The top is covered with varnish, which ensures the durability of the pattern. The picture will not be erased or burned out. The newest technologies - laser engraving, ultraviolet printing - make it possible to produce high-quality facade finishing and make it unique.
Chipboard. The most common type of facade due to its low cost. There are advantages here: they are solid, durable, a variety of colors, reliable. There is a minus - outwardly rather primitive. But for the interior, this can be a big plus.

Advantages and disadvantages

As already mentioned, the wardrobe is superior in quality to many types of furniture. Even the design has undergone big changes. Now the front of the cabinet acts as decoration. This is a color scheme, an image or a photograph, etc.

In such models, constructive innovations are often used: solid canvases of gigantic height and width, mechanisms that allow you to open the door 180 °, etc.

They can combine chipboard with glass, mirror and gloss.

The facades of sliding wardrobes can be divided into two types - tinted and glossy. The former include non-reflective surfaces. The rest are considered glossy. They have their positive and negative sides. Let's talk about the advantages and disadvantages of this type of facade.

Such a surface is capable of reflecting light in the same way as a mirror.
For the reason stated in the first paragraph, the room seems huge.
You can apply all kinds of color palette, various images, photographs, ornaments.
If the cabinet has lighting, then it will look original. You might think that such a cabinet is not cheap.

Today, sliding wardrobe fronts are leading the market.

The disadvantages include the following points.

On such doors, especially if they are of dark shades, fingerprints are visible.
We will have to systematically carry out wet cleaning, dust is constantly attracted to such surfaces. Therefore, in a house where there are small children and animals, it is better to avoid glossy surfaces.

The coral reef cabinet clearly demonstrates its "modular origins".

Even the design has undergone big changes.

Think in advance about what kind of facade the cabinet will have, weigh all the pros and cons. A wardrobe with a glossy surface will not suit an interior with wood, natural materials and colors, but it will perfectly suit a spacious room with the least amount of furniture.

Hinged and folding (accordion) doors are less popular.

How to choose the right facades for cabinets

If you decide to choose a facade for a wardrobe, you must adhere to artistic standards, carefully study the cost. Know what function it will perform. Cabinets with mirrored or glass fronts should not be placed in children's rooms - a child can easily break it. In addition, you will have to constantly clean it, as traces remain on such a surface. As for other rooms, it all depends on what you prefer, what you like, as well as on the financial ability.

Each type has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Think in advance about what kind of facade the cabinet will have, weigh all the pros and cons.

If it seems that choosing a facade is not easy, we assure you that there is nothing difficult about it. Cost comes first. You need to decide whether you will save or allow yourself any luxury. If you choose a budget option, then the usual one covered with PVC film will do. The color scheme is very diverse here. Such a wardrobe will suit any design. If the room is small, "compressed", then a cabinet with a mirror or glass facade should be installed here.

In the case of the classic version, a tree, bamboo is better. Love something extraordinary, buy a wardrobe with a photo print or some kind of pattern.

Mirrored doors for wardrobes are very convenient - in them you can see yourself in full growth and from all sides.

What material you prefer is up to you, but facades made of natural material will look stylish in any interior.

Decorating facades for cabinets with your own hands

The old wardrobe has become unusable, but it is a pity to throw it away. You can update it - decorate it. There are many options for this.

Photo wallpaper or photo printing - is widely used in the design of the facade. The downside is that this service is not cheap and is done in a special workshop. Wall murals are a more budgetary option. Drawings can be very diverse - landscapes, flora, fauna, fairy-tale characters (for a children's room).

Vinyl stickers or stained glass film - something that can be done in a short time, without any effort, without special knowledge. This is very popular. For facades with mirror and glass surfaces, matting is used. It is made with a special paste. A stencil is applied to the plane, a paste is applied with a rubber spatula. Let it dry for a while.

If we are talking about the facades of the dressing room, then the mirror should be built not outside, but inside.

Apply vinyl or ordinary paper wallpaper. They work best - they are easier to glue and more advantageous at cost. The original option will be decorative plaster. You will need another stencil. The result is a three-dimensional pictorial drawing. You can paint it if you want.
