The kitchen is not the largest space in any room, yet it has almost the most varied items that need to be stored in a home, from formatting spices such as oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar, to appliances such as rice cookers and juicers, which are used frequently.
If there is a lack of proper storage, it inevitably looks messy and unattractive.
Kitchen shelving can solve this problem in one fell swoop!
Let's take a look at what you should look for when shopping.
Storage is a discipline only because it can be used to expand space in disguise.
Here's how to make the most of limited space.
We can make use of drawers to achieve partitioned storage.
By dividing the kitchen drawers into compartments, pots and pans of different sizes can be placed vertically in each compartment to maximize the space available, so that they can be found at a glance when the drawers are opened.
We can make clever use of the large white wall space by making long shelf dividers.
We make full use of the blank wall to increase the storage space and allow all pots and pans to be stored on the dividers, which are neatly arranged, easy to use, and also have a certain display effect.
We can buy extra narrow storage racks with castors.
If we use the clever use of ultra-narrow shelves on castors, we can turn a small, unobtrusive space into a convenient storage space in an instant!
This is especially true for narrow spaces such as between the fridge and sink, or along the wall.
In addition, ordinary drawer shelves can be difficult to access in the depths and it is easy to forget where you have put things over time.
With castors, it's easy to see what's where with a simple pull. If you buy this type of shelf, you will need to pay particular attention to the size.
Even if you are making the most of a gap, it is advisable to leave at least a few centimeters of width for the shelves to be pushed and pulled.
Often, steam, smoke, and heat are easily generated when using cookers such as ovens, electric hobs, and rice cookers.
Therefore, when storing them, it is important to make sure that you leave vents that give off steam and heat.
In addition, it's important to keep an eye on the outlet!
If the socket is in the right place in your home, you will almost certainly be fine as long as there is a small window on the back of the shelf.
Otherwise, if the shelf is located in a place where there is no socket, or if the shelf is blocking a socket, it is advisable to buy a shelf with its own socket for greater convenience.
If you decide to install dividers in your sideboard for sorting, don't forget to check that they are height-adjustable. Every home uses different tableware, and there are many different types of dishes, and bowls. Naturally, the height required for these dishes is also different. If the gap between the dividers can be adjusted freely, you can buy new cutlery and put it away!
There are many different styles of cutlery storage cabinets, some with glass doors, so you can see what you are looking for without opening them.
Some have wooden doors or drawers, so you don't have to worry about breaking them as easily as glass doors, and they can hide disorganized cutlery.
Both have their own characteristics and you can choose according to your own usage habits.
