wardrobe.

Style and room decoration
Decoration enthusiasts need to arrange, visualize, and experiment. The various options for closing wardrobe closets are then considered to adapt to or envision a future decorative scheme around it. Once again on this topic, many arguments point toward closing a wardrobe using sliding doors. Just like a glass partition between two rooms, this addition is unmatched and has the impressive advantage of adapting to all styles within the home and the wardrobe.
As in a Japanese-style wardrobe or in a completely minimalist way thanks to transparent, profile-free panels, such an installation gives you free rein with an always striking effect. Even in a place so frequently visited within the home!
Budget and lifespan
As already mentioned, budget can sometimes be the argument that tempers a dream for your wardrobe. Nevertheless, alternatives exist for closing your closets and wardrobe without abandoning your favorite installation. Of course, a glazed door will, by its structure and the materials involved, be more expensive than a simple curtain used to hide the closets.
However, within the framework of the solution offered by CliKIT, custom-made has never seemed so accessible, and always for the same reasons! The principle is the same as with a pergola or a carport for your vehicle. With a DIY wardrobe installation and a product designed with this in mind, the final result is enhanced by the pleasure of "Do it yourself," a major trend in interior design today.
In conclusion, the long-awaited result is delivered, with savings made compared to a solution decided directly by the manufacturer.
How to install your closure solution?
Once you have made your choice for closing your wardrobe, it's time for installation. As with any work, everything comes down to anticipation and preparation. And if you install a glazed door or a glass partition made to measure with CliKIT, it's almost child's play that awaits you!
Preparing the space
The space will need to be prepared so that nothing obstructs the future installation of the selected profile. Of course, no major work is needed when simply fitting curtain rods, but when adding sliding doors on a rail or glazed closures for your wardrobes, precision is essential.
Preparing your space determines the rest of the work and its success. Once the materials are prepared and ready to be installed, the steps are generally very smooth and it will only take a few hours and the help of a friend or family member to enjoy a perfectly closed and even more beautiful wardrobe than before.
Installation steps for each option
Customers already delighted by the CliKIT concept will perhaps be the ones who speak best about installing the products. By choosing a glazed door for your wardrobe, there is no doubt that you will also join in these praises, making CliKIT a no-compromise solution with perfect style for your wardrobe. With ongoing support at the slightest question and an installation guide provided in both paper and video format, installing a sliding rail wardrobe door is very straightforward.
FAQ
Convinced about the idea of closing your wardrobe? Find the answers to the questions you may still have about the art of closing wardrobes and the installations of this unique space.
What is the most cost-effective solution for closing a wardrobe?
Unsurprisingly, the most cost-effective solution for closing a wardrobe is adding a curtain. It hides the contents of the closets but does not protect belongings and clothing, nor does it provide an installation that is airtight against light and humidity.
What is the most suitable solution for a wardrobe in a humid room?
A wardrobe placed in a bedroom can be subject to excessive moisture build-up. In such cases, closing your wardrobe with a glazed door with sealing profiles proves to be the perfect solution for keeping your belongings in good condition, while also bringing a modern style to the room.
How long does it take to install a wardrobe closure?
The surface area and size of your wardrobe will determine the time spent closing it during installation. But generally, you should not count on more than two hours per closet or sliding door to be installed.
