From Craigslist today.....


Date: 2009-10-19, 3:13PM PDT

I bought a refrigerator on craig's list for my garage. Paid $100. It
works fine, but it is missing its interior shelves. I looked online
and Sears is charging $97 per shelf.

I feel like a real dummy. So if anyone has any shelves from a broken
fridge maybe I could pick them up before you call NV Power to recycle
it. Or if anyone is, by any chance, looking for a fridge without any
shelves, then today is your lucky day. The exact size I need is 25
3/4" wide by 15" deep. It is for a Galaxy model #25368800991, part #:
5303307451. But if you have ANY shelves you aren't using, whatever the
size, I'd be willing to try to make them work.

Also, please email me if you have any ideas where i could find shelves
without paying full retail. I need help.
Thank you so much!

There may be some used appliance dealers in your area that
you could ask. Try The Yellow Pages.

It is so the keg will fit. Make sure you put the tapper hose through
part of the shell without coolant lines.

But seriously- if you want open shelves, the wire things they sell in
the closet remodeling aisle will work. Cover the cut ends with some sort
of u-shape channel. I've even seen plywood with drilled vent holes used.
(but that tends to get skanky unless you urethane it.) Or just ask the
local ma-n-pa appliance store if you can look in the pile of dead ones
out back. Same vintage and actual manufacturer (as opposed to the brand
name), the shelves will probably fit.

I had a side by side with missing freezer racks and found the replacement
co$t as you did.

I ended up using the coated wire rack from the Borg. Made it work with
cutters and a bigger hammer. Either the closet stuff or the shelving
stuff - whatever works for you. In fact, when done the racks on the frig
side looked ****ty. So what do I do? Nope. I left it. It was a resale
house. Frig is not part of std fixtures that go with a house here. You
either sell it or include in sale as an enticement labled a "gift" which
translates to as-is.

please email me if you have any ideas where i could find shelves

Look in the Yellow Pages under Scrap Metal..they often have old fridges at
scrap metal yards

Sure, but that will prevent the needed air flow. Plywood
will also choke off the air movement.

One time, a friend had a fridge without shelf. I measured,
and got one that was too big, from the local metals
recycling place. Cut it to length with a bolt cutters.

Hint: Cut an inch or two longer than what you tape measure,
and then cut it down if you really need to. You can always
trim a half inch off, but you can't add a half inch.

If you can read a tape 'correctly' why make it longer, that's just
stupid !!!!

I think the suggestion of wire shelving is a really good one.

You might also consider looking at the BORG for adjustable gas grill grids.
They usually slide to adjust the width and you might get lucky and come up
with a "no tools" installation.

Cold makes things contract, right? Soon as you put those warm metal
shelves in the fridge, they're gonna get shorter. Best cut them a bit
longer when they're warm just to be sure. ;-)

On a serious note, if I'm sourcing something from a recyclers and using
something like bolt cutters to do it, I probably would make sure I get
something a little larger - then I'd take more time to cut a nice neat
edge in the 'shop at home (not using bolt cutters), which will lose a
little bit of material in the process.

Chances of getting exact right shelves probably remote.
Our fridge has worked fine for years with one of the shelves made from
plywood.
Most likely be necessary to make something using whatever one can get
hands on.
Or get an old oven rack and cut it down etc. etc.

It's hard to read a tape! correctly! on an inside surface
like! that!! I ! know, I tried various ways!

How about oven racks? If they're too short/narrow width maybe you can
use brackets to double them up?

I'd make a template out of two slats from old window shades or other long,
thin pieces of wood and a binder clip. Hold them together, extend them till
they both touch and then clip in place. From what I see of old timers
working, they'll make a template as often as they'll make measurements for a
lot of "cut in place" sort of things. In the Paleozoic era, when people
still used linoleum, I remember seeing a pro make a paper template with two
sticks and a square so fast I was "floored." g

Yeah, it's good advice. For any home project my time often seems to be
about evenly split between making the actual item and making
templates/jigs/tools to make the final thing better...

Ha, I did that in our bathroom as a temporary floor until we get around
to tiling it (and/or relocating the bathroom and turning that one into a
rear hallway / cloakroom*) - anything was better than the green carpet the
previous owners had!

* feature-creep is great. :-)

Try Beth Bad and Beyond. They have shelves. I have the same model and bought a few.

It's white enamel, and comes in 12 or 16 depth, and
4 or 6 foot length.

Prolly the only reason he'd be a great catch is 'cause he can't run

I haven't read this whole thread, but I would agree with the advice to check the local used appliance shops. If Sears is still selling those shelves, then it's likely to be a popular shelf used on quite a number of fridges, and there's a real good chance that the local used appliance stores will have them.

The other option would be to sell it as a Beer Fridge. You don't need shelves for a beer fridge because the stainless steel cylinder that contains your 5 gallons of beer is about 28 inches high (judging by my two), and so there's really no room for shelves in a beer fridge. Those cylinders also weigh about 60 pounds when full, and that's pushing the load carrying capacity of a fridge shelf.
