Six shallow shelves behind a double door. Tilt the shelves slightly for a shoe-rack effect, or leave them flat for baskets.
What makes this design special

These are the cut sizes the cabinet designer computes (edge banding and kerf included). For drawers and doors, always check the clearance your own slides and hinges need.
Open this project in the cabinet designer with the button below. You see the cabinet in 2D right away and can change the sizes, material and layout parametrically; the panel sizes and the cutting plan follow along. Rather save it yourself?

Material and sheets needed
Based on the panel sizes above, this project takes about 2 sheets of 3/4 in (18 mm) plywood and 1 sheet of 1/4 in (6 mm) plywood (back panel). Prices vary by country and store, so check your local supplier; the tool works out the exact number of sheets and can show real prices from its material library.
