Need the narrowest bathroom cabinet!

Due to the configuration of my new bathroom, I need to find a bathroom cabinet or shelving unit that is max 27 x 27 (height doesn’t matter). It needs to cover some pipe work that we need to retain access to, hence needs to ideally be a cupboard or shelves or combo.

Does anyone own anything similar with these dimensions or have any ideas where I can look? A few hours googling isn’t throwing up many options!

B and m did have a slimline unit, when I was looking.
Maybe refine your search to catch worlds such as ‘slimline’ or even ‘toilet roll storage’ on places such as amazon - the sizes might be more what your asking for?
(I’m assuming your measurements are cms).

Words not worlds. - the irony isn’t lost on me!
happy searching.

Yes they are cms, will have a look at B&M now, thanks! I was thinking maybe the cheaper end might be smaller (usually that’s annoying when you buy furniture and it turns out to be tiny but not in this case)!

Wayfair let you put in max sizes.

Actually, ignore that. I looked at the bottom, which says 24x27, but the top is 30??!!

I have that one on my list! It looks like it might work but needs some modification which I would rather avoid if at all possible!

IKEA Lillangen bathroom cabinet was pretty skinny, but I think it's been discontinued/renamed. Maybe worth checking eBay?

When we had this issue we went custom made from Etsy. There’s loads on Instagram who do it as well.

www.dunelm.com/product/siena-white-tallboy-1000096416 This one is 24x28

Agree re Etsy. We have a very slim wooden bathroom cupboard sourced on there which is fab. Would recommend.

27cm is v small - I bought a unit that was 30cm wide from Amazon and I think that’s about as small as they go! If you can avoid a mirrored door you might be able to trim a cabinet to fit (you can get ‘melamine’ tape to cover any raw edges from DIY shops

this is what I bought (it was vv cheap, about £15). This door is panelled but if you had a flat door you could trim it and then put in edging tape
