Hiding all the eye-sores to declutter the space is always a good idea, and in some rooms is even a must as decluttering expands the space visually. Today we’ll speak not of an eye-sore but still not very stylish piece that can spoil the interior but is a must in every home – a wi-fi router. How to hide it?
Hiding a wi-fi router most of us go traditional way: put it into a pantry, a walk-in closet or some other not very often visited space. But what if you have very thick wall and the signal is blocked or too weak? What if you have a very large home and the signal doesn’t come where needed? Then there are some more ways to keep your router in the same room without blocking the signal and spoiling the style of the space.
Storage Cabinets
A storage cabinet of any kind, your TV console or some other unit is a nice place for your wi-fi router. It can be built into the wall, hidden behind panels, wall-mounted or any other, and make sure its walls aren’t too thick not to block the signal. A very good and trendy idea is a cabinet with cane doors – they allow the signal very well and look stylish and up-to-date.
storage units hidden behind wall panels will hide your wi-fi router, too, and your room will be elegantly decluttered.
