Summerset 33 inch 2 Drawer and Trash or LP Tank Pullout Drawer Combo: tool storage with a tank or trash pullout
The Summerset 33 inch 2 Drawer and Trash or LP Tank Pullout Drawer Combo is a drawer and door combo for an outdoor kitchen island. Combo means the drawers and the door share one frame and one cutout in the island. It has two drawers for tools and dry goods plus a vented pullout that holds a standard propane tank, or a trash bin if the grill runs on natural gas. It measures 33 by 22 inches. It mounts flush, sitting flat against a smooth island face such as tile, stucco, or panels. It is built from 304 stainless steel, the grade that holds up best outdoors, and Summerset backs it with a lifetime warranty.
The drawers pull all the way out on ball bearing slides, so nothing gets lost at the back. Vented means slots in the face let air move through the island, which matters when a propane tank is stored inside, because leaked propane sinks and needs a way out. The tank slides out for gauge checks and swaps, and the grill above runs off it through the island. This suits an island with a propane grill and only one opening for both fuel and storage. Only need the pullout? See the Summerset 20 inch Vented Liquid Propane Tank or Trash Pullout Drawer. The Summerset 33 inch 2 Drawer and Trash or LP Tank Pullout Drawer Combo ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.
FAQ
Why does a propane tank drawer need ventilation?
Propane is heavier than air – if a tank fitting seeps inside a sealed island, gas pools in the cavity, which is a genuine hazard. The DC2-33LP’s pullout bay is vented specifically so any vapor disperses outside instead of collecting. That is why code-conscious builders spec a vented compartment, never a plain closed cabinet, for LP storage.
Can I run my grill on the tank stored inside?
Yes – that is the point. The pullout holds a standard cylinder that connects to a propane grill above through the island cavity, and the drawer slides out so you can check the gauge or swap tanks without crawling inside the island.
What does the DC2-33LP combine?
Three functions in one 33-by-22-inch horizontal unit: two storage drawers for grilling tools and dry goods, plus a vented pullout bay sized for either a liquid propane tank or a trash bin. It is the configuration for islands that need fuel storage and utensil storage but only have one opening to spare.
Trash or tank – how do I choose?
Run on natural gas? Use the vented bay as a pullout trash drawer and keep cleanup steps from the grill. Run on propane? The tank takes priority, and the two storage drawers absorb the rest. Some owners switch roles seasonally – the DC2-33LP does not care which job the bay does.
What keeps this unit from corroding around gas fittings?
The whole combo – body, drawer faces, bar handles – is 304 stainless steel, the corrosion-resistant grade used on premium grill heads. That matters near a propane connection, where you want hardware that stays sound for years. Wipe with the grain occasionally and the DC2-33LP shrugs off weather.
How smooth is the tank pullout under load?
A full propane cylinder is heavy and awkward, so the bay rides the same heavy-duty full-extension tracks and ball-bearing slides as the storage drawers. It rolls out with one hand, which beats wrestling a tank through a door opening at ground level.
What should I double-check before framing the cutout?
Confirm the rough opening for the 33-by-22-inch flush-mount frame against Summerset’s spec sheet, and plan the gas line route from the bay to the grill before the counters go on. Leave the vented face unobstructed – the ventilation only protects you if air can actually move through it.
