Properly organized space in the kitchen is the key to creating a harmonious interior. The kitchen set and its individual elements (cabinets for storing food, kitchen utensils, dishes and other containers) should be as convenient as possible in everyday use.
Each housewife uses various spices, oils, sauces, the packaging of which is a bottle when preparing or using food. In most cases, these "secrets of miracle taste" are stored in the refrigerator. But how inconvenient in the cooking process is to constantly run from the stove to the refrigerator and back. If you think that it is impossible to place the necessary bottles at hand, you are mistaken. And such a modern device as a bottle-holder for the kitchen is a direct proof of this. The second name for the bottle is cargo.
Types of kitchen bottles
Consider the classification of bottlers in three main ways.
1. Depending on the installation features:
- recessed. They are one of the elements of the kitchen system; they can be mounted in any drawer of the kitchen set;
- autonomous. Such cargoes exist separately from the kitchen wall.
2. Depending on the design features:
- two-level. Most acceptable than three-level devices. This is explained by the fact that a two-level cargo is a bottle-holder for a kitchen, the dimensions of which are most optimal for storing bottle containers in an upright position;
- three-level. They are in less demand than the previous type. Devices of three levels do not allow even small bottles to be placed (for example, soy sauce or spices);
3. Depending on what content will be in the bottle, distinguish:
- spice bottles;
- small bottles for water;
- wine bottles, etc.
Retractable bottle stand for the kitchen: dimensions and design features
A retractable opening system is equipped with all types of modern bottlers. As a rule, standard cargo consists of two interconnected shelves that are arranged vertically and have a withdrawable opening mechanism. The width of these shelves can vary from 100 to 200 mm (standard) with an interval of 50 mm.
The design of the bottle may vary. It can be an ideal place to store not only bottle containers, cans with spices, but also, say, baking sheets or towels. To store the last two in the construction of cargo, special holders must be in place (for a towel - a towel holder).
Also, sliding kitchen bottles can be equipped with bottle dividers, which will provide a contactless arrangement of adjacent bottles of oil, vinegar or jars of spices, thereby completely eliminating the possibility of vibration and ringing when opening.
The package for more expensive cargo includes a closer and soft closing system. This ensures a smooth and silent closure of the kitchen furniture.
Retractable Cargo Installation
There are two ways to install a roll-out bottlehouse:
- Attach the guides of the “retractable ” cargo system to the base of the duct - the bottom mount.
- Attach the slide-out guides to the side of the box.
The most stable and convenient is the second installation option.
A kitchen bottle rack can be mounted on either side.
Where to place a bottle stand for a kitchen?
Cargo can be located where it is convenient for the hostess in the event that kitchen furniture is made to order. In order to determine this “convenient place”, first of all, you need to understand what you will store there. If household chemicals, it would be more optimal to design cargo near the sink. If the bottle stand for the kitchen is designed to store all kinds of spices, oil, vinegar, etc., then the recommended area for its location is the cooking zone.
The option of designing a headset at the same time as two retractable small bottles is not excluded. It is categorically not advised to have them nearby.
It is worth noting that it is recommended to have a bottle-holder at the bottom of kitchen furniture.
DIY kitchen bottle rack
The work of craftsmen and needlewomen was appreciated at the proper level at all times. The fruits of manual activity have gained particular value in the digital age.
How to make a bottle carrier at home? Consider the easiest way.
A kitchen bottle rack can be made from plywood sheet.
Required Tools:
- drill;
- nozzle with a hole saw ;
- sand paper ;
- self-tapping screws;
- screwdriver.
Source materials:
Action plan:
- We make blanks. We cut out two identical rectangles from a plywood sheet, the length and width of which are 45 and 40 cm, respectively.
- On each sheet using a ring nozzle, cut absolutely identical circles. You need to arrange them symmetrically.
- We make the legs. Saw a semicircle at the bottom of the plywood rectangle so that a stable structure is formed. We do similar work with the second sheet of plywood.
- End faces of sawn circles to sandpaper.
- The bar should be sawn into four identical sections of 18 cm and cleaned with paper.
- Joining plywood sheets. We take the bars and fasten them to the workpiece from two sides (front and back), departing from the top and bottom by about 5-6 cm.
- Paint the construction.
Such a bottleneck for the kitchen can become the highlight of your interior. Photos of homemade cargo with step-by-step instructions for design can be found in a variety of sources. There are a lot of options.
What unspoken rules should be followed when choosing a bottle in a furniture store
You can buy any piece of furniture, including cargo, in a regular store, online supermarket. The latter has become overly popular these days. When the “your” bottle-holder for the kitchen is selected from the widest assortment, the photo needs to be examined in detail, the dimensions of the furniture should correspond to the necessary.
1. Give preference to furniture exclusively factory-made. A reliable manufacturer - a guarantee of product quality.
2. Value for money. At the lowest prices you can buy only low-quality goods.
3. Pay special attention to the hardware of the product - it must be expensive. Quality fittings simply can’t be cheap.
