Coated wire shelving that lets air move and light pass through, a practical, budget-friendly choice for many closet pantries.
Wire shelving is the practical choice for many pantries. It is strong for its weight, it lets air circulate around food and it allows light to pass through to lower shelves. It is also one of the more affordable systems, which makes it a smart option for a first pantry or a secondary storage space. In Nashville, where homes often have deep closets and humid summers, ventilated shelving helps keep dry goods fresh.
Modern coated wire is far better than the thin racks of the past. Heavy-gauge wire resists bending, and white or nickel finishes look clean and wipe easily. We plan the layout so shelves are properly supported, with a wall bracket at every stud and end supports on long spans. For small items that could tip or slip through, we add shelf liners, rails or bins, so you get the benefits of wire without its drawbacks. If you are unsure whether wire is right for you, we bring a few sample shelves to the visit so you can see and touch the options before deciding.
Open wire reduces trapped moisture and lets light reach the lower shelves, which helps in deeper closets.
Heavy-gauge wire with proper brackets holds a lot of weight at a modest cost.
Liners, rails and bins keep jars, boxes and small packets stable on the wire.
Coated wire resists moisture and wipes clean in seconds, which makes upkeep simple.
