Highly Flexible Construction Options for Building Custom Cabinets

    Flexible Cabinet Base and Back Panel Options

    Design and Build Custom Cabinet Bases with Ease Using CabinetCRUNCHER

    CabinetCRUNCHER offers a wide range of options for installing cabinet bases, providing flexibility to suit various needs. Both Face Frame and Frameless cabinet styles support the following base configurations:


    No Base

    • The side panels extend the full height of the cabinet, serving as the support structure.
    • The cabinet rests directly on these side panels.
    • A kick plate can be added to the front at any specified height and depth.


    Attached Pedestal Base

    • A box-style pedestal base is attached to the cabinet’s bottom panel.
    • The height and depth of the pedestal’s kick space can be customized.
    • The front and side kick-space depths can be adjusted independently.


    Detached Pedestal Base

    • Also known as a "Ladder Base," this option allows for a separate box-style pedestal base to be custom fabricated and installed during cabinet setup.
    • Commonly used for multiple cabinets sharing a single base, such as a row of kitchen cabinets along one wall.


    Adjustable Legs

    • Adjustable legs or custom feet are mounted beneath the cabinet’s bottom panel.
    • This option provides additional flexibility for leveling and height adjustments.

    Easily build custom cabinet bases and toe kicks with CabinetCRUNCHER.

    Extended Side Panels (No Base)

    The cabinet rests on the side panels which extend below the bottom panel 4-5 inches to accommodate the height of a toe-kick in the front of the cabinet. This method is best for free-standing cabinets or bookcases. This method typically results in more plywood waste. For example, if you build a cabinet 36 inches tall, you would only be able to get two 36 inch side panels on each strip of standard sized plywood. But if you install the cabinet using a pedestal base or ladder base, then you could get three side panels on each ripped length of plywood because the side panels would normally be less than 32 inches high. A kick plate can be added at any specified height and depth.

    Ladder Base

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Please check the Frequently Asked Questions on each of the product pages. If you cannot find an answer to your question, please contact us at sales@cabinetcruncher.com, or phone 206-818-0109.

    Both versions include our industry-leading cabinet construction calculators and generate exacting cut lists and material requirements. The Professional version includes integrated project costing, labor tracking, and customer estimation tools, making it the ideal choice for businesses. The Artisan version includes all the same construction logic but excludes the financial estimation features. 


    Not at all. While CabinetCRUNCHER is powered by the Microsoft Excel engine, it operates as a dedicated Windows application (.exe) with an intuitive user interface. If you can enter dimensions into a box, you can generate a professional cut list. We’ve done the complex "math" in the background so you don't have to. 


    Absolutely. While our software is powerful enough for professional shops, it was designed to be accessible for anyone who wants to build high-quality cabinetry. In fact, DIYers often find the software even more valuable because it eliminates the "math anxiety" that comes with planning a project.

    By providing exacting cut lists and material requirements upfront, CabinetCRUNCHER helps you:

    • Avoid Costly Mistakes: You’ll know exactly how to cut every piece before you ever touch a saw.
    • Shop with Confidence: Our "Smart Material Lists" tell you exactly how many sheets of plywood and board feet of hardwood to buy, so you don't overspend at the lumber yard.
    • Build Like a Pro: Even if it’s your first project, you’ll be building with the same precision and construction standards used in professional cabinet shops.


    CabinetCRUNCHER is a Windows-based application that requires the Windows version of Microsoft Excel. However, many of our users successfully run the software on Mac computers using virtualization software such as Parallels Desktop, VMware Fusion, or Boot Camp. 


    CabinetCRUNCHER includes CabinetVIEW, a library of over 2,000 SketchUp models. While the software does not "auto-sync" live changes between the spreadsheet and the 3D model, they are designed to be complementary. You use CabinetVIEW to visualize the room layout and design with your client, then use CabinetCRUNCHER to "crunch" the exacting cutlists and material requirements needed for construction. 


    Yes. CabinetCRUNCHER supports both Fractional (inches) and Metric (mm) formats. You can choose your preferred measurement system when you set up your project standards. 


    Yes, CabinetCRUNCHER is an excellent choice for small professional cabinet shops. While large production facilities often invest in expensive, high-end CNC software (like Cabinet Vision), small professionals often find that those programs are "overpowered" and too costly for their needs.


    Here is why it specifically benefits a small professional business:


    1. High ROI (Return on Investment)

    Small shops need to keep overhead low. Unlike subscription-based software that costs thousands per year, CabinetCRUNCHER is a one-time investment. Many professionals report that the software pays for itself on the very first job simply by eliminating material waste and saving hours of manual "office work" prep.


    2. Professional-Grade Estimation

    The Professional Version is built specifically for business owners. It includes:

    • Cost Tracking: Accurate tracking of material costs (plywood, hardwood, hardware).
    • Labor & Overhead: The ability to factor in your shop rate and overhead costs.
    • Proposals: It helps you generate professional-looking estimates for your customers, ensuring you stay profitable.


    3. Adaptability to Your Shop Standards

    Most small pros have a "signature" way of building. Unlike rigid software that forces you to build a certain way, CabinetCRUNCHER allows you to set your own construction standards, and the software will "crunch" every cabinet to match your style.


    4. Scalability for "Batching"

    Even a small shop can handle a large multi-room kitchen if they are organized. You can input an entire project (20+ cabinets) and generate a consolidated cutlist. This allows you to "batch" your cutting—cutting all your gables at once, all your bottoms at once, etc.—which is a massive efficiency boost for a one or two-person shop.


    Pro-Tip for Small Businesses:

    If you are running a shop, we suggest the Professional Series. Having both the Face Frame and Frameless versions ensures you never have to turn down a client because of their preferred design style.


    Building a set of kitchen cabinets is a major project, but it is much more achievable than most people think. The "difficulty" of a kitchen isn't usually the woodworking—it’s the math and learning curve


    How CabinetCRUNCHER Makes it "Easy"


    Our software acts as your Master Engineer. It takes the most stressful part of the project—the planning and calculations—and automates it.


    1. Eliminates Math Errors: You don't have to worry about subtracting 1/4" for a dado or 1/2" for a drawer slide. The software does it for you instantly.
    2. Provides a "Roadmap": You get a precise Cutlist for every single cabinet. It’s like having a set of Legos with a custom instruction manual for your specific kitchen.
    3. Prevents Material Waste: By giving you a "Master Material List," we take the guesswork out of the lumber yard. You buy exactly what you need, saving you hundreds (or thousands) of dollars.


    The Bottom Line


    With a table saw, a pocket-hole jig, and CabinetCRUNCHER, building a professional-quality kitchen is well within the reach of a determined DIYer or a small shop owner. We provide the "brain" so you can focus on the "build."
