Storage problems we solve in Naperville kitchens

Most kitchens don't run out of space; they run out of space you can reach. In Naperville we fit roll-out shelves into existing cabinets, turn closets and empty walls into pantries and build banquettes with storage under the seat, so the counters can stay clear.

Wasted space above and between cabinets

The gap above upper cabinets, an unused soffit or a dead wall at the end of a run can become storage. Taller or added cabinets use it.

Trash can taking up floor space

A bin standing next to the counter is in everyone's way. A pull-out trash and recycling unit fits inside a base cabinet, often near the sink.

Pull-Out Shelves & Cabinet Organizers →

Wire shelving sagging under food

When the pantry shelves bow and things slip through the wires, it's time for solid shelving anchored into studs.

Pantry Design & Installation →

Small appliances with nowhere to go

Stand mixers, air fryers and slow cookers crowd the counter. A pantry cabinet with a pull-out shelf or an appliance cabinet gives them a place.

No place for the family to sit

A wobbly table in a corner rarely gets used. A built-in banquette fits more people in the same space and adds storage under the seat.

Built-In Breakfast Nook & Banquette →

Food lost on deep pantry shelves

Shelves that are too deep for boxes and cans turn the pantry into a guessing game. We rebuild them at depths that fit what you store.

Kitchen Storage & Pantry Solutions questions from Naperville homeowners

Do storage upgrades need a permit?
Not for work inside cabinets. Only structural changes or new wiring bring permits into it.
Do you match the existing cabinet finish?
For built-ins that show, we match color and door style where possible, or suggest a contrasting finish that looks intentional.
Can you add storage without replacing the cabinets?
In most kitchens, yes. Organizers are built to fit the openings you have, so the cabinets and counters stay.
How long does a storage project take?
Most of the time goes into measuring and building the parts. Installation itself is usually short.
Can you add more storage to an older kitchen?
Usually. We check the cabinet frames and find spaces like back halls or old closets that can hold pantry storage.
Naperville building permit for storage project: where do I apply?
Permits go through Transportation, Engineering and Development (TED) Business Group, Building Permits, phone (630) 420-6100, Option 2. When your scope needs one, we prepare the application and schedule the inspections.
