• stylish appearance;
• ease of installation;
• a variety of sizes, shapes, colors, facade design options used in the manufacture of materials and components cabinet;

Sliding wardrobes with a niche for a TV are well suited not only for the living room, but also for the bedroom or other rooms, but still you can not remain silent about some of the shortcomings of such designs:

• if the product was not installed correctly, the elements involved in the process of opening the sashes will wear out quickly;

• in cases where an embedded model was selected, difficulties arise when moving it.

People who buy sliding wardrobes should consider not only their positive characteristics, but also those that require special attention.

Varieties

There are several main types of closets with a niche for a TV:

• cabinet - such products usually occupy a whole wall (significant dimensions cause an increase in the cost of furniture design), but they can be moved because they have a frame of walls and a base, which gives the furniture the necessary strength. Case models are equipped with compartment doors that cover the side compartments, and the central part of the structure with niches for the TV and other items (souvenirs, photo frames, vases) remains open;
• built-in - such models are located in special niches and occupy a minimum of space, since they include only sliding doors, shelves and compartments without an external case (this reduces the cost of the product). Built-in wardrobes can significantly save room space, but if you need to make a relocation, the product will have to be completely disassembled, and then reassembled in a new place;
• semi-recessed - semi-recessed sliding door wardrobes with a place for a TV lack some of the elements of the body (only the side, or the side and back walls). This form allows you to install furniture even without a niche, it is enough to choose the right angle for it;
• modular - structures of this kind consist of several sections, which can be combined in any convenient way. You can also supplement the existing kit with new elements, for example, combine a conventional direct cabinet with a corner. So there are additional places for things, and the design takes on a finished look.

Any of the indicated models of a sliding door wardrobe with a TV set may turn out to be the most suitable for a particular room decoration option. It is only necessary to determine exactly what result is needed and, based on this, make your choice.

Niche location options

In such cabinets, not only the features of the general design may differ. There are also differences in where and how the TV is placed in them:

• on the shelf in the middle - the shelf or niche for the TV is located in the central part of the product. A little lower is usually a cabinet and drawers, and above - small shelves of closed or open type. Lateral parts are separate capacious sections hidden behind sliding doors;
• on the wall - the niche is also located in the center, but the screen is fixed to the wall. There is almost no difference compared to the previous version, although the mounted TV looks more modern, and the image on it is perceived much easier;
• in the corner - if the closet itself with the TV shelf has an angular design, then there is the possibility to arrange the screen in the corner. It looks original, but it may not be very convenient;
• in a closed niche - in this case, the place where the screen is located will be closed with special sliding doors, as well as other compartments of the compartment cabinet with a TV shelf. That is, you can open the TV only when you want to watch it, and the rest of the time it will not attract attention.

All other niche placement options are combinations and varieties of those already listed above.
