Project Information

I was strolling through Home Depot a while ago and saw a neat concept in their kitchen section for drawers. Having a small kitchen, we always need more space and I copied this idea from what I was at the Depot. I laid out the silverware design and built a sliding storage tray around what I needed. The tray slides on a couple of 20" full extension drawer slides for full access to both top and bottom. The only modification to the drawer was I had to cut out the back so the tray could slide freely.

Easy project, and my wife loves it. Bonus.

I saw the same thing last year and it's been on my to do list ever since. Maybe this year.
Nice job!

Nice idea…well HD's, but a very nice duplication. Is there a half back piece to serve as a backstop to prevent contents resting on the bottom of the drawer from sliding out?

Great idea! For our junk drawer I made a divider for the bottom and a simple box that slides freely on top. I like the use of the drawer glides. I might have to borrow that one.

Looks much better than the plastic one from bed bath and beyond we use!

Yeah Doug, I only cut out the back of the drawer necessary for the top to slide back. The remainder of the back is still in place to ensure I don't lose anything out of the drawer.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and I do believe I'll be joining the group of imitators for this idea !

My wife has been after me for something like this for years but I wasn't sure how to make it. Thanks much!
