The sideboard is a multifunctional storage cabinet placed in the dining room. It is mainly used to place tableware, bottles and cans, and other items. It can also store some small items to keep the kitchen and dining room clean and tidy. However, some people always say that the sideboard is useless. Some electrical appliances cannot be placed at all, and it takes up space and is not used.

In fact, there are many styles and types of sideboards. You should not buy them blindly, but should choose according to the house type and living habits. Although it is just a cabinet, it can achieve many unexpected effects in different positions and forms.

.01Various forms of traditional wallThe more common sideboard design is often based on the wall, which not only does not take up too much space, but also forms a simple and practical storage space, which is convenient for storing tableware, wine and other items. The sideboard can also be combined with other furniture to create a richer spatial effect.

① Finished sideboard

Finished sideboards are the most common in life. They are a very suitable choice for families who want to install sideboards later. They are highly variable and can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual needs and space layout of the family. At the same time, the countertop of the finished cabinet can also meet the functions of a water bar and a handy storage, which is very practical.

If the space is relatively small, you can also choose this type of combination with a dining table. It is usually a storage space, and can be pulled out to become a dining table when dining. But please note that you should preset the position and measure the size before purchasing.

The semi-enclosed storage sideboard design is perfect for those who want toA home that efficiently manages and displays kitchen items such as tableware and condiments.This design cleverly combines the advantages of open and closed storage, not only improving the practicality of the space but also enhancing the visual beauty.

If you want to place some microwave ovens, coffee machines, or bread machines, it is recommended to reserve the size in advance. A height of about 50 cm can be used as a rough reference, but this size is not absolute and needs to be determined based on the size of the small appliances actually used in your home.

③Combination of double high cabinet + sideboard

This combination is a very practical and stylish restaurant storage solution. The H-shaped design cleverly utilizes the vertical space, allowing the restaurant area to have more storage capacity without affecting the passage and activity space.

The sideboard not only provides additional storage space, but can also be used as a display stand. The interior of the tall cabinet can also be set up with different storage areas as needed, such as open grids, drawers, cabinet doors, etc., to meet the storage needs of different items.

Solve the apartment type bug

Transformed into a practical "half wall"

In home design, how to ensure the permeability of space while achieving effective separation is a difficult problem faced by many families. As a design element that is both beautiful and practical, the sideboard can cleverly solve this problem in the form of a "half wall", bringing many advantages to the home space.

The height design of the half-wall sideboard just blocks the sight and realizes the division of space. The open grid on one side of the dining table can be used to place things to avoid dust. Moreover, when looking from the living room, the half wall can block part of the sight, avoiding the direct view of the messy scene in the dining room, and maintaining the neatness and privacy of the living room. Similarly, when looking from the kitchen, the half wall can also play a certain shielding role, so that the busy state of the kitchen will not be completely exposed.

The height of the half walls in the kitchen and dining room can follow the cabinets, which is about 85 cm. It can be adjusted according to actual conditions, and then ask the carpenter to build a wooden base on the surface and the board wall. The height of the wooden base above the half wall is about 20 cm (you can put some cups and tableware), and you must remember to leave circuits, whether it is some small appliances or charging your mobile phone while eating.

.03Things to note about sideboardsIn fact, there are many details to pay attention to in the sideboard, not just the size, there are a few other points to pay attention to.

①Dimension measurement

If no electrical appliances are embedded, the depth of the sideboard does not need to be too deep, 350mm-400mm is enough; the depth of the wall cabinet should be 150mm less than the floor cabinet to avoid hitting the head; the height of the countertop needs to be determined according to the height of the residents, generally between 850mm-950mm; the hollow height should be 500-600mm to ensure that small appliances such as coffee machines can be placed.

② Make a four-segment design

The three-section sideboard is currently quite popular. The cabinet is divided into three parts: upper, middle and lower. The upper and lower parts are cabinets, and the hollow part in the middle can be used to place some small appliances.

The four-section sideboard has a more significant improvement in convenience and practicality. This design cleverly increases the layering and functionality of the storage space by adding a layer of drawers above the floor cabinet, allowing different types of items to be more reasonably classified and stored.

③The cabinet should have a back plate structure

The reserved back panel in the middle of the sideboard provides a stable placement platform for small appliances.

Microwave ovens, rice cookers and other small appliances may generate some vibration or heat during use. If they are placed directly on the wall, they may cause damage to the wall, such as leaving marks or burning the wall. With the support of the backboard, small appliances can be placed stably on the sideboard, avoiding direct contact with the wall, thus protecting the integrity of the wall.

If there is no backboard, the wall will suffer over time, and the workload of cleaning and maintenance will also make you miserable. As for the thickness of the backboard, 9-18mm is a more suitable choice.

④Install track socketMany small appliances such as kettles and coffee machines are often used on the sideboard, so sockets are essential. However, the power cords of electrical appliances are limited in length, so it is recommended that you use track sockets, which not only allow the sockets to slide freely, but also allow the number of sockets to be increased or decreased freely.
