Convert Kitchen Cabinet To File Drawer

A terrible messy lower cabinet that seems to just fill to the brim with everything.

Convert kitchen cabinet to file drawer.

The 2 1 2inch divider was. We all have this. Since the hole in my cabinet was actually a little wider than the height of the doors i wanted to be able to re use the center frame piece to build out the cabinet frame to the correct width. We can fix this.

Use any dresser that has drawers tall enough to accommodate the length and width of the desired file folder size. Remove the shelf inside the kitchen cabinet if it has one and install the kit hardware which mounts to. Folders come in legal or standard 8 1 2 inch by 11 inch sizes. My wife and i loved the other project we did this one that i decided to expend it to other parts of the kitchen.

Allow for the addition of a hardware suspension frame about 2 inches around the inside perimeter of the drawer. Kitchen desks kitchen office big kitchen office cabinets base cabinets filing cabinets kitchen cabinets cupboards kitchen backsplash. As one of my customers put it it brings the contents of the cabinet to you instead of you having to go into the cabinet and scrounge around for them it s relatively easy to convert a cabinet from doors to drawers. Remove the drawers from a dresser.

In this project we will be replacing existing lower cabinets with drawers start by taking off the doors and the divider. A sturdy drawer on full extension slides gives you access to the cabinet s contents with a simple pull of the handles.
