Help! I have a lower kitchen cabinet w/an inset shelf that I want 2 remove. Is the shelf a support 2 the unit?
December 23rd, 2009 | by admin |harleyhon444 asked:
This is a below-counter cabinet. The single shelf is non-adjustable as it has been recessed into grooves on either side of the inside cabinet walls. I was going to cut it out in order to remove it but someone suggested it might be a support to the overall cabinet itself. Does anyone know anything about this? Will my cabinet fall apart if I cut out the shelf?

cut it out without cutting counter top support .cover area cut out with thin plywood or paneling. stay away from particle board if it gets wet it’s ruined. You will loose a little space but it will work

No, it’s a support only to the things that you put on it.
There’s no way that you could cause any problem by removing it.

If I wanted to remove it, I’d remove it. It’s a cabinet, not a wall. The cabinet essentially is a box that is framed and nailed together and covered on five sides. If it proves out that the shelf is a stabilizer, put the darn thing back in. I wonder how the shelf if held into the grooves. Guess it could be glued. It would be nice if you could somehow just pull the shelf out of the grooves.
