Build your kitchen cabinets up to the ceiling

Kitchen cabinets that extend to the ceiling offer a range of benefits, the first being maximizing storage space and streamlining the cabinets.

You won’t have spiders building their webs above those cabinets that have a gap between them and the ceiling, and you’ll never have to climb up there to dust.

That extra storage in the tall cabinets will work perfectly for items that are not used on a daily basis. We all have special dishes and appliances that are only used on holidays or for other special occassions; this is the place to store them. No need to dust them off when they are pulled out for use; they are kept dust free and clean in those tall upper cabinets.

Stock cabinets come in a range of heights, the standard upper cabinets start at about 18 inches above the countertop. You can check with you contractor or cabinet maker for the best arrangement of those upper cabinets.
