When remodeling your bathroom a big part of your process is going to be choosing and installing your vanity cabinets, because after all if you're going to remodel your bathroom why not show off your hard work with some beautiful vanity cabinets?
A good first place to start is with a layout for your design. With your desired layout in mind you should make your decision on whether to go with a double sink vanity or a narrower vanity because a double sink vanity will provide more storage space, while a skinnier vanity will give you more floor space in the bathroom.
Also consider the quality of the cabinets. Know that there are four grades to bath cabinets: ready to assemble (RTA), stock, custom, and semi-custom. Obviously custom-made cabinets are the most versatile, because they can be made to fit into any situation. On the other hand, custom cabinets also usually cost the most because of the flexibility that they provide.
Whatever grade you choose you should be sure that your cabinet drawers are at least 1/2 inch thick. You should also consider using more sturdy material instead of particleboard because bathrooms tend to get a lot of wear and tear. Therefore if you're considering spending a little extra money the bathroom cabinets are usually a great place to spend it.

Benefits of Choosing Cherry Kitchen Cabinets
Cherry kitchen cabinets are one of the most popular types of kitchen cabinets in the United States. There are many reasons for this, and there are also many benefits to having them. Here we will highlight three of the benefits to having cherry kitchen cabinets installed in your kitchen.
- Durability – Cherry kitchen cabinets are made of, you guessed it… cherry wood. This wood is a favorite for cabinet makers because it is so easy to work with, and lasts a long time. It is not as durable as some of the more expensive woods like mahogany, but it can certainly pass the test of time in an average American household. It is certainly much more durable than particleboard which less expensive cabinets are often made of. Cherry trees are generally found in the Eastern portion of the continental United States, and have been a favorite for cabinetmakers for many years.
- Look – Cherry wood has several unique characteristics, each of which add to the look of the cabinets that are made from it. One of the distinctive benefits of cherry wood is that its color deepens and becomes redder with time. This usually takes between one month and several years. Over the course of its life cherry wood goes from an almost blondish, light-colored wood to a deeper red, and makes the kitchen look much warmer and inviting.
- Price – For its durability and visual appeal cherry wood does is one of the best options around as it does not cost as much as other comparable woods. Cheaper products can be made to have the same look of cherry wood with stains, but they are often not as resistance to moisture, and do not offer the necessary protection to be an effective cabinet set.
