For the most part these cabinets are moveable. That is, they are not built into the walls of the room. At present, however, architects are planning for them as stationary and essential parts of the kitchen equipment. MATERIALS Steel and wood are the materials out of which the cabinet is made. The steel ones are better in many ways than the wooden types because they are easier to clean and are more protected against vermin. However, the wooden cabinets which are built with rounded corners are a close second to the steel cabinet, since these corners cannot become a receptacle for food waste and are practically vermin proof. Wooden cabinets are finished in a hard enamel paint and can be washed with impunity. Some kitchen cabinets are equipped with a rolling door which folds upwards; others have swinging doors. The swinging door, although it extends into the room a few inches, has the convenience of being able to hold extra little racks for extra little things, such as small bottles, market lists, and the like. Never fill your cabinet too full of things, as they are prone to fall down and jangle the nerves of the worker, thus really defeating the purpose for which the cabinet is built, which is maximum convenience. Besides the table top, which is used as a molding board, there are places for the flour bin, sugar container, bread, cake, pots, pans, rolling pin, cutlery, jars, dishes, marketing slips, and even the favorite cook book. The kitchen cabinet is a boon to the small housekeeper and is becoming so appreciated for its concentration of work and saving of steps that even the owners of large homes insist on installing it. That is why architects are including the kitchen cabinet in their plans. It means a saving of 75% of toil and thus becomes a factor in making servants willing to stay with you. Where there are no servants employed you, Mrs. Wife, get the benefit! There are many smaller cabinets on the market. The sink closet, which contains all the sink soap, swabs and brushes, a real convenience indeed, as is the long and narrow broom closet, for brooms and cleaning materials. Until you have your brooms properly garaged your nerves never will be entirely rested. Dealers and manufacturers are ready, in fact, to make any sort of a cabinet for you if they are not in stock. Don’t be bashful, get what you need for your kitchen--but never get more than you can use. Small neat white cabinets are made, to fit corners as well as flat spaces, and give the kitchen the efficient, clean look of the laboratory. SHELVING UNITS Steel shelving and built-in kitchen cabinets are growing more and more popular. Stationary shelves, built once and for all, can be installed, or you can begin with a few units and as you require more they can be bolted on to what you have, just like sectional bookcases.
