Sink Cabinets  

A slow leak under a sink can quickly cause a lot of damage resulting in the need for repairs. Then again, maybe you are just ready for a change of scene in your kitchen or bathroom. Rest assured you will not find any lack of choices for sink cabinets, whether for the kitchen or for a bathroom. You will probably want your kitchen cabinets to match, or at least blend in with your existing cabinets. Maybe it's a matter of just wanting a larger sink, or a double sink, to help the household tasks go a little smoother. If you are looking for a bathroom cabinet the choices are probably more flexible, and know there are some stunning choices to be had.

For the kitchen, one simple way to add some extra storage space to what you already have in place is to add a Tip-Out Tray or two. Rev-A-Shelf is an American company that makes several cabinet solutions. A tip-out tray would go into those areas between the cabinet doors and the counter bottom. If you are not replacing a sink or adding a new cabinet, these trays are only 2 1/8" deep and 3" high, so they can usually be added with the sink in place. They are available in widths from 10" to 31".  

Another area that can be put to good use is the 'filler' space that sits between your cabinets. Rev-A-Shelf has 3", 6" and 9" width, slide-out organizers. They can be used for spice racks or a stainless steel peg-board can be installed. They have a series of pegs and hooks which can be used for hanging pots, pans, or cooking utensils. Another product that can prove to be a great organizer, and a very handy cleaning caddy, would be their "Undersink Organizer." The rails of this unit mount to the base of the cabinet and will pull completely out from the cabinet. The caddy is on two levels and can hold the cleaning supplies on the bottom shelf with a roll of paper towels on top. The built-in handle makes it easy to grab it and head off to get your cleaning done quickly.

A way to gain floor space in any kitchen would be to find a more useful place for trash cans. One solution is their "Pivot-Out Waste Bins." Keeping trash under the sink is not a new idea. What is neat about this product is that as the door opens, so does the lid of the stainless steel container. They are available in 14-20 liter sizes and would make a great solution for kitchens and bathrooms. There are 27 other choices for single or double trash containers. Know there are systems that are specifically made to facilitate recycling by providing several different colored bins for under-the-counter systems.

If you are looking for under sink storage in your bathroom, the choices are truly astounding, and hardly able to be covered in a single article. So, to start, Chans Furniture is a 21 year-old import company based in Miami, Fl.
