About this detail

The base assembly features a typical two-by framing base with cripplers spaced at twenty-four inches on center, topped by a three-quarter-inch toe kick scribed directly to the floor. Plastic laminate covers the toe kick where no scheduled base is present, maintaining continuity across all ganged cabinets with typical edge banding. Gaps at the floor up to half an inch are shimmed beneath the two-by blocking, while larger gaps require cementitious leveling compounds applied by the general contractor and approved by the architect. The base and toe may be constructed either as an integral unit or as separate components at the manufacturer's option.
