This invention is directed to an expandable utensil tray that may be expandable both in length and width, and consisting of one main element and one or more drawer trays nestable therein. The expandable storage tray is particularly suitable as a drawer organizer which maximizes space utilization.

A cabinet for securely storing items includes a drawer enclosure, a drawer, a cover, an electric actuator, and a switch. The drawer is slidable at least partially into and out of the enclosure, and includes a compartment. A cover which is configured as a metal belt is designed to selectively block access to the compartments of the drawer when the cover is in a first configuration, and to allow access to the compartment when the cover is in a second configuration. The electric actuator is designed to move the cover from the first configuration to the second configuration in one of two directions. The actuator selects the direction to reduce the time required to make such movement.

A vanity fold-out organizer includes an organizer body and a first tray including a storage compartment positioned above the organizer body. A second tray is positioned above the first tray. A plurality of links couples the trays to the organizer body and/or lower trays to allow pivotable movement relative to the base between a tray open position and a tray closed position. The organizer body is disposed for sliding movement from a retracted position to an extended position relative to the vanity. The tray open position is available when the organizer body is in the extended position. The organizer body is disposed partly beneath a plumbing assembly including a plumbing trap and the first and second trays are sized to fit beside the plumbing assembly in the tray closed position when the organizer body is in the retracted position.

This invention is designed to create a drawer that has the ability to be easily broken down into a flat or neat flat stack. The most difficult about shipping furniture is that the drawers do not condense, filling much more space than necessary. With the methods described in this patent, one can create a drawer that can easily be compacted to a fraction of the assembled size and can be assembled without any specialized tools. This will also help with minimizing shipping space as well as shipping costs. This invention can be used for dressers, desks, toolboxes, nightstands, organizers, residential, or industrial furniture, and many more applications.

An organization system may include a mount and an organization tray. The mount may include a structural interface configured to engage with a vertical structure to affix the mount to the vertical structure. The mount may also include a retention protrusion connected to the structural interface. The organization tray may comprise: (i) a base, (ii) a plurality of tray walls connected to the base, wherein the plurality of tray walls and the base define one or more compartments; and (iii) an engagement recess defined by or positioned on a tray wall of the plurality of tray walls, wherein the engagement recess is configured to receive and engage with the retention protrusion of the mount to selectively mount the organization tray to the vertical structure.
