How Do You Design A Custom Cabinet?
Designing custom storage cabinets is a great way to add a personal touch to any space. Whether you need a new pantry or tool and supply storage for the garage or basement, getting exactly what you need in a ready made cabinet may not be always be possible. From size to materials and finish there are literally hundreds of options. Add moldings, special hardware or a custom painted finish to give it the perfect feel. On the inside, place shelves, drawers or cubbies in exactly the places you need them to store your stuff. Calculate how much and what kind of storage you will need. Cans and boxes are best stored on shelves. Small tools or supplies like paper and fabrics may be best stored in drawers. Decide whether you will need doors, or prefer open shelves. Make a list of needed features. Choose whether your design is for an upper or lower unit. If you will be storing heavy items a lower cabinet may be best. If you plan to place a desk or work table in the area, consider an upper cabinet.
