INSTRUCTION

GOOD TO KNOW
A well organized kitchen is a kitchen you’ll love spending time in. When planning what your kitchen cabinets should include, think of how you want to utilize them in the best possible way based on your personal needs.

  1. The kitchen is a place where you normally do a lot of activities, and it can easily become a bit messy. By having your cleaning gadgets close by in a pantry or high cabinet, it’ll be easier to keep your kitchen spick-and-span.
  2. A deep pantry or high cabinet is ideal for storing everything from dry food, oil and vinegar to bulky kitchen items or small appliances.
  3. Gather all the items you use for setting the table in one place to make it smooth and easy. Spacious, fully extendable drawers in the base cabinets are great for cutlery, serving bowls and plates. Use the wall cabinets for lighter things like glasses, mugs and jars. If possible keep this area close to the dishwasher to simplify putting clean dishes back in place.
  4. Deep corner cabinets are perfect for storing bulky pots and other large cooking utensils.
  5. Add open cabinets to personalize your kitchen and create a nice break in a row of cabinets with doors. Fill it with cookbooks and other often-used items in the kitchen.
  6. The sink cabinet is a good place for recycling bins as you do a lot of food preparations in and around the area. If you can, place the sink next to the dishwasher as we have done here (if you can’t see the dishwasher, it’s because it’s built in with the same front as the rest of the kitchen). That way you can rinse dirty dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. With a built-in dishwasher between the sink and the cooktop, you also create a very practical preparation area.
  7. Use the top drawer underneath the cooktop for storing knives, whisks and other cooking utensils to have them within easy reach. Tall drawers underneath are ideal for tools and gadgets you normally use when cooking, for example frying pans, pots and strainers.
  8. A base cabinet between the cooktop and the built-in oven adds storage for all the extra things that might come in handy when cooking: spices, wraps, foil, oven mitts, trivets and other things you need when using these appliances.
  9. By placing the oven in a high cabinet, you get it at a perfect working height. And you get storage space for baking sheets, ovenware, serving bowls and whatever else you might use in the oven.
  10. Our fridges, freezers and fridge/freezers are designed to fit your space and how you cook. You can have them integrated in ventilated cabinets with reinforced shelves or free standing.

Above drawing is for illustration purposes only. Actual products may differ.

  1. UTRUSTA pull-out rack for cleaning supplies makes it easy for you to see and reach what’s inside. The organizer takes care of all of your cleaning supplies, so you can take care of the cleaning.

  2. Fully extendable, soft-closing MAXIMERA drawers behind the door enable you to see, reach and access everything. Even the things at the back you thought you didn’t have.

  3. Customize your storage in the drawers with the help of MAXIMERA adjustable dividers, and add organizers such as flatware trays, plate holders and boxes from the UPPDATERA and VARIERA series to keep everything in perfect order and easy to find.

  4. With an UTRUSTA corner cabinet pull-out fitting it’s easy
    to see and reach even the things furthest away in the deep corner. You can also choose carousels for both wall and base cabinets — just swivel them around to swiftly reach everything inside.

  5. Create extra shelves with VARIERA shelf inserts to get more space for glasses, bowls and jars.

  6. Make recycling fast and easy with HÅLLBAR lids and bins that you can combine in different ways depending on your needs. You can place them at the bottom of cabinets or in a shallow MAXIMERA sink drawer. Shallow drawers provide function while giving space to the pipes under the sink. A tip is to place an inner drawer above the recycling bins for storing extra bags, sponges, etc.

  7. UPPDATERA knife and utensil trays keep everything in place. And pot lid organizers from VARIERA will keep the lids in place, creating more room for the pots and pans.

  8. To utilize the space in the cabinet as much as possible, you can have hidden inner drawers inside larger drawers and behind doors to store all the small things you have in the kitchen. In this example we’ve put UPPDATERA inserts for spice jars in the inner drawer to make it easy to season the food while cooking.

  9. MAXIMERA add-on sides for medium and high drawers allow you to stack things on top of one another without them falling out the side when you open the drawer.
