"Parks recommends installing drawers in your toe kick boards - which is the space between your cabinet drawers and the floor. It's an underutilized space in the kitchen for most people, but renovating it and adding pull-out drawers opens up a unique opportunity and spot for your kitchen essentials. In an exclusive interview with Tasting Table, Parks said: "They're perfect for storing items you don't use daily and don't want taking up space in your main drawers, but still want easy access to.""
"There are many important considerations to make when deciding if adding toe kick board drawers is right for you and your space. For one, these drawers are installed on the bottom of your cabinets, so those with limited mobility or who cannot bend down well may not be able to make use of them. Their height is typically between 3 and 4 inches, meaning that large items and awkwardly shaped pans will need to be stored elsewhere."
Install drawers in toe kick boards, the space between cabinet bases and the floor, to add concealed pull-out storage for kitchen essentials and infrequently used items. Toe kick drawers blend seamlessly with cabinets and can include a top step to provide a standing platform while working. Typical drawer height is 3 to 4 inches, so bulky or awkwardly shaped pans require alternative storage. These drawers can be added to premade or custom cabinetry, but professional installation may be necessary to achieve correct dimensions and smooth operation. Limited mobility or difficulty bending can make toe kick drawers hard to access.
