A sliding cupboard design is not just contemporary and cool to look at, it serves the purpose of being space-efficient. Most urban homes don’t have the luxury of space to accommodate swing-door or hinged wardrobes (for designs, go here). If you’re looking for space-saving storage solutions, sliding wardrobe designs should be on your list.
Also, modern sliding wardrobe designs come with an array of shutter options for you to choose from — membrane, laminate, PU and acrylic, mirrored, plain, frosted and lacquered glass. Take a look at some of our sliding almirah designs for bedroom interiors and pick your favourite!

Other Colours and Finishes for Sliding Door Wardrobe Designs
Colours can breathe life into your bedrooms and since wardrobes occupy a big part of your space, you can use them to get the colour palette that you want. The colours can be chosen in most of the materials available for sliding cupboard designs. Since the finishes of these materials can determine if the colours are highlighted or subdued in your room, you must choose them with some deliberation. Check some of them out here:
Glossy Laminates
If you want to increase the brightness in your room and you are looking for an economical way to do so, then using glossy laminates is your solution. The variety in colours available for laminates is vast compared to other materials.
If you’re one for subtle interiors with just a pop of colour, this sliding cupboard design will appeal to you. It boasts of great storage while being stylish. Add yellow accents around the room to really make it pop!
Textured Colour Laminates
When you want the colours in your room to reflect more luxury, try textured laminates. They add drama to your interiors and make your taste in design seem unique.
Matte-Finish Laminates
Some of you may not be a big fan of shiny surfaces and matte-finish sliding cupboard designs might be more to your liking. If that is the case, we suggest you get matte-finish laminates for your room to evoke luxury.
Mirror Panels for Sliding Wardrobe Designs
Full-sized mirrors in the bedroom are not only appealing, they are also practical and handy while dressing. Mirror-panelled sliding doors are a boon to compact bedrooms in such cases. We suggest you consider mirror panels along with coloured laminates when you’re looking for sliding cupboard designs for your bedroom.
Lacquered Glass-Finish Sliding Cupboard Designs
Lacquered glass increases the visual appeal of your bedroom. Although they are not easy to break, you must be careful with the large panels. Apart from this, they are also moisture- and heat-resistant and hence quite durable.
PU-Finished Sliding Wardrobe Design
PU paints have high resistance to abrasions, cuts and tears. PU can seal the inner material against all chemicals and hence is quite durable. It is expensive to get but yields the best results in your interiors. So if you can, go for a PU-finished sliding cupboard design.
Sizes of Sliding Door Wardrobe Designs
Although the size of your room will dictate your cupboard’s size, you should know that there is no rule on the number of doors you get for your wardrobe. There are wardrobes that have six doors as well.

Fun Sliding Cupboard Designs for Kids’ Rooms with Membrane Finish
When it comes to kids’ bedrooms, it is crucial to play around with colours and keep the vibe of the room fun and experimental. So go ahead with crazy colours and designs. What you should know is that laminates aren’t scratch-resistant and will start to look old soon in kids’ bedrooms.
There is on other wardrobe finish that is durable in cases of such rough use—sliding cupboard designs with a membrane finish. The membrane film is scratch-resistant and can be cleaned with mild detergent unlike laminates. It is a little expensive compared to laminates but is much more durable, hence more cost-effective than laminates.
