Precautions For Decorating Bathroom Cabinets
The bathroom cabinet is a relatively important piece of furniture in the bathroom space. It not only has the function of decoration and beautification, but also bears the heavy responsibility of bathroom storage. If you don’t choose the right bathroom cabinet, you may experience various problems such as falling off of the cabinet door, residual water stains, damp and mold, rusty hardware, etc. after staying in less than a year. Therefore, choosing a good bathroom cabinet is particularly important.
When choosing a bathroom cabinet, it is recommended to look at the following three points:
Material:
The material of the bathroom cabinet often determines its practicality. The common ones are solid wood, stainless steel, PVC, multilayer board, density board, aluminum alloy, etc., each of which has its own advantages and disadvantages. The wood feels good but will be cracked by moisture; PVC is cheap and affordable but it is easy to be damp, deformed and moldy in the bathroom; stainless steel is waterproof and environmentally friendly, but its surface is easy to be corroded and scratched… The material of the bathroom cabinet often determines its practicality .

The wood feels good but will crack due to moisture; PVC is cheap and affordable but it is easy to be damp, deformed, and moldy when placed in the bathroom; stainless steel is waterproof and environmentally friendly, but its surface is easily corroded and scratched.
In the long run, it is recommended to choose bathroom cabinets made of aluminum alloy. First, the aluminum alloy is green and environmentally friendly, without the problem of formaldehyde, and the surface of the aluminum alloy has undergone special oxidation treatment, which can be waterproof and moisture-proof and high temperature. It is not worried about mold or cabinet cracking when used in the humid environment of the bathroom. No matter how long you use it, the alloy bathroom cabinet can still be rust-proof and color-proof. You can choose the color you like at will, and you can even customize the wood-grain color cabinet, which will improve the appearance in the bathroom. Even if you really don’t like it in the future, the aluminum alloy bathroom cabinets can still be recycled to save some losses.
Style:
The appearance of the bathroom cabinet is also important. When choosing the style of bathroom cabinet, we must consider our own needs and the style of decoration. Generally speaking, there are two types of bathroom cabinets: floor type and hanging type.
I personally prefer hanging bathroom cabinets. Although the storage capacity is not good, it is more convenient to clean and hygienic. There is no need to worry about the problem of mildew caused by long-term contact with water at the bottom of the cabinet. When choosing the hanging type, remember to choose the way of the drain wall row as much as possible, otherwise the drain pipe will be exposed and the beauty of the bathroom will be greatly reduced.
Basin style:
Regarding the counter basin, it is divided into above counter basin, under counter basin and integrated basin. The above counter basin has high appearance and many shapes, but it is easy to produce sanitary corners, and if the basin is relatively shallow, water will often splash on the bathroom cabinet. Relatively speaking, the undercounter basin will be more conducive to cleaning.
However, if you have a budget at home, it is recommended to choose a ceramic integrated basin. This integrated basin and countertop are seamlessly connected, leaving no sanitary corners, and will not hide dirt and dirt. It will not only save worry and effort, but also The appearance is also a special bonus.
