Bathroom cabinets - traditional to modern

Choose from an ever-expanding range of bathroom cabinets.

If you’re looking for a new bathroom cabinet, make sure you’re choosing one that fits in with the style of your bathroom. An increasing number of people are restoring or upgrading period properties and want to keep their bathrooms in-line with the period they re re-creating. When it comes to bathroom cabinets, things might get tricky, as wall-mounted cabinets aren’t really part of the period look.

Finding traditional bathroom cabinets

Instead of looking for wall-mounted bathroom cabinets, try looking for other methods of storage for your period bathroom. Choosing a wash-basin within an integral unit is often the best way of overcoming the problem. The unit will be made in period style, and you will be able to fit the interior with the sort of storage you’re looking for, such as shelving or drawers, without interfering with the look you’re trying to create. This, along with hanging a period mirror above the unit, is a good way to get round today’s modern storage problems without compromising on your period bathroom. You could go to reclamation yards to look for cabinetry that will fit in your bathroom, but reproduction bathroom cabinets are often just as well-priced and a lot less hassle to buy.

The contemporary look

Today’s bathroom cabinets come in a wide range of styles, but all will lend a great modern look to your bathroom. Most bathroom cabinets are mirrored, and some include lighting and hidden storage, so there’s certainly no lack of choice. Current styles include:

• Back-lit cabinets – providing a warm light around the cabinet area, but with enough light to be able to use the mirrored surface easily, these bathroom cabinets bring atmosphere and style to your bathroom.
• Integral shelving – buy a bathroom cabinet that has built-in shelving at either side of the cabinet. This gives you space to display attractive bottles or ornaments, whilst still being able to hide general bathroom supplies away.
• Push-to-open doors – no need for unsightly door handles as push-to-open doors give bathroom cabinets the sleekest of looks whilst remaining practical and useful.

Bathroom cabinets are often an afterthought, but it makes sense to include them in your plan when you’re designing a new bathroom. Not only are they essential items for storing bathroom supplies; they can also make a real design statement in your bathroom.
