BASE AND BASE BLIND CORNER CABINETS 43" - 62" BB45 L/R (base blind corner) cabinets may be pulled out from the corner if required and the room is available. BB45 L/R When installing a base cabinet at a right angle to a BB45 L/R cabinet you must use a filler to provide clearance for door and drawer handles. The filler width required is usually 1 3/4" - 3" depending on the type of pull used on the cabinets. Recommended void space is 6" Cut the 3" filler to required width.
DISHWASHER GABLES Measure 27 1/8" over from the cabinet at the front and the back and draw a line on the floor. This will leave you 24 1/8" between the cabinet side and the start of the filler on the face of the dishwasher panel. Draw a plumb line on the wall from the floor to the base cabinet line. These lines mark the position of the inside of the dishwasher gable. Install a ledger board 27 1/8" long below the base cabinet guideline.
