Medicine cabinet shelf help

My 2005 Kountry Star 3910 has large medicine cabinets, however you cannot keep much on the shelves as there is no way to keep things from falling out onto the mirrored doors. (On my first run, I had a door pop open and the mirror cracked).

I had hoped to use some of those adjustable rods like they sell at Camping World, however the medicine cabinets are open at one end (connect to the next cabinet) making those unusable. I thought about bungee cords, but same problem.

I know there are a lot of clever guys and gals out there who have likely come up with a solution.

I'd love to hear your ideas for keeping things put.

If you could post a picture of the cabs? I'm thinking of something like a cargo netting?

I use the little canvas boxes. You can buy them in just about any shape and size you would want.

We have the mirrored medicine cabinet doors with shelves with no way of keeping the stuff from banging the doors. Our solution was non-slip pads under Rubbermaid drawer organizers to keep the various containers in place. We have not had a broken mirror door yet (knock on wood) and have been over some pretty rough roads.

I keep everything in my medicine cabinets in plastic trays. Keeps everything steady, and makes it easy to get out what you need.

I saw one set up where the guy used small hooks screwed into the backside of the cabinet and he stretched a rubber band over it. Kind of crazy but he said it worked.
