The IKEA "Alex" Paint Storage

Recommended Posts

Hi all

 

Like many, I have a large number and different varieties of paint and have always been frustrated with trying to find the ideal way to store them. There are many different laser cut "rack" products or alternatively homebrew shelves. After getting fed up with lots of these fiddly racks, that tend to be bespoke to a bottle size, I was on the hunt for something better and then stumbled across a YouTube, which for me is a godsend.

 

Its a simple hop up of an IKEA Alex Drawer unit. Simple to do with some lengths of right angle trim. With six drawers it has oodles of capacity for bottles of all sizes.

 

It sits snuggly under the bench and keeps the paint dust free and out of the light.

 

Paint organised by type and easily able to read the labels to find the colour i need.

 

Highly recommended

That’s great, thanks for sharing. Is it the 67 x 66  one, whey seem to have a few variants and that looks ideal?
