Kitchen Storage Solutions Hide and Keep
Large or small, a kitchen has to function well for you to get the most
out of it, whether that means great meals, great entertaining or both.
Accessibility is the main ingredient. And one element that is globally
useful, whether you're a top chef or an ace sandwich maker, are storage
features that pull out or pull up.
Designing a high-performance kitchen requires an in-depth knowledge of your household's unique needs and habits. In a large kitchen, you don't want to have to run from one end to the other while trying to prepare a meal. In a small kitchen, unpiling and unstacking is cumbersome and irritating when you're trying to get things done. Pull-up or pullout components have the power to increase your kitchen's usability tremendously.
Rollout spice drawers are an effective, efficient use of space. Dress them up with unique hardware (and custom door fronts), as shown in this design, and you've got yourself what looks like beautiful built-in furniture.
Showcase your rollout vertical storage by accenting the drawer front with a contrasting material and different hardware.
Creating a pullout cooking utensil station for spoons, spatulas and oven mitts is an ingenious use of the rollout storage idea. A pegboard or perforated metal backing creates an easy (and affordable) backdrop for stress-free reachability.
Pullout drawers like this are also great for trash and recycling storage. Out of sight, out of mind (and smell).
Full-height rollout cabinets give you even more storage opportunities — and, in some cases, can serve as a pantry of sorts, if space is limited. Casters can provide additional support when needed.
