Map daily reach
Mark proposed shelf heights on the wall and imagine retrieving the actual contents. Consider everyone who uses the bathroom. A layout convenient for one person may depend on another person handling every refill.
Group by frequency
Keep everyday supplies in the easiest positions and give occasional reserves a clearly identified home. High shelves should have a deliberate purpose rather than becoming an unplanned destination for every object without a place.
Check interior openings
A tall exterior does not mean every compartment accepts tall bottles. Review fixed and adjustable shelf locations, and leave enough space to grasp and remove the actual items you plan to keep.
Follow stability requirements
Read the exact model's assembly, anchoring and placement instructions. Confirm that the chosen location allows those requirements to be met; do not assume a small footprint makes a tall unit suitable anywhere.
Illustrative scenario: daily products occupy the cabinet's middle shelves while occasional paper supplies sit above. A shorter cabinet may be preferable if the upper compartments would otherwise remain inaccessible or collect unexplained overflow.
