Worcestershire is a county of black-and-white timber framing, Georgian riverside houses and new-build market towns. 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
Every pantry we make starts with a site survey and a set of setting-out drawings, not a catalogue page. We measure the opening in Worcestershire, check the walls for wind and the floor for fall, then cut a carcass that fits the room you actually have.
How we build it
Moisture matters more than most people expect. Timber is conditioned before machining, and anything going into a kitchen, utility or bathroom is specified in materials that will not swell at the bottom edge. That is why the base of a well-made unit still closes cleanly after five winters.
Finish and materials
Finishing happens in the workshop wherever possible. Sprayed paint gives an even film that brushwork cannot match, and the only work left on site is the final touch-in around scribes and fixings.

Four steps, no surprises
Survey
A joiner visits, measures the opening, checks for level and plumb, and talks through how you want to use the space.
Drawings & quote
You get a setting-out drawing and a fixed written price. Nothing is ordered until you have approved both.
Workshop
Parts are machined, assembled and finished under cover while the site carries on with other trades.
Fit & handover
We fit, scribe, adjust and touch in, then walk you through care and adjustment before we leave.
Straight answers
Pantries & Larders in Worcestershire — common questions
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.
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.
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.
