7 useful ideas for making a cabinet on the balcony yourself with video tutorials.

Hinged two-section made of MDF

Let’s start the excursion with a detailed professional project, which takes into account all the nuances. A specialist in furniture production explains in a reasoned manner why it is more profitable to use the entire niche from floor to ceiling, why it is necessary to leave technological gaps near cold walls, how to arrange shelves and screw on hinges so that the cabinet is convenient to use. Solid stylish facades will allow you to enjoy the results of your work.

After viewing this MK, it becomes clear that if you have basic skills of a home craftsman, it is not necessary to hire professionals. You just need to take the job seriously and buy quality materials.

Three-section with panel doors

Next in line is another carefully thought-out project of a balcony cabinet with ready-made facades, this time with wooden panel doors from Leroy Merlin. But it is not only the attractive design and neat execution that are of interest.

The three-part, two-level design itself will be useful to anyone who has the same way of opening a window and wants to combine utilitarian and decorative functions in one product. How it looks assembled and painted, you can find out from the second part of the video.

On the rounded open shelves adjacent to the window and illuminated by the warm rays of the sun, light-loving houseplants will feel great and look great.

Inexpensive PVC compartment

Polyvinyl chloride slats are often an affordable and attractive alternative to wooden paneling when lining the walls and ceiling on the balcony, so why not use the same material to arrange the wardrobe? This is what the author of the following video decided and bought everything he needed to implement his simple project for about 700 rubles. The work took a few days, and the result was wonderful.

The compartment principle of opening the cabinet is ideal for tight spaces, where hinged doors will rest against walls or nearby objects and narrow access to the storage.

Frame made of clapboard

If your balcony is covered with wooden planks with a tongue and groove connection, it is logical to choose them for building a cabinet that will blend into the interior. In the presented MK, the girl describes step by step the process of making the frame, assembling the walls and shelves, lists the necessary tools and fasteners, so that even a beginner can handle the task. The dimensions are optimal – the entire side niche.

I would like to add: an unheated balcony has a special microclimate, so it is better to keep the lining there for 3 days in the open and subject it to protective and decorative treatment one by one before laying, because the slats can change shape.

Wide on a roller shutter

The author of the following video lives in a private house with a balcony of a complex configuration. The family has a garden plot at their disposal, and the harvest is mainly used for winter preparations. Since only a shallow niche in the wall could be allocated for storage, it was decided to equip it with narrow shelves and a lifting roller shutter like a garage or store door. A cabinet like this can hold a lot of jars of homemade preserves.

You can contact any company specializing in the manufacture of double-glazed windows and related products for roller shutters.

Chipboard sofa cabinet

If you want to use your balcony not only for storing things, but also for relaxing, combine business with pleasure, as the author of the following project suggests. In the side niche, which the previous speakers gave over entirely to storage, the young man installed a small soft sofa with a drawer under the seat. He plans to keep his work tools there.

Such a design will require a minimum of materials and costs. Owners who have recently dismantled unnecessary furniture made of chipboard or fiberboard will not have to buy boards in the store.

Wooden in rustic style

We will complete the selection with a spectacular low cabinet made of natural wood with airy mesh doors. It does not look like a thing hastily knocked together by hand from scraps, but if you often make furniture, this is how it will turn out.

The rustic chic of the product is given by oil and wax impregnation. With the help of glaze or stain it is easy to get an unusual noble shade of wood.

Let this collection of ideas inspire you to tidy up your balcony and start spending time there with joy, and not with annoyance because of the eternal chaos and disorganization!
