Fashion Accessory Internal Door Storage Cavity

Abstract

A storage device mounted within a door frame is disclosed for storage and organization of fashion accessories or similar articles. The device comprises a door having an internal cutout, wherein an internal cavity is provided for storage of articles in a condensed space, which can be accessed via a second, cutout door. A full length mirror is mounted to the interior of the second door along with peg board to allow attachment of accessory hooks for hanging items.

The device may be provided within the interior of a larger door, or as a door insert adapted to be incorporated into an existing door.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 464,451 filed on Mar. 4, 2011, entitled “The Fashion Accessory Store Door.”BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to closets and storage areas that may be mounted and located in disguised or hidden locations. More specifically, the present invention pertains to a storage compartment that is housed within an interior door.[0004]Prior to this invention there have been many varieties of doors as well as various cabinet structures.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0014]In view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known types of door closets now present in the prior art, the present invention provides a new means of storage and organization while minimizing utilized floor space to accomplish these goals.

Problems solved by technology

These devices, however, are not optimally structured to maximize the amount of storage for the space provided, nor do they provide an improved means of organizing fashion accessories or similar articles.

They similarly do not allow for viewing of articles within the storage space itself prior to removal thereof.

The Matselboba device does not extend rearwardly from the closet door, which significantly limits storage space, while its door entry is a door gate that opens using two doors that spread apart to gain access to the hollow interior.

The door closet and closet box both have handles that are similar to that provided in the Matselboba device, which are less than ideal given the additional space that the handles take up within the room.

The storage space is located only against the back wall of the storage container, which does not maximize the space within the storage container.

The devices disclosed in the prior art do not address the need for maximizing the storage space that is available through a storage space within the hollow of a door.
