The Simple Trending Expandable Metal Mesh Organizer features an industrial aesthetic with a breathable steel design. This 8-piece set is modular, allowing you to arrange the sections to fit the specific dimensions of your kitchen drawers. The mesh construction is helpful for preventing the buildup of dust or fine spice particles, as debris can fall through the holes rather than sitting on the surface with your jars.
The frame is built from low-carbon steel with a protective spray coating. Practical observations suggest that because the sliding expansion mechanism is metal-on-metal, it is best to set the desired width once and leave it in place to protect the finish. For drawers with delicate interiors, such as painted wood or soft laminate, using a thin liner underneath the metal feet will help prevent surface scratches.
Specifications indicate the rack has a step height of approximately 2 inches. When standard 4oz jars are placed on these steps, the total height may exceed the clearance of very shallow drawers. A minimum drawer depth of 3.25 inches is recommended for smooth operation. While the mesh is sturdy, it may show slight flexibility if loaded exclusively with heavy glass containers; distributing weight evenly across the tiers will help maintain the unit's shape.
If you are looking for a similar tiered look but in a more lightweight, transparent material, the 4-tier clear acrylic set offers high visibility without the use of metal mesh.
This modular set is one of many specialized options available in our drawer spice inserts section.
