| Hanging | A rail for shirts straight from the dryer |
Layout and cabinetry
- Stack the washer and dryer with a proper stacking kit to free floor space.
- Build cabinets around the machines for a fitted look.
- Add a worktop over front loaders for folding.
Open storage
- Fit open oak shelves above the worktop.
- Decant detergents into labelled glass jars with lids.
- Use woven baskets for cloths, pegs and odd socks.
Drying and hanging
- Install a pull-out drying rack in a drawer.
- Mount a hanging rail for shirts and delicates.
- Add a slim rolling cart between appliances.
- Hang an ironing board on a wall bracket behind the door.
Tip: Keep detergents, pods and bleach on high shelves or in locked cabinets, because laundry pods are a real poisoning risk for children and pets. Never decant chemicals into food-style containers without clear labels, always use a manufacturer-approved stacking kit, and leave ventilation space around the dryer.
