    Pantry Cabinet ?

    I need some help. I am building a pantry cabinet and have a question about the doors. The cabinet will be ~ 4 ft wide by 2ft deep by 7ft high. My question is, can I make 2 full length doors, 3/4 oak rail and stiles with oak ply panels, or do I need to make multiple doors to prevent twisting.

    Evening,
    I made a Pantry cabinet this past year, 8' tall, had the same thought. I ended up making two top doors 24" and two bottom doors approx. 4'...see if I can post some pics tomorrow...

        would something like a 4' and a 2' door work or would it be better to have two 3' doors per side.

          I made a pantry cabinet just like you described and made 2 doors. Just make sure the wood is flat to begin with. I also put a rail in the middle of the door so I had two panels on each door. Make sure you uses at least 3 hinges on each door. Mine turned out pretty good.
