How to Design a Kitchen Pantry

Jerry Pierce December 11, 2021 2 min read

A Kitchen Pantry is a room or cupboard where you keep household items such as food, household cleaning products, linens, and provisions. They also serve as an ancillary room to the kitchen. Its purpose is to maximize storage space in a home. You can use a pantry to keep things organized and accessible.

There are several different types of kitchen pantries, including walk-in closets, pull-out pantry cabinets, and freestanding modular shelves. The type of kitchen pantry you choose will depend on your space. Generally, a pantry should be at least 24 inches deep and 14 inches wide. For larger spaces, consider a walk-in closet style pantry.

You can also choose a butler style pantry if you prefer. A good pantry can look stylish with beautiful handles and lighting. You can even style the space to create symmetry with other appliances in the kitchen. For more ideas, check out my article on how to style an open pantry. You can add aesthetics to your pantry while making it more functional.

You can add extra style to your pantry by installing rounded or shallow shelves to avoid sharp corners. Another option is to use perforated aluminum shelves. You can buy perforated aluminum at stores like McNichols. You can also install a vintage screen door to define the space. These screen doors can be reclaimed or purchased new. If you want a Victorian look, you can even install Victorian Running Trim on your screen doors.

A kitchen pantry is a place for food storage and other household supplies. The cabinets are usually tall and narrow. This gives you a central storage area for your food, cleaning supplies, and linens. You can even hide the refrigerator in the space. It also helps to keep the entire kitchen organized. The pantry is the ideal storage spot for canned foods and other dry goods.

There are many ways to create more storage space in the kitchen. There are different types of kitchen pantries, and the right design for your kitchen will maximize its use. A walk-in pantry is a great option if you have a large family. The extra space also doubles as a dish storage area.

The depth of a pantry should be at least sixteen inches deep and 24 inches apart. You should also consider the amount of floor space available. If possible, choose adjustable shelves. These are more versatile than fixed ones. A pantry can fit in almost any space, but a narrow pantry may not have enough room for bulkier items.

A freestanding pantry is another good option if space is an issue. This type of pantry is easy to move around and allows for flexible storage. Freestanding pantries also allow you to choose a colour or design that matches your kitchen’s overall design. These units often feature sliding shelves and rotating doors, making them easy to organize and access.
