Here are some expert kitchen storage tips to help you maximise your space.
Smart Storage Tips for a Clutter-Free Kitchen
Whether working with a compact kitchen or a spacious design, the proper storage solutions can make all the difference.
1. Optimise Your Cabinet Space
Cabinets are the backbone of kitchen storage, so maximising their potential is a must.
- Pull-Out Shelves: Install pull-out shelves or baskets for easy access to pots, pans, and pantry items.
- Corner Cabinets: Use corner carousel units or pull out shelves to make hard-to-reach areas functional.
- Adjustable Shelves: Opt for adjustable shelves to accommodate items of varying heights.
At QA Kitchens and Bathrooms, we design bespoke cabinets to ensure every inch of your kitchen is utilised efficiently.
2. Use Vertical Space
Make use of your kitchen’s height by incorporating vertical storage solutions:
- Tall Cabinets: Extend cabinets to the ceiling to store items you use less frequently.
- Hooks and Rails: Install hooks or rails for hanging utensils, mugs, or towels.
- Open Shelving: Add open shelves for stylishly displaying glassware, spices, or decorative items.
3. Drawer Dividers for Organization
Say goodbye to cluttered drawers by adding dividers for utensils, cutlery, and other small items.
- Cutlery Trays: Keep forks, knives, and spoons neatly separated.
- Deep Drawer Storage: Use dividers in deeper drawers to organise baking trays, chopping boards, or pots.
- Custom Inserts: Our kitchen installers can include custom-built drawer inserts in your design for seamless organisation.
4. Create a Pantry Space
If you don’t have a dedicated pantry, you can create one within your fitted kitchen.
- Pull-Out Pantry Units: Slim pull-out pantry cabinets are ideal for small spaces.
- Drawer Pantries: Install deep drawers to store dry goods, spices, and snacks.
- Open Pantry Areas: Include open shelving or cabinets with glass doors for an accessible and stylish pantry.
5. Multi-Functional Furniture
Incorporate furniture that doubles as storage to maximise space:
- Kitchen Islands: Add built-in cabinets or shelves to your island for extra storage.
- Banquette Seating: Use seating with hidden compartments for storing linens or seasonal items.
- Fold-Out Tables: Compact tables with storage underneath are perfect for smaller kitchens.
6. Consider Hidden Storage
Hidden storage options are a sleek and modern way to reduce visual clutter:
- Integrated Appliances: Conceal dishwashers, fridges, and other appliances behind cabinet doors.
- Toe-Kick Drawers: Utilise the space beneath cabinets for storing baking sheets or flat items.
- Pull-Down Racks: Install pull-down racks inside cabinets for storing spices or other small items.
7. Keep Countertops Clutter-Free
A clutter-free countertop not only looks great but also makes your kitchen more functional:
- Appliance Garages: Hide small appliances like toasters and kettles in appliance garages.
- Wall-Mounted Storage: Free up counter space by mounting knife racks, spice racks, or utensil holders on walls.
- Dedicated Zones: Allocate specific prepping, cooking, and cleaning zones to keep counters clear.
