For Small Kitchens |
Small
Kitchens - under 150 sq. ft. - allow at least
144" of wall cabinet frontage, with cabinets at
least 12" deep, and a minimum of 30" high (or equivalent)
which feature adjustable shelving. Difficult to
reach cabinets above the hood, oven or refrigerator
do not count unless devices are installed within
the case to improve accessibility. (Fig. 1) |
|
| Comment:
Subtract the 12" blind portion off of blind corner
wall cabinets. Notice the WB4230 blind corner cabinet
is only counted as 30". |

| Tall
cabinets 72" or taller can count as either
base or wall cabinets, but not both. (Fig
5) The calculation is as follows: |
- 12"
deep tall units = 1 x the base lineal
footage, 2 x the wall lineal footage.
- 18"
deep tall units = 1.5 x the base lineal
footage, 3 x the wall lineal footage.
- 21"
to 24" deep tall units = 2 x the base
lineal footage, 4 x the wall lineal footage.
