Electric Lift Overhead Cabinet Basket — Motorised Double-Layer Kitchen Organiser
$1,623.28
Descripción
The problem with overhead kitchen cabinets is that they are difficult to access and easy to forget. This electric lift basket solves both issues by bringing the contents of the cabinet down to eye level at the press of a button. The motorised lift mechanism descends the double-layer aluminium alloy basket from the cabinet interior, making spices, condiments, bottles, and kitchen essentials immediately accessible without reaching, stretching, or climbing. When not in use, the basket retracts flush into the cabinet. Available in nine cabinet widths from 500mm to 900mm to fit standard overhead cabinet configurations.
IMPORTANT — MEASURE BEFORE ORDERING
This basket is installed inside an existing overhead cabinet. You must measure your cabinet's internal width, height, and depth before selecting a size. An incorrectly sized basket cannot be installed. See the Size Guide below for minimum cabinet requirements per variant. If you are unsure, contact us before ordering.
Size Guide — Cabinet Requirements
Select your variant based on your cabinet's internal width. You must also verify your cabinet meets the minimum internal height and depth requirements. All measurements are internal (not external cabinet dimensions).
| Variant | Unit Size (W×D×H) | Min. Cabinet Width | Min. Cabinet Height | Min. Cabinet Depth |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 500 cabinet | 464 × 280 × 690mm | >464mm | >700mm | >300mm |
| 550 cabinet | 514 × 280 × 690mm | >514mm | >700mm | >300mm |
| 600 cabinet | 564 × 280 × 690mm | >564mm | >700mm | >300mm |
| 650 cabinet | 614 × 280 × 690mm | >614mm | >700mm | >300mm |
| 700 cabinet | 664 × 280 × 690mm | >664mm | >700mm | >300mm |
| 750 cabinet | 714 × 280 × 690mm | >714mm | >700mm | >300mm |
| 800 cabinet | 764 × 280 × 690mm | >764mm | >700mm | >300mm |
| 850 cabinet | 814 × 280 × 690mm | >814mm | >700mm | >300mm |
| 900 cabinet | 864 × 280 × 690mm | >864mm | >700mm | >300mm |
Dimensions are approximate ±2mm. Always measure your cabinet's internal dimensions before ordering. The variant number refers to the nominal cabinet width it is designed for — the unit itself is approximately 36mm narrower than the cabinet nominal to allow for installation clearance.
Not Best For:
- Cabinets with internal height below 700mm — the lift mechanism requires minimum 700mm vertical clearance to operate.
- Cabinets with internal depth below 300mm — the basket will not fit.
- Open-frame or frameless cabinets without a solid top panel — the motor unit mounts to the cabinet ceiling.
- Cabinets with existing internal shelving that cannot be removed — the basket occupies the full internal height.
- Rental properties where drilling or permanent installation is not permitted.

Why This Organiser
- It solves the overhead cabinet access problem permanently: Upper cabinets are underused because they are difficult to access. The electric lift brings the entire contents down to counter height at the press of a button — no reaching, no step stool, no forgotten items at the back.
- Aluminium alloy construction is the correct material for a kitchen environment: It does not rust, does not absorb odours, and does not degrade from moisture or cooking vapour. The anodised finish is easy to wipe clean and maintains its appearance over time.
- The double-layer configuration doubles the storage capacity of a single shelf: Two independent shelves within the same cabinet footprint means spices, oils, condiments, and bottles can be organised by category and accessed simultaneously.
- Nine width variants means it fits standard cabinet configurations without modification: From 500mm to 900mm in 50mm increments, the range covers the most common overhead cabinet widths in modern kitchens.
- The retracted position is completely concealed: When not in use, the basket sits flush inside the closed cabinet. There is no visible hardware, no protruding mechanism, and no impact on the kitchen's visual cleanliness.
Installation & Maintenance
- Installation: Professional installation is recommended. The motor unit mounts to the internal ceiling of the overhead cabinet. An electrical connection is required — a qualified electrician should handle the wiring if you are not experienced with electrical work.
- Pre-installation check: Verify internal cabinet width, height (minimum 700mm), and depth (minimum 300mm) before installation. Confirm the cabinet ceiling can support the motor unit weight.
- Cleaning: Wipe the aluminium basket with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or steel wool which will scratch the anodised finish. Dry after cleaning to prevent water marks.
- What to avoid: Do not overload the basket beyond its rated capacity. Do not operate the lift with the cabinet door closed if the basket protrudes below the door line. Do not use in environments with excessive steam directly above the unit.
- Periodic checks: Check the motor mounting screws and basket connection points every 6 months. Lubricate the lift rail with a dry lubricant spray annually for smooth operation.
FAQ
Q: How do I know which size to order?
A: Measure the internal width of your overhead cabinet. Select the variant that matches your cabinet's nominal width (e.g. if your cabinet is 600mm wide internally, select the 600 cabinet variant). Also confirm your cabinet has at least 700mm internal height and 300mm internal depth. See the Size Guide for full requirements.
Q: Does this require an electrician to install?
A: The motor unit requires an electrical connection. If you are not experienced with electrical wiring, a qualified electrician should handle the connection. The mechanical installation (mounting the unit inside the cabinet) can be completed by a competent DIYer with basic tools.
Q: Will it fit a cabinet with existing shelves?
A: No. The lift basket occupies the full internal height of the cabinet. Any existing fixed shelving must be removed before installation.
Q: What is the weight capacity?
A: Contact us for the rated load capacity of your specific variant. As a general guide, the double-layer basket is designed for spices, condiments, bottles, and jars — not heavy cookware.
Q: Can it be installed in a base cabinet instead of an overhead cabinet?
A: No. This is specifically designed as an overhead hanging cabinet basket. The lift mechanism descends downward from the cabinet ceiling. It is not suitable for base cabinet installation.
Q: Is professional installation required?
A: Professional installation is strongly recommended, particularly for the electrical connection. Incorrect installation may void any warranty and could create a safety hazard.
