do you mean they just butted the 2 cabs up to the edges of the end panels of each other and left the whole corner space empty? you can see the ceiling from below your upper cabs (if you put your head on the counter in the corner facing upward)?

I wouldn't like that... I'd be boarding it up. my corner cabs have 1 where the shelves run clear thru to the 'end panel' that IS screwed into the wall. The cabinet butting up to it has a side panel just like other cabinets do.

I can't use that space in there for much cause I can't reach back in there. I do put a few things just to the inside of that space. I could reach more if I wanted to use a step stool all the time - but I don't. It's a good place to hide a gift from a snoopy spouse or kid.

yep, exactly! i don't know if that's the way its done or they just didn't finish it properly. Thank you for your response : )

They probably just left it that way thinking no one would see it anyway. How often do your visitors lay their head in the corner of your counter and look check out the bottom of your cabinets:)

That is either the reason, or they forgot to I nclose it or your KD didn't think about it and didn't include the wood for it with the cabinet order. It should be inclosed.

Thank you, I thought so. I am going to have them finish it : )

The reason was to cut a few hundred dollars from their cost. It is not standard practice. Did they add fillers in the corners to prevent the doors from banging into each other?

good question!

yes, they saved a few bucks by doing it that way. the cabs made for the corner (to have another cab butted up to it) would cost a bit more - more material used to make a full box for the corner. Tacky way to do it tho.

Yes, they did add fillers. I was not happy when i discovered it. Looks unfinished and very unprofessional.

A void corner is a valid design option In some cases. ''Filling it in'' isn't the usual at all. That would be an extra, with a charge associated.

I've had a number of corner cabs before but never one without a bottom.

Post a picture. If it's a blind corner, or void corner, then that space isn't ''cabinet space'' but the spacebetween the cabinets. That would not normally be skinned from the bottom or top. It's normal to be left open.

Sounds like a good place to hide the family valuables. Or chocolate. : )

Hope the situation resolves peaceably.

My installer said he has that situation at home and uses it to hide jewelry. There is a false bottom, side ledges inside, and the top is permanently closed. He installed that situation for my wall cabinets in a corner of the family room. I'll probably do the same.
