Construction controls belong to the cabinet body, except for a compartment’s individual panel openings. Select the whole cabinet for Mounting, Legs, Back panel, and Corners.

Floor or wall mounting

  • Floor rests the lower cabinet on the selected base, legs, or castors.
  • Floating wall-mounts the cabinet and suppresses legs and plinths.

A floating body is limited to 160 cm wide, 100 cm high, and 40 cm deep. Switching an oversized body to Floating can trim it to that safe envelope. Connected lower cabinets share one mounting decision so an L-shaped or multi-arm group stays coherent. A cabinet stacked above another follows its support and has no independent floor base.

Wall mounting in the 3D planner is a design placement, not structural approval. A qualified installer must select fixings for the real wall, load, services, and local requirements.

Front mounting on the frameless body

The cabinet body has no structural face frame in either option. Inset places the 18 mm front inside the body opening with its outside face flush to the carcass. Full overlay places the same front outside the body so it covers the front edges and projects 1.8 cm farther into the room.

The editable Depth remains the carcass/body depth. The read-only finished depth equals body depth for an ordinary Inset front and body depth + 1.8 cm for an ordinary Full Overlay front. Proud face decoration is included in that finished envelope: for example, the applied Shaker frame adds another 1.0 cm. Projecting handles remain excluded, while sliding-track clearance is reported separately. The wall/back datum does not move when the front mounting changes.

Every physically connected facade run shares one front mounting choice, while an independent cabinet group may use another. A supported zero-gap upper remains part of its lower run. A wall-mounted upper across a positive worktop gap is a separate facade run, so its mounting may differ from the lowers. Door styles and colors may still differ inside a run. Gola is an inset carcass rail and is unavailable with Full Overlay; resolve existing Gola fronts before applying Full Overlay. The finger pull is the exact mirror: it opens a 3.2 cm finger gap above the top edge of each front, which on an Inset front would be a slot straight into the carcass, so it is unavailable with Inset; resolve existing finger-pull fronts before applying Inset. Full Overlay is also unavailable on L/U corner groups in this version because perpendicular fronts need a designed filler or miter detail to avoid collision.

Leg and base choices

Floor-mounted designs can expose:

  • No legs;
  • Plinth;
  • Poyla White or Poyla Black;
  • Castors;
  • Scandinavian Wood;
  • T-leg in Black, Gold, or Silver.

The available list depends on category, cabinet height, connected geometry, and installation rules. No legs add 0 cm, a plinth is 7 cm, castors are 6 cm, and Poyla, Scandinavian, and T-legs are 10 cm high. Discrete legs are limited to a cabinet body up to 150 cm high; no legs and plinth support the normal 300 cm body-height envelope. Guided dimensions normally describe the total floor-to-top height, while discrete legs in Free Design are generally added below the body. Read the live dimension label before comparing a design with site measurements.

Back panels

The cabinet-level Back panel control applies a default to all compartments. Select one compartment to override that setting for only that bay. A back panel hides the wall, contains small objects, supports cable-grommet placement, and can contribute to stability. Very large cabinets with an incomplete back can receive automatic rear supports in the calculated construction.

Open a bottom or side panel

Select a compartment and open Panel openings:

  • Turn the Bottom panel off only for a floor-resting lower bay, such as a refrigerator, dispenser, or desk knee space. Floating cabinets cannot create a floor opening.
  • Turn the Left side panel or Right side panel off only when that compartment touches the corresponding outside edge. Any front on that side-access opening is removed automatically.

Drawers, hanging rails, wardrobe lifts, and TROFAST runners need side support and conflict with an open side. A cushion needs a closed bottom. The editor disables impossible combinations and explains why.

Rounded front corners

Supported corner choices are None, both front corners, front-left, front-right, and all sides. A 12 cm curve needs roughly 22 cm body width on one side or 34 cm on both, and about 14 cm depth. A 30 cm display curve needs roughly 55 cm width on one side or 85 cm on both, and 32 cm depth. The persisted production envelope supports 8–40 cm, while the UI presents the validated 12 and 30 cm presets. Joined inside edges in an L- or U-shaped group remain square so the connection stays supported.

Shelves inside a rounded outside bay follow the curve. A curve can be unavailable when the cabinet is too narrow, the wrong edge is selected, or a connected cabinet junction needs the straight support zone.

After changing construction, review accessory fit and the materials summary.
