Instructions

- 1
  Measure the dimensions of the corner that you plan to place the cabinet. Bring these measurements with you when you shop.
- 2
  Check online and read consumer magazines for feedback on various corner cabinets. Narrow your search based on the experience of others.
- 3
  Choose a style and finish that will complement your existing décor.
- 4
  Find a cabinet with the proper dimensions. If it isn't going to fit, there's no reason to waste time looking at it.
- 5
  Check the construction of the cabinet. The pieces should fit well together and have a solid feel.
- 6
  Look for adjustable shelves to allow more storage options.
- 7
  See if you can select which side the door mounts to the cabinet frame. This is a nice option if you have other furniture near the corner and don't want to bang the door into something.
- 8
  Find out what kind of mounting hardware you will need (if any) to install the cabinet. Some cabinets include the hardware; some do not.
- 9
  Bring the cabinet home and install. Save all your materials and receipts in case you have to return it.
