Adjustable 8-Tier Wall and Door Rack

Fits in thin spaces and provides great extra organized storage solutions.

I was looking for a solution for gift wrap items. I had them crammed into one of those gift wrap bags but things always get crushed and you can't see eveything you have. Those bags also don't accomodate a large amount of items. I found a wall/door-mount solution I loved online at The Container Store but it was $160! So I was on the hunt for a more reasonably priced solution. Closetmaid to the rescue. For about $50 it's the perfect solution. They don't advertise this as a gift wrap solution and I think I know why. Because the mounting track on the wall (or door) is about 1/2" deep. That creates a 1/2" deep gap behind the baskets. No problem if you're putting in cans in the kitchen or bottles in the laundry room but, cards and gift bags and tissue can fall through that gap. I simply grabbed some 2" wide clear packing tape and ran it horizontally across the gap forming a little bridge between the wall and the basket after it was fully installed. Problem solved. I could probably use some cardboard or plastic and cut a liner to put in the bottom of each basket and solve it as well but the tape worked great, it's clear and a quick cheap solution. There are other similar systems like this but if you're going to use them for gift bags and wrapping paper make sure they include the adjustable braces for tall items. This is the key to holding tall gift bags and rolls of gift paper securely in place. I also took some spools of curling ribbon and stacked them onto a narrow cardboard gift wrap roll. They help utilize the long tall lower basket perfectly. Without the security bar for tall items, this wouldn't work. The other similar products only have the baskets and not this bar, so they aren't an option for a gift-wrap solution. Also, I have read some reviews saying it's not very sturdy. To that, I would say they are not installing the track bars correctly. There is even a 7-second video listed showing how the product is the worst, but all it does is show how they installed it incorrectly because they didn't secure each track. There is plenty of hardware included for all kinds of doors and walls. If you use the toggle bolts provided and secure each track, individually to the door or wall it doesn't move one bit. I do suggest measuring twice and setting up the baskets before you screw in each track to make sure the desired slots to lock in your baskets are free and you can see where to install your hardware. I set mine up on the floor first with the tallest of the items I wanted in place in the baskets and then put some blue tape where the slots would be used on the track. I'm so happy with this rack! It's such a great economical solution installed on a previously unused wall inside my closet. Now when I open up my closet door I get to see all these bright cheery items on the wall and it makes me happy.

Within 10 minutes of this arriving, we were working on getting it up onto the pantry door.After reading some of these reviews, I was a little worried that this was going to be a bigger project than I thought it would be.Believe me, it was so much easier than what some people stated that it would be to attach to my pantry door.I debated whether or not I wanted to add the over the door hooks or not. Because of the weight that I was going to add to it, I decided to go ahead and attach the door hooks.I don't think my pantry door is a solid door. It's does have 6 panels but I think it is hollow. With one reviewers recommendation, I did add zip ties to secure the hanging frames together. Thing is, if you do use zip ties, don't pull them too tight or it will pull the rack frames where they won't be aligned.After getting the two frames all set, I put a couple baskets on so I can set the distance and look to see where on the door I want this rack set.Because of the indents from the panels on the door, I set the screws on the level flat part of the door.One suggestion is to use washers with the screws. The head of the screws are just a wee bigger than the slots. A washer makes sure the screw is set straight and doesn't dig into the frame part. (see picture)I used a drill and pre-drilled my hole. Then screwed in the screw with the washer on it.This kit only comes with 4 screws. I used 6. 3 screws on each side. I might go back and add another screw or 2 on each side, just to make sure it holds solid.As you can see by the picture, it looks fantastic! It has opened up so much of my space in my one cabinet and my pantry.Spices will be so much easier to find now.Only thing that happened is that because I added so much weight to my pantry door, the door latch doesn't work right.I'll be replacing the door handle soon so I will have to re-adjust the hole so the door latch catches it right.I am so glad I decided to get this pantry organizer. I will be looking into other organizers so that things are a bit more easily found in my cabinets and in my pantry.

I needed a door rack for my "new" home to place smaller pantry items. The doors here are not properly plumb/square, so I had to chisel notches at the top and anchor the bottoms. No worries. It was a simple install and everything fits. Plan ahead.
