From a jumble of mismatched plastic containers to a topsy-turvy pile of pans, the contents of kitchen cabinets can quickly become disorganized. Kitchen cabinet organizers can help you return a sense of order. Use them to find your tools, dishes and food faster, and discover that you have storage space to spare.
Choosing Kitchen Cabinet Organizers
Cabinet organizers and pull-out shelves allow you to access your items easily and take advantage of all available space. Here are just some of the things you can store:
●
Dishes and Wine Glasses. Use wire kitchen cabinet organizers for plates to keep dishes upright for convenient access. Under-cabinet storage, like
hanging wine glass racks, set stemware upside-down to make use of vertical space and keep dust out.
●
Pots, Pans and Baking Items. Install shallow wooden box drawers in a base cabinet to stack your pots on their sides. Lid racks mounted on pull-out shelves make it easy to find the right size. Wire racks can store muffin tins, cutting boards and cookie sheets vertically.
●
Small Appliances. Shelf lifts are
pull-out cabinet organizers that store heavy appliances like mixers and food processors. They allow you to easily lift your appliance, such as a stand mixer, up and out of a cabinet to counter height. Kitchen cabinet drawers allow you to easily store and retrieve waffle-makers, juicers and slow cookers.
●
Kitchen Accessories. Keep dish towels and oven mitts within easy reach yet out of sight with a
cabinet door organizer. Stack plastic storage containers and matching lids in orderly piles with two-tiered pull-out racks.
●
Food Items and Cleaning Products. Two-tier cabinet dividers make good use of cabinet space, especially under the sink. Pull shallow wire drawers out to grab cleaning products quickly. Keep better tabs on what you have in your pantry with racks that slide out to reveal your cans and condiments.
Designate a tall bottom cabinet for a
pull-out trash can. It’s a great way to keep garbage out of sight and reduce odors.
Features to Consider
Look for a special coating on wire racks to prevent scratching and rattling, and opt for quiet drawer sliders. Anti-slip drawer liners will also help reduce noise. Look for organizers that maximize empty spaces. For example, tall, narrow pull-out cabinet organizers fill the area between base cabinets with hidden racks for spices. And make use of hard-to-reach corners with a three-tier pull-out wire organizer. It’s perfect for paper towels, cereal boxes or placemats.
