Can drawers are a popular addition to pantries, and but can be used in any space. They are essentially just regular drawers that are open on top (versus having a shelf on top, which is a default standard in most locations) to allow for taller items inside. To create a can drawer, you want your component and parts to eventually look something like the image to the right.
First, add your drawer(s). In this case, we added three large drawers and a medium drawer. A gap/space is left above the drawer to allow for the height of cans or other items. A 3” is a typical height for this spacer, but this can vary depending on your client’s needs. I repeated this step with each new drawer.to be stored inside.
Start by adding drawers, leaving a gap in between each one. A 3” space is pretty typical, but the spacing will vary depending on the client’s needs and the use of the drawer(s).

The next step is to remove the default fixed shelf between the drawer and the spacer above it. Open the part properties for the drawer and select ‘Off’ for ‘ in the Shelf Above’ field (under the ‘ Misc ’ heading) to ignore/remove the shelf above.

Note that manually selecting and deleting a shelf may result in it popping back in when you make additional changes to the parts or that component. |
Hit ‘Use the 'Apply properties to.. Select’ to select click on any other drawers that also need a shelf removed. This will eliminate the need from removing them all one by one. Once complete, your drawer should look like the picture on the right.
Note: If you just delete the shelves above the drawers, they may appear back on as you make changes to your comp. Using the above method will ensure they stay turned off.

DO THESE BELONG HERE?
Faceless or scooped drawer fronts are also a popular choice for pantries. You will find the option for ‘Faceless’ fronts in the Front > Type options in the drawer part properties.

If you would like a faceless and scooped front, simply check the box next to ‘Scoop’. In the images to the left, you can see the difference between faceless scooped (top two), and just faceless (bottom two), in both the 3D and elevation views.
