Default cabinet build/design question

Kick plates can be an integral part of the base cabinet itself; they can be
a platform (usually 2 x 4's on edge) the cabinet (without built-in kick
plate) sits on; or alternately, you can use adjustable legs and just apply a
kick panel to the front.

Of those methods, I almost always build the kick plates into each individual
cabinet.

You do this by making the cabinet SIDES the exact height of your desired
base cabinet (36", less the countertop and underlay, so usually 34 1/2"),
then notch out for the kick plate panel in the front of each cabinet side.



Thanks for the clarification. Picture someone sitting here scratching
their head feeling fifty shades of stupid saying, 'aaahhhhhhhhhh'.



Thanks again,
Andrew.
