How to Build a Simple Pantry Cabinet with Pull Out Shelves

Hey friends, let's build a simple basic pantry cabinet! This works as a stand alone storage cabinet OR can be integrated with existing cabinets.

The great thing about this basic build is that it's easy to customize. I built this one for my parent's garage and the ceilings were pretty tall. So I made this one a full 8'.

Standard pantry cabinet height is generally around 84" tall, though, so that's what I made the printable plans for. Plans include tips for modifications.

This cabinet will be installed in the next video. It should be secured to the wall studs as noted in the plans linked above to prevent tip over.

By the way...I promise what I hear in the video editor sounds nothing like what actually uploads to YouTube. I'm doing my best, but sometimes the background noises aren't audible in the editor and they are after I upload here. So bear with me.
