We are going to have an 8 or 9" space between our dishwasher and 49" blind corner cabinet. It seems like a good space to store baking sheets and carving boards. We want to cut down a 12" base cabinet to fill the space, but we'd like to be able to use a door front, rather than just filler, since the space isn't that small. Our door style is Lidingo. Does anyone know the measurements of the 30" shallow pantry drawer front? Any thoughts on whether this could work? We need to have a couple of inches of filler next to the corner cabinet so the door & drawer can open, so we'd have about 6-7" to work with.

I realized (after reading ctaylors66's FAQ on this site and talking to IKEA) that these are the measurements for the shallow 30" drawer front:
29 7/8" wide
6 1/4" high
3/4" thick

The height would be perfect, but the width is 5/8" less than a regular door height. But since it's in a corner next to the dishwasher and we're not putting it next to any full-height doors, maybe we can get away with it.... ?
