If so then no I don't think it will look funny. I have an image when I was looking at kitchens and their blind pantry door was much wider than that and looked good. will see if I can find it and post it.. Yes the pantry door and the blind panel (over the countertop) next to it will all be the same as the other kitchen cabinets - which will be acrylic - colour undecided ( see my other post) Re: width of pantry door..... 6Jan 13, 2013 6:34 pm Kind of like this?? This looks much wider than 780mm or at least not far off... door closed door open Blog: http://cbcbuild.blogspot.com.au/ Building Thread: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=62155 Re: width of pantry door..... 7Jan 13, 2013 6:38 pm [quote="Lilac"]Kind of like this?? This looks much wider than 780mm or at least not far off... door closed Thanks for that - although it is not a blind pantry - it does give me some idea, and the door is quite wide...thanks Re: width of pantry door..... 8Jan 13, 2013 7:06 pm It is a typical design method to terminate the end of a kitchen with the pantry. I think the position will be just fine. Any bigger and it will start to dominate the space. Mario Re: width of pantry door..... 9Jan 13, 2013 8:42 pm I would never put a hinged door in a kitchen wider then 650mm. If I did I wouldnt warrent the hinges or the door as they wouldnt last long. The door will sag in no time and the hinges would eventually fail. Hinges used by cabinet makers are great but dont like the weight of wide doors. I personally would have two doors but bifold them towards the bench top.

If i am having a blind pantry and therefore want access to the area behind the work\top into the corner...would it not be better to hinge the other way?

They would sit flat against the bench top allowing complete access to the entire cupboard including the blind corner part of it. If you hinged them on the other side it would be strange.

Re: width of pantry door..... 13Jan 15, 2013 8:39 pm Evelin [\ out of curiosity, why wouldn't you have the door hinged on the left side of the cabinet? Why would you though?? If you put a door on the left hand side then your impeading you access into the pantry. If the door were open you would have to walk around it to get to the pantry.
