Gwynedd is a county of slate-roofed stone cottages in quarrying villages and coastal holiday properties. That is exactly the kind of building stock a pantry has to be drawn around, so we allow for it at survey stage rather than on fitting day — walls get checked for wind and plumb, floors for level, and the setting-out is taken from the worst reading, not the best.
How we approach it
The difference between a fitted job and a fitted-looking job is the setting out. For pantries & larders in Gwynedd we rod the job first, so what arrives on site already accounts for the bows, the skirting and the ceiling line.
How we build it
Hardware is specified to the weight it is carrying, not to a price point. Soft-close runners are rated for the drawer load, hinges are adjustable in three planes, and sliding gear is sized so a full-height door still moves with one finger a decade later.
Finish and materials
Every finished job gets a short handover: what the surface is, how to clean it, and how to adjust a hinge if a door drops after the heating has been on for a season. Adjustment is normal in timber and takes about two minutes once you know which screw to turn.

Straight answers
Pantries & Larders in Gwynedd — common questions
Can a larder be cool without refrigeration?
Only with an external air vent and a north-facing wall, which is rare in a modern house. Most larders today are ambient storage — plan for a fridge for anything perishable.
Can you build a larder into an existing kitchen?
Usually yes, by replacing two base units and the wall units above with a single full-height run. The main constraints are the ceiling height and whether there is a soffit or a pipe boxing in the way.
How wide does a larder need to be?
600mm gets you shelves and a small worktop. 900mm to 1,200mm is where it becomes genuinely useful — you can put the toaster and the kettle inside and shut the door on them. Double doors that fold flat against the sides are worth the extra.
Should the larder have a power socket?
Yes, at the back of the internal worktop. A larder with a socket becomes a breakfast station and permanently removes the small appliances from your worktops.
What guarantee do you give?
Ten years on workmanship. Hardware carries the manufacturer's warranty, which on good runners and hinges is usually lifetime. Finishes are guaranteed for five years against flaking or delamination in normal domestic use.
