Bathroom Cabinets - Making the Most of Your Bathroom Space

Modern bathroom furniture is a break from traditional furniture settings, that has provided flexibility and style to bathroom furnishings and given them a comfortable look. Rather than just the usual sink and toilet, bathroom cabinets are now an essential part of bathroom furniture that mirror the urban lifestyle and the modern bathroom settings, especially when there is little room or time for constant changes.

  • The larger the bathroom, the more space you have for bathroom furniture and cabinets for storage. Multi-shelved bathroom cabinets provide ample storage, ranging from clothing to books, cosmetics to medicines, electronic equipment, and telephone/intercom system.
  • Installing bathroom cabinets provides a balance in storage capacity in your home. Instead of stuffing things or leaving them around to cause clutter, keep them neatly arranged in the cabinets.
  • For faulty areas on walls or floor on temporary settings, bathroom cabinets can be used to hide defects if you do not wish to renovate.

Bathroom cabinets are an integral part of bathroom furniture as they help you store more in lesser space and give you a neat and tidy bathroom.

Types of Bathroom Cabinets

  • Bathroom vanity units come with a vanity sink that has a storage area in form of cabinets below the sink - these cabinets come with both the single and double vanity sets; a variation to this is a console bathroom vanity that is at once decorative and offers saving space.
  • A new type of bathroom cabinets is freestanding cabinets on trolley wheels to make them movable and lightweight. These cabinets come with drawers and/or shelves and they can be placed in any bathroom anywhere.
  • Also available are bathroom cabinets with mirror that serve the dual purpose of storage with mirrors. The cabinet lends support to the mirror thus providing double service in a limited space.
  • Corner cabinets are specifically designed for corners of the bathroom; the triangular shaped shelves are provided for storing goods and supplies while serving the decorative purpose at the same time.
  • Linen basket cabinets are used to store linen; this type of cabinet has a metal basket affixed inside that is pulled outwards.
  • Medicine cabinets serve the purpose of storing medicines and cosmetics. The doors of these cabinets are usually covered with a mirror.
  • Bathroom cabinets are specially designed to provide storage space for children’s items such as bath toys. Safe and easily accessible, these child friendly bathroom cabinets are low in height with open shelves, available in a bright range of colors. As a safety precaution, ensure that the cabinets can be affixed on the floor or wall as freestanding bathroom cabinets are in danger of toppling on the child.

Variety in Bathroom Cabinets

Bathroom cabinets are available in a variety of styles and designs as they are designed keeping in mind the customers' demand. This makes it easier for you to make a purchase and select bathroom cabinets that suit your needs and match your bathroom décor too.

  • Also very popular is the retro-modern bathroom furniture. It is a blend of 50’s furnishings complementing the modern, such as wooden bathroom cabinets with glass and metal.
  • Ultra modern bathroom cabinets are also very ‘in’ that are a rebellion against old furniture designs. Available in funky styles, they specialize in unusual and futuristic shapes in metal, glass, luminous and fluorescent colors.
  • Cabinet doors can be either sliding with aluminium and steel lining for support or closed doors that swing outwards or top hanging ones.
  • Revolving bathroom cabinets are also ideal for small bathrooms. These cabinets are set on a panel that rotates with a slight push of the hand, and can have two sides or more.
