Pot lids usually take up a lot of space. Let's consider some options for their convenient and compact storage.

The main feature of this method, which is quite common, is the secrecy of objects. This keeps the kitchen tidy. To use this option, you need to take into account the size of the cabinet and the expected finances.

The main plus is that you can do it yourself.

The most common option is roof rails, which can be mounted both on the wall and on the doors of the headset. They are convenient to use and have an affordable cost, excellent price-quality ratio. The range of such accessories is wide, and you can start from your own desires.

First you need to measure the surface area that will be used for fastening, and only then choose the material of the roof railing and the type of fastening. Screwing is carried out using special elements, selected individually. Immediately after installation, you can hang the lids from the pots, which is very convenient - no need to waste time looking for them.

Many housewives neglect the holders and keep the lids on the pans themselves.It's quick and easy, but it takes up a lot of space.

In addition to taking up even more space, this is unfavorable for lids with protruding handles. They get scratched and lose their attractive appearance, and an unstable structure of a mountain of covers is created, which falls when the door is opened, creating even more trouble for the hostess.

If your kitchen has enough free space, then it is recommended to place the cookware in a horizontal position. This will save you time. It is best to store the lids in drawers in the "matryoshka" and you will not spend a lot of time looking.

However, the horizontal method has its drawbacks.

• Unfolding lids and pans will require a lot of free space and is suitable for large and spacious rooms.
• It is desirable that the boxes are not deep, but long and wide. Then it will be possible to save a large number of pots and lids.

Most often, hooks are placed under hanging cabinets, there is always free space that can be used for the desired business. This is how you can place the lids with hinged handles, which is easy and convenient. Thus, there is more free space in the kitchen. There are also covers with solid handles, special holders are used for them, which are sold in stores, but the loops are still easier to fasten. Also suitable for towels.

You can do it yourself. Let's consider the simplest option. We take a wire or a metal rod, attach the thread with self-tapping screws in the place where the covers are stored and cling to the kitchen cabinet door. The holder is ready.

Another mounting option can be done with hooks. We attach a hook to the inner surface of the cabinet door using Velcro. Before that, you first need to measure the radius of the cover and fix the hooks. For one cover, 2 or 4 hooks will be enough.

Convenient storage device for kitchen boards, pot lids. Such products are made of metal, plastic and wood. It can be placed on a table top or in a closet. Outdoor stands are most commonly used. They differ in the type of models, suitable for any kitchen interior. They are intended solely for lids or combined storage with other small kitchen utensils.

Spacers help keep the covers in the correct position. They can be placed inside drawers, on a table or above a stove. Some stands are stands with mounts. Some organizers are attached to the inner surface of the cabinet, but then it takes up a lot of space inside the kitchen cabinet, and this option will not work for small kitchens.

To make a tabletop stand, you will need several wooden sticks, which can be purchased at a hardware store. Holes are created on the two main rails, the holes must be equal to the diameter of the small sticks. And small slats are placed in these holes and spaces are formed between them, in which the covers are placed. Such a device will make life easier for the hostess and will not take much time to make.

Pull-out containers are made when creating a kitchen set. They can be plastic, wood and metal. Some are presented for storing only lids and pans, there are universal ones for small kitchen utensils.

Storage of dishes in drawers has become relevant. For this, a deep drawer is suitable, which is divided by metal dividers and holes for the lids are created. Such an item can be easily made with your own hands.
