In this video, I will be building my wife a pantry for her kitchen. It just so happens we found a hollow space in our house perfect for a pantry. Watch this video to see how I turn this wasted space into a beautiful pantry.

*Took 2 to assemble and 3 to lift into place **MyseIf.Furniture** Directions were pretty clear. A large space is needed to layout all the pieces. The cabinet is holding up well after many weeks of use.*

Well done! This was the exact video I’ve been looking for. I bought a house without a pantry and have been looking for a way to add one. I have a space about that size that I’ll have to frame in, but I’m so much more emboldened to make that happen now that I’ve seen this!! Thank you so much!

Great job!! My husband is also building me a pantry. We have one but it’s in the laundry room which has always drove me crazy lol. We have to entrance ways to our other living room from the kitchen and the one entrance by the laundry room he is closing off and creating my own pantry. Can’t wait. Love yours. I know your wife appreciates it because I have a husband that does the same for me, and I appreciate him.

I'm getting close to finishing up the other side now. I ended up building a larger bathroom on the back of our house and I will be putting shelves for storage on the other side of the pantry.

@@SimonSaysDIY: Agreed! I was having a lot of electrical done, and my electrician said a lot of people put an outlet in their pantries, which I went with. My pantry is bigger, so my microwave lives in there, as will my Vitamix (whenever I get some 8” drawer slides)… the outlet turned out to be a great suggestion!!

Great job what was the width of ur shelves and how much clearance between each shelves

@donnybrook22 4 года назад

This is exactly what I want to do with our small pantry. What is the width (or height) of the strips you put in the front of the shelves and the same for the back and side supports? Is it 2 inches?

@SimonSaysDIY 4 года назад

Yes, these strips were 1.3/4in wide. Good luck on your project!

@amberjeanhufflepuff Год назад

Such a great video, thank you, UNTILL… Why did you paint the inside of that beautiful old door??🤦🏼‍♀️

@pinkcashmere1908 2 года назад

This is nice!how did you know that tiu had this wasted space...how were you able to determine you could cut the wall and find that large space that had a floor?

@SimonSaysDIY 2 года назад

It can be difficult and I actually lived in this house for 2 years before I noticed it. I was able to check the room on the back side of this empty space and I measured it out and it was missing 2 feet of space. I also have a basement and was able to go below and make sure that there wasn't a chimney, pipes, wiring, or Air Ducts running through the space. Thanks!

@jasminebajaj4634 2 года назад

Like your pantry room. How much cost?

@angieredmond2499 3 года назад

I couldn’t watch with sound on so apologies if you covered this, by why on earth did you drywall the inside only to close it off and not use the entire inside? Is that going to be opened up on the other side?

@SimonSaysDIY 3 года назад

No problem. I opened it up on the other side for shelving in our bathroom I was remodeling. Thanks for watching! You can see the other side here. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LCD8Z6huvIE.html

@naterush5938 2 года назад

Do the face plates just tack onto the shelves? Are they secured against the walls at all? Many thanks!

@daddyshart999 Год назад

@newtonkwan8835 3 года назад

Thanks for the video. Planning on doing something similar at my house. Can you tell us how did you secure your door jamb (the long piece of wood that your door hinge will be fastened onto). I didn't see any screws and looks like you nail it along the whole piece. What is behind it? Is there a stud?

@SimonSaysDIY 3 года назад

Good luck with your project! The door jams were mounted to the studs I installed to frame in the new door way. I used finish nails to mount the door jams. I also used long screws on the door hinges that reached to the stud as well.

@janetstone236 4 года назад

Awesome video! Thank you so much! I have to build a pantry in my 1965 A-frame or 'move it' as I moved a wall, which closed the old pantry area. (I would correct your typo - 'wasted space' not 'waisted space'. it was definitely a 'a great unused pocket of space! Great change! (I wanted to see the bathroom side -is that somewhere else?)

@SimonSaysDIY 4 года назад

Thanks so much! We are actually renovating the bathroom now and have it just about finished. If you are interested i have posted a video for each stage through the renovation. Here is the playlist with the bathroom videos ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YdL9lB40JF4.html Also thanks for pointing out the typo! I just fixed it.

@jasonshockley6206 Год назад

Hi! Great video! I’m going to be doing a similar project soon- curious if you used a 16ga or 18ga nail gun for the face plates? And if you remember.. how long were the nails you used?

@jacquelineblake759 4 года назад

Hi! This was an awesome video. I would like to have this done in my kitchen, but not sure if there is an open space to place it. How would I find out?

@SimonSaysDIY 4 года назад

That is hard to answer without seeing the space you have. However, if you have a conner in the room that is not being used it can be a great place to install one or if you have a floor kitchen cabinet that can be removed, just remove one section and replace it with a floor to ceiling cabinet/pantry. Doing this would likely triple your storage space from the section.

@SD-su8hg 3 года назад

Great work! May I ask, how wide is the antique door you used?

@SimonSaysDIY 3 года назад

The door was 24in. I had to trim it down a few inches to get it to fit the space available.

@pamelaweston5535 2 года назад

Great job. How far apart did you space the shelves?

@SimonSaysDIY 2 года назад

I measured a few of the common items that we wanted to store so that I could space them out with little wasted space. The two bottom shelves were 14in for larger or taller items. 3 at 9.5in for medium items and cans can stack double high and the last one is 7.5in. Thanks!

@@SimonSaysDIY Thanks for the info.

@suzieuda 4 года назад

I guess I watch too much murder mysteries/scary movies on TV/Netflix that when you were puzzled as to why the previous owner decided to wall up this space, I instantly thought of the possibility of a body being buried there or that that particular nook is haunted. Hahaha. Sorry! I'll keep watching the video because I'm looking for ideas for a small pantry 😉

@SimonSaysDIY 4 года назад

hahaha, so funny! When I cut it open I really did not know what I was going to find lol and had some of those thoughts.

How did you know that was open like that?

@SimonSaysDIY 4 года назад

On the other side of the wall is our bathroom and I it seemed like some space was missing so I measured the rooms and found there was some extra space. You can always cut a small hole to check and patch it back up if your wrong.

@SimonSaysDIY 4 года назад

If you're allowed to, a fresh coat of paint can really clean up a closet of pantry! Also, if you have room you could always make or buy a freestanding set of shelves for food storage that you can take with you if you move to a different place. :)

@jewdd1989 4 года назад

I loved this pantry build because you made two pantries out of one existing for both kitchen and bathroom. Btw you never ever paint an antique door!!! It would’ve been far more appealing had you striped the old crap off, sanded and just poly’d the original wood door!!!

@SimonSaysDIY 4 года назад

Thanks! Agreed, it was sad to paint it however all of the other old doors had been painted before i owned the place so I wanted this door to match the others.
