What happened to Ikea Rationell Drawer Dividers?

Mary Townsend

I bought some Ikea cabinets today but found out the old snap in Rationell drawer dividers are no more.


Does anyone know a good alternative?

I'm looking for something that I can adjust.


TIA

    I found this one: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/70154800/ but the old stuff is gone. And when I asked the Ikea guy, he didn't even know about this one. I found this one after I left the store.

    They discontinued all the Rationell stuff a while ago but have the exact same things for the new drawers under different names.

    The rationell stuff was discontinued because Sektion is different dimensions (inches?) than Akrurum was (metric.) I belive you'll find most of the interior organizers under the variera series listed here...

    We had Akurum/Rationell in our old house. Is there a specific kind of organizer you're looking for?

    I've only seen the sideways dividers, though. It seems that Mary is right that there isn't anything like the old rationell system that let you divide a drawer any way you liked. Now it's mostly a bunch of trays and boxes instead.

    Mary, you might look into the Lee Valley system for more control. It's still a tray, but you divide it up as you like:

    Writersblock is right. I can find the sideways dividers but not the little pieces to divide it the other direction. The problem with boxes and trays is that I'm trying to divide pots, pans and lids, not spices, etc.

    What size drawer do you have?

    Right now 18", but I expect to have 24" and 30" when the whole kitchen goes in. We are doing this in phases.

    Oh sorry. I thought maybe you were only looking for one or two drawers, in which case I was going to suggest eBay. I've seen dividers on there -- though usually only for 15" or 24" cabinet drawers. I've been looking for 30" deep dividers to no avail. I saw something on Amazon similar to the Rationell for shallow drawers but nothing for deep ones.

    The Maximera drawers are based on the Blum Tandembox antaro. If you have the high Maximera, there should be dividers from the Blum Orga Line that fit. It looks like http://www.richelieu.com/ca/en/category/hinges-and-slides/slides/blum/blum-parts-and-accessories/orgaline-for-intivo/cross-divider-cut-to-size/1048295/sku-Z40L1077A31 , but you will also need connectors for antaro like http://www.richelieu.com/ca/en/category/other-products/tandem-slides/cross-divider-connect-w-z40d0002z031/500268/sku-Z40D0002Z031#

    Mahtabeve, if you still have the dividers, is it just for the 15” drawers? And how much for them?

  • wesbie

    Hi Mahtabeve, do you have any of those left? Looking for a 24" drawer.
