A 16-Inch Stainless Steel Tip-Out Tray for the Space in Front of the Sink
This Rev-A-Shelf 6581 Series tip-out tray converts the false drawer front above a sink into functional storage, holding sponges, scrub pads, and small sink-side items that would otherwise clutter the counter.
Key Features
Stainless steel construction holds up to the wet, high-use environment at the kitchen sink.
16 inches long fits standard sink cabinet openings where a false drawer front spans the full width.
Silver/Polished Chrome finish gives the tray a clean, bright look that coordinates with stainless sink fixtures and hardware.
2-1/8-inch depth and 3-inch height sized to keep sponges and small accessories organized without taking up drawer space.
No tab stop on this configuration, suited for installations where a pivot stop is not needed or is handled by the hinge hardware.
Putting Dead Space to Work
The cabinet space in front of a kitchen sink is almost always wasted. A plumbing run prevents a functioning drawer, so most cabinetmakers install a fixed false front and leave the space behind it empty. A tip-out tray changes that: the false front pivots open on a hinge and the tray catches whatever accumulates at the edge of the sink. That keeps sponges, scrubbers, and soap pads off the counter and contained behind the cabinet face where they belong.
Finish and Material
The tray is stainless steel in a Silver/Polished Chrome finish, which makes it a natural match in kitchens with chrome or stainless faucets, sink hardware, and fixtures. The polished surface wipes down easily, which matters in a tray that lives next to water and soap. Stainless holds its finish in a wet environment where a painted or powder-coated steel tray might show wear over time.
Where It Fits Best
This tray is the right call for a kitchen where chrome or polished hardware is already the theme and the sink cabinet has a standard 16-inch false drawer front. Cabinet shops and installers fitting out a new kitchen run will find this tray drops into the build without a finish mismatch. Homeowners remodeling around a stainless or chrome sink package get a coordinated look in a spot that is easy to overlook. The no-tab-stop configuration works where the pivot control is built into the tip-out hinge rather than the tray itself.
Common Questions
Does the tray include the tip-out hinges?
This listing is for the tray only. Tip-out hinges are sold separately and are required for the false drawer front to pivot.
What is the difference between a tab stop and no tab stop?
A tab stop is a built-in limiter on the tray that controls how far the front pivots open. This tray does not include one, so pivot control is handled by the hinge hardware you select.
Can this tray be used on both sides of a double sink cabinet?
One tray covers one false drawer front. For a double sink with two false fronts, order one tray per opening.
Is the polished chrome finish durable next to a wet sink?
The tray is stainless steel, which handles the moisture and cleaning products typical of a kitchen sink environment. Dry it periodically to keep the finish looking sharp.
Organized Storage Where the Counter Ends
This tray turns a blank false front into a practical sink-side compartment, finished in polished chrome stainless steel for a clean look that holds its own next to chrome and stainless kitchen fixtures.
