I like this solution for kitchens with limited space for pots and pans with lots of glass lids. If you can imagine a way to store them on the wall it probably exists, if not let us know in the comments below.
If you are looking for an all in one shelf style rack you can use a lid organizer to store the lids on top, pots and pans hanging underneath.
Two Shelf Wall Mount Black Pot Rack
This will look amazing on an open wall in your kitchen.
There are 10 inches of clearance between the upper and lower shelves.
You can use optional the optional Range Kleen six-pack of accessory hooks to hang utensils from the back and middle sections of the lower shelf.
Don’t use the included plastic screw anchors. We always recommend mounting directly to the wall studs or using heavy duty wing style anchors.
Bookshelf Kitchen Pot Rack
This heavy duty kitchen shelf rack comes in a choice of Hammered Steel or Silver color.
It will only take about 30-45 minutes to install.
The included drywall anchors are sturdy.
It’s 24 and 1/2 inches wide and 10 inches deep. It could be difficult to install if you do not assemble the bottom shelf before lining up to mark the holes. It comes with 4 each of two types of hooks, eight hooks total. We really like the hammered hammered steel because it can be painted flat black for that expensive wrought iron look.
Midcentury Modern Wood and Cast Aluminum Kitchen Shelf With Swivel Hooks
This cutie is 36 inches wide and 8 inches deep. The wood slats could be trimmed down if you are handy and need a smaller size.
This is a great looking storage solution for large lids on top between the slats.
It comes with 4 pan hooks and 2 swivel hooks with additional ones available.

Slimline 36 Inch Black Bar Rack with Black Hooks
Here is a cute slim rack that hugs that will hug your wall.
A stylish choice that uses the least amount of depth space.
Single strips like this one with hooks similar to a ceiling mount are a great way to make use of limited space in your kitchen. You can go with this option stand alone or underneath a larger shelf.
Tips for mounting on your wall
Always try to mount at least one or more of the upper screws into a wall stud. When not going into the studs use heavy duty drywall wall anchors. Predrill wall studs with a 1/2 size smaller diameter drill bit for wood. This will make it easier to tighten the screws down all of the way.
DecoBros Wall and Door-Mounted Pot Lid Rack Product Review
The DecoBros Wall- and Door-Mounted Pot Rack can be a great addition to your kitchen for organizing all of your pot and container lids. These are those items that just seem to end up all over, and it can be difficult to corral them all in one place. Fortunately, there is a solution. This rack can be mounted on the wall or the door of your kitchen, so it provides you with additional floor space while keeping all the lids organized and safely stored in one place. This pot lid rack is manufactured using heavy steel with a chrome finish, which makes it suitable for any type of décor. This rack can easily accommodate five lids of different sizes without any trouble. If you compare it to other horizontal pot lid racks available on the market, then you will find out that the latter not only take up too much space in the kitchen but are also designed in such a way that the small lids go on to the top while the large ones are stored at the bottom of the rack. This really creates trouble when you want to remove the small lids, as the larger ones tend to overlap them.
You can clearly observe from the design of this rack that there are no such limitations there, and you can easily store all sizes of lids according to what you own. Even though this rack is intended for storing up to five lids, it can store more than that, but caution should be taken while doing so. As this rack is designed to be installed on either a wall or a door, you should take care while installing it on the kitchen door to ensure that there is enough space between the door and the wall behind it. It is also recommended that you should either mount this rack on the wall of your choice or use the backs of the doors on your kitchen cabinets; there is ample space there and it does not affect the actual floor space of your kitchen.
Features
Some of the outstanding features associated with the DecoBros Wall Door Mounted Pot Lid Rack include:
- This rack mounts on a wall or cabinet door to save space
- It comes with all the hardware required to mount it on the wall or the door of the cabinet. The hardware includes four screws and anchors needed for the installation
- It is manufactured using sturdy and heavy gauge steel with a chrome finish, so it looks unassuming just about anywhere while providing safety and stability when loaded with multiple lids
- This rack comes in dimensions of 15.1 x 12.8 x 4.8 inches and weighs about 1.8 pounds
- This rack is suitable for all types and shapes of lids for pots and pans
- Very inexpensive
While considering this rack, you should also look at how well it performs in the real world to make a proper choice. What follows are some of the noticeable benefits and downsides that customers have reported about the product.
Pros
- Symmetrical design to store lids of different sizes and shapes
- Sturdy body due to usage of quality metal for construction
- Easy to mount, only requires basic tools
- Hardware required for mounting the rack included in the package
- Comes with each tier in the same size, which allows you to organize the lids any way you need
- Compatible with lids with “U” shaped and round knobs
- Chrome finish for durability and longevity
- Holds up well with heavier cast iron lids
- Looks nice
- Holds lids closer to the wall than other similar models, which saves space
Cons:
- Doesn’t protect your wall from scratches, both from the rack itself and the lids (if you don’t place them on the rack gently)
- The provided screws aren’t long enough to give a stable feel when attaching the rack to thicker doors
Conclusion: If you consider all the features, pros, and cons related to the DecoBros rack, overall this is a good product for organizing your kitchen space. This rack helps in storing the lids of your pans and containers in an organized way without creating clutter in the cabinets and drawers. Even though the indentations for the handles seem pretty big, especially when compared to other models in the same category, they hold on well to the smaller lids and firmly support them. If you opt for storing more than the stipulated number of lids on this rack, then the lids sort of tangle with each other. You have to push the other lids out of the way to bring out the one you want, but it does not interfere with the other lids or let them fall out. It has an attractive design, and the chrome finish makes it suitable for all types of kitchen decor if you want to have it out in the room instead of in a pantry or cabinet. The chrome finish of this rack, apart from beautifying, also provides resistance against corrosion if you put wet lids in the slots.
Comparison
In fully assessing whether or not a product works well, it helps to see how it performs when compared to other products in the same category. If you compare the DecoBros Wall- and Door-Mounted Pot Lid Rack with similar products, such as the Organize It All Cabinet Door Lid Rack or Organize It All Cabinet Door Lid Rack with Chrome Finish, the first thing that you notice is the price difference between these three products. The DecoBros Rack is currently available at the price of $71.35, while the Organize It All Cabinet Door Lid Rack is available at a price of $12.99. The Organize It All Cabinet Door Lid Rack with Chrome Finish is available at a price of $18.43, which clearly raises some questions regarding the quality and standard of these two other products. Secondly, the design of the last two products is similar in structure, with largest tier on the base and a gradual decrease in the size to the top. This design does not provide you with the choice of storing lids of similar sizes, as you are forced to store the larger lids on the lowest tier and then a smaller lid on the upper tier. If you don’t have smaller lids, these choices only waste space. The DecoBros rack levels are all the same size, so you have options in what you store. Thirdly, the Organize It All Cabinet Door Lid Rack comes with a paint-job finish, which tends to peel after some time of usage.
If you consider the three and their main differences mentioned above, then the DecoBros Wall- and Door-Mounted Pot Lid Rack is a much better choice for versatility and is every penny worth the cost.
