Door/drawer configuration for 80" tall pantry

Hi all:

I am getting a 30" wide 80" tall pantry for my kitchen. I would love to have the two deep drawers in the base, like the 88" units have, but I cannot seem to get the math to work out correctly. If I take:

80" tall pantry - 25" drawer fronts (12.5" drawer fronts x 2) - 39" door fronts = 16".

There are no 16" door fronts. Have I done my math incorrectly? Should I try configuring this differently? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Re: Door/drawer configuration for 80" tall pantry

I've been trying this and haven't come up with something yet but here are the closer-to-actual measurements according to the catalog:

80" pantry = 79.5"H
39" door = 39.125"H
30" door = 30.375"H
24" door = 24.000"H
18" door = 17.750"H
15" door = 15.250"H
Bottom deep drawer = 12.500"H
Upper deep drawer = 11.250"H
Shallow drawer = 6.250"H

The closest I've come is 1 1/8" over or 1 3/8" under.

PS. The drawer measurements aren't in the catalog, they are from this site.

Re: Door/drawer configuration for 80" tall pantry

These doors/drawers are ordered from the top of the cabinet down as I imagine them. Maybe use a little trim at the top to make up the difference?

17.75 + 39.125 + 11.25 + 12.5 = 80.625 - 79.5 = 1.125 over
15.25 + 39.125 + 11.25 + 12.5 = 78.125 - 79.5 = (1.375) under
24 + 30.375 + 11.25 + 12.5 = 78.125 - 79.5 = (1.375) under
17.75 + 30.375 + 6.25 + 11.25 + 12.5 = 78.125 - 79.5 = (1.375) under

Re: Door/drawer configuration for 80" tall pantry

If you don't mind some waste (because the drawfronts only come in sets, and you'd have to buy 2 sets and discard the 12.5 drawerfronts): 2 of the 11.25 drawerfronts + 18" doors + 39" doors = 79.5" (aka the true height of the pantry).
