Refurbishing a camper can be a fun DIY project, but including an ample amount of storage can be a challenge. In a small space, custom cabinets are the best option. Custom cabinets can be made to any specification and in multiple color options which works great for small projects like refurbished campers. Designing proper storage for your camper will provide years of fun and proper item storage. 

1- Fold Out Cabinets

The best cabinet options for campers are ones that can be concealed. Fold-out cabinets can be tucked away when not in use to give you more space to move around. Folding cabinets can be put away when you are driving the camper when you are storing it for a long period, or during meals or hanging out in the camper. 

2- Hidden Storage

In addition to cabinets, there are other hidden storage options for campers that work just as well. Cabinets with hidden compartments, storage boxes underneath a couch, or a cabinet with a discrete door will all keep items hidden from the naked eye. These hidden options are great for valuables, passports, emergency equipment, money, or firearms that may be needed when traveling. 

3- Corner Shelving Or Angled Cabinets

Since custom cabinets are made to order, they can be designed at sharp angles and made to fit in small spaces. Custom cabinets are great for campers because they can be built around existing features to maximize even the most awkward spaces. Floating shelves, corner cabinets, overhead cabinets, or cabinets around windows are all great options for small spaces.

4- Soft-Close Hinges

When it comes to modern cabinets, any accessory that can help them to last longer is a smart investment. Soft-close hinges are a great way to keep your cabinets from slamming which causes damage to the doors. These hinges can also protect the cabinets from unnecessary opening and closing while hauling the camper. Hinges are easy to install and don’t add too much cost to your overall cabinet project.

5- Hidden Lighting Options

Integrated lighting is another way to save space in a small renovation. Under cabinet lighting, interior LED lights, and smart controlled lighting are all options when creating custom cabinets with a designer. Having the lighting mechanisms attached to the cabinets saves space on walls and the ceiling. 

6- Convertable Cabinets

Custom cabinets can be designed to serve multiple functions. In a camper or tiny home, cabinets can double as seating or fold down to create counter space. Creating multifunctional areas is the best way to ensure your small space is functional. By working with a custom cabinet designer, you will ensure that these convertible cabinets are constructed properly and able to serve each purpose. 

7- Custom Finishes

Adding some character to your cabinets is still possible when you have a smaller space. Brushed finishes, and painted or stained cabinets can all add to the ambiance of your camper. Since cabinets can be completely customizable, you can choose any option imaginable for the face and hardware of the cabinet.

Our modern world is filled with technology. Some that help us complete tasks faster and some that is for pure entertainment. Technological advances don’t seem to be slowing down anytime soon, which makes them the perfect way to elevate your home. 

Implementing technology in custom cabinets will help streamline hosting or daily cleaning tasks. Modern upgrades will increase the resale value of your home and make it more appealing for future buyers. Implementing technology in your storage areas makes it easier to access your items, maintain the quality of your cabinets, and make your cabinets unique. 

1- Smart Lighting

One of the easiest ways to include technology in your cabinet design is to include under-cabinet lighting. Smart lighting can turn on with motion or be controlled from your phone. The proper lighting makes the space safer to navigate and find items faster. Smart lighting can also be adjusted in intensity or color to help enhance aesthetics as well. 

Installing LED strip lights can be done during cabinet installation or after. Many homeowners can install the strips for cheaper and achieve the same effects.

Motion lights can be installed on the lower cabinets to activate when you walk into the space or inside cabinet doors so they flick on when the door is opened. 

2- Automated Storage

Some options for automated storage include rotated lazy susans, automatic drawers, rising shelves, motorized shoe racks, and touchless close mechanisms. These can limit wear on the cabinets from opening and closing them. Rising shelving can be helpful for older homeowners or those with disabilities to be able to complete daily activities. Automated options add a touch of luxury to your home and can make it more enjoyable. 

3- Built-in Charging Stations

Cabinets, kitchen islands, and pantries can have USB and USBC plugs to make charging devices more convenient. Cabinets with hidden ports can make appliance charging and usage more convenient. Wireless charging docks could also be added to shelving in common areas to limit unsightly cords.

4- Speakers

Modern people are very connected to technology and entertainment. Including speakers in your cabinet or storage design can make using the space more enjoyable. Hidden speakers help your space look more tidy, but still allow you to connect your favorite podcast, playlist, or instructional video. Speakers will help make cooking or cleaning feel like less of a chore.

5- Soft Close Hinges

Modern drawers, cabinets, and pantry doors can now have soft-close hinges to limit damage to them. Slamming cabinet doors is not only loud but can lead to premature wear and tear. Soft close hinges have a spring-type closure that will close the storage option quietly and gently. 

This technology is easily integrated into your cabinets and is hidden from view most of the time. The hinges look just like any other option that would come with a base cabinet design. 

6- Integrate Appliances

Smart appliances are a great way to elevate your kitchen. Smart ovens, refrigerators, dishwashers, and more can be integrated into the cabinets to create a sleek look. Remote control features or smartphone apps can help control the appliances for better energy efficiency. 

Smart appliances and built-in charging stations can also be connected together to keep your kitchen functional, especially during an event or holiday gathering.

7- Nanotechnology Coatings

While it’s not necessarily technology, having high-tech materials and finishes can make your space feel more futuristic. Nanotechnology coatings will make the surfaces resistant to fingerprints, smudges, and scratches. Having this finish limits wear and tear that could lead to costly repairs in the future. Coating your cabinets and doors will help them look pristine for longer.
