How to build shelving and drawers in fridge space?

I am keen to convert our Fridge area into shelves with drawers. Currently the fridge does not fit there so I want to repurpose the space.
I have tried to find cabinet solutions which could just fit into the space but I haven't managed to. it would be helpful if someone can guide me on what materials would be required to fix in two shelves countertop and three drawers underneath I am happy for it to be left open.

if you can also let me know how long this project should take.

Hello @ishjadh

Can you please tell me the measurements of your refrigerator space, its length, width and height. Once we have this information we'll be able to offer recommendations on what cabinet will fit that space. We can also try to offer suggestions on what might work in that space.

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.

Hi @ishjadh,

It looks like you should be fine using 900mm cabinetry and shelving, though the skirting on the left of the alcove might need to be removed. I've created a layout below using our Kaboodle range and included the item list. You can choose your finish on the cabinetry, benchtop and handles.

Let me know what you think.

I recently had a similar situation where I couldn't find an existing cabinet to suit a space so made my own using melamine sheets. Not sure how handy you are but you may be able to do something similar if on a budget. I also wanted drawers with shelves above. I have more on this project here.

Hello @ishjadh

Here a few extra configurations you can do with the Kaboodle cabinetry. Please have a look and tell me what you think.

If you need further assistance, please let us know.

Hi Eric, thanks for sharing the Kabdoole kitchen options. I am actually after a fusion of these 2 designs.

Hi @ishjadh,

When you say a fusion of these two designs, which elements from each would you like to include? We can do some pretty clever things with the Kaboodle range, just need to know exactly what you're looking for.

Thanks Mitch, I am looking to get it done at a lower budget. 1200+ is a bit over. Thanks for looking into this and providing a response.

Thanks Mitch, looks like Kaboodle might be a bit over the budegt.
