Enhance Your Kitchen Remodel with Custom Slide-Out Shelves
At Harmony Home Concepts, we recently had the pleasure of helping Nancy and Steve transform their kitchen as part of a larger remodeling project. They loved the layout of their existing kitchen and didn’t want to replace the cabinets entirely. Instead, they wanted to make their storage more functional, organized, and easier to use—and that’s where our custom slide-out shelves came in.
If you’re remodeling your kitchen—or even just looking for smart ways to improve your current space—custom slide-out shelves offer a simple yet transformative upgrade. Whether you’re tired of bending and digging for pots and pans, or you’re dreaming of a more organized pantry, these solutions help you make the most of the space you already have.
Bringing Harmony to Every Cabinet
In this project, our team installed slide-out shelves in every lower cabinet throughout Nancy and Steve’s kitchen. No more crouching down to reach the back of a cabinet or pulling everything out just to grab one pan. Now, with a simple pull, everything slides smoothly into view. It’s an upgrade that doesn’t just improve function—it makes cooking and cleaning up so much easier.
Nancy shared, “I smile every time I go into the kitchen now.” That’s the kind of joy and ease we love bringing to our clients.
A Smarter Solution for Corner Cabinets
Like many homes, their kitchen had two corner lazy Susans—those spinning shelves that often waste space and make it hard to find what you need. We replaced each one with front-facing slide-outs, giving them three full-depth shelves in each corner cabinet. These slide-outs provided more usable square inches than the old pie-cut lazy Susans ever could.
The difference was so impressive that Nancy said, “We’ve had people come by and they’re amazed at how much space these corner cabinets have now.”
Maximizing Every Inch Under the Sink
Under the kitchen sink, we installed a custom slide-out that holds cleaning supplies and trash bins, making those tricky under-sink items easy to reach. No more digging behind pipes or knocking over bottles just to grab dish soap.
To keep countertops clutter-free, we also added tip-out trays in front of the sink—one on the left and one on the right. These slim trays are the perfect spot to tuck away sponges and scrubbers, keeping everything tidy while still within easy reach.
Custom Storage for Unique Spaces
Nancy and Steve’s built-in cooktop had open space beneath it, a spot that’s often overlooked or underutilized. We transformed that empty area into a divided bin to hold baking sheets, cutting boards, and trays vertically. Next to that, we added a full slide-out shelf and even squeezed in a narrow slide-out drawer across the top—proof that every inch matters when it comes to smart storage.
Full-Width Convenience in Every Cabinet
Another challenge was the cabinets with center stiles—those vertical dividers between the two doors. These stiles can limit the size of items you can store and make accessing the full width of the cabinet frustrating.
We solved this by relocating the stile to the left-hand door, opening up the full width of the cabinet for custom slide-out shelves. This gave Nancy and Steve uninterrupted, full-width access to every lower cabinet and even their tall pantry. Now their pantry has adjustable, full-width slide-outs that can be moved up or down to fit changing storage needs.
Steve was particularly thrilled with the added space, saying: “I finally have a place to put my big popcorn bowl!”
A Kitchen That Works for You
If you’re planning a kitchen remodel or just want to make your existing kitchen work better for you, custom slide-out shelves are a game-changer. They make accessing your cookware, pantry staples, and cleaning supplies effortless while making sure every inch of space is working for you.
Nancy also loved her new vertical spice racks, which were installed in the upper cabinets. She shared, “The vertical spice racks make it so much easier to find my spices.” This small but mighty feature brings organization to another level—no more digging through cluttered shelves looking for that one elusive jar of paprika!
