kitchen Floor Cupboards?

Mr_Proctalgia

Does anyone have any experience of fitting or making base units cantilevered, so they appear to be legless. I was wandering if a thin metal staycould be incorporated between units at 45 deg and bolted to the wall below the worktop. Or would using wall unit mounts and perhaps some 4 by 2 underneath at the bottom do it.

All ideas are needed.

TIA

If you are considering wall unit mounts and 4x2 timber underneath???
Then why not just go the traditional method of cupboards that are on legs, but have a plinth at the front that hides them away..

Mr_Proctalgia

I want to try to make the base units "float" so really don't want any legs or plinth if I can work out a way to do it. I have seen it done on some very expensive German units so it isn't beyond the wit of man. I am just fishing around for ideas at the moment.

It's quite easy to do. The problem is that the unit will have to be built or reinforced to accomodate this type of installation, whilst supporting plates and heavy pots etc.

i'd just use wall units but stick um 15-20cm off the floor!! :rotfl: :T :j
