Provisions Kitchen Cabinet Organizers

Kitchen cabinets can quickly become a disorganized mess unless you have structured storage in place. Even if you have ample space, making the most of it requires planning. And well-designed organizers, like ClosetMaid’s new Provisions collection, can help keep everything where it belongs.

Quick Kitchen Storage Tips

Stop wasting time searching for lost lids and don’t buy pantry items you already have. These easy solutions will solve your kitchen challenges:

• Keep similar cookware, foods or small appliances together.
• Go vertical to maximize your cabinets’ capacity.
• Use pull-out organizers.

Use Zones in the Kitchen

Make cooking, baking and snacking easier on yourself (and the rest of your family). Sort through your cabinets, clear out anything you no longer need and then rearrange whatever’s left.

Do your best to group similar items together. Try to stow pots and pans in one or two cabinets near the stove. Put your coffee supplies near your coffeemaker. Store snacks where the kids can reach them (or store them in a high spot to avoid afterschool binge eating).

Cooking-related items should all go in the same cabinet. Shop the Provisions 14-inch Drawer.

Go Vertical

Most kitchen cabinets are taller than they are wide, but they’re not built to take advantage of the height. You can solve this issue with tiered organizers that allow you to stack items, without fear of causing an avalanche when you open the cabinet door.

Two levels of storage means twice the cabinet capacity. Shop Provisions Double-Tier Drawer.

Place larger items in the bottom section, like pots, and smaller utensils or implements, such as the coordinating lids, in the top section.

Install Pull-Out Organizers

Another way to maximize your kitchen cabinets – drawers and organizers that slide out.

Have you ever forgotten you had extra food supplies because they were hidden behind other cans and boxes? Or maybe you can’t reach far enough to get a heavy appliance out of the cabinet.

That’s where pull-out organizers come in handy. They give you easy access to your entire cabinet and allow you to see all its contents, even those shoved toward the rear.

A pull-out double-trash unit hides your garbage can and your recycling bin and glides forward easily, so daily use and emptying are easy. Buy it now.

You can also stow unsightly but necessary items, like the waste basket and recyclables container.

Kitchen Storage FAQs

Question: I have a lot of cutting boards and large bakeware that always falls over in the cabinet. What can I do to prevent this?

Answer: A pull-out organizer with sides can help contain taller kitchen items that can be awkward to store.

Q: How can I keep from losing the lids for my food containers?

A: While some people like to snap the lids onto their matching containers, others prefer to nest the containers to save space. If you’re short on room, stack the lids in a basket or bin in the same cabinet as their companions.

Q: What’s the best way to store cereal?

A: To keep it from going stale, either use a chip clip to close the plastic bag after each use or transfer the cereal to an airtight container.
