Bathroom Corner Cabinets Add Style and Space

Many bathrooms today are more than just a place to attend to our personal hygiene needs. These modern bathrooms are more salon than baths and in many cases are larger than the kitchens or family rooms that are in homes built thirty to forty years ago. However, even with the size of these modern day bath salons, there is one issue that they share with their counterparts of old. They also fall short when it comes to providing accessible storage of all the items necessary in our bathrooms. One of the ways to increase storage in a bathroom is to place a cabinet in an unused corner. For the most part, corners are just wasted space. By utilizing a corner cabinet, you can easily increase the storage area in your bathroom by as much as 25 to 50 percent.

Even with the size of bathrooms today, some do not have an empty corner space large enough to accommodate a large free standing cabinet. If this is the situation you find yourself in, then you still have a couple of options if you would like to utilize a corner for additional storage space. One option may be to attach a cabinet to the wall. A cabinet of this type would then utilize the corner space without the necessity of standing on floor space that may not be available. Another option may be to install a vertical cabinet on top of your existing bathroom vanity cabinets. These cabinets are usually twelve to eighteen inches wide, depending on your available space, and are placed against a wall that a vanity cabinet abuts. The vertical cabinet will then usually span the distance between the vanity cabinet top and the ceiling thus providing much needed additional storage space.

If you desire a bathroom corner cabinet, one thing you should consider prior to the installation is how well the moisture is expelled from the room. If there is presently no unusual moisture issue in your bathroom, then your options for adding a cabinet are unlimited. These cabinets are manufactured in many different styles and colors, as well as different materials. If you feel a wood cabinet would not be usable in your bathroom due to moisture issues, then you should consider a cabinet manufactured using moisture resistant materials. Luckily, there are many styles and colors available in these type cabinets and you should easily find one that will go well with your present decor.

No matter the style of cabinet you choose or the materials it is made of, a corner cabinet added to your bathroom will add additional accessible storage space that will add to your enjoyment of that huge salon style bath you have designed into your dream home.
