Anyone up for a project? Ikea Algot

Not sure if there is an easy way of planning for Algot?

We have a cupboard that is 160cm high, 80cm deep and 65 cm wide. I think it would once have been an airing cupboard. It is a big space but we don't use it well. I would like to fit it out with shelves/drawers and use it for bed linen/towels etc. looking at the Algot system my mind is boggling at what combination would best fit. Any thoughts or tips? Tia

I have a couple of Algot units in my airing cupboard, and I must say it's not a fantastic use of space. Because they don't fit exactly, there's a lot of unused space around them.

They are a quick an easy solution for storage though, and the basket fittings are perfect for towels etc.

You might be best off with the wall mounted option across the back wall. Is it exactly 65cm wide?

Have you had a look on pinterest? Lots of inspiration there.

It's nearer 70cm wide but there are some pipes running through it so I was taking those into account. DH wants to for it out with basic shelves to use the whole space but I'm not sure how well stuff will be stored/accessible like that.

I am designing a pantry currently so I've got some of the same problems. I was going to have a good look on Pinterest or houzz for ideas.

you could start by putting algot into the search bit.
