Found in the kitchen of a new house: a rack the size of a standard oven. Any ideas

oddly positioned

Cabinet modifications DesignKitchen Cabinets

Unused rails or brackets

These details can reveal that the kitchen once contained a completely different range or oven.

And that’s when the mystery gets

really interesting.

Don’t Throw It Away Just Yet!

If you’ve just moved into the house, I’d resist the urge to toss the mystery rack into the recycling bin.

Even if you never figure out exactly what it was originally used for, it may still be useful.

A surdy metal rack can become:

 

A large cooling rack

Pantry shelving

A baking rack

Garage storage

A plant stand

A workshop shelf

And if the house has historical character, keeping original hardware can sometimes be worthwhile simply because it tells part of the home’s story. DiscoverPatio Furniture
