Sheet pan storage rack that’s just right for this slim spot

After years of using various sheet pan storage solutions, including the expandable pot lid rack, I came up with this idea to use up the dead space between my fridge and the wall.

With this GNEDBY sheet pan storage rack, I’ve freed up so much more space on my other shelving units now.

IKEA items used:
GNEDBY DVD/ CD shelving unit

Other materials:

Hacking a sheet pan storage unit:

First, remove the backing from two GNEDBY units.

Then, brace them together back to back with mending plates, each pair approximately 27″ from the top and bottom of the units.

Make sure the last GNEDBY is intact with its backing. And then attach it to the first two units to create a 3-unit deep GNEBY.

Adjust shelves to desired heights (the most time-consuming part of the hack but also the most fun).

Slot the unit into the space. Load up the shelves and you’re done!

Total cost:

I acquired the GNEDBY units for $50 (CAD) via FB Marketplace and bought the mending plates and screws for about 15 bucks. Total cost around $65 CAD.

What’s the hardest part of the hack?

The hardest part of the hack was waiting for the right deal on the GNEDBY units.

And then figuring out the best combination of heights for the shelves, and fighting with some stubborn peg holes.

Hackers Help: How to attach headboard to ESPEVÄR mattress base?

I’m trying to figure out if a headboard can be attached to an Espevar Mattress Base , and how to accomplish that. I’m looking at a standard metal headboard (because I just prefer the look of curved metal to what IKEA offers) and am not interested in a slat base with just a mattress on top, and a wall mounted headboard is not an option due to renting. Thanks for any help! ~ Amy *** Hi Amy I’ve not seen the ESPEVÄR in person but I believe it is possible to attach a headboard to it. From the website, the ESPEVÄR looks like a regular wooden slatted mattress base under a bed base slipover. As to how to attach it, that will depend on the fittings on the metal headboard. So you will just need to get the right hardware to secure the metal headboard to the wooden frame. And make some small openings on the slipcover to let the fixtures to go through.
