Before the early 1970s, many medicine cabinets featured a hidden slot designed for disposing of used razor blades, allowing them to drop directly into the space inside the bathroom wall.
The design was primarily driven by convenience and safety. Thin steel razor blades were extremely sharp and posed a risk to anyone handling household trash, especially during a time when garbage was often burned, buried, or manually collected.
Because the empty space inside bathroom walls was considered a permanent place where the blades could remain undisturbed, manufacturers turned wall cavities into built-in disposal compartments. It was a simple and inexpensive solution that became common in millions of homes until improved waste systems and changing construction practices eventually made the slots unnecessary.
