Bathroom Furniture
Storage is becoming a more and more important part of any bathroom; this is obviously a room where clutter is unwelcome and hygiene important. Storage solutions offered by bathroom furniture therefore become highly desirable. Whilst many storage items tend to be placed around the washing area, it is also common for there to be secondary pieces around the toilet for holding toilet paper and cleaning products. In addition there may be fixtures around the bath to hold soap and shower gels etc.
Bathroom furniture has to be specially designed and treated to withstand the unique environment that a bathroom creates. The heat and humidity that can be generated means that wood has to be speacially treated, alternatively materials such as glass and chrome plated metal are used instead. Bathrooms are not always the biggest rooms in a house, so a degree of creativity must be used when trying to create space to store all the various toiletries and cleaning materials that might need to be contained within the room. Fortunately there are numerous bathroom units available nowadays that help solve such problems.
Fitted bathroom cupboards and cabinets can help reduce the space taken up for storage. Shelves and niches can be used to provide even more space, whilst one should also think about the possiblity of using the space beneath the sink. In most instances the space here is rarely used, but can provide an additional space for storage. In small rooms, a multitude of small shelves for shampoos, deodorants and aftershaves can be effective, whilst a towel rail can help make efficient use of any spare wall or floor space.
Cabinets
How they work
There is a range of furniture to suit every bathroom with units ranging from 200mm for an open towel rail cabinet to 300mm & 400mm base and wall cabinets to a 600mm & 700mm basin base or WC cabinet. All panels are edged all round and have a rigid construction.
How they're made
Cabinets are made from 18mm melamine faced chipboard with an 8mm solid back, and come in a variety of styles.
How to look after them
The furniture that we supply is resistant to moisture, however it is important that any excess dampness that remains on it is removed with a hand towel.

How they work
Worktops are available in various lengths; ranging from 2000mm for a long run of work surface incorporating a number of cabinets, to 700mm & 600mm for just one or two cabinets to 300mm for just a single cabinet. They are available in depths of 337mm or 365mm and at a height of 28mm or 22mm depending on the range. They are available with either a rounded (bull nosed) or squared (profile B) edge, again this is dependent on the range.
