Compact Sculleries: Adding High-Volume Pantries to NZ Kitchens

Open-plan living is the standard in New Zealand. However, having your dirty dishes and small appliances visible to dinner guests is highly stressful. A compact scullery or walk-in pantry is the ultimate solution.

Here are our professional installer layout tips for secondary kitchen workspaces.

1. Tall Cabinet Towers We utilize tall pantry cabinet modules with internal pullout steel drawer baskets, giving you massive storage capacity that remains hidden behind flush doors.

2. Moisture-Resistant Overheads Since small sculleries house kettles and coffee makers, steam builds up quickly. We apply polyurethane sealants and moisture-resistant white modular boards to protect cabinetry overheads from swelling.

3. Integrated Fridge Housing We create flush alcoves for secondary beverage fridges and align cabinet filler panels, keeping your modern kitchen sleek and clutter-free.
