The Pullout Pantry

Pam and Brissy the Cat and I are four and a half months into fulltiming in Island Girl now.  I hadn’t really planned on the trailer being able to operate in the cold, but we’ve been doing ok.  Everything works the way I wanted  and I haven’t found anything that needs to be changed.

Work is mostly done with the last fairly big project being the pullout pantry in the old broom closet.

I used a heavy bottom slider and a guide for the top from Rockler.  The sides are just simple one inch aluminum  stock from the hardware store.

The top guide mounts to a simple shelf over the top of the pantry unit.

The original door got reused.

I now have lots and lots of storage and the broom found a home in the wardrobe closet.
