I’ll let you in on a little secret…this is a hidden gem when it comes to in-cabinet storage accessories. We’re always focused on larger accessories like trash pull out storage or pull out baskets. Door storage however, is budget friendly and way easier to install.
What is cabinet door storage
Cabinet door storage mounts to the inside portion of your kitchen or vanity doors. This type of storage accessory mounts to the door with screws while some sit and hang directly on your door with no screws needed.
Tips on mounting cabinet door storage
Not all cabinet doors are the same. You may have a paneled cabinet door that isn’t flush or flat on the backside. This makes it a little tricky to mount anything to it.
If possible, when mounting, you’ll want to hit the “meat of the door”. This would be the thickest portion of the cabinet door which prevents screws from going through to the other side. This is often on the outside portions of the cabinet door.
Tips on “over-the-door” cabinet door storage
Over-the-door storage is exactly what it sounds like. These storage items simply hang on the top of the cabinet door and hang on the backside (or frontside) of the cabinet. These are designed for cabinet doors with thickness up to 3/4″ or 7/8″. If you want ideas for larger framed doors, there are unique products for that type of application.
Also, most brands use foam padding on the underneath side of the hooks that hang on the top of the cabinet door. This prevents the storage from scratching or damaging your nice cabinets.
If you plan to use a deep door storage accessory, be cautious and measure the width of your door. The deeper the storage goes back into the cabinet, the more room it needs to rotate out of the cabinet. You just don’t want to hit the opposite door one a double door cabinet.
