Hi I’m Briony from Arova Hardware, a premium cabinet hardware and storage solutions provider based in Melbourne.
When it comes to the kitchen storage solutions, the first images to pop up into your head might be a Pinterest photo. To be honest, it is not too hard to achieve a Pinterest level organised kitchen, the question should really be how to keep it that way. The reason we can’t keep an organised kitchen storage is usually not that we are forgetful or that items are not well categorised. The most common contributing factor to an easily messed kitchen cupboard is actually whether the items are easily accessible and can be placed back to where they belong straight after use.
The rattan baskets and plastic containers can do a good job for the categorisation. The tricky thing we have in Australia is that the cupboard we have here is usually double the depth of those on Pinterest and this makes the accessibility critical towards an organised cabinet. Did you know that a good pull out system not only make your kitchen well organised but also may increase the storage space for up to 40% more than standard shelves.
In this thread, I will share everything I know to help you turn your cupboard into a better organised system with increased storage space and easier access.
I invite you to share your ideas, experiences on the kitchen storage. Of course, if you have any questions please feel free to ask and I will try my best to provide assistance. Please leave the internal width, depth and height of your cabinet. Alternatively send a photo, drawing or kitchen design plans and we will help to find the best storage solution for you!
