Skinny cabinets..
 
We have a Ruby model Patio Villa. Oddly enough, there are only three very thin lower kitchen cabinets. They are only 12 inches wide and the inside width of the drawers is 8 inches wide. The cabinets are very thin and I am trying to figure out the most efficient way to use this challenging space. Has anyone found any products that helped maximize the space? I am especially interested in narrow trays for utensils and pull out shelves for the bottom. If you've dealt with this, your advice would be much appreciated.

Spices, tall goblets, a rack that holds cans.

Try the Container Store http s://www.containerstore.com/welcome.htm for ideas.

A slide out shelf might be helpful too.

Put lots of carbs into those cabinets and fatten them up.

This reminds me of the nightmare when I replaced our refrigerator. The wall wasn’t square which caused my refrigerator to come halt half way in the space between wall and cabinet. I had to remove the counter top between this stove and refrigerator cut 1 1/2 off at slant, replace the cabinet with narrower one to get the refrigerator to fit.

If the cabinets are next to each other, perhaps you could buy a new larger door and have the small cabinets modified to 2 larger cabinets. If cabinets are separate, you might try calling the manufacturer to see if they have a front panel with a wider opening, then have a carpenter install these and wider drawers, etc. I did something like that up north.

Unfortunately these cabinets are separate from one another.If they were side by side,it's be an easier fix..

I did get the name of the cabinet company and will contact them for possible solutions.
