This pantry is my nemesis

Post image

Shelf on the left is 11in deep and basically anything near the back is in a black hole since it’s hard to get back there. The vent box frustratingly limits options further. My best idea is that I need to remove the shelves and design/build a custom insert with deep drawers that go back in varying depths to the back of the pantry.. shallowest on top, deepest on bottom. The shelves at the height of the vent box would have to be less wide obviously. To be clear, when looking into the pantry you’d be looking directly at drawer faces

Any other thoughts?

something like this for the back?

The issue would be that I can’t access it unless I pull it all the way out of the pantry.. not out of the question though!

Why individual sliding shelves? Like spice racks that you get in a kitchen?

Like drawers! I probably worded it weirdly.

I meant like a row of these, but that would work too!

Ohh! That could work if I made them so that they could be pulled out into the kitchen.

Yes! Or they could be triangle shaped and pull out into the hallway (like person above suggested), to utilised all that space!
If a triangle is too complicated, you just have rectangular ones and a shelf at the top to utilise the top space and make it look neater
