Floor Standing Or Wall Mounted Bathroom Cabinet?

The bathroom cabinet is an indispensable protagonist in the bathroom at home. It can not only solve the problem of washing, but also meet the demand for storage. According to the different installation methods, bathroom cabinets can be roughly divided into two types: floor hung and wall hung. So should we choose the floor type or the wall type?

Floor type bathroom cabinet: the bottom of this bathroom cabinet is in contact with the bathroom floor, which is simple and convenient to install, and has a large storage space. At the same time, because of the grounding, it can store heavy debris.

Wall mounted bathroom cabinet: this kind of bathroom cabinet is directly embedded in the wall, so the lower part does not contact the bathroom floor, which is more suitable for small family bathrooms where the separation of dry and wet is not in place. But because it is light and compact, the storage space will be greatly reduced.

Which bathroom cabinet do you choose? This needs to be based on the actual situation of your bathroom and personal style preferences. To put it simply, we need to think about the following three issues.

1. Structure of wall

Only load-bearing walls can consider installing wall mounted bathroom cabinets, otherwise you can only choose floor mounted bathroom cabinets. Because the bathroom cabinet has a certain weight, there are certain requirements for the structure of the wall. If the wall cannot bear the weight of the bathroom cabinet, the bathroom cabinet is prone to fall, which has a great potential safety hazard.

2. Space area of toilet
If your bathroom is less than 5 square meters, it is recommended to choose a wall mounted bathroom cabinet. Because it can be hung on the wall, does not occupy land, is small in size, and is easy to clean, so for small units, wall mounted bathroom cabinets are a good choice.
If your bathroom has an area of more than 10 square meters, it is recommended to choose a floor standing bathroom cabinet. Its various drawers can double the storage, and other styles are better matched to make it look more high-end, grand and upscale.

3. Drainage mode of toilet

Before purchasing a bathroom cabinet, you need to determine whether the bathroom is wall or floor drainage. Different drainage methods determine different styles of bathroom cabinets: if it is floor drainage, it is better to choose a floor type bathroom cabinet, so that the cabinet can hide the sewer pipe, making it more beautiful visually; If it is wall drainage, there is no problem of exposed water pipes, so both floor and wall mounted bathroom cabinets can be selected.
