3' Pantry (tall) filler - what to do?
Comments (2)Is there any way to add another inch? Someone on IkeaFans took a 4" space and made it into a broom closet. I don't know if 3" is enough. I have noticed, though, that Rev-A-Shelf does have 3" base & wall fillers, so I would think you could do it in 3" for full height. You could try getting the glides/slides for a filler pullout for pegboard (base would probably be best) and just mount them in the tall filler...and put a full height metal pegboard b/w them. Just a thought, not sure if it would work. Anyone else???

Comments (14)Right now I have three pantry closets - second pantry closet holds, what else, an entire shelf of school and art supplies (also some stationery and desk supplies, ie printer paper). In addition, dog food in 20 pound Tupperware containers, dog supplies, ie leash, collars, basket of dog toys, paper products - plates, napkins, paper towels, large cases of waters, sodas, large roasting pans, large quantity coffee machine, rarely used serving dishes, etc. I have another separate smaller closet for cleaning supplies, brooms and mops - also used to store extras like zip loc, foil, dish detergent, trash bags, vacuum bags, etc. After the renovation we'll have two closets - will keep the cleaning closet separate, but will combine the function of the other two in a new walk in pantry....See Moredo you like you kitchen pantry cabinet?
Comments (27)mdln -- on the pantry cabinet with the drawers -- I really like the look. However, our architect had also suggested using drawers as the pantry base, but I wasn't sure. We have some drawers in our current kitchen, so I cleared them out and put pantry items in them to check it out -- I realized that it wouldn't work for us for the items we wanted to store there, it was too hard to see the items from the top (e.g., all the sup cans looked the same). I'm sure that drawers work great for certain products, especially ones that are not that deep. But I'd suggest trying it out for yourself to see how it feels to you....See MoreDo you like your Ikea tall pantry?
Comments (25)Our range is Jenn-Air. I love it. Our 100+ yr old house was newly renovated when we bought it 7 years ago and the stainless jenn-air range came with it. We are renovating now to update the finishes to something more to our taste but not changing the appliances. No need to! I think we are going to do each pullout by category so it should be easy to find every thing. One for spices, one for dry goods, one for baking, one for liquids (oils, vinegar etc) one for Asian ingredient. The the upper shelves will be other... We use almost no canned goods and are only 2 people so it might be a little easier for us....See Morepippiep
