Top 5 Storage Solutions for Modern Kitchens

It doesn’t matter how big your kitchen is, you will always manage to fill it. With more appliances, gadgets and utensils available than ever before, the modern day kitchen is packed full of goodies – and that’s before we even start to think about the food.

All of this means that there is a new emphasis on maximising space and optimising functionality, all while ensuring that the aesthetics aren’t compromised one bit. If you’re looking for more space in your kitchen, then here is our guide to the top 5 kitchen storage solutions that will transform your cooking space.

1. Smart Storage Solutions

Technology gets everywhere, and it’s fast becoming a real friend in any efficient kitchen. You can choose from a range of solutions:

• Corner pull out systems, such as our Dynamic or Elite range, bring the cupboard to youCarousel corners are a big wheel inside an L-shaped cabinet. They can be turned around giving access to every item very easily
• Smart larders have extra tough deep drawers inside, allowing for heavy things to be taken out one at a time

Sizes range from 150mm wide to 600mm wide and can be anywhere from base unit height to full height towers or even extra tall (2.3M).

2. Hidden Storage Solutions

While there are many advantages to hidden storage solutions, these ideas really came about to aid minimalism in kitchen design. It allows you to still have all the appliances and gadgets you desire, but without the clutter.

Solutions here include concealed drawers, integrated appliances or even disguised compartments, and they leave a streamlined smartness to any kitchen. You can even have hidden spice racks within walls, pull-out compartments behind decorative panels, and some people have opted for storage built into seating areas. It’s all about using your imagination!

3. Countertop Cabinets

Countertop cabinets are storage units that extend from the kitchen countertop up to near ceiling height. The idea is that they provide additional storage without taking up extra floor space.

In any busy kitchen, you want to have those essential items within easy reach, and this solution offers that while still maintaining a clean and organised space. Modern day storage thinks of more than just where to put things. It’s also about making sure the items you need the most are the easiest to access, equipping you with a kitchen that is very easy to work in.

4. Multi-Functional Kitchen Islands

Kitchen islands were once there only to help provide extra space for chopping and preparing food. But these have now been transformed to offer far more. You can now get built-in storage as part of your kitchen island, which could consist of deep drawers, pull-out shelves, and even refrigerated compartments.

There shouldn’t be an inch of your kitchen that isn’t useful, as it’s the most practical space in your house.

5. Vertical Storage and Pegboard Systems

If you want to be smart with your storage, then you need to utilise the vertical space as well as the horizontal space.

Pegboard systems are used in deep drawers to organise your crockery. They have become popular because of how customisable they are, meaning you really can make the space your own. Magnetic strips and hanging racks are also available so that your walls work harder for you in terms of storage.

Other vertical storage solutions consist of tall pull-out pantry shelves and overhead hanging racks, giving you no excuse not to be organised.
