Special Cabinetry Conditions

Depending on which type of cabinetry you specify above you may have a base cabinet set up for a sink (no handles on drawers where a sink would go), upper cabinets with a range hood below, or upper cabinets with a microwave with hood below.

Cabinet Width Configuration

This is where you specify the number of drawers/doors wide the cabinet will be. You may specify a single drawer/door or double drawer/door. The 3/2 drawers/doors option is typically used in bathroom vanity conditions where you would like three drawers across (a small operable drawer on each side of a larger non-operable drawer for in front of a sink) above two doors.

Cabinet Height Configuration

This only applies to base drawer cabinets and allows you to specify how many drawers you would like vertically stacked in the cabinet.

Cabinet Image

This is meant to be a graphical approximation of the cabinet that you are drawing. It is NOT meant to be an exact image of what the cabinet will look like when drawn. It is merely a representation to help you see the overall configuration selected.

Cabinet Height

Enter the height for the cabinet. The height is measured from the floor line to the top of the countertop surface. To enter the height you may either select one of the preset height buttons or enter a value in the box.

Back to top

Cabinet Width

Enter the width for the cabinet. To enter the width you may either select one of the preset width buttons or enter a value in the box. This image indicates what the preset buttons will look like with a double door/drawer cabinet. With a single door/drawer cabinet the 9", 12" and 15" buttons would be selectable and the 33" and wider buttons would not.

Note: Any positive width value can be entered above. The preset buttons merely show commonly used sizes.
