Function of Your Kitchen Cabinets

We spend a lot of time promoting the cabinet remodeling idea because it allows our customers to transform their kitchens while saving tons of money and keeping their storage space free of unnecessary waste. However, it is also important to note that we can completely overhaul the interior of your cabinets when rearranging them. So if you’re looking to take your kitchen cabinetry to a whole new level, be sure to turn to expert cabinet remodeling contractors for help.

The ultimate kitchen design puts function and flows first. The same applies to cabin design, including interiors. Empty cabinet space is a wasted storage opportunity. Leverage your intuitive knowledge of “what goes where” – and “what goes where” to design custom cabin interiors that keep everything easy, accessible, and within easy reach.

Also, the more we optimize the cabinet and drawer interiors, the easier it is to remove a cabinet from here or replace it with a shelf there, opening up the kitchen space. Here are some things to keep in mind along the way.

Remodel your kitchen with the big picture in mind

When homeowners begin a kitchen remodel, they often find themselves obsessively focused on things that don’t really impact the big picture as much as they think. So step away from the micro view for a moment and evaluate your kitchen from a big-picture perspective. How much will your interior cabinets be seen or inspected?

Instead of focusing excessively on the colors or finishes of interior cabinetry innovations, keep an eye on the target that makes the most sense for cabinet and drawer use. Once all your utensils, appliances, and crockery are in place, the interiors will be barely noticeable.

Upgrade your cabinets with additional storage

If you’re re-facing, the cabinets are ten years old or older, and cabinet interiors have come a long way since then. Today, storage solutions abound. From pull-out shelves to custom pots, pans, and dish racks, newly installed storage solutions will automatically enhance the look of your cabinets when open.

Click Here to get an idea of some of the mix-and-match cabinet storage solutions available. You’ll love how they keep everything organized so there’s no room for “drawer clutter”. Using every inch of your interior cabinets can double the storage capacity.

Even reworked cabinets can get a functional upgrade, from cabinet doors to drawers. Sliding pots and pans towards you or climbing into the cabinet to access large pots and lids are game-changing. The tall drawer solution is not only super functional (and quieter) but also updates the aesthetic design of your remodeled kitchen.

Reconfigure your cabinets for a new look

Reconfiguring cabinet interiors allows you to completely eliminate some of your kitchen cabinets. For example, you may find that there is now a breakfast nook, a suitable corner area for open shelves.

Do you have some free time and craftsmanship? You can get creative with a DIY solution, like covering the backs of your cabinets with decorative self-adhesive patterns. This is particularly attractive when used in conjunction with glass cabinets. This can create a unique and stylish design element.

When it comes to kitchen cabinets, there is a lot to explore and with it, you can find many design options. These may differ for each style and size. We also offer custom kitchen cabinets that you can customize according to your needs.

What Makes Our Wall Cabinets Different?

Our wall mounted kitchen cabinets are innovative. First of all, they look more stylish than normal kitchen cabinets. Moreover, they offer quite a large storage space from them.

As a result, you will have cabinets that are perfect for your kitchen and offer you great functionality and uninterrupted cooking.

In addition, thanks to the unrivaled strength and durability of our kitchen cabinets, even the busiest households can meet the demands of our kitchen cabinets. Whatever your lifestyle demands, you can be sure that your kitchen cabinet will last for years.

Best Wall Cabinets Ideas

Wall cabinets reflect more contemporary designs. Wall cabinets are in trend these days because of the ultimate storage option they offer you. Check out the best ideas for wall cabinets:

Standard Wall Cabinets

The kitchen has 18 inches of clearance from the counters where standard wall cabinets are placed. These wall cabinets are closed to the ceiling with a kind of crown molding.

However, there are more wall cabinet solutions that can add elegance and occasional functionality to your Kitchen Designs.

Wall Cabinets with Elevator

Lift-up wall cabinets are an easy alternative to swing-door cabinets. The doors of the lift wall cabinet usually have the same width and height as regular wall cabinets but are lifted up as opposed to having side hinges.

This style of door provides an alternative method of entry to the interior of the wall cabinet. When working in the kitchen, doors can be opened and left open to prevent a revolving door from interfering.

In addition, our kitchen cabinets can meet the demands of even the busiest households thanks to their unrivaled strength and durability.

Floating Wall Cabinets

Movable wall cabinets can create a different look in your kitchen designs. Since these wall cabinets are shorter than “standard” wall cabinets, they naturally create a horizontal line in the space.

Compatible with folding and hinged cabinet doors. Retractable doors have the advantage of ensuring that the overhead clearance doors do not hit the ceiling when they open.

Given that none of the shelves are out of reach of your customer and all the contents are easily accessible, this type of wall cabinet can be quite practical.

Solid Wall Wall Cabinets

Solid wall cabinets are a great option. If you plan to add these cabinets, it is suitable for kitchens with high ceilings.

Proper proportion is essential for glass wall cabinets to look beautiful. A kitchen design can become seriously unbalanced if glass door dimensions are not balanced.

Pantry Depth Wall Cabinets

You can overcome a kitchen with high ceilings by using deep cabinets.
These deep cabinets are an excellent architectural choice when positioned as a bridge between tall cabinets. The appeal of this application is enhanced when specified on a different surface than typical wall cabinets.

Flip-up & Hinged Wall Cabinet Combination

This is one of the creative and unique approaches to adding wall cabinets to your home kitchen.

If you want to add some interest to your kitchen, make a combination of swivel and hinged door cabinets in a single stack. This kind of combination is perfect for both modern and classic decoration.

Profile Wall Cabinets

In a kitchen, breaking the monotony of multiple solid doors with a decorative element like wooden slats can help.

Due to the variety of possibilities on the market, there are mullion door models for almost any interior design.

Countertop Wall Cabinets

Countertop wall cabinets are designed to give your kitchen an extremely practical and aesthetic appearance. One of the interesting aspects of these cabinets is that they meet the Universal Design criteria. By Universal Design we mean that they can be placed in any kitchen style. Wall cabinets lowered to the countertop have a cottage look that can add interest to your kitchen designs.

Kitchen Remodeling

Homeowners are often caught off guard when they learn just how many moving parts and decisions there are when it comes to kitchen remodeling. It can feel endlessly overwhelming, and the process of making all those choices isn’t always fun, especially when it comes to how and where to allocate money to different parts of your investment.

You’re probably wondering, where can I save money on my remodel? Which parts should I spend more on? These nuances can make or break a kitchen remodel because, at the end of the day, the highest priority is ensuring you get the kitchen you’ve been dreaming up.

Still, these can be tough questions to answer. Don’t worry, you don’t have to figure all of this out on your own. We’re here to guide you so that the decisions you make for your kitchen remodel reflect exactly what you want within the budget you’ve created for your unique situation. So, the answer to the question “Where should I splurge v. save in my kitchen remodel?” can best be answered like this: it depends on what’s important to you. Let’s jump right in!

How do I know where to spend more?

Deciding where to invest a higher dollar amount in certain aspects of your remodel depends on what’s most important to you and your family. A common misconception is that you must spend a lot more to get the longevity and high quality you desire. This may be true in certain scenarios when purchasing a product, but your kitchen renovation doesn’t necessarily follow the same rules.

First, think about how you use your kitchen on a day-to-day basis. Which aspects of your current kitchen are the most frustrating for you? What has been on your wish list since you began thinking about remodeling your space? Let’s take a look at a few examples of where you might spend more (or less) in different areas of your kitchen remodel.

Cabinet

There are multiple solutions for this essential part of your renovation, too. You can opt to reface, completely replace, paint, refinish them, or replace only the doors and drawer fronts.

Bear in mind, if you choose any option other than cabinet replacement, the footprint of your kitchen will not be changeable. Give some thought to whether or not you are satisfied with the current layout of your space when you choose one of the less disruptive, more budget-friendly options. With any of these options, there are thousands of styles, colors, designs, and accessories to choose from to make your kitchen remodel feel fresh and new.

Another potential aspect of a project that could affect your budget is this: say you planned your budget for custom-built cabinets and stone countertops that you really wanted. You may decide that although you didn’t have a backsplash before, you fell in love with a beautiful white tile backsplash. Now, you want the same thing in your space. You still have some of your investment to spare, but not a ton. Backsplash options range in price by the type of material, the intricacy of the design, and the amount of real estate up your wall that you want to cover with the material. There are many ways to get a high-end look at a reasonable price.

Countertops

Countertops have some of the widest-ranging costs, as it is dependent on the type of surface you choose. For example, in some cases, quartz might be several times the cost of a beautiful, durable laminate option.

If you desire the look of a high-end stone countertop but are not comfortable with the price tag that goes along with it, be sure to ask about other options that will still give you what you want aesthetically without sacrificing the quality.

HPL (High-Pressure Laminate) countertops are now, like most composite materials, state-of-the-art from both an aesthetic and durability standpoint. These surfaces have evolved over the years and are often indistinguishable in appearance from real stone. This type of countertop, with proper care, can last for decades and for a fraction of the cost of stone. And the good news is if you ultimately still want granite or quartz down the road, but don’t have it in the budget right now, laminate or solid surface (Corian) countertops will provide you with a reliable, designer look until you’re ready for stone.

Whether or not to splurge on countertops, like every decision, is simply a matter of personal preference and budget. If you are unwavering in your desire for a stone countertop, that, of course, is completely up to you and it is simply a matter of planning that into your budget!
