Angled corner upper cabinets
Comments (6)We have a 24" angled corner with D-shaped super susans on 2 of the shelves (no pole in the center). This works great. I have all the baking stuff in there and can easily get at things. There's another thread about corner cabinets that has a picture of our cabinet and a few others you could check out. I don't know if I would go smaller unless you can find a D-shaped super/lazy susan to fit in the cabinet - but they may make one that is smaller. I wouldn't do a blind corner. I think you give up too much potential space vs the diagonal with rotating shelves. Good luck!...See MoreUpper corner cabinet - what type
Comments (20)willtv - how big are the doors on easy reach? I looked at company with easy reach but the cabinet was 24 inch with each door 12 inches so it still left me only 10 inches to the window for another skinny cabinet :(. I was looking at Jim Bishop which is semi-custom and asked about having custom made easy reach cabinet but KD told me that if door on one side was like 20" and 12" on the other than eventually the door would sag on the hinges. Symmetry is important to my husband so the skinny cabinet on one side of the window and large on the other might bother him. I hate to loose the space in the blind corner but the kitchen will be more usable anyway so it might be OK. I have a meeting with a KD today that is going to show me a plan and pricing using Kemper and Decora (she was really pushing Decora for some reason), not sure if either has easy reach (I kind of doubt it)....See MoreUpper corner cabinet at right angles???
Comments (2)The corner cab with the 45 degree angle holds more but is a pain in the butt if things fall off the lazy susan, or worse, if you don't have one. I think the easy reach (no turntable) or pie shape lazy susan may be better because the opening would allow you to reach in the back corners better. I have never had a pie shaped lazy susan in any kitchen I have cooked in, so I could be wrong. I did have 2 45 degree ones and hated them for the most part....See MorePictures of your Upper Corner Cabinet Please!!!
Comments (3)I vote no mullions (actually muntins). It can get busy with the horizontal lines of the mullions conflicting with the horizontal lines of the shelves. Sometimes you can line these up but due to hinge locations, sometimes you can't. Secondly, I think if you have glass doors you intend the contents to be fully seen. The cleaner look that you get with the frame only (no mullions) is more updated and in keeping with the more pared down streamlined kitchen styling of today. 3/8" thick glass should be sturdy enough for your plates. They would be nice if you are going to light the inside of the cabinet as they will allow the light to shine through. If not just use finished wood shelves. The interior of the cabinet should also be finished to match the outside. Here is a link that might be useful: Kitchens for Living...See MoreSnbtwins
