Cabinetry refers to furniture that can be used for many purposes and designs. It is helpful to be familiar with the various types of cabinetry that are available when designing a kitchen, bathroom, living area, or bedroom. Knowing the main types of cabinetry will help you make an informed choice about which one is best for you. There are many types of cabinetry available, but they all have variations of these three main types.
Base Cabinetry
Base cabinetry is attached to the floor. It usually measures approximately 36 inches high and has a four-inch rise, called a “toe-kick”, underneath the door. This cabinetry would be installed under your bathroom vanity or kitchen counters.
Wall Cabinetry
Wall cabinetry refers to cupboards that are placed closer or further from the eye. It is usually 12 inches in depth and the same height and width as base cabinetry, except for special, custom-designed designs.
Tall Cabinetry
Tall cabinetry is basically a base cabinet with an added height for broom storage and pantry space. Tall cabinetry measures on average 84 inches high.
These three types are just a few of the many options available. Specialty units can be customized to meet your specific needs. Kitchen design often requires specialty units such as corner cabinets, suspended units, and bottle racks.
