Unfinished Shaker Base Cabinet 39" Wide

39-Inch Unfinished Shaker Base Cabinet

The UB39 is a 39-inch-wide Unfinished Shaker Base Cabinet featuring two side-by-side drawers, two doors, and one adjustable shelf. If your kitchen layout has room for a larger base cabinet, the UB39 provides generous storage for cookware, countertop appliances, and everyday kitchen essentials while maintaining the organization of two separate drawers.

The additional cabinet width makes the UB39 an excellent choice for homeowners who want to maximize storage without stepping up to the largest standard base cabinet.

Why Choose a UB39 Base Cabinet?

The primary reason to choose the UB39 is simple—more storage. Compared to a UB36 Base Cabinet, the additional width provides more room for larger cookware, countertop appliances, serving pieces, and other bulky kitchen items.

If your layout comfortably accommodates a UB39, the extra storage can help reduce countertop clutter by giving frequently used items a dedicated place inside the cabinet.

Common Uses for a UB39

The two upper drawers are commonly used for:

• Cooking utensils
• Measuring cups and spoons
• Kitchen towels
• Foil, plastic wrap, and parchment paper
• Cooking gadgets
• BBQ tools

The cabinet below is ideal for storing:

• Pots and pans
• Large mixing bowls
• Crock-Pots and slow cookers
• Air fryers
• Stand mixers
• Small kitchen appliances
• Baking dishes
• Food storage containers

UB39 vs. UB36

The UB36 Base Cabinet is one of our most frequently recommended base cabinet sizes because it offers an excellent balance of storage and versatility.

Choose the UB39 when your layout has room for additional storage and you have larger cookware or countertop appliances that benefit from the wider cabinet interior.

UB39 vs. UB42

If your kitchen can accommodate a UB42 Base Cabinet, you'll gain even more storage capacity. The best choice depends on your available space and how much cabinet storage your kitchen requires.

Designed for Everyday Kitchens

Our two-door base cabinets are built without a center stile between the doors. When both doors are open, you have full access to the cabinet interior, making it easier to store and remove large cookware, countertop appliances, and other bulky kitchen items.

The partial overlay Shaker design remains a favorite for traditional, Craftsman, farmhouse, and transitional kitchens. The exposed face frame also provides a comfortable grip for opening the doors and drawers, allowing decorative hardware to be added whenever you choose—but never requiring it.

Built to Last

Built in America, the UB39 features a solid maple face frame, solid maple Shaker doors and drawer fronts with recessed maple plywood center panels, and a durable birch plywood cabinet box. Unlike many mass-produced cabinets, we build our cabinets using premium hardwood and furniture-grade plywood—never MDF, particleboard, or other engineered wood products—for long-term strength, durability, and dependable everyday performance.

Every drawer is built with a durable 1/2-inch plywood drawer bottom to support everyday kitchen utensils, cookware, and household items. Soft-close concealed hinges and full-extension soft-close drawer glides provide smooth, quiet operation. The drawer box is constructed with dado and dowel joinery for strength, alignment, and long-term durability. The unfinished maple exterior is ready for paint, stain, or clear coat, while the cabinet interior already includes a clear natural protective finish.

Finishing Your Unfinished Maple Cabinet

The unfinished maple exterior is ready for paint, stain, or a clear finish. Maple can absorb stain unevenly, so proper preparation with a quality wood conditioner or sanding sealer is recommended before staining.

Before finishing your cabinet, review our Cabinet Finishing Guide for Unfinished Maple Cabinets. The cabinet interior already includes a clear natural protective finish and should not be painted or stained.

Assembly

The cabinet ships Ready-to-Assemble using our pocket screw construction system for fast, accurate assembly. Pocket screw construction creates a strong cabinet while simplifying installation for both homeowners and professional installers. The doors arrive pre-hung, and complete assembly instructions are included.

Professional Recommendation

The UB39 is an excellent choice when you have room for a larger base cabinet and want to maximize everyday storage. It offers generous space for cookware, countertop appliances, and pantry items while keeping frequently used kitchen tools organized in two convenient top drawers.

If your layout comfortably accommodates a larger cabinet, we generally recommend taking advantage of the additional storage. More cabinet space gives you greater flexibility today and helps your kitchen adapt to changing storage needs for years to come.
