Bathrooms are notorious for never having enough storage, which is why we’ve curated this list of eight wooden over-the-toilet storage options. They all sit snugly around your toilet and cleverly use the space above the commode to give you a combination of open and closed storage. This lets you combine valuable space to hide practical but not pretty items, as well as providing you with areas to display a little decor that turns your bathroom from something purely functional to a room where form can meet function.

Barn Door Over The Toilet Storage Cabinet
August Grove®
Crafted with high-quality particleboard and MDF, this sturdy over-the-toilet storage features a barn-style sliding cabinet door that slides on contrasting black hardware. The storage unit requires the help of a screwdriver to assemble the pieces together.
Designer Advice:
Bring a little modern farmhouse into your bathroom with this wood-barn-looking over-the-toilet storage cabinet. The slightly grayed finish color combines with warmer wood tones to let you decorate in either warm or cool colors. A side panel of narrow shelves extends the finished width to 26.18”, so make sure you have enough space around your toilet before purchasing. The side shelving can only be installed on the left side of the toilet.

Free Standing Over The Toilet Storage Cabinet
17 Stories
This free-standing over-the-toilet storage extends to 66” above the toilet with an open shelf directly above the toilet. This open shelf lets you conveniently stack two rows of toilet paper rolls. The narrow cabinet has 23.6” space between the legs, making it good for small spaces.
Designer Advice:
If you want to add some design interest to your bathroom, this wooden over the toilet storage combines warm rustic wood tones with a black metal frame. Two louvered shutter doors add to the country design sensibility. The bottom support cross-bar sits 7.8” off the floor, which may not be compatible with all toilet designs. Toilet tank access is still available by lifting the open shelf.

Tall Over The Toilet Storage Cabinet
Red Barrel Studio®
Constructed from manufactured eucalyptus and pine wood, this wooden over-the-toilet storage cabinet extends up to 66” high. It comes with two helpful tip-over restraint brackets. One fixed shelf inside the cabinet allows you to choose the perfect shelf height.
Designer Advice:
Available in navy blue, espresso, gray or white, this wood bathroom cabinet sits over the toilet. In a room typically finished in whites or neutrals, we love the opportunity to add some color with the navy option. Add some navy and white towels and a patterned shower curtain that includes hits of navy blue. This is a great way to make a sometimes boring room turn into something special.

Cubby Shelved Over The Toilet Storage Cabinet
Sand & Stable™
The five shelves in this over-the-toilet storage cabinet add lots of storage to your bathroom. The upper cabinet is split into four storage cubbies with an adjustable middle shelf. The sliding barn door will only cover one half of the upper cabinet at any one time.
Designer Advice:
If your bathroom has brown or gray (or colored) floors and tub/shower surround, this white wood over-the-toilet storage cabinet can give some relief from the neutral colors. The white is a true white with no other undertones and should relate well to most of the porcelain in your bathroom. This saves you from having the white of the cabinet look “dirty” in comparison to the true white of most toilets.

Espresso Over The Toilet Storage Cabinet

Designer Advice:
Go for the drama with this espresso brown over-the-toilet storage cabinet in your bathroom. Providing high contrast with all the white porcelain in a typical bathroom, repeat the dark brown color in your towel rods and sink cabinet pulls. An espresso-framed mirror over the vanity will pull the look of your room together. Just make sure to add some color with the artwork, towels and decorative accessories.

The open bottom shelf stands 34.6” from the floor, and at only 9.4” deep, the toilet cabinet should work for most toilet designs and sizes.
