It depends on the length of the shelf.
The longer it is, the less support there is to hold heavier items. In other words, a 12-inch shelf will be able to hold more weight without the chance of bowing than a 36-inch shelf.
That’s a tricky question, but here’s what you need to know.
We use soft-close glides by BLUM, which can hold approximately 75 pounds of continuous weight. The size of each drawer box will determine its weight, so subtract that weight from a total weight of 75 pounds to know how much can be placed in the drawer.
No need to just have a plain old drawer in EVERY cabinet when you can give them more purpose by modifying your drawers and adding accessories.
