Kitchen Layout Tips
|
|
|
|
- Always keep in mind that the kitchen should make life easy for you.
- Keep the sink, hob and food preparation areas within easy reach of each other.
- Ensure that you have clear work surface on either side of sink and hob
- Avoid placing appliances in the corners, which can create inaccessible spaces.
- Avoid placing drawers in the corners.
- Keep oven and hob separated from the fridgeto prevent damage caused by temperature clashes.
- Avoid placing your hob in front of a window especially if it is gas.
- Locate your dishwasher close to the sink.
- Locate cutlery drawers close to the dishwasher.
- Store cooking pots and trays near to oven and hob.
- Allow for plenty of power points around the kitchen.
- An eye-level oven is safer for young children and better for your back.
- Allow at least 1200 mm between lines of cabinets.
- Allow 1000 mm for access into the kitchen (900 mm minimum).
- Allow 300 mm for breakfast bar overhang.
- Don’t forget to plan in a range hood to extract cooking fumes to outside.
