Whether it’s blind cabinets, high cabinets or piped base cabinets, the Rev-A-Shelf organizer doesn’t matter.
Organizing your IKEA kitchen cabinets and drawers is extremely difficult without throwing in any curveballs. Kitchen design introduces curveballs such as corners, pipes, vents, and unreachable spaces you don’t want to waste.
To get the most out of your kitchen storage, you’ll need to find ways to avoid plumbing, blind corners, and tall cabinets. One of the benefits of choosing a professional kitchen he designer rather than an IKEA planner is that the expert knows the best products to address these complex design challenges.
Our designers know that these in-house solutions are rarely offered by IKEA. Rev-A-Shelf is the go-to company when creating interior organizational designs for kitchens and other areas of the home.

let’s start
The Rev-A-Shelf Organizer recognizes the limitations of kitchen organizers and improves them
We always recommend the Rev-A-Shelf (RAS) product as we only do cabinet organization in our company. RAS is focused on helping homeowners save space, create maintainable solutions, and make what’s inside their homes accessible.
Below are some ways IKD design with Rev-A-Shelf products can transform the functionality of IKEA kitchens and make spaces more accessible.
- storage under sink
Navigating under-sink storage is often difficult. Plumbing usually results in wasted space in the middle of the cabinet, and access to what can be stored is never easy. We don’t want the water pipe to be shoved or pushed aside every time you need extra paper towels. We would like you to install the Rev-A-Shelf organizer.Rev-A-Shelf’s under-sink solutions include cabinet door and drawer storage that not only looks great, but also greatly reduces frustration. One product we always recommend is the Polymer Drip Tray (4SBSU-15). It doesn’t help you organize your items, but it can protect them from water damage. Leaks happen, but this drip tray drains water out of the cabinet and out of storage, letting you know there’s a problem.
Designed with Rev-A-Shelf’s two U-Shaped Drawer Shelf options, Wire Bottom Organizer (5786-30CR) and Solid Bottom Organizer (5386-33BCSCFL-FOG). Available in multiple sizes and finishes. The best part is that you can stack them to create two tiers of accessible storage instead of just one.
“We have a water filtration system under our kitchen sink, but it’s hard to get around. My husband and I turned to IKD for a solution, with door storage on one side and two shelves on the other. We designed a plan with pull-out organizers and a tip-out tray on top.They helped us to have as much storage space as possible under the sink.” – Lenore, IKD customer
- corner base cabinet
IKD prefers to design IKEA kitchens linearly to avoid corner cabinet issues, but that’s not always possible. So are you destined to dig into the dark caverns of your corner cabinets every time you need a roasting pan? of course not. We, and Rev-A-Shelf, have a solution for making blind corners as accessible as any other cabinet. In my previous article, I talked about IKEA’s Lazy Susan, which doesn’t quite match the Rev-A-Shelf. IKEA has a fixed placement carousel with plastic discs for the shelves, but the Rev-A-Shelf has wooden discs (4WLS472-24-52) and easy-to-clean polymer discs (6472-28-11- ) are more robust and adjustable options. 52), or chrome wire disc (5272-32 CR).
“I was interested in Lazy Susan for blind corner cabinets, but they only had 12” doors. It was.” –Greg, IKD Customer
We don’t stop there. The Rev-A-Shelf organizer also has something called the Blind Corner Optimizer (5PSP-15-CR). This wireframe organizer comes with 4-6 shelves to give you access to every square inch of available space in your cabinet. With a load capacity of 15 lbs for each shelf, the optimizer fits most 48″ blind corner cabinets. Optimizer is his IKD designer favorite.
- Pull-down Rev-A-Shelf organizer
One of IKD’s customers wanted a Rev-A-Shelf everywhere and joined IKEA’s kitchen design process. We especially liked the Rev-A-Shelf pull down shelving system. She was more excited to receive the in-house organization design than the cabinet design.
“Patricia wanted to find this Rev-A-Shelf product for herself and incorporate it into her IKEA kitchen design. You can pull it down to a level.I put it on the edge of the cabinet where I have enough space to work.” –Meyer, IKD Designer
They come in chrome wire (5PD-24CRN) or solid bottom (5PD-24FOG) and fit 21″ or 33″ wide wall cabinets. If you’re short, handicapped, or too lazy to drag out a step stool to access upper cabinets, these organizers are your savior. With a load capacity of up to 26 lbs, it is ideal for cabinets on open counter spaces or cabinets on refrigerators.
Bonus: The Rev-A-Shelf isn’t just for the kitchen.
The kitchen isn’t the only area that needs extra help between plumbing and available storage. We also designed her Rev-A-Shelf U-shaped drawer shelf for the vanity. The Maple Bottom Mounted U Shaped Basin Sink Base Drawer (486-30VSBSC-BM-1) has slots for everything from small trash cans and spare toilet rolls to cosmetics and hair products. Maximize your vanity space with the L-shaped option (441-12VSBSC-1).
The IKEA closet design also uses the Rev-A-Shelf solution. The Pull Down Closet Rod (CPDR-1826 and CPDRSL-48SC) is a great solution for people with disabilities, allowing people with very high ceilings to utilize otherwise inaccessible spaces. Use the Gildeware Valet Hanger Pullout (GLD-W14-BC-5) to take advantage of the tight spaces in your closet.
Rev-A-Shelf and IKEA are the ideal kitchen design team
IKD designers know how to design functional and attractive storage. If you are building a new IKEA kitchen, bathroom or closet, choose IKEA for the SEKTION cabinets and MAXIMERA drawers. However, design with the Rev-A-Shelf for an accessible organizational solution.
