Very small laundry reno ideas

[danij]

Hi All, we have a very small laundry that needs to be changed. At the moment its hard to even fit in it to do the laundry. The useable area is really only 1600mm x 1600mm as the internal and external doors take up one end. I was thinking the cupboard would come out for sure (to give dimensions above). current appliances are new and will be staying, top loader needs about 700mm wide, dryer is 600mm wide. Any layout ideas would be appreciated. its so hard to visualise how everything will fit! thanks!

Hi Danji

Similar issue here (my wife) until I mounted the dryer upside down (do dryer manufacturers still allow this?)

Got some dimensions for us? I'm looking at the back wall. Maybe a small cupboard mounted on the wall to the right of my proposed dryer position?

Cheers

Graeme.

thanks @Noyade, this is i think the only layout that will work easily . as one of the others suggested i had considered changing the door to a slider, but that just involves a bit more work.

our dryer can go upside down so that helps! i was thinking i might see if i can put a fold up/down bench so if i need extra benchspace but can then fold away out of the way.
