The reason why a modular kitchen is called as a modular kitchen is because of the baskets and trolleys that are used in it. A modular kitchen gets its shape because of these baskets. So it is important to know what type of baskets to use and how many types of baskets are there.
Modular kitchen baskets
1. The first type of basket that is important to know about is the wired basket. These are made up of stainless steel. There is one 202 grade basket, it is cheaper and another one is 304, which is better. Then there are channels that are sliding, which are better as the baskets don’t go inside with a bang they go very smoothly.
2. Second type of basket is the perforated basket of stainless steel. It is good to use perforated basket for keeping small utensils like spoons, knives etc. so they don’t fall down. These items can fall down from the wired baskets so it is better to keep them in perforated baskets. You can also use these baskets to keep the spice boxes. Perforated basket is of fixed size it cannot be modified according to your needs.
Tandem channels and baskets
3. You can use tandem channel to fix the perforated basket, this creates the third type of basket. This helps in accommodating even big baskets for your needs. You can keep big boxes of grain also in the tandem channel. It is very easy and smooth to use and is an advanced technology. If you make your modular kitchen using all three types of baskets then your kitchen will look very good and will be easy to use.
4. You can use tandem channels and in them you can use dividers either of plastic or of board, which creates this fourth type of basket.
While we are discussing about the baskets it is also important to discuss the importance of wire basket. Wire basket is important because of its durability as it is made of stainless steel so it does not rust. Another thing is that when we create drawers of that then dirt does not assemble there. Wire basket is also good because the moment you open the drawer you can see everything. Visibility and accessibility is very easy. It is very easy to take out items in the wire basket whereas in the tandem channel when you build drawers you have to create partitions to make the accessibility easy.
Conclusion: The conclusion is that it is better to use the wire baskets, perforated baskets, and tandem channel baskets in combination with each other for smooth functioning of your kitchen.
