Will it work?Idea for making my own rollout pantry using metal utility cart with wheels?


We are ordering new kitchen cabinets and I need pantry space. I love the expensive rollout pantries that are installed in tall pantry cabinets and then a cabinet front is attached. The cabinets we are ordering will probably have front faces on them, rather than frameless. I'm thinking of buying a utility shelf i saw at Sams and adding metal railing so food won't fall off shelves. Then I could hide it in a cabinet in which I have cut the bottom out of. I could then glue the toekick and the front cabinet door panel to it. Then I can slide it out. I am trying to avoid paying hundreds of dollars for one. Your thoughts? Has anyone done anything like this?

Interesting solution - Sounds like something I'd come up with. I love a person with lots of frugal ideas. Try it and see.

Tips to Organize Your Kitchen on a Budget

Organizing your kitchen does not have to be expensive. We have all seen those wonderful makeover shows where teams of professionals with a budget written by advertising agencies redo every room of the house. The results are usually stunning, but the price tag is a real stopper. You do not have to spend a fortune to get your kitchen organized, though. Here are seven tips to get your kitchen organized on a budget.

1. Start with an honest assessment of your space, your needs and your clutter.

Before you begin purchasing expensive organizers, sit down and make a plan. Figure out what you need, what you do not and what you can do better. This is where you sort through the appliances present in your kitchen or tucked under the counter and decide which of them you really need. Can you do without that waffle iron you have used once in six years? Does the blender really need to be sitting on the counter? How many pots and pans do you really need to keep?

2. Organize your pantry with racks and steps.

If your pantry shelves are deep, it is easy to forget what is hiding behind the cans of stewed tomatoes. Invest in some inexpensive adjustable styrene step shelves. The plastic steps turn one flat, deep shelf into a tiered shelf that allows items in the back to be equally as visible as those located in the front of the shelf. While you are at it, invest in some hanging racks of the type that slide onto the shelf above. They make good use of the lost space beneath each shelf for storing small items like spice jars and toothpick boxes. Shelves and racks help create an organized area, which allows you to carefully store related products.

3. Organize your counters with mug trees, racks and mini-shelves.

Stackable solutions allow you to store much more on your counter without worrying about wasted space. A mug tree is an excellent product for organizing coffee mugs. A mug tree fits in the corner of your counter and holds several mugs. This serves an important purpose of providing you with an organizational product that makes it easy to retrieve the mug that you want.

4. Organize your food storage with inexpensive storage containers.

Toss out all those margarine tubs and Cool Whip containers and invest in a real food storage system. The Freshvac Plus collections of storage containers include either square or rectangular containers or a crisper to keep your produce and leftovers fresh longer. You can save money for your budget by using containers that keep your food fresh.

5. Organize your refrigerator with storage containers and shelves.

One of the most budget-friendly purchases you can make is a set of Green Bags – the wonder reusable storage bags you have seen on TV. They have been proven to keep produce, meat and even bread fresh for longer so that you waste less and save money. You can save space in your refrigerator with a 2-tier can carousel that stores up to 13 cans of soda in just 9 inches of fridge shelf space.

6. Organize with unused space.

Most kitchens have a lot of wasted space that few people even consider. One of the least expensive and easiest ways to add an entire mini-pantry to your kitchen is with a pantry door shelf. The pantry door shelf turns the back of any door into a full set of eight, adjustable shelves that are deep enough to hold canned goods, cereal boxes and tall bottles. Make better use of your kitchen doors with a door organizer. A door organizer is a canvas pocket organizer that hangs on your kitchen doorknob. This door organizer is designed to keep track of your keys, cell phone and other small items that can easily become lost.

7. Organize your food by expiration date.

When you put your groceries away, resist the temptation to place the new foods at the front of the shelf. Instead, store the newest food behind the older food. This allows your older food to be used first preventing these foods from spoiling. There are many products available to help keep track of your food expiration dates. The easiest way to keep track of this information is by remembering to rotate your inventory of food products.

Organizing your kitchen on a budget does not have to be a difficult task. There are many products available to help create a clutter free kitchen while saving money. Main tips for organizing your kitchen consist of finding a product to help consolidate your kitchen accessories while providing easy access when you need them. A few examples to consider are shelves, mug tree, cabinets and storage containers. These tips can help create an excellent experience in the kitchen because everything can be organized and easy to find.

Three strikes and your out.

by Wasting Time from on 2010-07-30
I ordered the product in February. The product came and Slide a Shelf made the wrong size. They were really rude when I told them they made the wrong size. They acted like it was my fault. Then it took forever for them to send the replacement. When they sent a second set of replacement shelves thy were all scratched and had stains all over them. They gave me more attitude, like it was my fault. After the fourth set, I finally am satisfied. The product is good, but the customer service is horrible. If you have lots of patience, go with them, otherwise avoid them at all cost.
