The differences between kitchen cabinets and bathroom cabinets are not readily known, especially to the first-time shopper. Bathroom cabinets are a bit shorter, shallower, and don’t have quite so many options as kitchen cabinets from the same retail manufacturer.
However, because they are labeled as “Bath” cabinets, many designers may flip to that section of a catalogue when sitting down with a customer to come up with a plan. Yes, there are specific bath cabinets that don’t have a kitchen counterpart, but often times it may be more practical and aesthetically pleasing to try and swap out different types of cabinets. You may end up with a more functional bathroom in the end.
Other differences between Kitchen and Bathroom Cabinets
While the main and crucial difference that separates a kitchen cabinet from a bathroom cabinet is size (bathroom cabinets being marginally shorter and less deep), there are other factors to consider when choosing to enact a more custom remodel of your home’s cabinetry.
Height
Even though the accepted standard is that kitchen cabinets are often taller than bathroom cabinets, recent design trends are shifting toward a taller and less wide bathroom cabinet, which turns out to be much more convenient as years pass, due to less bending over being done over time.
Accessories
Consider for a moment the different accessory options that come into play depending on which room your cabinetry remodel is completed; as far as your imagination may project, so may your desires be enacted with your remodel project. If you are taking the time and resources to renovate the feel and design of your home, why not go the extra mile and make it truly your own with accessories that befit your nature and preferences?
Color
Kitchens and bathrooms are rarely, if ever, the same color. Why choose stock cabinets of the same color for two entirely different rooms? With semi-custom or custom cabinetry options, you never have to settle for a stock feel. Contrast with your bright, clean bathroom by installing a glossy black or mahogany cabinet, while at the same time accenting your cozy and earth-toned kitchen with a lighter, more rustic wood species.
