Home mini pantry – how to do it?
It is best to start working on a home pantry by selecting a suitable place, which should be as cool and shaded as possible. This could be an alcove in the kitchen, or hall, or the corner of the kitchen furthest from the window. It is important that there is no radiator, sink, or oven nearby – both homemade preserves and other products that are most often stored in the pantry do not like high temperatures or humidity.
The next step is to properly arrange the selected place. If we have a separate room at our disposal, wooden shelves with high load capacity will be the most practical. However, if our pantry is simply located in the kitchen, open shelves will not work at all – we should rather choose capacious, closed cabinets that will blend in with the rest of kitchen furniture. It may be a good idea to build cabinets up to the ceiling: this will give us extra storage space for storing products that we do not use very often.
In order to make the maximum use of the available space, it is also worth choosing modern solutions, such as a cargo drawer, which can be used both in narrow column cabinets and in large, corner cabinets. We should also take care of correct placement of stored products: those with the shortest shelf life should be placed at the front. The choice of food containers is also important, especially for loose products, which must be tightly closed to keep them fresh.
Why is it worth choosing cargo drawers?
A cargo cabinet is a great solution for a home pantry. The solution is to mount – on special rails – fully extendable wire baskets in the cabinet, ideal for storing food products or kitchen equipment. This kind of wire baskets for cabinets can be mounted almost anywhere: even in very narrow or high cabinets.
Additional advantages of cargo systems are: full extension for easy access even to products stored in the back parts of the cabinet and soft close to protect against uncontrolled slamming of the door. In addition, baskets for kitchen cabinets in cargo systems have a high load capacity, so we can store heavy jars or bottles without fear. When arranging your own pantry, it is worth choosing the cargo system, e.g. Axis Pro, available in our offer. This choice will ensure not only the best use of space, but also an aesthetic finish to your home pantry.
