Love your stand mixer but dread getting it out of the cabinet? These heavy appliances are great for mixing dough and whipping up something delicious, but moving them onto the counter can be a chore. For many people, baking starts with asking someone else to get the mixer out.
For this custom pull-out shelf installation in Dallas, TX, we created a more convenient way to store and access that heavy mixer.
The cabinet’s existing top drawer meant a mixer lift wasn’t an option. Instead, we placed the mixer on the upper rollout shelf. The homeowner can now slide the shelf forward, bringing the mixer out of the cabinet and within easier reach before lifting it onto the counter.
The weight hasn’t changed. The access has. Instead of bending and reaching deep into the cabinet, the homeowner can stand closer, establish a secure grip, and keep the mixer nearer their body. This allows for a more stable, controlled lifting position. The mixer still requires a manual lift, but the upper rollout provides a higher, more accessible starting point.
A second rollout below provides accessible storage for other kitchen items, while the existing top drawer stays in place. These custom pull-out shelves make the cabinet more useful without replacing the cabinetry.
If the thought of hauling out your mixer keeps you from using it, better access can make a welcome difference. Your kitchen should make baking more enjoyable—from getting the mixer out to putting it away.
