Cabinets for sloping ceilings – ideas for perfect planning

There is really not much space left under a sloping ceiling and it is difficult to place furniture close to the wall. If you put a bed under the sloping ceiling, you could hit your head every morning. Sofas and other seating present the same challenge. Cabinets for sloping ceilings are the perfect solution because they offer more storage space and make full use of the available space. Today we are giving you a few ideas for planning a sloping roof cupboard and possible design options.

Low cabinets for sloping ceilings 

The awkward space under a sloping ceiling is the perfect place for a built-in closet. Custom-made closet systems, planned down to the smallest detail, adapt perfectly and offer enough space for your clothes. Such a unique specimen is recommended for sloping ceilings with particularly steep angles.

Have cupboards built in for sloping ceilings

Before commissioning a bespoke sloping roof cabinet, there are a few things to consider first:

– Door type – Sliding and folding doors are perfect for small rooms and take up less space.

– Opening direction of the cabinet doors – When opening the door, the handle should not hit the wall.

– Door fronts – these should be adapted to the overall concept. Matt white or high gloss white? With what handles?

– Organization system in the wardrobe – Depending on the height and depth of the wardrobe, you can divide the space accordingly: clothes rails, jewelry compartments, shoe racks, etc..

Don’t forget to integrate cabinet lighting – battery-operated LED strips, spots or LED lights with sensors would help you to find the right outfit in the wardrobe, even when the light is twilight.
