I'm designing some cabinets for a cargo trailer. I want a clean, crisp look for the cabinets and have decided to go with frameless. I've made lots of face frame style but never frameless.
The entire run of cabinets will be 148" long with 4 separate sections for lots of drawers holding heavy items. My questions concerns the basic carcass sonstruction. Should I build 4 separate boxes, 37" wide (with 1/4" backs) and screw them together or, make 2 longer boxes, 74" long and put a 3/4" vertical divider in the center? The cabinets will be 39" tall with a 6" toe-kick area.
I'm thinking separate cabs will give more rigidity (also more weight).
Thoughts???
