Made the wife happy with a kitchen cabinet alteration

Submitted by essjaypee on Thu, 06/03/2021 - 13:42

Our pantry had shelves 29" wide by 24" deep which made it difficult for my wife to see what was in the very back of the pantry. At her request, I replaced the shelves with full extension drawers at her suggested heights. Now, she can pull out the drawers and get whatever it is she needs.

She has more useable space and my life is a whole lot easier.

I used 3/4" birch plywood scraps left from an earlier project (4'W x 8'H x 18"D, 3-bay cabinet) in the laundry room.

I used self-designed plans and modified them as needed during the build.

She liked the pantry drawers so much the two base cabinets between the sink and the pantry also got the conversion from shelves to drawers.
