Add a Pantry to Your Indianapolis Kitchen

Kitchen storage space is often a loss in many homes, especially if your house is older and was designed without the modern storage solutions that most are built with today. If you find that your cupboards are overflowing and you’re dodging falling cans when you open the doors, you may want to consider adding a pantry to your kitchen space. The type of pantry you choose depends upon your available space, your budget and your storage needs. One solution is to install a pantry amongst your other cabinets. Some homes have a half wall that separates the kitchen and dining areas. A clever way to make this space useable is by having a kitchen remodel expert install a pantry into the wall. Usually the cabinets in these pantries are about 24 inches deep and include pull out drawers to store canned or packaged goods in. Space varies between homes and it is important to know how much space you and your family will need. Another pantry option is to have an entire room dedicated to this space. Perhaps you can aquire the space from a little-used closet on the other side of the wall, knocking though the wall and incorporating that space into the kitchen. Consult with a kitchen remodeling specialist to see if this is an option for your kitchen layout. If you have an emptry room for this already that is ideal, if not you can always add a small addition to your home for this space. You can combine this space into a multipurpose room such as a pantry and laundry room or a pantry and closet space. These type of pantries often have floor to ceiling shelving with plenty of space to customize according to your needs. Some pantries are becoming quite elaborate, even including microwaves, wine coolers, warming ovens and refrigerators. If you like to entertain and often host large parties, this type of pantry will make entertaining much easier.
