Cabinet

A cabinet is usually a box-shaped furniture, either standing alone as a piece of furniture or built into or attached to a wall such as a medicine cabinet typically made of wood but now often made of synthetic materials, and used for storage of miscellaneous items.

Cabinets usually have one or more doors on the front that are mounted with door hardware and occasionally a lock; they may also contain drawers. Short cabinets often have a finished surface on top that can be used for display, or as a working surface such as the countertops found in kitchens.

A cabinet intended for clothing storage is usually called a wardrobe or an armoire or a closet if built-in. In previous centuries, such a cabinet was also known as a linen-press. Plastic garden furniture is naturally waterproof. However, rain water will collect at the back of chairs and in nooks and crannies.

 As such, a surprising amount of dirt can form. In British usage, a wardrobe occasionally because of the oak wood used in its construction. In India, a cabinet is often referred to as an Almery. The materials used to manufacture modern patio furniture include stones, metals, vinyl, plastics, resins, glass, and treated woods.
