Couple Uses Home Depot Bins To Create Simple Blackstone Storage
Daily Meal • • technology
Key Points:
- A Blackstone griddle owner, Kendall Azevedo, demonstrated a simple and affordable DIY storage solution by attaching two pullout drawers under the griddle using household tools and supplies from Home Depot.
- The project involves removing and flipping the middle shelf upside down, installing soft-close drawer slides, and attaching plastic storage tubs as drawers, creating extra storage space without expensive modifications.
- Users should measure carefully as griddle sizes and drawer components vary, and be aware that such modifications may void warranties and do not protect against pests.
- Cosmetic improvements, like covering exposed screws with custom-cut sheet metal, can enhance the look and mimic a grill cabinet, with metal supplies available from specialty stores.
- Efficient organization inside the drawers is recommended, using dividers or custom-cut plywood guided by a parchment paper template to maximize storage for large grill tools.
