I have a narrow tall space. Can these units be stacked on their sides so there are 2 bottles side by side and 3 bottles high?

They can be stacked in that manner, however they would just be sitting on top of each other as the pieces don't fit together the same way they do sitting the normal way. They are flat so it would just be like sitting boxes on top of each other. Hope this helps.

It would not be secure to stack them sideways unless your space is so restrictive that the units couldn't shift at all. There are feet that anchor one unit to another and they are only on the long sides.

yes they can be placed either way. the only problem I have is they only fit the small bottles

If you have something strong to hold them up on both sides (so not to tip) I believe it would be okay. I have my sitting on a shelf that way, but I don't have them stacked. However, you will not get the additional storage on top. When they lay two tall three across the top is designed to hold an additional three bottles. (This works well for larger bottles.)

You could do this, provided the space was just barely wider than the containers on their sides. As others have said, they're flat, so they stack, but there's nothing holding them together, so if they have room to move, they'll move. When you stack them normally, the feet on the top container slot into slots in the underneath container, so they are solidly connected.

You can set the units on their side, but they do not look that they're made to stake one on top of the other if they are on their side

It appears that they can though they nestle together better when stacked the horizontal direction. However, you can secure the vertical stackings of one on top of the other with one wine cork. (start saving some) There's a hole in each crate to insert the cork to connect them together for some stability. With extreme height...guessing 6 ft ish, you may have some issues with it's stability so you may want some sort of side support so they don't topple over to the side. I'm no engineer, but those are my thoughts. The company may offer a more exact opinion. Good luck!

I agree with JodiePDX, it will not be secure but if it is narrow enough eliminating the possibility of tilting sideways, it may work, maybe not more than 3 container height!

They are separate units. I bought two and stacked them on top of each other in a stack one wide by two high. With six you should be able to stack them 3 wide by two high and so on. Each unit only holds six bottles. The units have a solid feel to them.

I'm sure that you can remove/rearrange shelves to fit bottles. Probably not as efficient use of space.

You can probably stack them, but be sure to put lighter items in top unit. Better idea, if you have to space is to put back-to-back or side by side to create a work space or shelf on top. Love all of my Sterilite items. Easy to put together and sturdy. Helped me organize my garage!

I think you could manage to stack two of them together. However, they are not made to be stacked. Hope this helps!

You can stack the bottles on top of each other, there is plenty of room to stack two high and even higher.

No, they are not stackable, as far as I can tell. You have to buy the number of shelves that you need. The pieces that the company includes only allow you to connect the amount of shelves that come in the box. You may call the company and ask them if they have some sort of kit that you can buy seperately that will enable you to add more shelves. whitmor.comYou can not buy two 3-tier shelves and stack them on top to make six shelves. But, you can put the two 3-tier shelves side by side. Good luck whatever you decide to do.

Yes, that is the beauty of this system. Each compartment is approx. 5 1/2" square from end to end. It's like Tinkertoys; you can build it up as low or high as you wish. So with your 13" clearance, you can stack 2 bottles high and as long as you need. Each large dowel has 4 holes drilled into it.

Without knowing the exact shape of the containers, I would have to say they could not be stacked on top of each other. They should easily fit side by side.

Yes, you could stack them, but, the items in them would have to be less than 3 inches tall. The racks have 2 cross bars that would support another rack. Most of my packets are twice that height.

Two units stack together should not be a problem....but they are narrow, so be cautious

The racks are spaced exactly the right distance vertically for the 750 ml bottles. If you took out some shelves maybe. Each shelf holds 5 "regular" bottles in a 3 facing out 2 facing in (or vice versa) configuration. One thing I ran into though is that one of the winemakers we really like uses tall, skinny bottles, so in that configuration, I have to find other wines that use shorter bottles to get 5 on a shelf.

I can fit shorter bottles (grand mariner, Hendrix gin etc ) on the 2 shelves above the drawer. I put my taller bottles like belvedere, grey goose etc on the very top shelf. All in all I am very happy with this product.

If you are referring to the "Add on Storage Unit" then Yes they can be stacked. The dimensions for the Storage Unit (as pictured) are 34.61L x 17.44W x 16.89H.Add on Storage Unit (with shelves) dimensions are 34.61L x 14.61W x 16.86H. The Storage Unit pictured comes with a secure strap for the purpose of preventing stacked items from sliding off.I would recommend it be on the bottom based on width.

Each opening in the drawer holds 1 full size bottle of spices, or 2 smaller size...you cannot stack them vertically...the drawer is only deep enought for 1 bottle.

No, the bottles would roll off if I understand what you're asking. You can put the two pieces side by side instead of stacking them.

I think not, as the tip of the unit is a bit wider than the sides...like a table top. I think it could be stacked, however, although i have not tried that. It would work well as two units side by side really.
