Bathrooms are the one room in the house that is key to getting right when it comes to redesigning. Not only because it is an expensive thing to do but because it is one of the most used rooms in the house, so making sure that it is not only practical but also stylish, takes a bit of time and thought.
Whether you have a large bathroom or are working with a small space like we are, making sure you utilise the space you have will be key in making it work for you and your family.
When it comes to storage in your bathroom, there are a number of options that you can now get that vary from wall cabinets, under sink storage and tall cabinets. Each one works for so many bathrooms but some are better than others.
Tall cabinets are starting to become a go-to choice with many, they are not only great for space saving as you go up and not out but they also look aesthetically great in so many bathrooms. If you are considering a tall cabinet in your bathroom but are unsure, we are looking at why they work well for all bathroom spaces.
Maximizing Storage Space
Unlike traditional units or under sink units, tall cabinets make use of the vertical space in the bathroom, which is traditionally not often used. Unlike spaces such as bedrooms and kitchens, where we make the most of the floor-to-ceiling space when it comes to bathrooms we tend to stick to the minimal approach and not take up wall space.
However, where in bathrooms, floor space is limited this is actually a clever way to make the most of the space and provide yourself with lots of storage.
Although many tall cabinets are slim, they are perfect for bathroom storage. With many units having multiple shelves and compartments, you are able to pop things such as toiletries, cleaning supplies and bathroom essentials, then close the door and give your bathroom a more decluttered space, which in turn makes your room feel smaller.
Functional Benefits
Many tall cabinets can be designed with ergonomics in mind, making it easier to access items without bending or stretching too much. Features like pull-out shelves and soft-close doors add to the convenience but are also more practical.
Not only this, but storing cleaning products out of the reach of children and pets, makes your bathroom space, that little bit safer for little people and the four-legged family members.
Aesthetic Appeal
I am a huge fan of tall cabinets, especially when they are in white. They can create a sleek, cohesive look in the bathroom whilst offering a practical use too.

Whether you are looking for a custom-made design to fit that awkward space or something with a bit of flair to match your personality, the combination of practicality and design marry up perfectly. Another great thing about a tall cabinet is they can be used to hide plumbing or even quirky house features from your older houses.
With a variety of finishes, it will all be down to you to find the perfect match. Whether you prefer a modern, minimalist design or a more traditional look, tall cabinets can be customized to fit your aesthetic.
It is worth remembering that with cabinets and long-term features of a room, it is always worth investing in high-quality items as they will last and provide enduring functionality and style.
Practical Tips for Incorporating Tall Cabinets
If you are considering getting a tall cabinet in your bathroom, there is as few things to think about to ensure you get that perfect fit.
When if comes to choosing the cabinet, make sure you take accurate measurements of your bathroom space to enable you to choose cabinets that fit perfectly without overwhelming the room. One of the key features of the tall cabinet as opposed to the low traditional cabinets is they take up less space and give the feeling of making your room feel bigger.
Think about where it may work best for you and depending on your bathroom, this may vary. For some people, they prefer it to be near the sink so they can store toiletries, but this may not be practical for you. A good location is always in the corner of the room as it will allow it to be securely fitted to the wall.
If you have the option to, why not consider integrating some lighting either inside the cabinet or just over to allow you good lighting when using but also making it a little more of a feature in the room?
Whether your choose to go for an off-the-shelf tall cabinet or a custom-made one, it is clear to see why they are becoming so popular. With a great amount of storage, aesthetics, and functionality, thoughtfully incorporating tall cabinets into your bathroom, you can create a more organized, stylish, and efficient space that meets all your needs.
