Recommended Laundry Cabinet Height

Standard height of laundry cabinets

Right Height, No Guesswork

  • Rule of thumb: Countertop height ≈ elbow height − 5–10 cm (≈ 2–4 in).

  • Typical range: 88–92 cm (34.6–36.2 in); if you’ll do a lot of folding/ironing, go 92–95 cm (36.2–37.4 in).

  • Over a washer: lower the top by ~5 cm (≈ 2 in) for easier loading and to reduce vibration impact.

  • With a sink: 90–92 cm (35.4–36.2 in) feels like a kitchen counter—comfortable and easy to clean.

Quick calc: Countertop Height = Elbow Height − 5–10 cm (≈ 2–4 in)

Size Your Cabinet in 10 Seconds

Appliance types & quick cabinet rules

  • Front loader (typical appliance): 600 W × 850 H × 560–600 D mm
    Internal width: appliance W + 20–30 mm
    Internal height: appliance H + 20–30 mm
    Depth: worktop 600 mm; cabinet ≥ 580 mm

  • Top loader (typical appliance): 600 W × 900 H × 600 D mm
    Apply the same internal clearances as above.

  • Compact (45–50 cm) models: 450–500 W × 850 H × 560–600 D mm
    Apply the same internal clearances as above.

Sizes vary by brand/model—measure your unit before ordering.

Clearances (leave space):

  • 10–20 mm (0.4–0.8 in) on each side; 50 mm (2 in) at the back for pipes/ventilation; ≥ 600 mm (23.6 in) in front for door swing and loading.

  • For inset doors, confirm hinge swing and door thickness so they don’t clash with knobs/control rings.

Laundry cabinet measurements

Do / Don’t (Install Essentials)

Do

  • Place water in/out and power 150–300 mm (6–12 in) above the floor; add a trap on the drain to prevent odor.

  • For vibration-prone units, use anti-vibration pads and lateral bracing.

  • Add a 3–5 mm (⅛–³⁄₁₆ in) front-edge round-over for comfort.

Don’t

  • Build with insufficient depth, tight side gaps, or zero rear clearance.

  • Ignore door/handle interference or block the dryer exhaust path (if any).

Laundry Cabinet Material

Stainless steel laundry cabinets

Stainless Steel

Stainless steel is durable, strong, and cost-effective. It comes in various colors and is ideal for many types of laundry setups. While practical, its appearance can feel cold, and design options are typically more minimal due to the nature of the material.

Oak

Oak is highly versatile, allowing for various shapes and finishes. It adapts easily to different decor styles and offers a flexible, elegant look. It gives a high-end, luxurious feel overall, though it tends to be more expensive due to higher production costs.

Multi layer solid wood laundry cabinets

Multi-layer Solid Wood

Multi-layer solid wood offers a more affordable option than oak while still providing durability and aesthetic appeal. It can be painted in a variety of colors to suit different styles. An increasing number of homeowners are opting for paint-free versions, which are more eco-friendly and emit fewer harmful substances. The door panels can be made from solid wood or high-density boards, and are available in a wide range of shapes and patterns to meet diverse design needs.

Space Aluminum

Space aluminum is a strong and durable material known for its excellent resistance to sunlight, moisture, and corrosion. Its lightweight nature makes it easier to install, especially in high-humidity areas like laundry rooms or balconies. The profiles can be customized in various shapes, finishes, and colors through advanced coating techniques, offering a modern and sleek appearance. Although the price is slightly higher than stainless steel, space aluminum delivers great value for its durability, aesthetic flexibility, and long-term performance — making it a popular choice among homeowners.

Where to Put the Laundry Cabinet

When planning where to place your laundry cabinet, it’s essential to consider water access, ventilation, available space, and ease of use. Here are the most popular and practical placement options:

Bathroom laundry cabinet

Bathroom

The bathroom is a natural choice for installing laundry cabinets. With water and drainage systems already in place, it’s easy to connect the washer. Dirty clothes can go directly into the laundry bin or machine, and folding or sorting can be done right after showering.
Laundry room laundry cabinet

Laundry Room

Placing laundry cabinets in the laundry room  is especially popular in compact apartments. It allows shared plumbing and saves space. However, it’s important to consider separating laundry and food prep areas for hygiene reasons.
Balcony laundry cabinet

Balcony

Balconies are becoming increasingly popular for laundry cabinet setups. Natural sunlight helps with drying clothes and keeping the area mold-free. The open-air environment also provides more flexibility in layout design.

Custom Laundry Cabinet FAQs

Get straight answers to the most common questions about custom laundry cabinets—what they’re used for, when to choose custom vs. ready-made, the best cabinet and countertop materials, typical cost ranges, and timelines.

A: Laundry cabinets provide essential storage for detergents, cleaning supplies, towels, and laundry baskets. They also help conceal plumbing and appliances, creating a cleaner and more organized laundry space.
A: Custom cabinets are tailored to your room size, appliances, and workflow—ideal for maximizing space and aesthetics. Pre-made units are quicker and cheaper but may not utilize your space efficiently.
