Effectively Adding Storage Space With Kitchen Cabinetry

Cabinets Kitchen Remodeling Jan 28

From pots and pans to plates, bowls, silverware, glasses and more, there are many items that must be stored in a kitchen. Ideally, these items will be stored in a manner so that they are easy to access and so that the cabinetry is not cluttered and chaotic. It can save you time, energy and stress to have a well-designed kitchen storage system. If you are preparing to remodel your kitchen, you may be focused on picking out the right style and color of kitchen cabinetry in Royal Oak MI, but you also need to give thought to the storage capabilities of the kitchen features that you select.

The Dimensions of the Cabinetry

If your current kitchen is lacking storage space, one way to add more storage space is to create a cabinetry design that utilizes extra space for the cabinets and drawers. This may include adding cabinetry that is a few inches taller and deeper, and this is particularly beneficial for the upper cabinets. Using deep drawers as well as shallow drawers for different purposes is another idea to consider. The amount of space that you need can be determined ahead of time, paying attention to the size of the largest and smallest features that you need to store in your space.

The Layout of the Kitchen

The best custom kitchen design is one that is designed specifically for your needs. This means that you will give everything that you need store in the kitchen a home. All cabinets, drawers and other features will have a specific purpose, and even shelving will be the right height for all of the items that you need to store in the space. Keep in mind that something as simple as adding an island or an outcropping for a bar-style dining area can give you ample extra cabinet space that you do not currently have.

Special Storage Features

While it is important to have enough space for all of your belongings, it is also important to have the right storage features inside the cabinets and drawers. This may include a lazy susan for your spices, a pullout feature for your pots and pans, a rack for your cookie or baking sheets, a divider for your silverware and more. These are among the most common features found in today's cabinetry storage systems, but there are other options available based on your needs. Take time to analyze your current storage needs and to learn more about some of the innovative storage ideas to determine which ones you want to incorporate into your new kitchen.

Remodeling a kitchen gives you the incredible opportunity to transform your kitchen with amazing results. Your current kitchen may feel cramped and cluttered, and this is not a living experience that you want to continue. One idea is to schedule a consultation with a designer for kitchen cabinetry in Royal Oak MI, and you can begin exploring these and other creative ideas for adding more functional space to your newly remodeled kitchen.

Reviews

From start to finish Kurtis was a great company to work with. From the initial contact and design concept with Gregory Holster to the cabinet drop off team, the install team led by project manager Jeff Tuomi and the countertop company, the project was on time and all work was performed beyond expectations. This was greatly appreciated seeing as it was completed on December 23. All the people involved were professional and did an excellent job.

Shanna was our project consultant. Picking out cabinets along with counters can be somewhat overwhelming but her knowledge & experience helped us make the right decisions. Dylan & Juwan unloaded truck & Dylan check off ship ticket to make sure all boxes were accounted for. Courteous & pleasant to talk to…nice job of stacking everything neatly in our garage. We couldn't be more pleased with the service & so happy with our kitchen

We recently worked with Lauren on cabinetry for a master bathroom renovation. She was great to work on the design and selections. Lauren was efficient and responsive from cabinet selection through ordering. Our overall installation was smooth. We had some unforeseen circumstances impacting our ability to accept delivery of our cabinets on the initial agreed upon date. Kurtis was very accommodating in rescheduling delivery given our project challenges. We couldn't be happier with our cabinets for this project.

We had complete renovations to our kitchen and main bathroom. From start to finish, the design with Shanna was exactly what we asked for and Jeff stayed on top of the renovations, communicating each step of the way. Every worker was professional and the final product is elegant and functional. We were very happy with Kurtis and would choose Shanna and Jeff again.

We love our new kitchen! Kurtis Kitchen & Bath did an outstanding job, and Adrian at the Clarkston location was exceptional to work with—creative, patient, and really listened to what we wanted. The project was well-organized, and we went from demo to a fully functioning kitchen in just 30 days. Highly recommend!
