Recessed in the wall between studs! Easy installation. Simply screw it to the studs on each side once you insert it in the wall. Five fully adjustable acrylic shelves. Concealed hinges with soft close built in! Doors are left undrilled for a knob or handle so you can mount them to open either direction. Doors together measure 47h x 15.5w and the box is 3.5d and the doors cover the entire trim surround when the door is closed and only projects about 1 inch from the wall. The cabinet box is already painted white inside and unfinished bare maple doors can be painted or stained. Solid Maple Raised Panelstyle doors. Proudly made in sunny Sarasota Florida. Typically, you will have 14.5" between studs (16" on center) but this cabinet only requires an opening in your wall of 14 1/4w x 44 1/4h. Framing in the wall around the opening is not necessary. Thin plastic trim surround on the cabinet box covers your rough opening drywall edges so the only thing on the outside surface of your wall are the doors themselves!
