Reading A Layout Part 3

We understand from our previous blog post on Friday how to read the layout and what cabinets are in the kitchen. Sunday we learned how to read what fillers and panels are being supplied. Now I would like to go into why we are using fillers, when we can use that space to fit bigger kitchen cabinets.
On the top part of the drawing you will see it says 65 1/2" that is representing the width of the kitchen. Stock cabinets run in 3" increments. So if we have a 30" wide Cabinet, and a 33" wide cabinet in the kitchen, you are left with 2 1/2". A tip that we learned here with experience is, we at Regal Kitchens have yet to come across a straight wall in the NYC apartment buildings we deal with. That being said it is possible that on top this kitchen was 66", and lower down it was 65 1/2", there is no way you can chance putting in 66" worth of cabinets. The fillers on the other hand come in 3" increments as well, so that can be cut down to whatever width is needed.
On the bottom of the drawing you will see(where I circled) more fillers.

The first one WF3X30 is to cut down and to put flush with the bottom of the cabinets to close the gap on bottom between the wall and cabinet. Scribe molding is a thin 1" wide molding that basically you can put anywhere there are gaps. i will hopefully go into greater detail in the upcoming posts and come back and put a link to it here. Tomorrow I would like to go through the owner notes, and then just sum it all up.

Please don't hesitate to call with any questions,

Sincerely,
