A good design is not enough to achieve a comfortable, practical and functional kitchen. It is also necessary to adequately distribute the space and incorporate elements that allow you to store food and utensils, organise everything in a practical and simple manner and being able to access them in a convenient and easy way.

For this, optimally organising the pantry is essential. To achieve this, there is no better ally than kitchen fittings. These elements have become indispensable to achieve a really successful and practical kitchen project.

 

Types of kitchen pantry

A kitchen pantry is a space where food that doesn’t need refrigeration is stored, as well as all types of kitchen utensils and equipment. Currently, the concept of a pantry is a broad one. A wide range of options and styles exists, among which stand out:

  • A separate room located, normally, next the kitchen. This type of pantry is the most traditional and classic concept which, nevertheless, has been losing popularity nowadays, in part because homes tend to be smaller and smaller everyday.
  • Integrated into the kitchen. The storage area is separate in some way from the kitchen but has some kind of continuity solution, normally through a glass enclosure that lets you see the inside from the kitchen.
  • Furniture, shelves and other elements. When there is not enough space, the pantry can be a part of the kitchen and only made of shelves, cabinets or fittings used to place bottles, food or kitchenware in a functional and practical manner.

 

The importance of having a comfortable pantry

The most important and appreciated feature of a pantry is convenience, which means that all the food and kitchen tools can be stored, organised and taken out easily and quickly when needed.

The keys that must never be missing from the design and organization of a pantry that aspires to be convenient and functional are the following:

 

  • A great variety of elements are used to facilitate separation and organization of food and kitchen tools: shelves, drawers, removable bars as well as kitchen fittings.
  • It is very important that the shelves can be adjusted by the users according to the size of the products they want to store.
  • The shelves or bars of more complicated access, for example, those on the top part, should be dedicated to placing those objects that are not used regularly. This way, we can save the more comfortable places for the food and utensils used daily.
  • Give great importance to removable drawers of great capacity.
  • Illumination in the pantry is also essential. Therefore, it is very important that the room has a correct general illumination and especially in the shelves and drawers area. A highly recommended option is placing LED strips inside the cabinets, especially in those that are very deep, and therefore, can be darker.

 

Kitchen fittings to distribute the pantry space in a correctly

Optimal distribution of the pantry is, many times, the added value factor which makes the difference between an acceptable pantry and another one that really stands out for its practicality and functionality.

One of the most effective ways to achieve a space distribution improvement are the kitchen fittings. It is possible to find in the market a wide variety of types and models, of which we highlight:

 

  • Full extraction drawers of great capacity. This type of drawers is ideal for pantries since they combine comfort with a high capacity and easiness in food and utensils distribution.
  • Corner fittings. Give corners and small spaces great usefulness and make them much more comfortable and accessible.
  • Kitchen columns and blinds. They allow for the use of vertical spaces of large depth, that, otherwise, would simply be dead spots.
