How often do we truly make the most of the under-sink space when designing a kitchen? More often than not, it’s either left unused or just turned into a simple cabinet with doors, which ends up being more of a hassle than a help. Think about it: every time you need to reach for items in that space, you have to bend down and open those doors. When the cabinet lacks proper design, valuable storage space goes to waste, making organisation a constant struggle. Blum has solved this problem with a smarter, more practical storage solution: the sink cabinet for kitchens. This innovative design creates drawers around the sink, maximising the space while making it easier to use. The setup includes a U-shaped drawer that wraps around the sink, plus a high-sided pull-out drawer right beneath it for extra storage.
Let’s take a closer look at how this design not only helps designers but also makes life easier for homeowners by bringing new life to that often-forgotten under-sink space.
Add more storage space for a clutter-free kitchen
Blum’s sink cabinet has a U-shaped drawer around the sink that can store cleaning products. Thus, no more looking for your brush or wiper here and there. You can find it right under the sink. It also comes with a high-fronted base cabinet for dustbins with an inner drawer for extra storage, which goes below the U-shaped drawer. Overall, the sink cabinet optimises every inch of space available under the sink to provide maximum storage. Design the sink cabinet with Blum’s LEGRABOX or TANDEMBOX box systems for maximum storage space utilisation.
Find what you need when you need it with these under sink cabinets
At times, maximising storage spaces leads to messy and cluttered cabinets. That’s where Blum’s AMBIA-LINE and ORGA-LINE systems come into the picture and solve your problem. These drawer organisers hold each item in their places and make sure that items are always within a visible range. Moreover, the design of these under-sink cabinets provides easy access to kitchen essentials whenever you need them.
Plan your sink cabinets: Narrow or wide, just as per your needs
If your sink space is somewhere around 80-120 cm, opt for a wide U-shaped drawer for maximum storage. Moreover, if the sink space is narrower and between 45-75 cm, a more compact, narrow sink cabinet can be installed. You can also add a high-fronted pull-out drawer at the base with inner drawers to make the most of the available space. This way, you’ll keep everything organised, easily accessible, and also fully utilise every inch of under-sink storage.
SERVO-DRIVE: For smooth, handle-free opening and closing of drawers
Improve your sink cabinet by adding Blum’s SERVO-DRIVE technology for a handle-less design. This electrical system allows you to open the cabinet with just a light push. It also features BLUMOTION, which ensures the cabinet closes smoothly and quietly, no matter how hard you push it.
Multipurpose storage cabinets for both kitchens and bathrooms
Blum’s sink cabinet can also be used in bathrooms. If there’s enough space, you can design a large cabinet under the sink, with a base pull-out and an inner drawer to keep all your bathroom essentials organised. Pair it with Blum’s inner dividing system for easy access and neat storage.
In Indian homes, we often face limited storage, and we constantly seek more space. That’s where Blum’s sink cabinet shines. It makes the most of every inch under the sink, creating a spacious U-shaped cabinet to store kitchen and bathroom cleaning supplies neatly. Add a base cabinet with inner drawers to maximise storage even more, and integrate SERVO-DRIVE for effortless opening and closing.
