Secret hallway. Tips for the home master

Builder, home master

Behind the scenes of the hanger, if you make it movable, you can hide the built-in wardrobe in your hallway or even a small closet.

Such a "two-layer" home wardrobe solution in combination with standard room niches allows not only the most economical and profitable use of the small front area, but also improves the overall aesthetics of the interior.

Let's talk about the design options for the movable hanger.

Hallway with movable hanger

Previously, the hallway was also called the front: indeed, it is a kind of business card that gives the first impression of the owner, his lifestyle.

In a modern dwelling, the hallway, as a rule, is small in size - this is a room with an area of \u6b\u11bfrom 2 to XNUMX mXNUMX. Taking this into account, as well as the limited planes of the walls, which are free from doorways, it is proposed to use "two-layer" - moving wardrobes-hangers, in which the second one is hidden behind one volume.

For example, if a pantry is located in the opening of one of the walls of the hallway, its doors are replaced with a shield or an open locker for outerwear. Such a hanger, proposed by reader E. Tselishchev from Kirovograd, with hooks and a shelf for hats, easily moves to the side, freeing access to the pantry. At the same time, however, the entrance to the corridor or room may be temporarily blocked, but a lot of space is gained.

The sliding hanger is assembled from chipboards or boards connected into a rectangular box. To make the structure sufficiently rigid, metal corners are needed, with which the forming sidewalls are connected to the horizontal panels. The back wall - a sheet of plywood or fibreboard - serves as an additional structural element that enhances rigidity.

Due to what is the very possibility of shifting the hanger provided? Design options are allowed here.

For example, two or three roller wheels are attached to the top board of the box. They move in a guide - a steel box profile, which, in turn, is screwed to the bottom panel of the mezzanine. Another solution for installing the guide is not excluded: the profile is located between the walls. To do this, screws with wide caps are inserted at its ends - when installing the bracket, they rest against the walls. In order not to overload such a suspension, two or three rollers are also screwed from below, resting on a metal skid fixed on the floor surface. The front cheek of the rollers has a small flange - a protruding edge (for the thickness of the skid).

Inside, the hanger is equipped with the necessary fittings, drawers for storing home and outdoor shoes are mounted below. For soft indoor shoes - comfortable oilcloth pockets, hung to one of the walls.

The hanger box can be equipped with a light front panel - a door. After assembly, all surfaces are carefully treated with sandpaper, puttied and cleaned again. It remains to wash them and cover them with furniture varnish.

There is another way to attach the hanger: on several door hinges, with which the structure is hung directly on the wall. Depending on the features of the wall, the hinges are screwed to a wooden board or a metal profile (corner), which, in turn, is attached to the wall with the help of special dowels. Considering that in the upper part such a board experiences a "tearing off" force, it is necessary to fasten it with 4-6 dowels.

The hinged hanger opens easily like an additional door, providing free access to a built-in closet or pantry. Knowing the width of the pantry opening and the depth of the hanger box, we can calculate the required space remaining after opening the cabinet to "penetrate" the pantry.

Taking into account the various planning features of the hallways, it is possible to vary such solutions, starting from the proposed design options. In all cases, the room will benefit by receiving an "additional" area to accommodate other interior items.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Liquid nitrogen will help the development of space tourism 25.03.2001

A new way of fueling the reusable spacecraft (RSSC) may soon make space tourism quite affordable.

The secret of the new technology is to get liquid oxygen directly from the atmosphere. The proposed refueling system, called "Alchemist", will allow an aircraft comparable in size to a Boeing 777 aircraft to take off from a conventional airfield.

Since up to 90% of the launch weight of space shuttles is fuel, this method of refueling will lead to a significant reduction in launch costs.

Taking off the vehicle without oxygen on board also cuts the launch weight in half and makes launch safer, since contact between oxygen and hydrogen is eliminated. At an altitude of about 8 km, the apparatus patrols for 3 hours, liquefying the oxygen in the air.

Oxygen from the aircraft turbine enters two heat exchangers - in the wing and in the fuselage. After KKMI collects 340 tons of oxygen, more than doubling its weight, it already takes off like a rocket to the upper edge of the atmosphere. After that, the orbital compartment is separated, and the launch stage lands on Earth. At the end of the flight program, the orbital compartment also performs a landing.
