What shelf material for bathroom linen cabinet

11 years ago

Hello,

We are renovating our Master Bathroom and have included a linen closet.

Does anyone have any recommendations for the material of shelves for the closet?

I have used Closetmaid shelving for an adjacent walk-in closet, but they only have particle-board or wire shelving. I'm worried that these won't be suitable for a bathroom (even though we have very good ventilation).

Any suggestions appreciated.

Talka a look at the Elfa shelving at The Container Store (25% off shelving sale might still be going on, and the big 30% off Elfa sale begins December 24th I believe).

FWIW, I currently have old wire shelving ca. 1979 in the closets in my master bath, and it's all in fine shape, even in the closet which is actually in the tub/toilet compartment.

I don't think you'll have a problem--just pick what you like best.
