Deadspace in kitchen cabinets...how do you use it?

[Barb D]

You know that dead space in the corners of cabinets where the cabinets from one wall go behind the intersecting ones? What do you do with that space? Anybody know of any sliding things that work well for getting to the stuff back there? I don't use it, just because it's such a pain to have to pull everything out to get to it. My lower cabinets have a rotating corner thing, but the upper ones don't. And I love my cabinet fronts, so I have no desire to rip anything out to replace it.

I need something for that too, currently at my house it is wasted cabinet space and unfortunately I need all the space that I can get!!

You can put in a lazy susan or something to that effect or just put stuff back there that you seldom use in the kitchen.

We have a trap door installed in the counter top in our deadspace between the run for the kitchen sink and the counter that ells off of it. Then out in the garage, there is a door about 4'x3' which opens into the garage. We have a 33 gallon garbage can inside this space. We drop the garbage from inside the kitchen through the trap door on the counter top and we don't have to lug garbage out until the garbage men come. Very handy. Just about that alone sold me on this house.

We have 4 corner cabinets and they all have lazy susans in them. I LOVE them.
