Question how to convert 24 inch base cabinet and a 21 inch cabine into a corner base cab?

Help. We are in middle of installation, baby on way. Installing Adel MB. In our original layout we had a 49 inch base corner cab (BLIND cab). It was too big. We are now trying to convert 24 inch base and 21 inch base into a corner cab with or without lazy susan ( whichever is better). Any suggestions?

Hey hey!

Can you clarify: do you mean a blind corner? Or just a corner?

Welcome! I would cut down the 49" cab. There might even still be room for the lazy susan--I can't remember the details but I know it doesn't fill the entire space. If not, you could use the Lee Valley blind corner pullout. The Lee Valley can use doors from 15" wide up--most recommend the 18" doors. Since you're allowed to buy whatever combination of doors and cabs and other stuff you want, just buy what would fit your space best. Good luck!

I believe you only need something like 38 inches of space for the lazy susan. it wastes a lot of space.
