Medicine Cabinets

A medicine cabinet plays a leading role in your daily routine while adding style to your styling space. Still, choosing a medicine cabinet doesn't always get the same thoughtful consideration that other bathroom components might. Explore this guide to buying a medicine cabinet, and get key info for finding the right cabinet, with the right style and function for your bathroom.

Choose a medicine cabinet that matches your style and suits your storage needs.

Considerations

Get started on your search for the perfect medicine cabinet with the help of these questions. The answers to these questions will help guide you to the medicine cabinet that just right for your taste and space.

  1. Are you designing a powder room where storage won't be much of a concern? If so, you might opt for a simple mirror rather than a medicine cabinet.
  2. Do you need a primary storage space to accompany our pedestal sink or extra storage for items you use every day? Make your mirror space work harder for you by installing a medicine cabinet.
  3. What types of items will you need to store? Large bottles? Small items that get lost in the clutter? Examine the interior of the medicine cabinet's layout and see if it will meet your storage needs.
  4. Are you able to cut into your bathroom wall to install a recessed medicine cabinet? If not, think about looking for a medicine cabinet that can be mounted on the surface of the wall without affecting the wall structure.
  5. What is the lighting like in your bathroom and around your styling space? How does lighting affect your bathroom's aesthetic? What role does it play in the way you use your bathroom for grooming? Consider a lighted medicine cabinet or our other lighting options to fit your space and needs.

Size & Installation

Medicine cabinets come in a variety of sizes and installation types to match the scale and structure of your space. Learn how to measure the area accurately and ensure the proper fit ahead of your medicine cabinet installation.

Measure Your Space

Begin by measuring the width of your vanity. Typically, your medicine cabinet should be narrower or the same width as the vanity. To determine the height, measure the distance between your lights and faucet. Choose a medicine cabinet size that provides clearance above the faucet and below the lights.

Take measurements of your space first to ensure your installation goes smoothly.

Slow-Close Hinges

Slow-close hinges protect your cabinet mirror and items stored inside with hinges that ensure a soft close every time. Consider which direction you would like your cabinet's door to open. Most medicine cabinets can be installed with the hinges on the left or the right side of the door to accomodate your space.

Designs

Medicine cabinets don't just help you look your best—they can bring an added touch of glass and class to your bathroom. Explore medicine cabinet designs and find the finished glass edges and wooden framed or frameless options that complement the other components in your space.

Mirror Edges

Even if you opt for a frameless cabinet, you still have choices to add flair to your mirror.
