Not all drawers are the same. Whether flat, high, wide or narrow, with these tips and a few tried-and-tested organizing aids, you can easily keep any drawer tidy.
Drawer organizers and dividers
How to proceed
- Define the purpose of the drawer - if you don't define what belongs in the drawer, it can quickly become a dumping ground for all sorts of things and chaos is inevitable.
- Get an overview - lay everything out clearly and neatly in front of you
- Categorize - everything that has the same purpose is categorized into a group
- Sorting out - what is not needed, has multiple copies, is broken or does not belong in the drawer is sorted out
- Set layout & organize - organizing aids ensure that the different categories are separated from each other, that everything has a fixed place and that it stays tidy in the long term. Here are some of our favorite organizers for every type of drawer...
Wide drawers
The easiest solution for a wide drawer is to add one or two extendable drawer inserts. Our extendable drawer inserts TOWER pull-out drawer inserts from Yamazaki come in various designs and colors and can be assembled individually.
Narrow drawers
For narrow drawers, we recommend limiting the drawer to a single category, such as tea towels or wooden spoons. Our drawer dividers ECO and LINUS are the perfect helpers here. They take up little space and create categories quickly and easily.
Deep drawers
There are many deep and wide drawers, especially in the kitchen. These are perfect for cookware and baking dishes, but are usually too big for other items. Our tip? Divide and structure. Our large drawer dividers WOOD, WHITE, LINUS and storage container BINZ extra long fit perfectly here and bring structure and order to the usually chaotic Tupperware drawer.
Flat drawers
We describe a drawer as flat if it is less than 8 cm high. We find these drawers everywhere, often in desks but also in kitchens and bathrooms. Drawer inserts are a real game changer here. They are not particularly high and the different inserts can be customized in size and shape to suit the drawer and category. Our favorites here are CLARITY, LINUS and WHITE.
