White Over The Toilet Storage Cabinet

205 Ideas by Tara Gosselin

A white over the toilet storage cabinet is a game-changing solution in bathrooms where the toilet seat isn’t right underneath a window: it can actively help you make the most of what would otherwise end up being some wasted wall space! Thanks to its vertical build, it also elevates the entire room, making it appear taller and airier than it actually is. Consider installing some anti-tip straps to prevent these vertical cabinets from falling, especially if you have young children.

Is over the toilet storage outdated?

White over the toilet storage can be considered outdated as it’s most definitely not as popular as it used to be. However, this most certainly doesn’t mean that it can’t work in your house or that you shouldn’t consider it!

In fact, as well as being a more logical choice in modern and retro interiors, the right over the toilet storage can be a proper lifesaver in the smallest bathrooms where no additional cabinets would fit.

What do you put in over the toilet storage?

White over the toilet storage cabinets are convenient and functional containers to keep all your bathroom items in. If you’ve run out of room under the sink, store loose toilet paper rolls in your over the toilet cabinet. This makes it easy for guests to find if they run out of paper while using the toilet. You can also roll up small hand towels or guest bath towels and stack them neatly on a storage unit shelf.

Over the toilet cabinets are also great for holding make-up and hair supplies, as well as toiletries. Set your gels, hairsprays, leave-in conditioners, make-up brushes, and compacts inside the cabinet doors. For even more optimized storage, place smaller items in little baskets or plastic containers inside the cabinet. This leaves your bathroom counters clutter-free and makes your bathroom feel organized.

How high should a shelf be above the toilet?

Installing a shelf above the toilet at the correct height depends on the type of shelving and the bracket you’re using. For example, a white over the toilet storage shelf needs to be two feet above the toilet. But, if you’re installing a 2” thick shelf using 6” brackets, you’d need to install the shelf at least 8” above the toilet.

You can also invest in an over-the-toilet shelving unit, which forms a frame over the back of your toilet tank, supporting a shelving cabinet above. On these units, the shelving usually starts at a minimum of 35” from the floor because it needs to clear the height of your toilet. The back of a toilet tank usually ranges from 21” to 31” high, depending on the model.
