Measuring for Sliding Shelves

How to Measure

To determine the correct size of Pull Out Shelves to order, simply open the cabinet door and measure the width of the opening as shown below.

Example:

Example of How To Measure

If W = 17-1/4" you would order a Sliding Shelf to fit an opening 17-1/16" to 18" , then type in 17-1/4".

Do not make allowances, because we will make allowances so your new Sliding Shelf will fit. If we both make allowances, your new shelf will be too small.

Your Sliding Shelf will be 22" front-to-back. If you need a different length, see Custom Orders, above.

Don't forget to watch out for protruding hinges

The photos at the right show the protruding hinges we are talking about. Also, the door never actually clears the cabinet opening. Measure from the hinge to the cabinet wall on the other side (or hinge-to-hinge for a double door cabinet) for the bottom Pull Out Shelf, from door to door for a Pull Out Shelf attached to the existing shelf above, and from wall-to-wall if you're going to remove the existing shelf.. Be sure to tell us it's European cabinetry.
