Medicine Cabinets for Every Bathroom

A medicine cabinet is an essential part of any bathroom design. This small but incredibly functional piece offers numerous shelves for keeping medications organized and secure. Because they are mounted higher on the wall, they are out of reach for children, providing peace of mind. Selecting the right medicine cabinet for the bathroom is all about knowing which features to look for in the piece.

Mounting Types

Recessed medicine cabinets are designed to fit between the studs and require a portion of the drywall to be cut away. The cabinet then nestles into the cutout, making it nearly flush with the wall. This makes recessed medicine cabinets a great choice for small bathrooms. They are often mounted to the side of a sink for easy access.

Surface-mounted medicine cabinets are designed to attach directly to the wall, much like a piece of wall art would. This option is a great choice for rental properties and when you don't want to make a hole in the drywall. They install in a matter of minutes but typically extend a good few inches away from the wall.

Style Options

Framed medicine cabinets offer a classic, traditional look. They often feature a mirror in the center surrounded by metal or wood accents that are repeated in the casing surrounding the cabinet.

For more modern effect, a frameless medicine cabinet is a great option. With this option, the mirror extends all the way to the edge of the front. Some frameless medicine cabinets also offer integrated lights that make it easier to apply makeup or put in contacts.

Additional Features to Look For

Once the search has been narrowed by mounting type and style, start taking a look at some of the individual features offered by each cabinet. Think about the way the cabinet is used and find one with features that enhance functionality.

Integrated Outlets

If the bathroom is short on outlets, looking for a medicine cabinet with integrated outlets is a great option. This makes it easy to plug in an electric toothbrush, hair dryer, or curling iron.

Integrated USB Ports

With as many smart devices as we use today, selecting a medicine cabinet with an integrated USB port can be an incredible convenience. This will allow a phone or tablet to remain handy while allowing it to recharge.

Interior Lights

If you need to read medicine bottles to select the right one, an interior light in the medicine cabinet can be extremely helpful. This small light provides a clear view of everything in the cabinet without requiring bright overhead lights to be turned on.

Mirror Defoggers

Go directly from showering to putting in contacts with a medicine cabinet featuring a mirror defogger. This handy feature prevents fogging and keeps the mirrors from getting streaked with moisture.

Night Lights

If the bathroom is often used at night, select a medicine cabinet with a night light. This will help illuminate the way without the need for the harsh brightness of the vanity lights.

Reversible Doors

The medicine cabinet needs to be readily accessible. Think about which the door needs to swing when making a final selection or opt for a medicine cabinet with a reversible door that can be customized to suit the needs of the space.

Give the bathroom the finishing touch it needs by installing a medicine cabinet. They can be mounted to the side of the sink or placed where you would put a vanity mirror to give the space added storage. Browse the entire collection to find the perfect option for your bathroom.
