Cabinets are not restricted to kitchen use. In fact, cabinetry can be useful all over your home. Below are just some of the spaces where adding cabinetry can do your family and your clutter some good.
Mudroom
A mudroom is an obvious area for cabinet storage. Wet coats and muddy boots all need to go somewhere. The climate you live in and the lifestyle you enjoy will probably help in determining how much storage you need and which materials to choose. Those with very active lifestyles may want to consider more durable materials in this space.
Bathroom
Bathrooms are notorious for being short on storage. Built-in cabinets are a great way to add more storage and maintain a consistent aesthetic throughout the room. Upper cabinets are also a nice feature if your bathroom is intended to stay suitable for someone aging in place. Keeping storage conveniently at shoulder level means no bending to look under sinks.
Laundry Room
A laundry room or utility room can quickly become a jumbled storage area without a system of organization and storage. One of the great things about using cabinetry to create such systems is that it can almost always be tailor-fit to your needs. In these types of rooms, it is important for everything to have its place and cabinetry can hide it all behind closed doors.
Home Office
One place that may not be so obvious for cabinets is the home office. However, ample (and often secure) storage in this area is something we have all come to learn to be very useful. And while working from home can, at times, be chaotic, adding built-ins will help you to contain the clutter elegantly.
So, think outside the box when it comes to where you can use cabinetry in your home. If you want an expert opinion, contact the kitchen and bath designers at your local Fairview Millwork and Kitchens for samples and pricing.
