#Build Organized Lower Cabinet Rollouts for Increased Kitchen Storage

Overview

Get more storage space—without remodeling

Lower cabinets offer the biggest storage spaces in most kitchens. But according to kitchen designers, the back half of this space is usually wasted—it's packed with long-forgotten junk or left unused because stored items are out of view and hard to reach. Rollout bins let you see and use the whole space.

If you're tired of digging through cans and boxes to find a jar of tomato sauce hidden at the back of the cabinet, these rollout bins might be just the ticket. You can size them to fit inside any lower cabinet and customize them to suit the items you want to store.

This article will show you how to build them. The bins are simply plywood boxes with adjustable shelves—very easy to build. Sizing the boxes and mounting them on drawer slides can be tricky, but we've worked out techniques that make those steps nearly foolproof.

Money, time and tools

All the materials for these three rollouts were less than half the cost of three manufactured rollouts—a healthy savings.

You don't need advanced cabinet building skills or tools to make your own rollouts—the joinery and assembly are simple. But a table saw is almost mandatory for fast, accurate, good-looking results. And we recommend a pneumatic brad nailer, although you can certainly hand-nail or screw the parts together. Ordinarily, the side-mount drawer slides are tricky to install, but we make even that step foolproof, so don't let that part intimidate you. You'll be surprised how fast you can build yourself a few rollouts. Put in a full day and you'll be loading them with groceries that evening.
