ABSTRACT:
A storage device for use between exposed rafters of a basement or like ceiling is disclosed. The device includes a base and drawer each of rigid welded wire construction. The base is secured by wood screws to the bottom surface of adjacent rafters to span between them. The base includes tracks in the form of welded wires which define a pair of parallel slots. The wires also define an enlarged opening into the slots of the front end of the base. The drawer at the bottom of its rear end has a pair of spaced apart projecting T-shaped hooks for releasably and slidably engaging the track. The hooks also allow the drawer to hang vertically from the front end of the base and to be manually removed and reinserted into engaging with the slots through the wide openings. The drawer may be pivoted upward on the hooks and slid with the hooks engaged in the slots to a storage position atop the base and between the rafters. The unit's welded wire construction allows the drawer's contents to be readily seen from below even when the drawer is in the storage position between the rafters. The drawer is formed with security lip at its front end of its mostly open top to help keep stored items in the drawer even when it is hanging generally vertically from the base for easy access.
