Experts advise to avoid custom wardrobe

In the process of customizing the closet, you may encounter a lot of mystery problems of “Zhang2 Buddhist monk is not at ease”. Is your illusion? Is it business fraud or is it right? Let us unblock their mystery!

Small-sized heads of households are most often exposed to this annoyance. After much communication with the designer, Mr. Gao's custom wardrobe was finalized at 6,200 yuan. Knowing that the closet is mostly measured by meters, in order to seek more provinces, Mr. Gao began to plan to reduce the use of plates, who knows to reduce the plate, but the final cost has become 6,500 yuan. Why?

This is mainly due to "standard pricing" and "non-standard pricing." In general, the width of the plate is limited, 1.2 meters, 1.8 meters is a common size. In addition to the market's mainstream demand, the general wardrobe company's standard pricing also tries to control the highest utilization rate of the board. Generally, the “standard pricing” of the same wardrobe is also available in several models and sizes. However, non-standard pricing such as the depth of the wardrobe is increased from the standard 60 cm to 80 cm, so that custom materials need to be recut. In particular, when you need to do some modeling, you need to invest more process and labor costs.

Generally, "non-standard pricing" is more than 100 yuan higher than the "standard valuation" plate quotation. If you do not pay attention to this difference, you may repeat Mr. Gao's mistakes.

Why do custom wardrobes often overspend?

Custom closet industry is generally quoted by meters, especially in promotional nodes, 188 yuan / square meter, 288 yuan / square meter price is really attractive. The rookie always dreams of winning a custom wardrobe at a low price.

The main reason is that this quotation is mostly quoted on the material of the cabinet, not including the price of the cabinet door and accessories. If it is calculated according to the projected area, that is, the length and breadth of the wardrobe is calculated by multiplying, the partitions and space layout inside the wardrobe are generally simple, and the low price seems to be more real. If calculated according to the actual area, in addition to the cabinet door to take up a large amount of expenditure, the selection of internal space accessories also need to increase costs.

Why are the doors expensive?

Chen ** went to the custom shop to consult the price and encountered this problem. The quotation of the cabinet is generally 200-300 yuan/square meter, but the cabinet door price is nearly 1,000 yuan. Since the same plate is generally used, why is the price so different?

In fact, this is also a way for merchants to make money. When the method of calculation according to the square meter is applied to the door, the issue of door frame borders must also be considered. Some brands use better aluminum alloy materials, rails and pulleys, and the price is still calculated according to the door area calculation method, which means that the cost of hardware needs to be included. The higher the quality, the higher the price. But there is also some hidden nature. There are also some brands that use hardware and panel pricing alone. Such prices are transparent.

Why does a solid wood custom wardrobe less?

Speaking of plates, many people will worry about environmental issues. But only after walking around the market will know that most of the brand is still dominated by the plate, making little of the wood, even if there is no main push. What are the reasons?

In addition to the relatively high cost of solid wood wardrobe (usually from 400 yuan, or even a thousand dollars), but also because of wood manufacturing wardrobe there are various technical problems. The entire wardrobe industry is not as mature as the panel in the technology of solid wood custom closets. According to well-known dealers, although solid wood custom wardrobes are high-grade, “cracking is a normal thing”. Because solid wood itself has a certain amount of moisture, it is technically difficult to achieve complete drying. In addition, the surface of solid wood is generally painted, and its environmental performance is not necessarily the best.
