The key to the convenient kitchen is a thoughtful storage system. It is hardly possible to find suitable places to accommodate products, cutlery, accessories, dishes and utensils, if the boxes and their "filling" are incorrectly selected - various organizations of the organization, so-called organizational inserts.

Simple truths

The essence of the "good tone" rules of modern cuisine comes down to the fact that everything you need must be available in order to you easily and quickly get any item and return to the place.

Storage by zones. The kitchen will become ergonomic if you break it on five functional zones: storage of products; cooking; accommodation utensils; compartment for dishes and cutlery; Place for household chemicals and garbage. Radially equip each segment, taking into account its specifics, drawers will help.

Box format. One block of 90cm width is more than two 45 cm (besides it will cost cheaper). In widescreen boxes put forward for the whole depth, can be stored everything - from the smallests to severe utensils (the guides of the new generation are able to withstand the load with a mass of 30 to 80 kg).

Height sidewall. This parameter depends on the destination and location of the box. For example, a tabletop containable contained for storing cutlery does not need high sidelights; Sometimes it is almost flat. Boxes with open sidewalls more economical. But when opening, covers can fall out and hanging into the pens of pans that prevent the movement. Sidewines with inserts (transparent or deaf) - guarantee of order in kitchen compartments. The higher the side walls, the volume and the capacity container.

Common facade

Several boxes behind one common facade - a common solution when laying furniture. Kfasada is attached the main, the lowest container intended for storing large-sized objects, and the upper two or three traditional heights are extended when the front is open. Some factories offer products with a "leash" - the upper box is automatically advanced after the bottom.

Closers. In order to protect the facades and sidewalls from the destruction and prevent the doors flaking, it is better to order models with closers (tightening mechanisms) and damping shock absorbers integrated into guides.

Comfort floors. All necessary for processing products distribute under the working surface and in the adjacent zone. It should be noted that we use one objects more often, with others less. Depending on the location in the lower cuisine, the boxes are usually called upper, medium and lower.

Organizers inserts. Storage locations can be equipped with insert systems and in the process of operating the kitchen, ordering them in the same cabin, where it was purchased. However, it is more expedient to provide insertion elements at the design stage.

Everything has its place

Each manufacturer has dozens of insert elements systems (peculiar investment organizers) with different placement schemes that are a generally accepted standard. So, Blum offers an ORGA-LINE dividing system; Hettich - Orgaflag, Orgaflex, Orgawing; GRASS - INO (X) SYS, NOVA PRO (dividers), Vario System, Cucina Idr. They are suitable for drawers of all existing sizes and can be made both from budget plastics and from more expensive materials: steel, aluminum, wood (mainly beech, less often maple).

Upper boxes. As a rule, there are cutlery in them. An organizer for storage is similar to the constructor, change the compartment scheme (make them longer, arrange vertically or horizontally) is not difficult. Stainless steel and aluminum trays, intended for cutlery and accessories, durable and hygienic. But they have a fixed layout, calculated on the drawer of each size. Plastic liners allow you to flexibly change the layout scheme. Some organizers for cutlery are complemented by jackets for jars with spices (included in the package). Under the working surface, together with cutlery, it is convenient to store the necessary accessories. Organizers in the form of trays (BLUM, GRASS) can be rearranged, removed and transferred during table setting.

Practical advice

Useful area can be expanded due to the rational use of space, for example, behind the basement. Let's say, in the Innotech XL (Hettich) box, the reserves of bulk products, beverages, canned food, including for four-legged pets, as well as serving items (the mechanism of lifting the base for 15mm provides smooth slip). For angular kitchens, special angular boxes are designed.

Medium boxes. Watch containers (standard height 160mm) are placed dishes and accessories that are constantly used for cooking, bulk products, as well as napkins and dining textiles, food film, foil, small household appliances (for example, mixer), etc. Open packages with flour Sugar is reliably fixed in nests by rearranged longitudinal and transverse separators. It is even more convenient to store bulk products in organizers with plug-in banks or containers. Usually they are supplied with mobile frames, with the help of which a peculiar "grid" is created (easily rebuilt). It allows you to fix banks and boxes in the desired position.

Bottom boxes. The container with a high facade (often 320, 480mm) traditionally serves to storing heavy items. In addition, they dried plates and cups. Such boxes can be organized in different ways. For example, with a perforated pallet (steel or wooden), in the holes of which pins, fixing stacks and separating them are inserted, - thus space will be able to quickly adapt to the diameter of the plate. You can also use a profile of aluminum, which is hung with small plastic partitions.

16-21. Today, the hostesses have the opportunity to independently decide how to organize the internal space of the boxes. Inserts - organizers are manufactured from plastic, with a variety of system of rearranged separators (18, 20, 21) and metal (17). ORGAWING (19) drop-down trays are an ideal place for storing small items that can be lost in a large drawer.

Economic block

In any kitchen, elements should be provided for collecting garbage and food waste. In the West, the differentiation of waste was adopted, so the European manufacturers systems consist of a variety of combinations of retractable hermetic sections and garbage containers made of steel or plastic. The separation of garbage has not yet been mastered, so we, perhaps, the dual container does not hurt us. For storage of detergents, specially organized boxes designed taking into account the embedded bowl of washing and siphon are provided. They are designed in such a way that sponges and brushes, garbage bags, paper kitchen towels have always been at hand.
