How To Find The Perfect Bathroom Cabinet Set - All Climate Painting

Ready to remodel your bathroom and make it tailor made to your needs? There’s so much that you have to consider, but one of the things you’ll need to make your bathroom perfect is the right bathroom cabinets. These will give you all the storage you need, so it’s essential that you get it right.

Here’s how to find the perfect bathroom cabinet set for your needs.

Consider What You Already Have 

Firstly, take a look at the cabinets you have, and see if there’s anything that meets your needs already. Are they in the right place, for example? Do they have enough room for you to store everything in? Do they look good? Think about how your cabinets work now, and whether they suit your needs.

You can use your answers to decide what kind of bathroom cabinets you need. For example, if they fit all your belongings but are tired and worn out, then you can replace them with cabinets of a similar size and shape. If they’re great but in the wrong spot, then you can install something similar in the right place. If the cabinets give you everything you need but are looking dated, you have the option of painting them, rather than replacing them.

Have A Budget In Mind 

Whether you’re replacing your cabinets or repainting them, you’ll need to have a budget for this. You’ll have a budget for the overall bathroom remodel, but make sure you’re itemizing everything you need. The amount you have to spend on cabinets will depend on other factors.

For example, if you need to move plumbing to fit in new fixtures, then you’ll have less to spend on cabinets. If you are only changing out the décor, then you’ve got more to play with. With a budget, you can then start shopping around.

Pick Out A Style That’s Right For You

Now you’re all set to start looking around at cabinets that suit you. There are so many options out there right now, you’re going to find something that’s to your tastes.

Here are a few examples:

Traditional: These cabinets are very popular, and you can often find them in Colonial or American styles. These feature straight edges and embedded shapes, making them a very easy look to style in a lot of bathrooms.

Art Deco: This style, which was popular in the early 20th century, is having a comeback right now. You’ll see cabinets that use geometric shapes and patterns, and they often come in brass, wood, or metal.

New England: If you’re going for a coastal feel in your bathroom, then these will be the cabinets for you. They are often painted light blue and white, and sometimes have rustic details like wood paneling.

Vintage: Here’s another style that’s having a moment right now. All vintage cabinets are different, but they usually harken back to a moment in history, making them feel timeless.

Industrial: An industrial cabinet will be one that’s made of metals, such as copper, tin and iron. While they will have a factory look, they can still be very attractive.

Cottage: These will have a rural feel to them, which is just what you should go for if you’re looking to create a cottage look in your bathroom. 

Shaker: Here’s another classic style you will have seen before. They have flat edges and rectangular or square doors, giving them a clean look. 

Picking The Placement Of Your Cabinets

Now you’ve picked the style, you need to work out how they will fit into your bathroom as a whole. How will you get them to fit in the space you have? There are four different options when it comes to cabinets: wall mounted, freestanding, vanity and tall cabinets.

Here’s how to decide which one is right for you.

Wall mounted: As the name implies, these cabinets will be attached to the wall. These are a good option for those with smaller bathrooms, as they can be attached over toilets and doors, as needed. That way, you get all the storage you need without sacrificing wall space. They’re also good for family bathrooms, as you can place items out of the reach of children in them.

Freestanding: These are a good option for those that want storage at a lower level. They contain drawers and cabinet space, so there’s lots of storage room. Some will sit flush to the floor, while others will have legs that give them extra height.

Tall: These cabinets are slimline versions of regular cabinets, and so make the most of any space you have. They’re a good option for storing bottles and other essentials that need a home in your bathroom.

Vanity: Finally, there’s the vanity option. This is a cabinet that combines a basin with storage space, keeping everything together. They’re highly popular as you can keep everything to hand when you’re getting ready for the day.

Finish With The Right Handles 

Finally, you’ll need to think about the handles that you use on your bathroom cabinets. These are the finishing touch, and you’ll want them to work with the décor you’ve used in the newly renovated room. For example, if you’ve used a more traditional looking cabinet, then you’ll want traditional looking handles to match.

As you’re putting in brand new cabinets, you’ll also have the option to add them in a way that suits you. You can have them placed either for left or right handed use, whichever works best for you. You’ll also have the option to go with either handles or knobs, but this is very much a personal choice, so go with what you think feels best.

Conclusion

Now you know how to go and find the best bathroom cabinet set for you. It’s all about the space you have, and how you want to use it. If you know this, you’ll be able to get cabinets that offer you plenty of storage and style, no matter how small your bathroom is.
