PAN-01

Deep cupboard conversion

Many Ghent kitchens inherited a single deep pantry beside the chimney that hides jars in three rows. We redraw that volume into pull-out trays, side-access spice rails, and a front dry-goods face so nothing sits forgotten for a year.

Where the cupboard shares a cold exterior wall, oils and flour stay on interior shelves; sealed cans may sit toward the chill.

Spec notes
  • Pull-out runners rated for full jars
  • Shelf pins adjustable in 32 mm increments
  • Vent gap at base when facing damp canal walls
PAN-02

Galley stack for Quays kitchens

Galley rooms along the Leie rarely allow a walk-in pantry. We stack floor-to-ceiling carcasses with a mid-height ledge for daily prep and upper shelves reserved for rare baking tools.

Door swings are drawn against fridge and oven clearances so two people can cook after a weekend market haul without blocking each other.

PAN-03

Materials for Belgian humidity

Carcasses are specified in sealed birch or lacquered MDF; potatoes and onions sit in steel wire baskets; grains go in glass jars with airtight lids. Soft-close hardware must carry full weight, not empty demo shelves.

Painted fronts may follow ochre or forest tones that sit quietly against warm brick interiors common in Patershol.

Spec notes
  • Moisture-aware baseboards near exterior walls
  • Deposit-bottle niche kept out of the daily counter zone
PAN-04

Shopping-cycle shelf map

Ghent households often buy bulk rice monthly, fresh produce twice a week, and bakery goods daily. We separate those cycles so the daily shelf stays clear while bulk stays high or deep.

A typical package covers measured drawings, shelf schedule, joinery brief, and a labelling map; install supervision can be added when the carpenter is new to pull-outs.
