Thread: Walk in pantry shelves

hi and welcome to the forum!

If you have a plan of the pantry, please post it - when I designed our WIP I thought about what we would store in it and decided to make shelving that in parts was very narrow, to cater only for tins (two deep) and at one end was around 40CMs deep for cereal boxes etc. There is a range of ways to cater for sagging, but it is hard to know without dimension drawings...... a rule of thumb would be "the more bracing, the better" At least with melamine you can cut it with rounded corners etc, which can be a little more pleasing to the eye.

The optimum height of the shelves is dependant on what you want to store in the pantry, as it depends on the type and size of canisters and bottles and cans you want to store.


The best idea is to let your wife decide on the canister storage system that she would like, then let her buy all of them that she needs , and more for later on , and then you can design the system.


That's what we did, we settled on the clickclack system of canisters. Bought the lot and then I built the shelving specifically for them. I also incorporated pull out wire baskets and the 2 freezers into the pantry.


But let your wife do the designing and then, even if it doesn't work out, you cannot be wrong.
