Kitchen hinged cabinets: pros and cons?

Many people wonder: "Is it better to have open shelves in your kitchen or a hanging closet?" Open shelves have an advantage over hanging cabinets - do not take up much space in the kitchen. But do not just run to the furniture store and buy shelves.

Kitchen hanging cabinets are primarily designed for storing various cutlery, spices, seasonings and food. Such furniture has doors, thanks to which everything that is stored there, is completely invisible. Also, hanging cabinets can have special compartments for kitchen appliances. This is very convenient when sorting items, since nothing gets lost, everything will be in place.

Often, the cabinet is attached to the kitchen wall just above the working area. Due to the closed type, the doors protect the food and kitchen utensils from the harmful effects of sunlight, dust, and other unfavorable factors, which can not be said for open shelves.

Also open shelves do not tolerate confusion. This is not the place for saucepans, plates and other cutlery. Unless to arrange them so that the eye fascinated. And this does not go far with everyone, because they will have to place these cutlery several times a day. Therefore, open shelves are used only to store antique cups, silver spoons and other ornaments that are used once a month (and even less often).

Another disadvantage of open hinged shelves is that they require not only strict order, but also strict purity.

Kitchen hinged cabinets help to hide more cutlery and food. This detail is very important for small kitchens that require maximum functionality and practicality. The hinged cabinet helps to use the workspace with maximum efficiency and functionality.

At the moment there are several types of curtains:

• With hinged doors;
• With swing doors;
• With doors like "coupe".

Today, more often you can see the kitchen furniture, decorated with all sorts of metal, wooden or glass inserts.

In many furniture stores, there is another version of kitchen shelves, the so-called kitchen island. Its construction is a table, combined with a cabinet. Kitchen island is superior to all other designs in its functionality, but it is suitable only for large and spacious kitchens. So when choosing a hinged furniture or kitchen island, you should pay special attention to the overall style and size of the kitchen.

Important in this case and the material from which kitchen cabinets are made. There are variants of plastic, metal, artificial and natural wood.

Natural wood is the most expensive and environmentally friendly furniture material. Often, it is made of furniture such as "coupe" and kitchen hanging cabinets. The natural tree, which is used in the production of kitchen furniture, has a rather high cost. However, any furniture made from natural wood is very reliable, practical and durable.
