![]() knotty pine pantry This client wanted to extend her existing kitchen cabinets to enclose the refrigerator and provide a much needed food storage pantry. The new cabinets had to match the much older existing cabinets, a very common requirement with remodels. This necessitated the use of knotty pine for the visible wood surfaces (doors, face frame, and finished ends). The doors are traditional (for this style and era) lip doors, and use surface-mounted hinges, with a decorative hammered-copper finish. I'm sorry I don't have a photo of the interior of this very functional pantry. It is no simple big empty cabinet with a few adjustable shelves. The backs of the large doors have narrow adjustable shelves mounted on them. And there is a center partition with two swinging canned-goods, adjustable shelf units. These hold a tremendous amount of food items in a relatively small, and easy-to-reach space. Behind the bottom set of doors are two deep drawers with full-extension slides, for easy access to pots and pans. It is big, over-sized, complicated, full-featured cabinets like this one that make linear foot estimates for cabinetry a joke. |
