Ridge_Runner Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 I have a client who wants std. 24" base deep cabinets on one side of a corner and 30" deep base cabinets on the opposite side. I have tried everything I know to simply make one side of the corner 30" and the front stay put (only the back of the cabinet move and the countertop covers correctly). I can change the cabinet side to the wall but the front moves with it - not what I want. I can do a workaround but I would like to keep the cabinet schedule correct and not have to add notes everywhere. I have attached the simple X7 plan showing what I am looking for. Thanks, Mike X7-corner cabinet.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskan_Son Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 No way of modelling that situation accurately in Chief that I know of. Its one of the few blatant limitations remaining with Chief's cabinet tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskan_Son Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Come to think of it, I run into this situation fairly often but I don't recall anyone having ever actually submitted a suggestion. May be a good time to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joey_martin Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 I'm not sure those cabinets exist...other than a totally custom box. Those situation are generally handled as a blind corner. There are some pretty handy inserts for blind corners that make them more accessible to get to the items in the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge_Runner Posted March 16, 2016 Author Share Posted March 16, 2016 Joey, that would be how I normally do it but this client is going totally custom. Thanks, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey_martin Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 May be able to modify a corner cabinet in SketchUp and bring it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkMc Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 You can use the work around (2 cabinets) and still get it into the schedule by blocking the cabinets. FWIW this modification has become increasingly available in semi-custom brands. ( I'm still more likely to use a blind with an insert but ...)
