This will allow the pieces to be pulled together when you screw them up tight. I have been planning on doing the same thing, but my tallest pull out with be about 5 feet tall. Question 1 year ago.

The under stairs drawer kit games problem is, he wants me to write about bookshelves whereas I just want to persuade you to buy my book. Many thanks for coming back to me - The drawers will under stairs drawer kit games around 22" wide and 33" in depths, so I would imagine 18mm hardwood would be my best bet.

Step 5. I would say that one of the most important bits of this project is the frame for the runners to sit on. This will allow the drawer to run smoothly when sliding in and out.

Any movement in this frame will cause many issues for the smooth operation of the drawers. Step 6. Once the frame for the runners is complete you can begin to build the drawer itself. This should be quite straight forward and can be anything you like. For the shoe drawer I include one shelf and made sure there was a back panel to prevent shoes falling out. Remember to ensure the drawer is completely square and the dimensions measure the same at the front and back.

Any slight variation here is going to prevent the drawer from sliding in and out easily. Step 7. With regards to the runners, try something like these. I decided to get the soft close version and had to make sure that they could manage the weight of the drawer and the shoes. Check the load capacity before buying. Also check the length and extended length for the runner to make sure it will extend far enough for easy access.

Step 8. I fitted the runners to the frame first, then slid the drawer onto the runner and screwed in the from the side. Welcome back to Instagram.

And sharing the links to the latches and runners etc. I finished mine this weekend using this and it worked great! Still to paint it but the wife doesnt know what colour yet! Reply 6 days ago. Question 9 days ago. Hey, incredible video and guide, so helpful at the moment doing this for myself.

Any ideas? Not sure why my photo is upside down but you get the idea! Answer 9 days ago. My runners are fixed right to the edge flush with the surround, perhaps this could be the issue? How do you know how far to set the runners back if this is what I need to try? If my space is 80 cm deep what length runners would you recommend? Do you often open yours all the way up? Reply 2 months ago. If it was me I would go with a runner of around 80cm to make the most of the space.

You could get away with a little less providing you can still access the back of the drawer if its not fully extended. Mine open all the way up. Looks great!. How strong are those latches in pushing out the drawers, as my drawers are significantly heavier looking and wondered if those you used would be up to the job? Reply 5 months ago. They're pretty good. This is the best type of 'mechanical' latch I found. There are a lot of magnetic options out there that don't hold the drawers in very well.

If they didn't push the drawers out enough I was planning on using an additional spring at the back of the drawer to push them forwards. It was going to to be something like a 'unitstrut' back nut with the spring attached which I'd screw to the back of the drawer, but I never need to use them. Been building these however mine do not "pop" out and I think they need a handle.

Is there anything I could do to ease them sliding out as they are a bit stiff? Could it be the runners quality or is it more likely that they are not running parallel? Reply 8 months ago. More than likely they aren't parallel, level level with each other or level along their opening path or all of the above!. My top "bedroom" drawer had the same issue and took me half a day adjusting it. It was a nightmare. You can take measurements between them to check for them being parallel.

I found the best way was measure diagonally between front of one runner to the back of the other. If both measurements are equal you'll know they are parallel. Also use a a level to check they are the right height to each other and running out level. I used penny washers to pack them out when they needed it. Hope that helps! Hi, I am in the process of making this incredible project, I have now completed the base and now onto the the scary part!! I was wondering if you think a 12mm softwood would be strong enough for the draws?

Thank you. I think in general it will be OK. If they're sat on a strong base there is less force on them. You might have an issue with the wood splitting if you screw them together if the wood is thinner. Pilot holes for screws will be essential! Many thanks for coming back to me - The drawers will be around 22" wide and 33" in depths, so I would imagine 18mm hardwood would be my best bet.

Again, thank you, I hope to share images when completed. Question 1 year ago on Step 5. Your drawer slides. In my case, I have a depth of 33" from the back wall to the front of the upright Under Stairs Drawer Kit 600 2x4.

Are you installing a full length slide or a slide that is slightly shorter as an example, a 30" slide? Answer 10 months ago. Mine was slightly shorter but the drawer itself sat cut her back on the slides with a little overhang. Question 10 months ago on Step Could you go into more detail about the pvc angle? Perhaps a link or some additional source options. I'm nearly finished making this but need to trim out the openings and I'm not very skilled at drywall. Of course! Let me know where in the world are you based and I'll try and find some options available to you.

I have been planning on doing the same thing, but my tallest pull out with be about 5 feet tall. I did not know they made drawer guides that long. Question 1 year ago. Does anyone have an idea for how to add something to these stairs?

The left as you can see its going to be a mini bathroom, but on the right side I want to add some storage. I've seen various ideas for compartment under stairs but none for snail?

Im not sure pf the word in english but I mean the type of stairs that go up twisting stairs. Answer 1 year ago. My first thought was to 'finish' off the back of the stairs - close them up with Risers.

Then box in the space from the fifth? Now, you have a short wall to the left of the commode that you can put a door on to create a compartment.

If you continue the Risers all the way up, you will effectively add a unique 'wall' and ceiling to the spare? This should add little weight to the circular stairway. You might try contacting the MFG of your Staircase as they may well sell precisely fitted Risers the fit perfectly.
