I need my drawers to be at at least 6" tall instead of the approx. 2" that the metal is. Has anyone attached wood to the sides to make them higher.

The instructions only specify minimum heights for the front and back members of wood that you get to choose. Based upon reading those, plus observing how these were engineered, I don't think you'll have any problem making your front and back wood members 6" tall.

Have not done it, but don't see how it would be a problem. We use containers. You would have to avoid interfering with the slide mechanism when adding the fasteners for the wood.

You can skip adding the drawers as they are just bolted at the top to the metal cross bar, but they are a nice feature. We use them and put our tower on the floor to the left. The top is also large and could hold the your tower there as well.

Probably. There is a removal divider in the drawer. Removing the divider gives you roughly 13" x 8-3/4" and 2" high.

These drawer systems are not really meant to have heavy items stacked on top, they are not wood. Besides, you must be tall, if you think you would be able to see into the very top drawer, if stacked. I have several of these, side-by-side with a 12" w x 8' l board across the tops. This gives a solid surface to put things on and distributes the weight.

I did - works great. The top metal mesh plate of the large has a little lip around it that keeps the 'feet' of the unit above it in line. There are also two screws at the two rear 'posts' that you can screw down into that mesh plate so it doesn't tip forward when extending the drawer.

I measured the height of the frame and it looks to be 9 1/2 to 9 3/4 inches high. my drawer width is 12 inches but mine is letter sized, sounds like yours is legal. The length doesn't matter because you can break off the scored ends to the length you need.

Items could be up to 6 inches tall. The drawer itself is 5.75" tall, from the bottom of the drawer to the bottom of the top shelf is 6.125". The wasted space below the drawer is about 1 inch high. Hope this helps!

I am in the same situation. I need one too... these dimensions, to fit custom cabinetry that I do not want to modify. Wish I could help. I'll let you know if I find any options with the same dimensions. Please do the same for me.

The height of the drawers are 1.5", so these will be a little too small for for your needs. The larger version of this has drawers that are 2 inches deep -- 1012424 Large Drawer Cabinet. They are well made, sturdy, and will last for a very long time. Hope that helps.

We installed these specifically because the counter was low and provided an updated look so we didn't have to go through the trouble and expense to replace the cabinet. We don't live at that property so I can't tell you the exact height but I would say it is 6" at a minimum and probably 2" higher on the sides. If you have a higher than standard cabinet top you may want to stick with a recessed sink although these are nice quality and very attractive.

The stated dimensions on the drawers must be outside dimensions. The inside dimensions are appx 6 1/4 x 6 1/8. So I am afraid you may be out of luck!

It's pretty low to the ground. I bought a few storage bins, the ones made to store under beds and furniture, and they won't fit. I was pretty bummed out. The legs are about 5.5 feet apart but I don't think your drawers will fit.

on the models with drawers I have 3 1/4" at maximumthere are several lil leg extenders to use. You could use some from another kit if necessary.Good Luck!

You would have to remove the legs and mounts, and the drawers and slides to get a flat surface underneath, If you wanted to raise it approx 3" with some sort of shorter legs, you could easily remove the legs and leave the rest intact

they have no way to fasten together, but I HAVE taped them together with clear packing tape. I would only stack 2 high though, and definitely put heavier things in the bottom drawers, not in the uppermost drawers. I keep jewelry making supplies in them.

You will need 1/2 inch of space on each side. They cannot be mounted under the drawer

I raised my bench about 3/8" (using the adjustable feet), which brings the bottom of the drawers to 30.5" above the floor. (This puts the top of the wood table 37.5" above the floor) Hope this helps you!
