Metal Kitchen Cabinets

Metal Kitchen Cabinets were all the rage in the modern kitchen of the 30's, and post World War II 40&'s and 50's. They were modern and they looked good, they were easy to keep clean and they were affordable. If the cabinets began to look a little worn and tired all you had to do was spray paint them and they were new again. At that time the cabinets only came in white but while spray painting if you wanted another color you could have it by spray painting it in whatever color you wanted. They were the ideal cabinet for your kitchen, as they were affordable, easy to care for, economical and they looked good.


The saying is that everything old is new again and that can be said of the metal kitchen cabinets as homeowners today are looking to include them in their modern kitchens. The kitchens in the style of the 1950's are especially popular again as more retro kitchens are being designed into newly built or newly renovated homes. The retro kitchen incorporates everything that was stylish and modern in the kitchen of the 1950's with today's upgrades being included. The cabinets were white enameled metal with white enameled shelves. They were hung very much in the same configurations used in today's modern kitchen. The lines were clean looking and because they were white made the kitchens look light and bright. The retro kitchen cabinets said "this is a working place" where today's wood kitchen cabinets say "this is a cozy place to sit and talk."
It is not just with the retro kitchen's resurgence that metal kitchen cabinets are back in style in many newer homes, but metal cabinets are definitely back again. To have metal cabinets in your kitchen you can get them in stainless steel to match your appliances, you can get them in color or, if you prefer you can capture the look of the kitchen of the 50's. Whatever your choice metal cabinets are still affordable and easy to maintain, pretty much as they were in the days gone by.
