Base cabinets or ‘bases’ sit on the floor. That’s simple enough but from there it gets complicated. Most bases have a ‘kick’ which is a space for your toes to fit into when you stand at the base cabinet to work, cook or vent your aggression on that pizza dough. There are at least two different types of basic base cabinet depending on how this kick is formed. One type has a separate kick or sometimes adjustable legs holding the box off the floor. The other type has the box sides going all the way to the floor and notched at the front to form the kick.
