If the cabinets are modular and easy to disassemble, it's not too hard
to cut them down to size. I did that for a freind. I unbolted the
cabinet from the others and the wall, disassembled it, cut down the sides
and reassembled it. The doors were no longer available in that style,
so I was unable to buy new ones of the right size. The rails and stiles
on the door were glued on and came off easily with a dead-blow hammer.
I cut them down, as well as the interior panel, and glued the whole thing
back together. I had to remount the lower hinges - the most difficult
part
of the exercise since they are European style hinges.

Most folks couldn't tell the cabinet wasn't made that way. I can, but
then most workmen can see the tiny flaws they regret making in a bit
of work.

Thanks, thats kind of what I was thinking, now I just have to learn how cut
straight.
