Metal Shelf Bins
Anyone have any experience with a unit like these:

Get something that closes securely and latches, with a solid top. Stuff like this.

Re: Metal Shelf Bins
Those are nice, and EXPENSIVE, damn. I will built my own from wood before I spend that kind of coin.
They are nice though. |

Re: Metal Shelf Bins
I guess I could buy the bins and make a cabinet to slide them in. I would have to make some sort of door that shut or something.
Those bins are only 3 and change each. |

Re: Metal Shelf Bins
Go see the vehicle section. Someone has one of those behind the side door in his trailer. That way nothing can fall our. Brilliant.

Re: Metal Shelf Bins
American Van.com for straight backed open shelves. Or www.grainger.com. I have an open shelf in my trailer, held in place with an adjustable strap. I also put a cap on the bottom of the legs so the leg did not gouge the Rhino lining on the floor. I then used a stanley angle brace screwed to the legs & tge fkiir. that was so hte legs stayed in place and did not walk on the floor.
