Medicine Cabinet HELP!!!! :-) :-)

Okay I love the motor home BUT whenever I open the medicine cabinet it dumps most of the items on the floor, first it freaks me out and second can REALLY HURT :B :h I have been looking on it as forced exercise but it is getting a little annoying.

The clasp is tight and I really don't want to loosen it but I also would like my stuff to stay in there. Thought of some small trays but it is almost too narrow for that. So what have you done (if anything) to keep the things were they belong.
  • two ideas:

    some sort of stretchy mesh fabric hooked to sides of cabinet

    small boxes/bins and velcro tape strips, fuzzy side of the velcro tape on the bins and loopy side stuck onto the med chest wall
  • I used an elastic cord about 2" above the bottom of each shelve. It is easy to put stuff in and the elastic keeps it from falling out.
  • Google, "RV cabinet rods," for lots of sources, styles and choices.
    They are adjustable.

    Here is one example of a double rod, but they come in singles also.

  • In the process of searching 'RV bathroom organization' some time ago I remember seeing quite a few devices to contain items in medicine cabinets.
  • We glued thin, see-through plastic borders on all the shelves. Only about an inch or so tall, but keeps things from escaping.

    In the refrigerator, we use small tension rods.
  • We use small tension rods (from Target or BB&B) to hold stuff in place. They pop out easily once we reach our destination.
