How to Get 140% More Storage Under Your Sink

Most under-sink cabinets use less than half their actual capacity.

The space you're not using

Walk into most kitchens and the area under the sink looks the same: one flat shelf, a couple of bottles up front, and a whole lot of empty air above and around them. The pipes take up the middle of the cabinet, but they don't take up the whole cabinet — most of that space is just sitting there unused.

Why a flat shelf isn't enough

A single shelf only ever uses the floor of the cabinet. It ignores everything above it, which is usually the biggest part of the space. If you're storing tall items, they end up lying down or shoved in sideways, and if you're storing small items, they get lost in the gaps around them.

The fix: tiered pull-out shelving

Tansel's under-sink pull-out systems are tiered, built around your plumbing rather than over the top of it. By using the vertical space as well as the floor space, the same cabinet footprint suddenly holds a lot more — without you giving up an inch of kitchen.

What 140% more storage actually looks like

In practical terms, that's the difference between fitting two or three items up front and fitting your full set of cleaning products, spare bin liners, dish supplies and odds and ends — all visible, all reachable, none of it stacked on top of itself. It's the same cabinet. It just finally works the way you assumed it already did.

If under-sink storage has always felt like a losing battle, the issue probably isn't your kitchen — it's the shelf. Tansel's pull-out systems are designed specifically for this space and fitted with a lifetime warranty, whether you're installing it yourself or having it done for y
