The height and dimensions of the kitchen cabinets are an extremely important element, because nowhere else in your home is the utmost respect for ergonomics so decisive. In this article we would like to underline the importance of ergonomics in the kitchen, understood as a real workplace where precision in determining measurements is crucial.

Why is the height of floor-standing furniture so important in the kitchen? The answer to this question is because there are no other rooms in the house like the kitchen in which ergonomics plays such an important role. Ergonomics means the science that deals with and studies instruments and work environments in relation to the people who use them.

The kitchen can be defined as a real working environment and all the functions that are carried out within this space must be carried out as comfortably and conveniently as possible, thus ensuring the highest level of user well-being.

The measurements of the kitchen cabinets must therefore be proportioned in accordance with the principles of ergonomics. It is therefore necessary to calculate the height of the kitchen cabinets and all other measurements concerning the furniture based on the average height of a person and carefully considering the way some operations are carried out inside the kitchen, such as for example the folds necessary to open the oven or a door.

Obviously one must consider the fact that the height of people is never standard, since there may be particularly tall individuals and other individuals who are less than average in height. The reference of the height of individuals is therefore not an absolute parameter for the definition of the measurements of a modular kitchen module, but it is possible to adapt these numbers from time to time according to different needs.

Corner modular kitchen measurements

As regards the measurements of modular corner kitchens, it should be noted that a kitchen of this type is composed of a series of elements characterized by modular dimensions, which are developed in multiples of 15.

The various elements of a modular kitchen (height of kitchen columns, height of kitchen top wall units) are characterised by widths of 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 centimetres respectively.

By composing the modules in a variable way it is possible to obtain different versions of kitchen, with a different height of the kitchen top, according to one's needs, necessities and personal tastes. However, the modules most commonly used by Italians are the 45 centimetre ones; the 15 and 30 centimetre modules tend to be used to fill the spaces available as exactly as possible.

In any case, it is never the case to worry too much about the risk of having too high kitchen wall units in your own spaces, since, beyond the standard kitchen height, every company always offers the possibility to request modules of non-standard dimensions for their spaces, so as to adapt to each specific need.

Obviously, specific requests that go beyond the standards result in an increase in the price for the purchase of a modular kitchen. In any case, today there are many companies that have decided some time ago to put into production modules of 40 and 80 centimetres, so as to guarantee customers a wider choice and greater flexibility.

Kitchen furniture height from the floor

The height of the kitchen cabinets from the floor and the base units is between 85 and 90 centimetres respectively. However, many manufacturers offer their customers the possibility to choose different heights according to their needs and different statues.

For this reason it is possible to find bases on the market that start from a height of 83 centimetres up to a height of 95, 100 centimetres respectively. Obviously these are designed for particularly tall people.

Sometimes the choice of a lower than average height can be useful and useful when the sink is placed under a window sill, at a height that is usually 90 centimetres above the ground.

To calculate the total height it is necessary to make the sum of three specific elements: door, worktop and finally plinth. It should be noted that there are several possible combinations, which also vary in relation to the materials used for the production of the furniture.

Depth of kitchen furniture

As far as the depth of the kitchen furniture is concerned, it is by tradition and custom always equal to 60 centimetres.

However, it should be pointed out that a greater distance can still be considered functional, since it increases the view and the storage space. In this case the increase in depth is an optimal solution when the worktop is not large enough for one's needs and there is no surface large enough to place pots and pans and small appliances on it.

Usually the greater depths of the kitchen cabinets are chosen for the preparation of an island or peninsula. In this case the depth measurements are 80 and 90 centimetres respectively.

However, it should be pointed out that the depth of 60 centimetres is the parameter on which all the appliances to be built-in are calibrated, such as the fridge, the oven, the hob, the dishwasher and finally the sink. Also in this case it is possible to choose solutions outside the standard parameters, such as 45 centimetre dishwashers and 90 centimetre ovens.
