Revised walk-in pantry design, please comment

2 years ago

Some of you may have seen my earlier thread. I now have a revised design. I think it still needs some tweaks. I welcome your comments!


I'm pleased that I now have split entry doors planned so I can put the fridge across from the entrance. (I can't use a pocket door or barnstyle door.) I've identified a very skinny folding stepstool that I'll store between the fridge and the wall. The fridge doors will open a little more than 90-degrees, and everything will be fully accessible (although removing the righthand bin might be tricky).

--To me the single most useful change would be to make all of the middle shelves adjustable (i know the top and bottom shelves can't be). I've already asked but they keep not doing it, I think because the shelves wrap around the corner, so I guess the question is where to divide near the corner so that's not an issue.

--The tall closed cabinet doesn't have adjustable shelves because it's too wide (~34"), so I'm going to ask for it to be a little narrower.

--The tall cabinet has one set of corner shelves inside it; I don't know if that's good or not? I'm told the corner is more accessible that way.

--Should there be another shelf in the cabinet above the fridge? It's otherwise a tall, deep storage area, but since it's hard to access I'm not sure if I should bother.

--Do I have too much counter space (nearly 5' wide) some of which should be more shelves instead?
