The board folds flat, while narrow shelves hold often-used products within easy reach.

Consider sliding doors or bifold options to conserve square footage, especially if your laundry space is accessed frequently.

In place of cabinets, open shelving eliminates the need for even more door-swing space.

This ensures that the working space can be open without any intrusion into the flow of traffic.
