Many owners in the design stage of the cabinet will put forward some requirements that can be considered cheap, such as increasing the hanging cabinet, increasing storage space, etc.; or in order to save budget, choose cheap hardware. Can these practices really benefit? Professionals remind that it is good to save money, but make reasonable planning on the premise of ensuring the service life and function of the cabinet. The following are the reasonable budget points that experts recommend to owners.
The size has a reasonable range
Some owners will try to raise the cabinet as much as possible when designing the design requirements, or thicken the top cabinet, thinking that this can store more things. In this regard, Bo Xiaoni chief product experiencer Bai Xiaodong introduced that the cabinet has a common design principle in the design. For example, the general cabinet manufacturers are fixed in the process of producing and installing cabinets. The diameter of the cabinet is less than 330mm, the depth of the table is less than 600mm, the height of the ground from the table is about 900MM, and the counter is 650 from the lower edge of the cabinet. - 750MM or so (the best distance for the exhaust effect of the hood), which is a reasonable size that has been verified by the market for many years. It is not recommended to change it at will.
If the owner asks for an increase in size, it may cause inconvenience in future use. Bai Xiaodong introduced, first of all, according to the height of ordinary Chinese people, when using cabinets, the ground should not exceed 900MM from the surface of the table, otherwise the user's arms and spine will feel obvious discomfort during use. The thickening of the hanging cabinet will cause a collision. For example, a netizen complains that he usually encounters the hanging cabinet as soon as he cleans the face of the counter, which makes him very painful. According to Bai Xiaodong, this is probably because the thickness of the cabinet is more than half the depth of the cabinet. In addition, the heightening of the hanging cabinet does increase the storage space, but the actual utilization rate of the heightening part will be very low, which may not achieve the desired effect.
In addition, the regular cabinet manufacturers in the process of selling cabinets, there will be their own fixed pricing model, and this pricing model will have strict requirements on the size range of the product, if the consumer destroys the pricing model, the cabinet manufacturers will follow certain Proportional fees, consumers often do not account for what is cheap. Bai Xiaodong suggested that if consumers want to expand the storage space of the kitchen, they can use functional hardware such as baskets, drawers, pendants, etc., and the effect will be much better than increasing the size of the cabinet.
Extra project is full of people
The above counter basin is changed into an under counter basin, the drawer is damped, the cabinet door is freely stopped, etc. These are all items other than the standard configuration of the cabinet, which will increase the customization cost of the cabinet. So do we really need to choose?
Bai Xiaodong said that adding some functional hardware to the cabinet will definitely give the user a comfortable feeling of use. For example, adding a damping to a drawer will make it less noisy and more convenient and safe to use. But without adding these, the cabinets can be used normally. So it depends on the owner's budget and usage habits.
The reporter learned in the market that many building materials supermarkets have sales of damping, free stop and other hardware, with detailed installation instructions, and the price is not expensive. If you have enough hands-on ability, you may wish to install it yourself, which will save a lot of budget.
Hardware countertops should be budgeted
Bai Xiaodong said that if you want to reduce the cabinet budget, do not use your brain and hardware. Because these two positions are the most frequently used in the entire cabinet, especially the hardware parts, good quality hardware can be used for 10 years, and poor quality hardware may need to be replaced in one or two years.
In the countertop part, the good quality quartz stone countertop can resist the penetration of the acid and alkaline substances in the kitchen and the high temperature, etc., and the service life is longer. Although the inferior artificial stone countertops are cheap, they may not be cracked or deformed for a long time, and need to be repaired and replaced.
In contrast, the budget for the cabinet door section is a way to save. Bai Xiaodong said that the owner can use wear-resistant plates, melamine plates, such as low-cost, durable and easy-care materials, and bypass the paint, plastic, solid wood and other products with decorative effects and high prices. Purchasing cabinets according to the above principles can ensure that the cabinets are practical, durable and save budget.
