Storage Below 2 Star?

[nileriver]

I was wondering if anyone has put any shelving/storage units underneath the 2 star. I will be keeping my pellets in the garage and would like something to hold all of the accessories I have for the 2 star. Any recommendations on what to get/build?

Remember there is a lot of heat down there

Like Jim stated it gets hot under the grill so only store non flammable items on the bottom shelf.
We are in the process of making a cabinet kit for the 2 star to semi enclose that area but no shelves at this time.
If you decide to make something just be sure to use metal.

The cabinet kit sounds just like what I need. When will more information be released about it?

BPS will be selling them in the next few weeks

Great news! Surprised Big Poppa hasn't jumped in on this thread yet lol. Can you provide any pictures or pricing?

 

[MAK DADDY]

Not at this time, we will role all that out when we finish the run and get it ready for shipping.

Anything made of plastic that you store under the 2 Star will not fare well over time.

Any updates?

 

[nileriver]

Checking again to see if there is any news.

 

[MAK DADDY]

They should be ready next week.

Should be great like everything else.

 

[nileriver]

Haven't seen an update so thought I would just check back in on this.

Good morning Nileriver! Just got some photos done up, thanks for your patience!

 

[nileriver]

Looks great! When will we get a release date and pricing?

 

[SmokinKat]

MAK's got them all built and ready to go, and Big Poppa should have them available on their website soon!

It appears you have to give up the front shelf if you want the Cabinet Kit?

 

[Quadman750]

By the looks of it the shelf mounts on the outside of the legs & when the door opens it is on the inside of the legs, I was wondering why the door was in from each end, now this is probably why. It looks like it will still work.

No, we designed it to fit with the front shelf installed but the door will only open 90 degrees with the front shelf on.
We are using lift off hinges too so you can easily remove the door if you like for access or cleaning.

The hardest part for existing grill owners will be drilling the holes in the legs to mount the panels and hinges. We include a couple drill bits and drill templates but you will need your own cordless drill. The screws are hex head so you can use the tools that came with your 2 Star. There are full instructions with the kit.

2015 2 Star models will already have the mounting holes in the legs for those who want the cabinet kit.
