The present invention relates to a door-basket structure of a refrigerator, which is installed on a rear surface of a refrigerator door and used as a space for storing foodstuffs. The door-basket structure of the present invention comprises a basket body 60 that is installed slidably in a fore and aft direction at a rear surface of a door 50 and accommodates and stores foodstuffs therein; a basket cover 62 pivotably installed at an upper portion of the basket body 60 so as to selectively open and close an upper face of the basket body 60; and an interlocking means 70 for allowing the basket cover 62 to be opened and closed in cooperation with the basket body 60. The cooperation means 70 comprises a rack portion 72 and a pinion portion 74 formed on the basket body and the basket cover to have complementary shapes, wherein the rack portion 72 and the pinion portion 74 are engaged with each other. The interlocking means 70 forcibly opens the basket cover 62 when the basket body 60 is drawn out forward (rearward of the door). According to the present invention, there is an advantage in that it is easy to accommodate and take out foodstuffs in and from the door basket.
