Why Tall Kitchen Units?

Why Tall Kitchen Units is a Game-Changer for Your Home

Tall kitchen tower units offer a unique and practical solution for all types of kitchens, from traditional to modern Shaker and timeless rustic, and for any size, be it compact or a spacious open-plan style. In simple terms, tall kitchens are what it says on the tin - floor-to-ceiling cabinets that provide more storage and space than standard cabinets, especially for more oversized food items such as bottles and jars, appliances and other large and awkwardly shaped cookware and even cleaning tools. Not only are tall kitchen cabinets incredibly functional, especially in a contemporary kitchen where clutter is not a welcome sight, but due to their sleek and modern aesthetics, they also make appealing features that seamlessly blend into the overall kitchen design. There is an array of tall unit kitchen ideas to compliment any theme or style of kitchen, with no limitations. You can explore various design elements that will keep within the theme of the taller cabinets. For example, a classic Shaker kitchen with tall units with beading, cup handles or even a handless option for a more contemporary feel will undoubtedly look impressive, offering an attractive and decorative finish with ample storage space to utilise.

What are the benefits of including tall kitchen cabinets in your new kitchen design?

There are many benefits to investing in tall kitchen cabinets and units; for example, tall kitchen units usually have several shelves to accommodate all your groceries and space for other handy kitchen items. This universal feature makes tall units ideal for a large family due to their extra storage capacity, designed with accessibility and safety in mind, especially with curious little ones roaming around! The tall kitchen-style cabinets also help produce a sleek contemporary feel, ideal for creating a minimalist and modern feel that delivers an additional perception of space and clarity. Whatever theme you choose, kitchens are notoriously bustling places, especially in today's more modern / living styles; this makes the need for additional storage space ever more essential. Large households or families must have an organised kitchen, where every appliance or item is assigned its storage area; this saves time and energy when preparing and cooking meals and ensures the kitchen zone is neat and clutter-free for when socialising or unexpected guests.

Adding tall kitchen units is the ultimate kitchen customisation.

Tall kitchen units are versatile features that offer practicality and function to the smooth running of your kitchen space, no matter the style or theme. Whether you choose a modern, traditional or ultra-minimalist style kitchen design, customising tall units to fit any layout is incredibly straightforward, ideal for maximising space and enabling you to declutter and create a spacious area for food preparation, socialising and working. Collaborating with a kitchen planner and designer is a great way to ensure you explore all the possible ways to utilise space and ensure that the tall units are working to their maximum capacity. A professional planner will advise on how to make the most of areas such as a kitchen pantry. Tower units will offer ample storage for various items, from food to bulky appliances such as fridges, blenders, and microwaves.

Tall kitchen units are an astute investment in any style, shape or size of the kitchen; they offer the perfect storage solution that combines functionality with aesthetics and will work harmoniously with a range of other sizes and styles of cabinetry. Their primary focus is their ability to store large and awkwardly shaped kitchen items and appliances that they would otherwise need help to fit in regular cabinets and drawers. Aside from housing bulky kitchen tools and other large items, tower kitchen units, due to their sleek and stylish features, also work well as statement pieces on show in the main kitchen area for all to admire! The space within the tall units is easily adaptable to whatever items are required to be stored. For example, shelves can be interchangeable, with different heights depending on the things you are keeping. In particular, this is useful for storing items such as baking tools, spare cooking and glassware, large serving bowls and even a drinks cabinet; things that are not used daily but are easily accessible if required. You can even customise your tower units to hold items such as an ironing board and vacuum cleaner, perfect for keeping out of sight but at hand as needed.

What are the main benefits of tall kitchen units to your new kitchen design

The benefits of investing in tall kitchen units far outweigh the cons; tower cabinets have a few drawbacks, but still, some elements may only suit some. One of the most common issues is that due to their height, some people may need help accessing the top shelves; this can be frustrating when you need to access items in a hurry and need a footstool or way of reaching the higher shelves. Although many options are available for an extensive range of tall kitchen units, the cost of some can be challenging compared to standard cabinets and cupboards, even though the benefits offered are arguably a wise investment. The nature and overall size of the tower units may mean more raw materials, fixing, and installation time required, which can add a little extra to the price of the overall kitchen, but still, a very worthwhile cost that will add additional hidden space but also an attractive and stylish feature to the kitchen ambience.

Suppose you want kitchen cabinets with generous storage and unrivalled durability and quality. In that case, tower units are ideal for any kitchen design, from traditional to the more modern. Due to their quality and robust structure, tower units offer unparalleled longevity. They have an exceptional resistance to wear and tear whilst playing an aesthetical role where they are not just a functional aspect but also an attractive centrepiece depending on your kitchen and desired layout.
