[QUOTE="OK Corgi Rancher, post: 3764542, member: 45773"] Long story warning... [ATTACH type="full" alt="20220413_182350.jpg"]266681[/ATTACH] So, I measured the wall to the right of that brown door. I measured wrong. We bought a 39" base and wall cabinet to go into the space to the right of the door/left of the black fridge on the right edge of the picture. Because I screwed up the measurement, the 39" cabinets won't fit. They go right to the edge of the door frame but the fridge panel between the cabinets won't fit. Well, luckily, that door frame was oversized for the door I bought. Too small for the next largest door, though. Turns out, I could take the door off, take the old 1/2" thick trim piece off the right side of the door opening (I just left it in place when I installed the door), nail up a 2x4 on the left side of the opening and re-install the door. That'll give me an extra nearly 3" of space to make the 39" cabinets fit with room to spare and I don't have to do anything else. I was thinking it was actually a fatal blunder...turns out I got lucky. I'd rather be lucky than good anyway... :) [/QUOTE]
