Pie Cut Cabinet Lazy Susan Installation Help

Pie Cut Lazy Susans attach to doors in corner cabinets and spin around into the cabinet with the doors. These are called dependently rotating shelves. Pie cut lazy Susans add a classic look and feel to your kitchen.

Measuring:

As a general rule, you want to have about 1" - 2" clearance all the way around the shelf. You will want to measure the inside dimension of your cabinet where the shelf will install to see if you have this clearance. For this type of shelf, measuring the shelf will work, but so will measuring the cabinet. A 36" or 39" corner cabinet (measured at the back of the cabinet) would generally use the 31" shelf. A 33" corner cabinet would generally use the 28" shelf. The 24" would generally be used in corner wall cabinets; measure the cabinet or shelf space available to determine which will work for you. Lazy Susan shelves also have minimum and maximum inside cabinet height dimensions. Measure from inside bottom of the cabinet to the inside top of the cabinet. CabinetParts.com lists the height allowances for each on the series page.

IMPORTANT:

Pie Cut Lazy Susan shelves attach to the door and spin around with the shelf into the cabinet. Here is a helpful diagram to help with sizing of the cabinet and doors. Please be aware when cutting the door to size that there should be a 1/8" space between the door edge and the cabinet edge.


CabinetParts.com has the spec sheets for many of the styles that can be downloaded that will have all of the required allowances and measurements you would need to check before ordering. Once you have downloaded this sheet and perhaps even printed it out, you can take it to your cabinet and double-check all of your measurements against what is minimally required. Of course, CabinetParts.com associates are available to answer any questions you might have. Feel free to contact us for more assistance.
