Mine just looks like all the other doors in the house - 4 panel with 3 1/2" trim (both painted white). I didn't want the pantry to stand out.

I wanted an old wine cellar look to my pantry, even though it's pretty small. One of these days I'm going to put some frosted glass on the door to hide the pantry contents.

Hi,

I'm sorry I don't have a picture to share or a digital camera. My pantry door is designed to match my cabinets. In 2 of my cabinets, I have 6 glass panes and the top half of my pantry door will look the same with 6 panes of glass. I have "artic ice glass" that looks pretty but is cloudy enough that you can't read the labels on the cans in the pantry. I also had the door stained the same color as the cabinets.

The cabinet people could have one made to match the cabinets for $750 but my KD didn't like it. She thought it was poorly made for that price. She found one cheaper and more like a regular door (than a big cabinet door). The hardware on the door is the same color as the hardware on the cabinets and they will both have the same style of glass. It was a bit expensive but some of the alternatives would have ruined the look of the kitchen.

Hope that helps. Good Luck!

I'm with Sue36. Our pantry door matches every other door in the house...5-panel fir door with fir trim.

Rhome: I love your pantry door and wondered if your kitchen cabs are also fir. Our architect wants us to do the cabs in fir because the doors and trim (baseboards and moulding) will be fir. Would love to know what you did in your kitchen. TIA!

kulagal, We are doing a combination of fir and painted cabinets in the kitchen. As you can see, our panels aren't yet on the dishwashers, and the fir that will be our island top is piled on the island in the photo...Well, it's obvious there's still a lot to do, but here is what it looks like right now. I'm including a (bad) photo of one of the bathrooms, for a more straight-on shot of fir cabs, and a closeup with some of our hardware choices.

This is what ours will look like, eventually. Right now, it's on its side in our LR anxiously waiting to be installed :-)

Here's its future home! [They started our corner pantry yesterday!] It's not installed, just clamped in so I could see it when I got home (our carpenter knows me so well by now!)

Ours will be probably painted the same color as the walls (which is what we do with all secondary doors) but with etched glass (which is what we have with the natural fir doors that go into significant rooms), without the "pantry" wording on it.

Rhome: thank you so much for the posting. The cabs look great and the hardware is very handsome with it. I think I will be using ORB pulls with mine. This makes it so much easier to be certain that this is what I want. Good luck with the rest of the project!

Ours is a pocket door, so there's nothing to see when open. When closed, it's wood-panelled to match the wall.

Friends have a sliding "barn door" type thing that he welded hardware for and that has chalk board on half and something else on the other half. It's very cool. I could try to get a photo.

Here's ours, not a walk in but with walk in kind of doors:

We used a screen door that swings both in and out. Here's a link with a picture and details.
Chiefneil, I loved the iron scroll door!

Here is a link that might be useful: Pantry Door

Ours is the same as every other door in our house. Two panel cottage style. But, it is a pocket door which I only close when we have company. It is a full walk in about 7'x 8' in size. When our 2 yr old granddaughter comes to visit it is the first place she goes to. She looks around and then gets herself the container of raisins and a dog cookie for our dog.
