Easy Under Bed Boxes

Rather than making bed boxes from scratch, I realised that if these IKEA PAX wardrobe drawers (called Komplement) were just a little bit shorter, they would work perfectly! Figured I'd share the idea anyway as a pair of these would probably do the trick for someone looking for extra storage space, and I wanted to remember the idea!

Take two of these IKEA Komplement drawers (£22 each). They are 160mm tall:

Then just screw in four of these 50mm diameter rubber tyre swivel casters (Pack of four from Screwfix for £13.95). They are 64mm tall.

Or, if tight is space, try some of these single direction low profile castors which are just are 28mm tall. (Slightly less preferable as then you have to pull the drawer out perfectly straight)
