*Took 2 to assemble and 3 to lift into place **MyseIf.Furniture** Directions were pretty clear. A large space is needed to layout all the pieces. The cabinet is holding up well after many weeks of use.*
Very true! Not pictured is the magnet catch I added at the top. It also got pretty heavy when we added everything inside of it so it's hard for the kids to move.
Love it!!! My hubby & I are watching this together ❤. He says your wife was in the room when you said "nicely corrected" 😉 we are doin this TODAY!! Cross your fingers it comes out as nice & I don't have to "NICELY CORRECT any size flush" lmbo 🤣
I love the name of your channel. I really enjoyed watching your video. Probably because you do things like I do. I clicked on a video before yours and the dude started right in talking about dados and what not. I couldn’t turn it off fast enough! If I was a woodworker I wouldn’t be surfing RUclips trying to learn how to make things. Anyway, your video really helped me, thank you.
Thanks, I was looking for ideas for my remodeled kitchen and came across this video. It was very helpful in giving me and idea on what to do with that wasted space between the fridge.
Just watched this, going to design and make this for more storage, may I made a suggestion? MUSIC: not needed. LOVED hearing your talk about how you were making this slide out, but the music was unnecessary. Not sure why all (us) RUclipsrs think that music needed. It isn't. Thank you. I mean this in the kindest way, hearing you TELL us about how you are making this is MUCH better than any music to fill the gaps when you aren't talking.
I'm extremely grateful & happy that I found you. im ask my husband to make me 1 of these. I have a question, are the small bottles falling out?. I'm not sure but I was thinking you put all the "guard rails" in front too low. Thanks so much for sharing this.
Renovating my bathroom and there is a small space in one corner of the shower enclosure. Instead of just closing off that wall, something like this would be perfect.
If you ever make another one of these, maybe put in adjustable peg shelves and thin wire on the outside to retain the spices. That's what I will be doing in my home once we get moved in. 💖💖
Love the finish project! I'm hoping to be able to keep it open on both sides for ease of access from either side and I love the casters on bottom to pull it out as one unit. I think I can do this! Any suggestions or lessons learned feel free to share with me if you get a moment. This is for my RV and I may need to the wire type shelving vs wood depending on weight and costs! Yours turned out beautiful! Thanks again for sharing!!✌😊🤞
Great job, but I have a couple questions , I made one of these too, plz keep in mind I’m a 66 yr old widow and have no clue what I’m doing but I’m trying to DIY 🤷🏼♀️ 1. Mine was the same dimensions as yours, I’m afraid to use mine because the castors are so close together it will not stand alone. Does yours lean on the wall? Is there any way to put like a stop on the floor so it doesn’t get pulled out to far and top over? How would I go about doing that? Hint to your wife, put some “ooh la la “ to hers and put some really pretty paper on both sides of the 1/4” board so when she pulls it out it’s all prettyfied! Wrapping paper , contact paper , some pretty napkins, fabric works great too. Cheap alternatives, yes I’m a crafting fool. Lol Thank you if you reply! God Bless
Thanks for the interest! I didn't show it in the video, but I created a channel at the top and bottom of the backing piece. It was about 1" in height and ran the width of the structure. I then screwed a block of wood into the wall and added a magnet catch to the block. It works great as a stop for me! Thanks so much for your interest!
how do you stop the pantry from toppling and scraping against the surface of the fridge or the wall, have you used some sort of metal track that guides the pantry when it is being pulled in and out, if so could you show what you used, love the final job it looks amazing.
I left a channel at the top and bottom and screwed a piece of scrap wood to the wall. It acts as a stop. More simply I don't pull it all the way out, the stop only kind of works :) hope that helps!
Hey nice job man I am looking to do this ! What wood did you use to keep all the spices in ? That strip that you mentioned. I’d like to do this the way you did .
I have a 2010 Dutchmen class C with a very deep pantry on right side of my fridge. It has a few built in shelves but it's so deep...i can just reach the back wall with my finger tips so I REALLY appreciate you posting this vid. I'm going to try to make a pantry that pulls out with diff drawers but it can all pull out at once..whichever is easier and cheaper! Did you have shelves you had to remove or was it like a broom closet? Also, what kind of rolling mechanism did you decide in and why? Any suggestions you can give me ate greatly appreciated!! I believe my measurements are about the same as yours height wize but about double in width. I have about an inch on each side that makes opening smaller than the actual inside width! I'm hoping someone can offer advice how to remover the shelves in the pantry now or should I build separate slide outs and use the shelves already in place?! I wanted one piece that pulls out and visible from each side just like ya'll decided. I need light as possible to so should I try to find the metal sliding things or use light weight wood veneer of some sort then the wheels like you did?
Mine was actually just dead space next to the fridge. The rolling mechanism is just small casters on the bottom, it's completely free-standing. I would suggest using drawer slides- full extension if you can.
lol awesome man im right where u had a sticking point on the dowels, i had to go back to swap for thinner ones cuz the orig. too thick and caused issues pulling and putting spice bottles in and out . I wish i saw this b4, i used dowels, i really like the strips you attached to act as barriers. you had 4 inshed i had 5 inch to work with with 30 inch of overall unit depth and i got lucky i used 1x5 and took baseboard off leghth of wall where shelf will slide inand out. How did it work out with the casters in a row , not side by side?
Love this idea!!! The side of the fridge buts next to my dining table and I was hoping this can also serve as a free-standing wall between the fridge and dining table/area. Do you know this will work as free-standing?
I built this with my husband. We put command strip hooks at the back of the fridge to catch the lip when you pull in out. One side has a board just like in this video and the other side is open and the hooks catch it so it doesn’t pull all the way out. It’s really steady too!
im doin the same at the moment slightly bigger with a cupboard over the top of the fridge i was thinkin about adding a drawer runner on the top top stop the cupboard bein pulled out to far an falling over
I think it will depend on your space. You'll want to pay attention to where the vent is (mine is on the back), so I just leave it pulled away from the wall just a bit plus I have a lot of space above, problem soved!
Depends on number of shelves. I used about 8 1x4 pine boards. Take your measurements and draw it out to see how many boards you need, then add 10-20% in the event of a mistake.
I thought about building one of these even though my fridge is on a corner rather than a nook but still thought the pantry on the corner side would be great for extra storage, however the heat produced by the fridge motor made me think twice about storing anything next to it for I'm afraid it might ruin my spices or dry food 🤷🏽♀️
Interesting thought, I've had it installed now for several months and have had 0 issues. I do have space above the fridge where hot air can escape. If you have a cabinet above where the fridge is you could "vent" it by cutting a hole into the bottom of the cabinet. That could allow some air to escape upward.
Yes it is top heavy- you can’t pull it all the way out. I would still do wheels as I want to have that full extension without paying for the really big slides. Things I would tweak now: I would build it a little different with new skills I have acquired, I would have done the shelves based on what I need not on even spacing and I would make it a little wider.
To help your fridge last longer than 5 years, you need airflow around it of at least 1". Clean the back out regularly, especially if you have pets. Blocking it off might look nice and might help with storage issues but will cost you an expensive appliance in the long run I think.
You should have just remodeled the pantry next to it wouldve turned out way better. That sliding one will soon scratch your fridge and will give you a headache.
Great idea, plans are in play for a complete kitchen remodel. I also don't care about the side of this fridge (I bought it scratched). That corner will become a part of the bank of cabinets and be a full-build walk in pantry.

Awesome
I am definitely going to build on for my kitchen👍
Next up, baby proofing the sliding pantry. Great work!

Exactly what I imagined for my space! Thanks!
Thanks, I was looking for ideas for my remodeled kitchen and came across this video. It was very helpful in giving me and idea on what to do with that wasted space between the fridge.
So great to hear! We're a couple months into using it and no regrets and only a couple small things I would change.
instablaster...
Great job. My nephew made me one for my birthday! I love it!❤️
That's so cool! Happy Birthday!

Nice explanation about how dowels would've taken up too much space. Looks good! And seems like you-all likes your spices. : )
Thanks!
Love this. I started a shelf similar to this idea for underneath my island. Same principle. 👍
Thank you for the feedback, some day when I redo my kitchen I'll do the toe kick cabinet as well--no wasted space!
Love the project. From the look of it. You didn't mess it up! :) I now want one
Glad you like it--you can do it it's not complicated!
I'm extremely grateful & happy that I found you. im ask my husband to make me 1 of these. I have a question, are the small bottles falling out?. I'm not sure but I was thinking you put all the "guard rails" in front too low. Thanks so much for sharing this.
Nice job!
Great video! Glad I stumble to it. Will probably add a drawer slide or something to keep it from leaving marks on my cabinets.
Glad to hear it! I was going to do a drawer slide, but ended up just leaving it the way it is for ease sake. Good luck!
Did you make this? Did you do bottom mount or side mount slides?
@@jonichatriand7824 did the side mount. Casters at the bottom.
Renovating my bathroom and there is a small space in one corner of the shower enclosure. Instead of just closing off that wall, something like this would be perfect.
Great job just what I need!
If you ever make another one of these, maybe put in adjustable peg shelves and thin wire on the outside to retain the spices. That's what I will be doing in my home once we get moved in. 💖💖
Very good idea, thanks
Cool idea. Thank you for sharing your thought process as you problem solved your challenges!
I appreciate it.
I was gonna say the same thing on the dowel but your way will work
awesome build. love how it turned out. :)
Nice, what a good idea. Thanks for sharing
You're welcome, thanks for the comment!

Just keep in mind that if it's open on both sides it will be a challenge to keep things stable.
Nice job

@@DIYDREW well what about like a piece if wood in the wall top and bottom with a drawer slider? I am still planing mine and her i am giving ideas lol
@@sharoncourt75 good idea

Very interesting
Hey nice job man I am looking to do this ! What wood did you use to keep all the spices in ? That strip that you mentioned. I’d like to do this the way you did .
I used common 1x4 pine from Home Depot. The strip is called a furring strip and measures about 1" in diameter.
You did an awesome job. do you deliver, I would love one.

It could. But only if you had a way to keep it in track, it's pretty unstable when left to it's own devices.
I built this with my husband. We put command strip hooks at the back of the fridge to catch the lip when you pull in out. One side has a board just like in this video and the other side is open and the hooks catch it so it doesn’t pull all the way out. It’s really steady too!
Nice I love
im doin the same at the moment slightly bigger with a cupboard over the top of the fridge i was thinkin about adding a drawer runner on the top top stop the cupboard bein pulled out to far an falling over
I was going to do the drawer runner but decided not to in order for it to remain flexible.
Sure you don't have a thicker Sharpie?
Loooool I came here just for this comment. Woooowww...so surprised no one pointed that out before 🤣
I’d dearly love that pantry space but always thought that space around the he fridge is for airflow.
I think it will depend on your space. You'll want to pay attention to where the vent is (mine is on the back), so I just leave it pulled away from the wall just a bit plus I have a lot of space above, problem soved!
i love you andrew im ur biggest fan
you are so talented
Thanks for hitting that algorithm in the face
Algorithm.
You right.
If I have mesurements of 23 depth 34 inches height and 9 inches width how much wood would I need to complete it?
Depends on number of shelves. I used about 8 1x4 pine boards. Take your measurements and draw it out to see how many boards you need, then add 10-20% in the event of a mistake.
HELLO, I need to do a shorter version but to slide out if a cabinet, do you know what is the beat way to put the slider or what kind?
I don't have a video up of how to do drawer slides, but measure the length and buy the corresponding drawer slide for the length.
for that size of pantry cand you give all size's and materail to buy?
I'm sorry I don't have the specifics anymore, lost the piece of paper--thanks for the comment.
I thought about building one of these even though my fridge is on a corner rather than a nook but still thought the pantry on the corner side would be great for extra storage, however the heat produced by the fridge motor made me think twice about storing anything next to it for I'm afraid it might ruin my spices or dry food 🤷🏽♀️

If you have a cabinet above where the fridge is you could "vent" it by cutting a hole into the bottom of the cabinet. That could allow some air to escape upward.
Follow up questions! Is it top heavy at all? Would you still do wheels instead of slides? What would you tweak now?
Yes it is top heavy- you can’t pull it all the way out. I would still do wheels as I want to have that full extension without paying for the really big slides. Things I would tweak now: I would build it a little different with new skills I have acquired, I would have done the shelves based on what I need not on even spacing and I would make it a little wider.
It would be so much more enjoyable if you left the sound at the same level as your voice.
Thanks for the feedback.
To help your fridge last longer than 5 years, you need airflow around it of at least 1". Clean the back out regularly, especially if you have pets. Blocking it off might look nice and might help with storage issues but will cost you an expensive appliance in the long run I think.
Love the final product…hated the music, too loud and irritating.
