What standard base, wall and tall cabinet sizes are, how heights and depths work and why custom sizing helps.
Most factory cabinets follow common sizes. Base cabinets are usually about thirty-four and a half inches high without the counter and twenty-four inches deep. Wall cabinets are commonly twelve inches deep and come in several heights. Tall cabinets, such as pantries, reach to the ceiling or near it. Widths often step in three-inch increments. These standards make it easy to mix and match, but they leave gaps in rooms that are not an exact fit.
Fillers and panels cover the gaps, and sometimes the result looks fine and sometimes it does not. Custom cabinets can be built to any width, height and depth, which helps in older Nashville homes with uneven walls and unusual windows. We explain the standard sizes so you can read any plan, and we show where custom sizing would improve your room.
