Panel Left Close

This icon represents closing and hiding functionality for left navigation panels in application interfaces and workspace configurations. Featuring a leftward-pointing chevron within a left-divided container, this symbol indicates the action to collapse sidebar navigation, hide tool palettes, and minimize left sections to maximize content viewing space and reduce interface complexity.

Users encounter this icon in code editors like VS Code and Atom when collapsing file explorers and extension panels to focus on coding workflows without navigation distractions. Content management systems including WordPress and Drupal implement it for hiding admin sidebar menus, while productivity platforms such as Slack and Microsoft Teams display it for minimizing channel lists and workspace navigation panels.

From a workspace optimization perspective, the close left panel functionality communicates more than simple space management - it specifically indicates distraction reduction, content focus enhancement, and the flexible interface customization that supports immersive work sessions. This toggle capability helps users balance navigation accessibility with content prioritization based on their current task requirements.

Panel Left Close is one of 1,655 icons in Lucide, made by Lucide Contributors and released under ISC. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 grid with a 2 stroke.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds PanelLeftCloseIcon to components/icons/lucide-panel-left-close.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed PanelLeftCloseIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Yes, if your project has lucide-react: Panel Left Close is `PanelLeftCloseIcon` there, used as <PanelLeftCloseIcon />. The shadcn.io MCP server answers with that import when it finds the package. Without it, copy the icon from here.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Panel Left Close icon, or any of 1,655 Lucide icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 24 × 24 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation, and its stroke.

Panel Left Close is a line icon drawn with a stroke width of 2. Change it in Customize before you copy, or pass strokeWidth to the installed component when all of its strokes share one width.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Panel Left Close", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. PanelLeftCloseIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <PanelLeftCloseIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes. ISC allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: ISC only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Lucide, Lucide Contributors and the license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
