What options for white cabinets for shoes exist, and recommendations

To fill the entrance group in a city apartment, a country house with attractiveness, practicality, coziness, charm, comfort is not easy. It is important to be able to choose high-quality furniture with a beautiful design, a high level of functionality. An excellent design solution in this case is a white shoe cabinet, which has a number of indisputable advantages and unique aesthetics.

Advantages and disadvantages

Today, customers have access to different cabinets for shoes for corridors in white colors, differing in shape, texture, size, decorative elements, their absence. The models are different, so their cost also varies widely. Due to this fact, such an interior item can be found in almost every country house, city apartment. But why are white shoes popular today? Due to the affordable cost and attractive design. Let us describe the most vivid advantages of such furniture further:

  • high functionality - products allow you to properly store pairs of shoes of different sizes and configurations. Closed cabinets with mirrored doors reliably protect shoes from dust and sunlight, contact with animals. No less functional are open shoe racks without doors, which, in addition to the main purpose, perform a decorative function. Such designs are relevant for small apartments, which are characterized by tiny corridors;
  • compact sizes - on sale today you can find small, but quite roomy models with a depth of 30 cm or less. They are great for storing mid-size adult men's shoes. But due to its compactness, narrow cabinets do not take much time, which is extremely important in the small entrance group of a city apartment in Khrushchev. There is very little space here, so bulky furniture with large parameters for such rooms is a taboo. A compact, tall, but narrow shoe rack will allow you to organize the proper storage of shoes and free up the space of the corridor;
  • high level of comfort for the user. Many cabinets for white shoes are equipped with additional elements that can increase the level of comfort for a person. These are various shelves, drawers, soft seats, key hooks, mirrors;
  • unique aesthetics - white is considered a universal color scheme that can successfully combine with almost all shades in the interior. This allows designers to create, in truth, luxurious interiors in the usual corridors of the city Khrushchev. It is diverse in its shades: bleached, oak, dairy. Snow-white and so on. White will not be boring, as many people suggest. The main thing is to approach the selection of shoes with such a design with all responsibility.

Among the shortcomings of white shoes, they are called soiled. But, this minus is typical for those apartments that are rarely cleaned by the owners.

With regular care, the dust is completely invisible on a white background, and the remaining dirt is easily removed and does not spoil the appearance of the white nightstand for shoes.

Many buyers say that shoe-boxes of such a universal color cost a little more than standard options, but this statement is debatable. The price range for furniture of this kind is quite wide, so you can choose for yourself the current option without any special difficulties.

Materials of manufacture

For the manufacture of cabinets for shoes in recent years, a fairly wide variety of materials have been used. Each of them has its own specifics, advantages and disadvantages, which is important to understand and consider when choosing a specific model for the hallway in your home.

We describe the main materials used by modern manufacturers for the manufacture of white cabinets for shoes:

  • solid wood - an expensive pleasure, more suitable for spacious entrance groups of country cottages. For an urban apartment, such an expensive purchase is not practical due to the large size of the structure. But in general, a stand made of solid wood in white is luxurious, stylish, attractive, and the material itself is durable, wear-resistant, environmentally friendly;
  • plywood, chipboard, MDF are products of the woodworking industry, with the help of which they produce more affordable, but rather high-quality furniture. Often, the frame of the white cabinet for shoes is created from chipboard, and the facades from MDF. Such a tandem gives the interior item excellent operational parameters and external attractiveness;
  • plastic - used to create cheap shoe racks that are more suitable for a country house. The material is scratched, burns out, but is not afraid of moisture, dust, dirt. If innovative plastic was used in the manufacturing process of the nightstand, then its cost will be quite high. For ordinary apartments in Khrushchev, such an acquisition, although practical, but impractical;
  • glass - recently, designers are trying to surprise the world with new configurations and materials for the manufacture of familiar furniture for the corridor. It was such a discovery of recent years that the white glass shoe has become. It can be translucent or matte, but in any case it looks non-standard, extraordinary, interesting. Such a product is expensive, but it combines far from completely decoration styles. Therefore, experts in the field of design recommend choosing glass cabinets only to those individuals who are willing to live in an unusual interior and are prepared financially.

Additional equipment

Modern cabinets for shoes are equipped with many additional elements. This allows you to significantly increase the functionality of a piece of furniture, add to it attractiveness, uniqueness. Such qualities are extremely important in small entrance groups, because for such rooms it is important to select all the most necessary from the point of view of human comfort.

And beautiful furniture, if it is bulky and solid, will not work for a small corridor.

Structural element Appointment
Soft seat The table top of the white shoe is often equipped with a soft seat of the same color or contrasting color. Wearing shoes, a person can crouch, which will protect himself from an inadvertent fall.
Mirror Often, a large mirror is mounted to the shoebox, which is convenient to look into, intending to leave the house. Such a piece of furniture deprives a person of the need to pick up a mirror separately from the white pedestal and mount it on the wall independently.
Shelves Side shelves are often used on a milkyu shoe rack for storing small items or accessories: keys, shoe spoons and the like.
Key hooks, shoe spoons These small details make the hallway more comfortable, as you don’t have to torment in search of a bunch of keys. She will always be in the same place - a bleached oak hanging on a hook on a shoe rack.

Care Rules

In order for the furniture to demonstrate the longest possible life, not to lose its beauty, functionality, it is important to ensure reliable care in a timely manner. Then the interior of the entrance group will be solemn, elegant, will dispose to rest, relaxation, uplift on the person’s return home.

It is important to take care of the white shoe stand, but how, we will tell. Experts recommend doing the following:

  • white color is distinguished by an increased degree of marbling, although the same can be said of all light shades of wood. In any case, dirt from shoes, dust, droplets of juice accidentally falling on the pedestal and other types of pollution will be noticeable on the eye quite strongly. But the problem is far from this, because if the pollution is removed from the snow-white surface in a timely manner, there will be no trace of it. To do this, you can use ordinary textiles with a soft surface. If the stain is nevertheless dried up and is not removed with a rag, it can be moistened with soapy water. Apply sandpaper, aggressive solvents are strictly prohibited;
  • if small children grow up in the house, it’s worth talking about the impossibility of drawing on the surface of furniture. In an extreme case, pick up wax crayons for them that are easily erased from almost any surface. If the child nevertheless used a felt-tip pen, you can remove it from the surface of a wooden white stand with alcohol or vodka. Moisten a cotton pad in the substance, swipe it several times to remove it;
  • for the cabinet, the frame and shelves of which are made of plywood or chipboard, to serve as long as possible, lay a special film or ordinary oilcloth inside the product. Then the wet sole of the shoe will not come into contact with plywood or chipboard, which do not tolerate prolonged contact with water. This will prevent surface deformation under the influence of a large amount of moisture during the operation of the shoe.
