Drawer under Refrigerator

I have a new drawer! My husband removed the face plate under the refrigerator, cut the bottom rail in half. It now measures 1 1/2 inches instead of three. He made a 5 1/2 inch deep drawer to fit the opening using full extention drawer guides. I put my light weight items in the drawer since it is so big. Love the extra drawer space. Pathfinder

Great Job,
I was able to put a drop down door on ours. We now store the vacuum attachments there.

Looks great. Where did you find a handle to match all the others?

We did the drop down, but I can't remember what we stored in there?

Nice job!!! We made ours into a drop down door and manufactured a wine rack which holds/stores 7 bottles. Hey, it's enough for one night at least

Great job! Wish I was that good at building things. Can't never have too much storage space.

That stupid drawer under the refrig (we have a 2955RL) has given us soooo much trouble. First time the dealer had to give us a whole new drawer because the cheap thing fell apart. DH had to reinstall the sliders because the dealer had to order a new one and it didn't line up. He has had to repair different parts of it 2 other times. He finally took everything apart and installed L brackets to keep everything together and added a 2nd and stronger magnet to keep it from opening during travel. I truly doubt we will have to repair it again, but I like the drop down faceplate idea.
