Easy and budget friendly DIY fix for those hard to see blind corner cabinets. This is a great solution for anyone looking to save money and access those hard to reach corners.

Great idea! It boggles the mind how these companies can charge such exorbitant prices for something so easily made. $400 for a pole and racks is obscene. Thanks for the great DIY idea.

This is the same solution I came up with! The addition of some vinyl garden boarder lattice around the back and on one side of the drawer in the back will allow you to keep items from falling behind it. You could also buy or make two drawers the same size and then connect them like bunk beds giving you full use of the height of the cabinet as well. Well done!

Great idea. However side mount slides are designed for vertical installation. They will not hold any significant weight when mounted horizontally. Two slides would probably be better for long term use. Also I would warn to not lean on the front drawer when extended as it would bend the slide and it will never work the same again. Good job on the video and your addressing a problem that haunts us all.

@@jenniferjahns4006 It's possible to buy ball bearing runners that can be fitted on the side OR on the bottom. Also, even with a few saucepans or skillets on the smaller drawer, they aren't going to be very heavy in total. Possibly if one had exclusively cast iron pots the weight might be an issue.

I have exactly the same blind corner, albeit with a wider door, and I've been pondering for weeks whether to get one of those swivelling pull-out shelves. But they are expensive. Your solution is a very good idea. I've used the fully extending ball bearing runners in ordinary cupboards so that I don't need to bend in order to get to the pots and pans, and I rate such runners very highly. The only modification I would make to your design would be to use two runners under the smaller drawer instead of one. I've lived in my house for 15 years and the blind corners have been almost inaccessible all that time!

I'm glad I found this. I am in the middle of building cabinets for my kitchen. Over all it is going good. I've been frustrated today by this corner cabinet I have. The area is too small for a reasonable lazy Susan, if I make it bigger I will not be able to center my sink over this window. Its unavoidable, it's just the way the wall works out. I would be happy to buy the expensive solutions but they don't look good to me and waste space. I like what you did. I can do it with what I have here. I am going to use your idea in my corner cabinet. I probably will assemble it with two shelves like you suggested. Thank you.

Great idea! You could still add another drawer on top if you place a similar blind drawer, assembly, add bracers at the height you want the drawer, then leverage the second shelf into place. If you screw the second drawer into the braces and it should be secure enough hold the drawer without tipping.

That's a much better solution to another one I saw. That one still had wasted space, cuz their pullout didn't go all the way back. I do believe using your method an upper shelf in the back can be added. Mount your base board using furring strips. Not sure if there's a way to add an upper shelf in the front. I'd sure try! My mom's kitchen has so much wasted space, it's pathetic. I'm looking for solutions. Thanks for a great video and tip!

My solution: I put items I rarely use (like crystal goblets) in a box that slides back in the corner much like your big slider. I have my Tupperware in another box that serves like your smaller slider right when you open the cabinet. Tupperware is great in the big box. Just slide it out, throw the Tupperware in, and slide it back in. Any kind of box or basket the width/depth of the space would work.
