Many modern kitchens have small gaps between cabinets and appliances that look like a total waste of space. These tiny openings are often only three to six inches wide. They usually just collect dust or dropped silverware. Designers once considered these areas to be empty zones that served no real purpose in a home. However new kitchen engineering has introduced narrow filler pull outs that turn these spots into useful storage space. These slim units look like a simple piece of wood when they are closed. When you pull on the front handle the unit glides out to reveal several layers of vertical shelves for your household items.
The technology used in these narrow cabinets is quite strong and built to handle heavy weight. High quality models use full extension slides that allow the shelves to move smoothly. You can easily store heavy glass bottles of oil or large cans of food on these sturdy metal racks. Most designs allow you to adjust the height of the shelves to fit your specific needs. This makes the narrow cabinet a perfect place for a spice collection. You can even use it for vertical storage for baking sheets. Using this small space helps to clear off your counters and makes it easier to keep your kitchen organized.
