What size is best?
Unfortunately, in most homes, even new
design, the pantry is an afterthought that gets
delegated to a leftover corner. In an ideal
situation, the following pantry design examples get the
vote of Everything Pantry.
Best pantry design:
Walk-in pantry: the easiest way to
search for food items is to see everything at once. This is easy to do in a
specialized storage area without doors. Pantry organizers like baskets,
bins, and pantry drawers create smaller sections of space that best suits the
food item.
Best walkway width:
40" See our in-depth page with
pantry plan illustrations that
support this clearance.
Best over shelf depth & height:
9" and 12" Where did we come up with
those numbers? See our pantry
shelf discussion page with extensive measurements of various pantry food
items.

"The size of your pantry will depend pretty much on
your reasons for
building it. "....
"To hold everything we wanted to put into it, our pantry
had to be 15'
long and 4 1/2' wide. We used 11 1/2"-deep
shelving along three walls.
On one of the short walls, we put up 4 1/2" shelving to
hold flavorings,
spices, and seeds for sprouting. We were left with
a 31" aisle. Now,
we're sorry we didn't make the aisle six inches wider.
As it is, space is
a little tight and I'm always afraid I'll knock a jar
off a shelf trying
to turn around with my arms full."
