Wall Cabinet
W
all Cabinet
I built this cabinet for my kitchen to provide both storage and visual interest on a very
blank wall. I saved space—and materials—by allowing the wall to serve as the cabinet’s back.
The project is built in sections and then attached to the wall. The center shelves can be altered
in length to fit just about any space you wish. If you have a smaller wall (perhaps in a
bathroom), build only one of the end cabinets.
Materials and Supplies
24 linear feet of 1 x 3 pine
63 linear feet of 1 x 4 pine
50 linear feet of 1 x 6 pine
4 shutter doors, each measuring 15-1/4” x 23”
Hardware
Approximately 150 #6 x 1-1/4” screws
Approximately 50 3d finishing nails
4 door latches
4 decorative door pulls
8 flush-mounted hinges
18 molly bolts (or other appropriate hardware to attach the project to the wall)

Notes on Materials
To save time and to avoid having to build cabinet doors, I purchased pre-made shutter doors,
which are available at most building-supply stores. If you can’t find shutters in the specified
size, it’s usually possible to cut them down to fit. If all else fails, simply alter the dimensions of
the cabinet to accommodate the shutters you find.
Making the Cabinet Frame
1. Cut four 37-1/2”-long top/bottom pieces (A) from 1 x 6 pine.
2. Cut four 28-1/2”-long side pieces (B) from 1 x 6 pine.
3. Place two of the top/bottom pieces (A) on a level surface, on edge, parallel to each other,
and 28-1/2” apart. Fit two of the side pieces (B) between the ends of the top/bottom pieces
(A), as shown in
Figure 1
. Glue the pieces together and insert three 1-1/4” screws through
the top/bottom pieces (A) into the ends of the sides (B) at each joint.
Figure 1
4. Cut four 36”-long shelves (C) from 1 x 6 pine.
Figure 2
5. A slot must be cut into each of the four shelves (C) at the center front to accommodate the
center vertical support (E). Using
Figure 2
as a guide, cut a slot 3-1/2” wide and ¾” deep
in the center front of each shelf (C).
6. Use 1-1/4” screws and glue to attach two of the shelves (C) inside the assembly, spacing
shelves as desired.
Figure 1
shows the spacing that I chose for mine.
7. Repeat Steps 3 through 6 to construct a second cabinet frame using the remaining two
top/bottom pieces (A), two sides (B), and two shelves (C).
Adding the Trim
1. Cut four vertical trim pieces (D) from 1 x 4 pine, each measuring 30” long.
2. Glue one vertical trim piece (D) to the left side of the cabinet, as shown in
Figure 3
, and
secure it with 1-1/4” screws inserted through the vertical trim piece (D) and into the edge of
the side (B). Space the screws about 6” apart.
Figure 3
3. Repeat Step 2 to attach a second vertical trim piece (D) to the right side of the cabinet, as
shown in
Figure 3
.
4. Cut two 28-1/2”-long center vertical supports (E) from 1 x 4 pine.
5. Fit one center vertical support (E) into the slots in the center front of the shelves (C), as
shown in
Figure 3
. Glue the support in place and insert two 1-1/4” screws through the
top/bottom (A) and into the end of the center vertical support (E) at each joint. Then drive
two 3d finishing nails through the center vertical support (E) and into the slot in the center
front of each shelf (C). Note that the spacing between the vertical pieces (D and E) should
be exactly 13-1/2”.
6. Cut four 30-1/2”-long horizontal trim pieces (F) from 1 x 4 pine.
7. Glue two of the horizontal trim pieces (F) flush with the top and bottom of the cabinet,
between the vertical trim pieces (D), as shown in
Figure 3
. Then insert three 1-1/4” screws
along each horizontal trim piece (F) to secure it to the edge of the top/bottom piece (A).
Note that the opening between the top and bottom horizontal trim pieces (F) should be
exactly 23”.
8. Repeat Steps 1 through 7 to attach two vertical trim pieces (D), one center vertical support
(E) and two horizontal trim pieces (F) to the remaining cabinet frame.
Constructing the Cabinet Base
1. To stabilize the cabinet and lift it off the floor, we built very simple base units and attached
them to the bottoms of the two assembled cabinets. Cut two long bases (G) from 1 x 4
pine, each measuring 30” long.
2. Cut two short bases (H) from 1 x 4 pine, each measuring 3-1/2” long
3. Cut one 31-1/2” long base top (I) from 1 x 4 pine.
4. Place the two long bases (G) on a level surface, parallel to each other, on edge and 2” apart.
Glue the two short bases to the ends of the two long bases (G) as shown in
Figure 4
, and
insert two 1-1/4” screws through the short bases (H) and into the ends of the long bases (G)
at each joint. You should end up with a rectangular base frame measuring 31-1/2” x 3-1/2”.
5. Glue the base top (I) to the top edges of the base frame, as shown in
Figure 4
. Then drive
3d finishing nails through the base (I) and into the edges of the base frame, spacing the nails
about 4” apart.
Figure 4
6. Turn the cabinet upside down and place the completed base on its bottom, with the base top
(I) against the cabinet bottom. Position the base so that the cabinet overlaps it by 2-3/4” in
the front and by 3” on each side. Note that the rear of the base should be flush with the
back edge of the cabinet bottom.
7. Repeat Steps 1 through 6 to build and attach a second cabinet base to the remaining cabinet.
Constructing the Center Shelves
1. The center shelves are constructed separately and then attached to the wall between the
assembled cabinets. Each shelf unit is constructed in an identical manner. Our completed
shelf units measure 58” long, but you can adjust them to exact length that you require
between your two cabinets. Cut three 58”-long center shelves (J) from 1 x 6 pine.
