Narrow Pantry Cabinets

Buying Guide

Pantry cabinets can serve a very useful purpose in your kitchen, particularly if you find yourself running out of storage space. Whether your family is expanding and you don't seem to be able to keep up, or you've moved house to somewhere with less storage and you need to think of creative ways to find extra room, narrow cabinets for the kitchen are versatile, useful and easy to maintain.

What are the advantages of a narrow pantry cabinet?

You can't really buy a large piece of furniture if you don't have much space in the kitchen, but a slim pantry cabinet is the ideal way to get the extra storage space you need while capitalizing on space you wouldn't be able to use anyway. They will often fit into spaces that you didn't think you could ever make use of. If you've tried to make the most of the cupboard space you already have in the kitchen, but it's just not quite cutting it, a cabinet narrow enough to slide into any available space could be the ideal solution for you.

It may also be a possibility for you to look at having two narrow cabinets on either side of a larger piece of furniture, such as a regular-sized pantry or refrigerator. This means that rather than looking for a larger cabinet on one side, you can split the space and have two different sections.

Is customizing the pantry cabinet worth it?

If you can't find a narrow cabinet that seems to fit perfectly in your kitchen, there is always the option of customizing what you want. You can purchase a cabinet which is exactly the right size for the space which is available in your kitchen, and while you're specifying the size, you can also choose other specific features, such as the color, design and pattern. While this will often come with additional costs to a pre-manufactured item, it means that you'll be spending your hard-earned cash on the cabinet that really works for your kitchen.

How to increase storage in a narrow pantry cabinet?

You can use the top of the cabinet for some extra space, and if there are small doors, you can hang things on the back of them to free up space elsewhere in the kitchen. Depending on the type of style you have chosen, you may be able to get much more space than you'd bargained for. Always look around for opportunities to get creative when it comes to saving space in your kitchen – buying a new piece of furniture is always a great chance to look at what you've got and decide how you could use things a little bit more effectively.
