Should kitchen cupboards be built to the ceiling?

Standard cabinets are not usually tall enough to go clear to ceilings. But the advantages of building and installing ceiling height cabinets are many. That upper shelf will be protected from dust and any cooking oils that escape the exhaust hood, so will be clean ready to use whenever you need them.

Items that get stored above standard height cabinets will suffer from the dust and anything that the cooking moisture deposits on them. And how often can those areas be cleaned? They will require a kitchen stool or ladder.

Ceiling height cabinets maximize storage capacity for your kitchen, create a seamless, high end look and eliminate that dusty space above traditional cabinets.

Just be sure to store items that are not in frequent use, as they will require that kitchen stool to access. Nevertheless, it will be a great place to store seldom used items and they will be as clean as the day you put them in there.
