Thermofoil Base Cabinets

Standard base cabinets are 34.5 inches tall, which creates a 36-inch countertop height when combined with a 1.5-inch countertop. This height is ergonomically designed for most adults and accommodates standard appliances like dishwashers and ranges.

Standard base cabinet depth is 24 inches, which works perfectly with 25-inch deep countertops, leaving a 1-inch overhang. This depth provides excellent storage capacity while allowing comfortable reach to items in the back of the cabinet.

Common base cabinet widths include 12", 15", 18", 21", 24", 30", 33", 36", and 48". The most popular sizes are 24", 30", and 36" widths. Sink bases typically start at 30" wide, while standard storage bases range from 12" to 36".

Quality base cabinets can typically support 100-150 pounds per linear foot when properly constructed and installed. This capacity easily handles heavy countertops, appliances, and stored items. Reinforcement may be needed for extremely heavy stone countertops.

Drawers provide better accessibility and organization than traditional shelves, especially for heavy items like pots and pans. Many homeowners prefer a combination: drawers for frequently used items and doors with pull-out shelves for larger storage needs.

Consider your kitchen style and maintenance preferences. Shaker doors offer timeless appeal and work in traditional or modern settings. Flat-panel doors suit contemporary designs, while raised-panel doors complement traditional aesthetics. Choose based on your overall design vision.

Popular accessories include pull-out drawers, lazy susans for corner cabinets, trash pull-outs, spice racks, and divider systems. These accessories maximize storage efficiency and improve accessibility to items stored in base cabinets.

Start with the corner cabinet, ensure level installation using shims, secure to wall studs, and connect adjacent cabinets with screws. Proper installation requires checking for level, plumb, and square throughout the process. Professional installation ensures optimal results and warranty coverage.
