Cabinet Accessories and Organization
Full-height pantry cabinets with pull-out shelving, door-mounted storage, and adjustable interior systems. Built to the ceiling. Built to last.
Overview
The pantry cabinet is the hardest-working storage piece in a kitchen and, in most production kitchens, the most poorly designed. Fixed shelves, no pull-outs, no door storage, and a depth that puts everything at the back out of reach by the second week of ownership. The result is a cabinet that becomes a graveyard for canned goods and forgotten appliances.
A Dan Craig Cabinetry pantry system is designed around how the household actually stores food: with pull-out shelves at every level so nothing is ever out of reach, door-mounted storage for cans and small items, dedicated appliance landing zones, and an adjustable interior that can be reconfigured as needs change. The pantry is built to the ceiling to capture every inch of available height.
A tall cabinet with full-extension pull-out shelves at every level from base to ceiling height. Each shelf pulls out to full depth, giving complete access to the entire cabinet interior from one standing position. The most functional pantry configuration available.
Wire or solid wood racks mounted to the interior face of a pantry door that provide additional shallow storage for cans, spice jars, bottles, and small packages. Recovers storage that would otherwise be lost behind the door swing.
A dedicated cabinet section at counter height with a roll-up tambour door that conceals a small appliance landing zone. Keeps countertop appliances accessible without leaving them on the counter permanently.
A pantry cabinet with adjustable shelving on standard shelf pin holes and integrated LED lighting on each shelf underside. Adjustability allows the interior to be reconfigured as storage needs change. Lighting makes the back of deep shelves visible.
Pantry pull-out systems at Dan Craig Cabinetry are mounted on Blum Tandem Plus Blumotion slides with a weight rating matched to the shelf load. Heavy-duty pantry pulls carrying canned goods and appliances are specified on higher-rated Blum slide configurations to ensure smooth, reliable operation under full load for decades.
We build pantry cabinets to ceiling height whenever the ceiling height and room geometry allow. A pantry that stops at standard 96-inch upper cabinet height wastes the space above it and creates a ledge that collects dust. A ceiling-height pantry captures every inch of available storage height and reads as a more complete, considered piece of cabinetry in the room.
Standard pantry cabinet depth is 24 inches, which is the same as a base cabinet. This depth accommodates most standard food packaging with room to reach the back item. For a walk-in or reach-in pantry where pull-outs are not specified, 16 to 18 inches is often preferable because it eliminates the need to reach behind a front row of items to access a back row.
Yes. A pantry cabinet can be added to an existing kitchen as part of a refacing or expansion project if there is available wall space. The new pantry cabinet is built to match the existing cabinet doors and finish. If the kitchen is being fully refaced, the pantry cabinet is built at the same time and specified to match the new door style and finish across the entire kitchen.
Interior accessories are designed into the cabinet at the drawing stage. Schedule a consultation and we will plan the full interior alongside the cabinet layout.
