Welcome to our walk-in kitchen pantry design collection.
There are 2 main types of kitchen pantries. They are:
First, there are walk-in pantries, which is usually what people mean when they refer to a pantry. It’s a designated room off the kitchen used for storing dry goods, appliances and anything else typically used in the kitchen.
The second type is a built-in pantry which is in the kitchen and is a floor to ceiling set of cupboards designed for storing dry goods.

Simple or Luxurious
Like many rooms, a pantry can be simple with basic wire shelving or it can be luxurious with custom built-in cabinetry, nice lighting, and top-flight flooring.
While luxurious is nice, having even a bare-bones pantry is a super nice too. Storage of any type is a premium feature.
You want good lighting that does not get in the way. Recessed lighting is a very good option because it can be bright and it doesn’t hang down so you won’t whack your head on anything.
What should you store in a kitchen pantry?
That’s the beauty of it. You store whatever you like. Most people use it for dry-goods storage. But you can also store small appliances or anything else.
Best location?
If you have the option, you want to place your pantry right off your kitchen. We have a walk-in pantry, but it’s down a small flight of stairs (we live in a split-level) so it’s a hassle to get to. Don’t get me wrong, we love having it, but in a perfect world it would be right off the kitchen.
Open or closed shelving?
I strongly recommend open shelving. This makes it so much easier to place items away and find them. It also allows you to place more cabinetry in a tighter space because you don’t have to account for swinging cupboard doors.
How much space should you place in between shelves?
It really depends on what you plan to store. If you’re into canning, for instance, and you plan to only store smallish cans/jars, you can get away with 6″ to 10″ in between shelves. However, if you’re going to store larger containers, you’ll want at least 12″ or even more in between the shelves.
Adjustable height shelving is best
One thing to consider is using an adjustable height shelving system. This way as your needs change you can adjust your shelving spacing. We don’t have this, but it would be a very nice feature to have.
Worth the expense?
Yes, absolutely a pantry is worth the expense and cost in space. A cluttered kitchen is not fun to work and it can be frustrating to not have sufficient storage for food and/or small appliances.
With a properly planned pantry, you can ensure you always have plenty of food on hand for any occasion making your weekly shopping a bit easier because you need only get fresh food (milk, eggs, meat, veggies and fruit).

20 Walk In Pantry Ideas You’ll Want to Copy
istockphoto.com
Let’s face it: kitchen cupboards and countertops only have so much room. For foodies, families, bulk shoppers, and kitchen gadget lovers, a walk-in pantry can be a real lifesaver. This small room offers extra storage for canned goods, dry foods, beverages, snacks, and kitchen supplies.
It’s time to beautify this storage space and maximize its usefulness with better pantry organization and storage. Your walk-in pantry is a good investment. Many homeowners want a walk-in pantry—it’s something you can enjoy now, and benefit from later if you ever decide to sell your home.
Keep reading for our 20 walk-in pantry ideas to help keep your kitchen clutter-free.
1. Wrap-Around Shelving Systemistockphoto.com
Looking for walk-in pantry shelving ideas? Organize your walk-in pantry with a shelving system that gives everything a place.
When you know exactly where to find what you’re looking for, you don’t waste time looking for a particular item and you avoid re-buying items you already have. Better organization instantly makes a pantry look nicer and makes more efficient use of the vertical space that’s available. It’s a practical investment that enables you to store heavy or seldom-used items on lower shelves, and more commonly used items within arm’s reach.
2. Pocket Door
istockphoto.com
Doors on hinges may do home chefs a disservice. Unless a door is closed, it takes up more room than it needs to. This walk-in pantry idea is to swap out a traditional door with a pocket door, enabling you to keep the doorway clear without a doorstop. With a door that simply slides out of the way, you can quickly pop in and out of the pantry while preparing a meal.
3. Stand-Alone Wire Shelvingamazon.com
Built-in shelving looks beautiful in a walk-in pantry, but it can be a little pricey.
Small or narrow walk-in pantries may not require all-around shelving, and a standalone unit works very nicely, offering extra storage in a small space. A wire shelving rack is easier to keep clean as well, as any crumbs or spice spills tend to slip through gaps and down to the floor. A quick dust and sweep keeps these shelves and the pantry looking their best. These sturdy, highly rated wire shelves are available on Amazon.
istockphoto.com
How often do you use your rice cooker or electric mixer? If it’s not an item you use daily, it’s cluttering up your countertop or taking up valuable space in your kitchen cupboards. Relocate these small appliances to a dedicated space in your pantry instead. People who have kitchens with walk-in pantries will find this idea to be a fantastic storage solution for all your kitchen gadgets that need a home.

5. Lazy Susanscontainerstore.
com
Spice jars, cooking oils, sprinkles, and other smaller bottles and containers can get lost on a jam-packed shelf. Rather than having to pull out multiple jars, cans, and bottles to get to the product you need, make your walk-in pantry more user-friendly by displaying smaller items on a lazy susan. Rotate the turntable to swiftly locate and pull out the item you need without moving other items out of the way first. These lazy susans are available from The Container Store.
6. Organize by Expiration Dateistockphoto.com
First in, first out is how restaurants and grocery stores stock their perishables. Putting older items in front of, or on top of, newer packages of the same goods ensures you’re using up the products that expire first. This type of organization saves money and generates less waste as it encourages you to use up an open package before opening a new one. Sorting your walk-in pantry this way also makes it more efficient to clean out, as you know the items on top expire first.
istockphoto.com
For walk-in pantries that have the space, a narrow countertop is a convenience you won’t want to be without. It also looks sharp, making your pantry resemble a kitchenette.
A countertop offers you a place for small kitchen appliances that may not be used every day, like toasters or espresso machines. It’s also a terrific place to collect and sort your items before bringing them into the kitchen, and it gives you a place to put grocery bags full of pantry supplies.
8. Cover Shelvesamazon.com
An affordable and easy way to freshen up the appearance of a walk-in pantry is to use a shelf liner or cover. Not just aesthetically pleasing, shelf liners can be practical too, offering a nonslip grip for your pantry items.
If you’re apt to frequently change up the look in your pantry, selecting a shelf cover that’s non-adhesive makes it easy to swap out different designs or materials. Adhesive laminate shelf liners, like this highly rated option available on Amazon, easily wipe clean with a damp cloth and brighten up the shelf space in the pantry.
istockphoto.com
Think of your walk-in pantry as an extension of your kitchen. Creating a cohesive style that flows from your kitchen into the pantry makes a home look more elegant (and the pantry doesn’t look like an afterthought). Use the same colors, tiles, cupboards, handles, or lighting fixtures to tie the two rooms together. When your pantry reflects the same style, you’ll want to leave the door open to show off its beauty.

10. Use the Back of the Doorcontainerstore.com
Being smart about the available space you have in your walk-in pantry means you look at all opportunities for storage—especially if the pantry is compact. If you don’t have a pocket door for the pantry, there’s usable storage space on the back of the door.
This can be a great place to add some hooks for aprons or install a door rack, which turns the area behind the door into functional space.
Install this over-the-door rack from The Container Store to help fit everything you need into the pantry.
homedepot.com
You’ve heard of a statement wall, but what about a statement door? Add some extra charm to the pantry with a decorative door to make it stand out from closet and washroom doors. Decorative doors come in a variety of styles and sizes, so before ordering a door, make sure it fits the doorway (also ensure you order a door that has the hardware on the correct side). One of our favorite decorative pantry doors is this one from The Home Depot.
12. Build a Closet in the Kitchenistockphoto.com
A kitchen with wasted space is a sign that an overhaul is needed. If there’s a nook, corner, or even unused space under the stairs, it can be converted into a kitchen closet, or a modest kitchen pantry. If you’re a serious DIYer, you can build a frame, install the drywall, attach the door, and all the little steps in between over a few days.
californiaclosets.com
Shelving is practical, but cabinetry elevates the appearance of a walk-in pantry. Adding doors or drawers makes the pantry look less cluttered, while leaving your food supplies and kitchen gadgets easily accessible. Cabinetry that matches or complements the style in the kitchen creates a cohesive aesthetic through the home. The cabinets in the above photo are available from California Closets.
14. Don’t Overstockistockphoto.com
One of the great joys of a pantry is its visual nature. When preparing your grocery list, a well-organized pantry makes it easy to take stock of what you need and what you’re running low on. Organization reduces overspending and buying more than you require. Though pantries offer additional storage space, they still have limitations. Avoid stuffing your pantry with multiples of the same item to keep your pantry neat and clutter-free.
15. Clear, Stackable Food Storageamazon.
com
Airtight containers help keep food, spices, and baking supplies fresh. Investing in clear, stackable food storage containers is a worthwhile investment for two big reasons. One, you can see exactly how much of a particular item you have and can add any low-stock items to your grocery list. Two, stacking containers make the most of the space you have available while keeping the stacked items stable and secure. We like these highly rated OXO containers, available on Amazon.
16. Store More Spicesetsy.com
A true home chef has a vast collection of seasonings and spices to make their food memorable. But the one drawback of having so many flavors in a kitchen is having enough space for them. Storing every spice in a cupboard makes it tedious to find the one you’re looking for. Spices should be stored in a specialty spice rack so you can always find the seasoning you need. Midwest Classic Crafts’ door-mounted spice rack on Etsy enables you to store dozens of spice bottles in a convenient location in the pantry.

17. Cart for Mobile Storagewayfair.com
A versatile cart levels up your walk-in pantry game. Load it up with the items you need from the pantry to avoid going back and forth from the kitchen, use it as a serving caddy, or even as a makeshift drink cart when guests are over. There are a multitude of ways a pantry cart adds value and convenience to your home, and it’s one classy addition to your next dinner party. This sleek kitchen cart is available on Wayfair.
18. Ensure Adequate Lightingistockphoto.com
Dingy pantry lighting really puts a damper on this space. If you’re squinting to read labels, or it’s too dark to tell if the room is clean or dirty, it’s time to revamp the lighting in the pantry. It may be as simple as changing to a brighter bulb, or perhaps the entire fixture should be replaced with a stylish and bright ceiling light. Spending a little money to improve the lighting makes a tremendous difference in the pantry’s appearance.
amazon.com
Having a supply of fresh produce on hand makes it easier to grab a healthy snack. Instead of overflowing the kitchen fruit bowl, store extra vegetables and fruit in the pantry. When you shop for groceries, bring along reusable produce bags to eliminate the need for plastic, and use these bags to store your bounty of produce neatly in the walk-in pantry (without the apples and oranges rolling away). You can find these reusable mesh produce bags on Amazon.
20. Keep a Step Ladder Nearbyamazon.com
Home chefs come in all sizes, and let’s face it, some of those higher shelves are even out of reach for tall folks. When you make the most of your pantry space, your shelving and storage may put some items up high. Tucking a small step ladder into the corner of your walk-in pantry ensures you’re always able to reach what you need. We like this Delxo aluminum ladder from Amazon because it has a high weight capacity, stability, and it only weighs 9 pounds.
Pantry in an apartment: 95 design photos of a small pantry in an apartment and in a house, ideas for a pantry in the kitchen
Pantry is an essential attribute of a kitchen where people often cook a lot.

28. In the same rhythm
There can be as many high sections as the kitchen allows. Thanks to the glossy facades in this project, they are well disguised as wall panels.
thea home inc
29. Ladder with insurance
If the upper shelves of the pantry are difficult to reach, you will have to use a ladder. In this project, it is fixed on the top shelf and moves freely along the railing - this eliminates the risk that the ladder will fall at the most inopportune moment.
30. Floating look

Harvey Jones Kitchens
60. No handles
Saving space can be done with simple tricks, such as removing handles from drawers. In this project, open shelves complement drawers with slots instead of handles.

Additional shelves are a popular, but not the only way to use storage doors: metal structures also work well for this task, allowing you to place lids and other kitchen utensils on the doors.

A mirror in the worktop area and a light finish will help visually enlarge the pantry.

Baskets and trays

72. Freedom of access
In this model of the closet-pantry doors are hidden in the side blocks and do not block the passage.
Barnes Vanze Architects, Inc.
73. Asymmetric doors
If the pantry is hidden behind sliding doors, the leaves do not have to be the same in width - sometimes a slight disproportion is appropriate. In this example, the asymmetry allows the sashes to move freely and not rest against the walls.
Woodstock Furniture
74. Accordion Door
Foldable closet door is a convenient solution for small spaces or rooms with narrow aisles.

79. Filling to the max
This storage system looks truly massive thanks to the clever organization of drawers, but if you close all the fronts, it turns out that it does not take up much space.

80. Pantry inside and out
Despite the fact that in this house a separate room was provided for the pantry, storage systems appeared outside it too - a ladder attached to the railing helps to get to the upper shelves.
81. A stool to help
However, an ordinary stool will also help you get to the upper shelves. Moreover, open shelves allow you to quickly locate the desired item.

87. At different depths
In this pantry, the lower drawers and the upper shelves have different depths: thanks to this technique, a small multi-tiered shelf was fixed on the inner surface of the door.

88. In all directions
Storage systems do not have to be arranged linearly or allocate an entire room for storage: in this project, it is more like a decorative pylon, and laconic facades do not draw attention to the drawers.

89. Useful sidewalls
Not only the front but also the side “works” for this cabinet: shallow shelves are placed on it behind a conventional hinged door.
90. Behind the bookcase
An elegant and unusual solution: the entrance to the pantry is framed by bookshelves, and thanks to glass doors and a transom, natural light enters the room.

93. Hidden corner
It is sometimes difficult to find the optimal role for corners. In this project, shelves were placed in the corner - given the small depth of the adjacent cabinet, it will not be difficult to get the necessary dishes.

Kitchen pantry: how to plan storage space
The home pantry is the ideal place to store food, crockery, kitchen utensils and other items that need to be kept away from prying eyes.
The main thing is to find a place for her.
propodval.ru
Separate food storage makes it easier to keep the kitchen organized, but it must be properly designed to perform its function well. It is worth defining your expectations. Do you dream of sausage loops hanging from the ceiling, or do you primarily care about storing large, unsightly bottles of water and pet food in your pantry. In the first case, you are dealing with a real pantry, and you will have to take care of a specific microclimate that will allow you to store meat, vegetables, fruits and canned food without worrying about their deterioration. The second is just a place in the kitchen or next to the kitchen to store dry foods.

Pantry supports the kitchen
If the kitchen is large in your own home and has everything that is used daily, the pantry complements it from time to time. It can then be a bit remote, located in the garage or under the stairs. We go there once or twice a day, sometimes less.
However, if there are few cabinets in the kitchen (because of the window or because of the small size), the pantry takes on other functions. We often store there not only food, but also utensils and equipment used every day, which means that we enter them at least several times a day. Such a pantry must be next to the kitchen.

Sometimes the kitchen is connected to the living room, and in its design the main emphasis is on aesthetics. What it lacks in functionality makes up for in the pantry. During the party, we store dirty dishes there, as well as hold events that should be hidden from the eyes of the guests. There is room for the main sink, trash can or kitchen towels. This pantry needs to be bigger. It would also be nice if she had a second independent entrance from the corridor, which would make it easier to shop and take out the garbage.

A separate kitchen cabinet is a good way to store
In houses and apartments, a pantry can be arranged inside the kitchen.
If you like a pantry behind a closed door, this is a type of kitchen cabinet (it can be very tall). Several metal baskets are built into the entire depth of the cabinet - and you have a complete picture of the condition of the stored products. Modern kitchen furniture also has deep drawers that will replace food shelves.

Drawer cabinets will improve the use of kitchen furniture
Cabinets have modular dimensions, for example, 15, 20 and 30 cm, so placing them in the kitchen does not interfere with the overall composition. We can determine the number of shelves / baskets and the distance between them. It is worth measuring the height of bottles, milk cartons, food packaging, so that the drawer or cabinet space is loaded as much as possible.

Large drawers of various depths and widths are also an excellent solution for using a hard-to-reach surface or previously unused space. In well-designed systems, drawers can even be hidden in the base of the cabinets, making the most of the space.

A place to store perishable food
To create the right microclimate in the pantry, there must be a constant, low temperature (maximum 16 ° C) and humidity maintained at 55-65%. Such parameters can be achieved by designing the room as unheated and without access to daylight, since it contributes to temperature fluctuations. Windows would not be welcome in this place for any other reason. They take up a wall surface that can be used for shelves. However, you can make small fans under the ceiling above the shelves, used for the necessary ventilation in this room. In an unheated pantry, the air must be dry so that the stored food remains in good condition for a long time. The low temperature favors the condensation of water vapor, so the moisture must be vented to the outside, there must be a constant flow of air. On the wall under the ceiling there should be air ducts and a diffuser for gravity ventilation (in a window or wall) or slots in the door,

Basement pantry
A classic pantry should have massive walls and floors made of materials that store heat well. It is desirable to be located in the basement, and in the absence of a basement - in the cooler part of the house, preferably from the north or northeast. It is better not to build it from drywall. The walls separating this room from the adjacent part of the house (especially heated ones) should be made of brick or stone. These materials have the best thermal insulation parameters. They will not allow excess heat into the pantry.

Shelving in the pantry
A good solution is to make racks for a specific measurement. This investment will certainly pay off in terms of ease of use.

Pantry in the kitchen
The pantry, accessible directly from the kitchen, is a great convenience for the person preparing the meal. You can easily get the items you need or use them to store prepared meals so they don't have to be in plain sight (for example, during holidays or family reunions).
You will appreciate this especially in open kitchens where work surfaces are on display. Direct access from the pantry to the kitchen is not recommended only in tiny kitchens (small kitchenettes), in which the extra space is better used to increase the work surface.
happymodern.ru
Furnishing the pantry
The pantry should be finished in such a way that it can be easily kept clean. Floors and walls should be covered with ceramic or other non-porous material that is resistant to washing and settling on it. The same applies to shelves and shelves - they cannot absorb moisture. An MDF board will not work in this role, while waterproof plywood, wood, plastic, and metal will do. It is worth taking care that the lighting in the pantry is even and installed close enough to the ceiling.

Pantry shape and dimensions
When planning a pantry, pay attention to its shape and dimensions. The best use of space is by placing buildings next to two parallel walls.
Shelves set in an L make corner access difficult, unless you place shelves, they should be shallow on one wall and deeper on the other.
Small and narrow pantry
If the room is long, narrow and has a door on the shorter wall, place deeper shelves next to the wall in front of the door and narrow on one of the longer walls. A refrigerator or other large appliance (bottles of water, large microwave) would also be better placed at the back of the pantry so there is no problem in the aisle. The refrigerator should not stand in the corner, but enough space should be left in front of it to open the door, sit down and pull out the drawer. Requires about 120 cm.
happymodern.ru
Convenient pantry
If we influence the shape of the pantry, make sure you can install two rows of shelves on both sides of the entrance - for example, on one side, deeper shelves (45 cm), on the other, more small (20 cm). To deal with those above the floor, you must bend or crouch.
The distance between opposing building blocks should allow this, so it should be at least 90 cm. The wall opposite the entrance can be used for hooks, baskets, stools, or other items that are easy to move to make way for the shelves behind them. The length of the pantry can be any, but already 120 cm allows you to store a lot of food, dishes and utensils. Thus, even an area less than 1.9sq. M, if well planned, will greatly facilitate storage in the kitchen.
Understairs pantry
Understairs pantry has a variable height and is quite narrow, which limits its functionality and requires reasonable use of space. The width of the stairs in single-family houses rarely exceeds 100 cm. The space further narrows (up to 90 cm) the walls that make the room stand out. The door to such a pantry may be lower than the standard one, but if there is another door leaf nearby, there will be dissonance (unless we make it from a different material or as furniture, then the difference will not be obvious).
