Hey all, I was looking to see if anyone had any storage suggestion ideas for this Dead space. I have behind my refrigerator. I’m only able to reach in. Probably about 3 ft or so, but the space is about 4 ft wide by 7 ft long. The floor of this space is also the ceiling of my basement, so I can’t see it supporting very much weight without being reinforced. Looking for ideas if you have any, thanks!

    I bought a house in the inner city like that. Some things off the top of my head: wiring from a wall switch to the ceiling light was wired with an extension cord. Not a heavy duty orange one, the brown twisty kind you would use for Christmas lights. Knob and tube wiring that was capped at a dead end (no junction box) protruding from a hole in a closet. At the panel everything was updated romex so it was tied in somewhere. Never figured out where. Wires were sliced together in the kitchen ceiling without being in a junction box, squirrels got in and would cause it to short out.

    An outlet tester costs $10 and will tell you if outlets are wired properly.
