The wardrobe is an essential piece of furniture in the bedroom. Nowadays, many people choose to customize the wardrobe in order to make full use of the bedroom space and make it beautiful and environmentally friendly. Regarding the question of customizing the wardrobe back panel, many friends are hesitant to choose 9mm or 18mm. Most of the reasons for choosing 9mm are that the backplane of the customized wardrobe is not load-bearing. The main function is to prevent dust and moisture and stabilize the wardrobe. This thickness is enough; the reason for choosing 18mm is that it is thicker and more stable, and there is no need to worry about other aspects. Is this really the case?

There are three main thicknesses of customized wardrobe backplanes: 5mm, 9mm, and 18mm.

The advantages of 5mm are: increasing the depth of the wardrobe and low cost; the disadvantages are: easy to be damp, prone to breakage, and warping and cracking will occur after a long time. This is why most people do not choose 5mm.

The 9mm back panel is a commonly used thickness dimension for the back panel of a wardrobe. Its advantages are: the backboard occupies a small amount of space in the closet, which is beneficial to leave a gap between the backboard and the wall, so that the moisture-proof performance is better, and it can be disassembled and relocated many times. Moreover, the bearing capacity of the 9mm thick back panel can support the gravity of the top cabinet and each shelf to ensure the stability of the wardrobe.

The 18mm backplane is better than 9mm and 5mm in terms of moisture resistance and stability, but the depth of the wardrobe will increase. This problem needs to be considered, and the cost will also increase. In addition to installing hook products inside the wardrobe pattern, it is recommended to use 18mm thickness, and 9mm thickness backplane is sufficient in other cases. In terms of moisture resistance, the 18mm wardrobe back panel is not superior to other thicknesses due to the increase in its thickness, because moisture is slowly invaded through moisture instead of directly soaking in water.

After talking about the thickness of the back panel of the customized wardrobe, let's talk about the thickness of the cabinet of the customized wardrobe.

There are two commonly used thicknesses of wardrobe cabinets, 16mm and 18mm. Nowadays, most of them are 18mm thick. The main assembly line equipment is almost all set to 18mm. This thickness is more suitable for large custom furniture. If it is too thin, the support of the wardrobe is a problem, if it is too thick, it will appear bulky and bloated.
