Trilogy pantry

We just purchased a 3850 d3 . We don't like the pantry. Too much wasted space. We want to remove everything and build some drawers and install them. Has anyone done this and could you post pictures.

In our last camper we installed stackable wire bins and secured them to the back wall. Lowes has wire drawers on slides that looks good if the size is right.

We have the 3850 as well and I hate the pantry. I loved the idea of one, but the way it's set up leaves a lot to be desired. I hope someone will post pictures with a solution and if I find one I'll let you know.

don't know if this will help but here goes.
Didn't like the metal racks in my Cardinal

Took them out and built this pull out wooden shelf system.






Shelves are darn near twice as wide and fully adjustable on pegs.
what used to be the door was screwed on to shelf assembly.

Problem with our pantry is that the door does not open 90 degrees. You can only open it about 80 because of the slide. This certainly limits what you can do with the area. It is very deep and DW wants me to come up with some workable solution.

Those look really nice. When I get a chance I will build 2 freestanding drawer units. I will fasten them to the inside but the current structure won't be supporting the weight. The doors open enough so we won't have to remove the shelves from the doors. I will post pictures when I do it but it may be a couple mos. Have a daughters wedding and an HDT to modify
