Appointment

The profile for the sliding wardrobe is combined into a single mechanism through the use of several elements at once, which include the handle, the edging and the guides. The profile provides the ability to quickly, silently and safely open or close the door. How long people will be able to use the cabinet depends on its quality, reliability and material of creation. Profiles for wardrobes are available in several forms, and they differ in the material of production. The most popular are aluminum structures.

Products are manufactured by different companies, and the German element, made from really high-quality raw materials, is considered the most durable and durable.

Varieties

In sliding wardrobes, a vertical profile is used, which can be created from different materials. Also, this item may vary in size, color and cost. When choosing a particular variety, all these parameters are certainly taken into account, since if it is chosen incorrectly, it will lead to the fact that it will be inconvenient to use the cabinet, and also it will not last too long.

Steel

To create the product, high-quality steel is often used. The resulting item has some specific features:

• affordable cost, so every cabinet owner who needs to carry out repair work related to replacing a profile will not incur serious expenses;
• this item is presented in only one variety, therefore it is not equipped with any additional elements that increase its strength and durability;
• steel products are usually produced only by domestic manufacturing companies, therefore their quality is not considered too high, and they are also not always suitable for interior items made in any foreign countries;
• the dimensions of such a profile can be different, therefore it is allowed to choose the ideal model for a particular type of furniture;
• the color of steel products may be different, so you can choose a white element or some other, so it will perfectly match the color of the interior item itself, for which it is purchased, but steel products are available in a limited color palette;
• if during the operation the integrity of the external coating of such a product is violated, the corrosion process will begin, leading to the destruction of the structure.

Thus, steel profiles for sliding doors have both advantages and certain disadvantages, which are certainly taken into account before purchase. If the buyer has a cabinet made by a German or other foreign company, then such a product may not be suitable for this furniture. It is also important that the color of the structure is the same as that of the handle and other furniture elements, and due to the limited color gamut, it is often not possible to choose the optimal color for the steel product.

Aluminum

The aluminum profile has many positive parameters. These include:

• long service life;
• resistance to corrosion;
• the dimensions of the structure can be different, so it is possible to choose the optimal dimensions for a particular interior item, and the width can not exceed even 16 mm;
• the color of the item may be different, so you can choose a product in white or some other shade;
• aluminum profiles for sliding wardrobes are lightweight, so their installation is considered simple and quick work, and also there is no serious impact on the basic elements of furniture;
• a narrow profile, the width of which does not exceed 16 mm, can have an anode coating or can be wrapped in polyvinyl chloride, which additionally gives it greater rigidity and strength;
• aluminum parts are offered both by domestic companies and various foreign companies, so they are perfect for almost all furniture models.

Thus, aluminum products are considered to be in demand and popular. They are chosen if it is necessary to use a thinner design, and it is also important to choose the same color that the cabinet handle on the door has.

Specifications

When choosing a profile, its dimensions, color and other parameters are certainly taken into account. The main characteristics include:

• the thickness should be optimal, but is usually chosen within 16 mm;
• the processing can be carried out in different ways, so an anode or a protective whip can be used;
• the product is sold in separate whips or running meter;
• the design is sold complete with other elements necessary for installing the doors of the sliding wardrobe, and often it includes a handle, rollers, guides and other items;
• the color palette is considered wide, so you can choose a white profile, black or some other, so it will be perfect for a particular cabinet.

A manufacturer is considered a significant profile parameter for many buyers, since well-known German companies supply really high-quality and durable designs to the Russian market.

Dimensions

A profile can have different lengths, like a handle, as well as other elements of a sliding wardrobe. This is due to the fact that each model has different dimensions. Additionally, this parameter is influenced by the features of the production company.

Some door models have non-standard and specific sizes, so they require a thin profile. When determining the optimal profile size, the following parameters are taken into account:

• door leaf width;
• length of docking parts;
• the size possessed by the separators;
• parameters of the closet itself.

If during use the design a situation arises in which the basic elements of the doors to which the profile belongs will be destroyed, you will have to buy new parts. To do this, it is recommended to take a broken part with you in order to choose the optimal profile for dimensions. If it does not have the required dimensions, then this can lead to deformation of the door leaf or failure of the entire door opening mechanism.

Color spectrum

Profiles for the door of the sliding wardrobe can have different colors.This is due to the fact that absolutely all the elements used in the manufacture of this type of furniture must have exactly the same shade.

To paint a metal element, a special anodizing technology is used, due to which an attractive, stable and durable coating of the desired shade is obtained. Additionally, it is possible to imitate bronze, gold or other shiny metals that have an amazing appearance.

If inexpensive steel profiles are chosen, then they are painted in different shades with the help of not too high-quality paint, so often after a short service life such a coating begins to peel and lose its attractiveness.

Thus, for the formation of high-quality, easy-to-use and reliable sliding doors for sliding wardrobes, a special integral mechanism is certainly formed, consisting of several elements to which the profiles belong. They are made of different materials, have a variety of sizes and shades. It is important to correctly select the design to the existing furniture, so that it fits perfectly the dimensions of the doors and the dimensions of the cabinet itself.
