A tall, narrow linen cabinet is an important component of a bathroom. Why? Well, it's simply because it minimizes disorganization and serve as storage inside the bathroom. It is, therefore, required that you remember to purchase a linen cabinet when furnishing a bathroom. To help you find the right furniture piece, here's a buying guide that's sure to lead you to the perfect linen cabinet:

What are the different types of linen cabinetry?

Just like kitchen cabinets, linen cabinetry comes in four grades, namely ready-to-assemble (RTA), semi-custom, custom, and stock. There are also two construction approaches: frameless and face framed. Since you are looking into a unit that is both tall and narrow, we are going to assume that you have limited space available. If so, then your best choice would be a freestanding unit. It can be in any of the four grades we mentioned.

If you will go with an RTA unit, you should know that you won't be getting the best quality. Because of the savings you'll enjoy, the quality of the cabinet's construction and materials is sacrificed. RTA comes boxed and will require a DIY assembly.
As for stock cabinetry, it's an affordable option as well but it offers little variety when it comes to the materials, size, and door style.
Semi-custom linen cabinets, on the other hand, offer a wider range of drawer and door styles, finishes, and materials. The downside is that they are measured in increments of three inches, so they don't provide a tailored fit.
The best type of linen cabinetry is a custom unit as it's completely adapted to be suitable in any given space. A custom linen cabinet doesn’t have any limit in material, finish, decorative elements, and style. The trade-off is the price as it's often more expensive compared to all other types of linen cabinets.

What are the features of good quality cabinet drawers?

Regardless of the grade that you choose, you need to make sure that the cabinet is well-constructed with drawers that are 3/8-½-inch thick. As much as possible, avoid stapled construction. Make sure that you check the drawers' fit in their boxes as they need to be snug and they should glide smoothly and open quietly. What you don't want are drawers that sag when they are extended fully.

Dovetail joinery will mark quality construction practices. Substrates, on the other hand, like particleboard, medium density fiberboard and plywood with dowel joinery are affordable alternatives.

What are linen cabinet typically made of?

Bathrooms receive a considerable amount of wear and tear, which means you need to choose the finishes and materials that are capable of withstanding water, excessive moisture, and heat. Typically, linen cabinets are constructed using MDF, particleboard, and plywood with drawer faces and a solid wood door.

Getting a tall, narrow linen cabinet may seem like a purchase you can make without putting much thought into it, but that’s far from the truth. The furniture piece will sit in your bathroom for many years to come, so you need to ensure that you've chosen the right one as it'll be with you for a long time.
