How to stack Kaboodle base cabinets?

[aussieorchid]

In order to get the desired height I want floor to ceiling for my office storage I was thinking of stacking kaboodle base cabinets on top of each other three high. I need a corner unit and all the other tall corner units are pantry style and the shelf shapes are not great for office storage.

Has anyone done this before and were there any issues. I will be attaching the cabinets to the wall as well as each other so no risk of falling. I plan to then add trim to give it a built in look.

Hello @aussieorchid 

Just to give you a visual reference to Mitchell's recommendation, it is possible to stack three corner cabinets one on top of another. However, please be aware that you'll need to build a custom timber base plinth for the structure so that it does not go over 2200mm which is the full height of a pantry end panel. If you do decide to use the standard feet that comes with the cabinetry, you'll need to build a custom pantry panel and paint it.  

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.

Thanks for the tip I am going to use the timber skirting on a plinth as the base so it matches the surrounding walls. What is the lowest height the standard feet can go out of interest.

Hello @aussieorchid 

Conservatively, the lowest it can go is 100mm, but you will need to go lower if you are using the Kaboodle pantry panel. I propose using 40mm timber to build your plinth as this is close to the size you'll be needing to meet the necessary height measurements. I almost forgot, please keep in mind that the corner cabinet tops are open at the top. You'll need to create a cover panel for the last cabinet at the very top. I've placed an image of the Kaboodle cabinet below to give you a better idea of its structure.
