Kitchen design - drawer line vs high line units

littleoaktree

Just wondering if there are any disadvantages to using a drawer line cupboard unit (1000 wide). Will the drawers make the cupboard space less usable. Or does the advantage of two more drawers out weigh this?

Hi oneplan if you read this :-)

    Additional thought - rather than drawers in the base - if you use baskets or wooden boxes (still at the bottom) you can then simply pull the basket /box out and put it on the work surface to then easily find exactly what you need ?ie if keeping icing bags and nozzles or cookie cutters etc in there.

    Heavy mixers etc will be easier to access without drawers at the top !

      I prefer using high-line cupboards as I think they provide a better 'look' and finish to the kitchen. I'd recommend fitting internal drawers as required which you can open after you've opened the high line door.

      Wide drawers work better, a 1000 wide draw will give you more space than two 500's and importantly you have four internal corners and not eight !

      Thanks for the comments.
      I certainly agree about wide drawers in general and will have two lovely big sets of drawers.

      But I do need a cupboard for appliances and stuff that just doesn't work in drawers - was just trying to weigh up whether to have drawers in it or not. I will ask the supplier about internal drawers too.

      Hello!!! ;-)

      Drawers at the bottom might work better if you really need the extra drawers - won't impede access to your mixer / blender / small appliances etc ! Could keep the smaller attachments in them?!
      Dependent on weight involved you could consider roll out shelves ?!

      I prefer the look of a high line door so would go with internal drawers, but wide sets of drawers can look very classy. Be careful with quality when looking at any drawers, especially wide one's. Make sure the runners are metal, go all the way back so that the drawer is fully accessible. Also that the base and sides are solid and of course soft close. All those things will mean you can have lovely big drawer systems and keep using them for a long long time!

      I also think it depends on the style of the kitchen. A traditional kitchen can look very nice with drawerline units all round but a modern handle less for example would look better with a couple of big drawer units IMO
      The good thing about drawerline is the drawers do not really get in the way of things you want to put on the shelf below unless the item is very tall. The bad thing is if you have drawline all round most of the drawer could possibly end up filled with junk seeing as they are not very tall drawer ( mainly used for cutlery).
      The big pan drawer units are great for storage. Lots of inserts can go in them to get yourself ultra organised and the drawers slides out for easy access as opposed to a shelf unit where you have to reach into the unit to get what you want.
      As already said if you feel you have use for extra cutlery drawers but do not want the aesthetics of a drawline go for internal drawers

      One plan - bloody brilliant idea. I've used window film before on my back door and it is very successful!
