The kitchen is always cluttered if you feel like you have too much stuff, but it really just shows that the storage isn’t working hard enough. This type of upgrade is usually done by addressing three key areas: height space, skinny corners, and deep base units. For Kitchens Swindon, visit www.mptiles.co.uk/kitchens/
Pantry Ideas – Utilise Tall Space
No, a pantry doesn’t have to be an entire walk-in room. A tall unit of a larder can hold all the cereals, tins, snacks, and gadgets in one single area.
For heavy items, use inner drawers (they require lifting out rather than sliding)
Organise spices and sauces with a door rack
Clear containers so you know what needs topping up
Corner consoles (stop losing things in the back of cupboards)
Sick of scrabbling around in the back of cupboards? The solution - bring things out to you. Pull-outs swing the shelves outward toward you and make good use of space.
Carousel units are suitable only for smaller goods – packets, baking bits, for example.
Think drawers for base units, which work with your pull-out concept perfectly here, as everything remains visible. Pullout bins keep recycling organised but hidden.
Pan drawers are a great way of keeping all pots and pans organised without the chaos of stacking them on top of each other.
150-300mm slim pull-outs are great for oils and bottles, trays or chopping boards.
Quick tip
Measure what goes in, then design storage to fit your stuff before you buy. The goal is easy: no stacking, nothing stashed away, and everything right within arm’s reach.
