Wire mesh in kitchen cabinetry gives the cabinet the perfect blend of functionality with a look of style. Indeed, the picture you shared shows that wire mesh functions great inside the kitchen cabinet to make it look contemporary yet ageless. The mesh design ensures clear visibility and ventilation, making it a great choice for cabinets stacked up with items such as fruits and vegetables or even fine china that needs circulation of air. This not only improves the look of the kitchen but also adds a little functionality by keeping its contents cool and at hand.
The rich walnut cabinetry in a Green Lake, Wisconsin home combines with Banker Wire's S-16 Bronze woven wire mesh. The bronze wire mesh has been finished to a US10B to give it an appearance of dark bronze. This finish matches the cabinet hardware. This client applied the wire mesh directly to the existing wood panels of the cabinetry. The overall impression is of the wire mesh in a woven texture, rather than displaying what is inside the cabinet. The S-16 architectural wire mesh pattern is ideally suited for projects constructed of lower tensile materials including copper, bronze, and brass. The faceted profile of the wire will reflect light at varying angles at different times of day. The standard finish for the S-16 pattern is "Bare" unlacquered bronze, brass or copper. There are quite a few secondary finishes available that will quote enhance this woven wire characteristic without masking it.
Further, the wire mesh is a quite durability material that is very easy to care for; hence, suitable for kitchen cabinetry. It resists the wear and tear, is easy to clean, and neither warps nor cracks like many other materials. This makes the cabinets durable and also able to retain their original appearance and state of functionality over a long period of time. Besides, it is common for wire mesh cabinets to be made from stainless steel or aluminum materials, which are resistant to rust and corrosion; therefore, the cabinets will be kept in mint conditions even in the higher moisture in a kitchen environment.
