In the near future I need to build a pantry and linen closet.  Pantry will be 24" deep x 7' tall and 36" w, next to it will be the linens 24" d x 7' t x 2' w.  pantry will have a door of some sort but the linen wont.
Any help on this would be grand.

I think I would probably put the upper shelves on slides.  At that heigth it is going to be very hard to get to the items in the back.  To go one better you might consider a pivot shelf system. to where the complete interior shelves pivot out to get to in the back.  Maybe something along these lines.

What sort of help do you need?

If it is just general advice you need: consider specifically what you will be storing in the pantry & linen cabinets and design the components to best suit those items.  Size matters  ;)

I build dozens of custom cabinets, vanities, drawers, closet organizers, entertainment centers... every year for clients that need something they can't buy stock.  The key to a successful project is understanding exactly what it is the client needs.  There are a mind boggling number of options available.  The more specific you are, the more likely you'll get what you need/want.
