I recently got some feedback on the height of a tie drawer insert. A customer ordered a 5.5″ tallĀ Cubby Grid for his tie drawer, then found reaching into those tall, narrow compartments to be awkward. The cubbies were sized 2.35″ x 3.85″ x 5.5″.
For ease of access, he recommends a height of 3.5″ for ties.
