In addition, the same cabinet layout will have a different look depending on the height of the wall cabinets you select. Within a standard 8’ or 9’ ceiling, you have the option to utilize 30”, 36”, or 42” high wall cabinets. While the 30” high wall cabinets may offer some savings, you are sacrificing some wasted storage space, whereas the 42” high cabinets will help to maximize all storage opportunities.
You may even decide to stack short height cabinets (such as wall bridge cabinets) above your standard 30” high wall cabinets to gain additional storage and create an interesting look.
