36-Inch Unfinished Shaker Diagonal Base Corner Cabinet
The UBCC36 is a 36-inch Unfinished Shaker Diagonal Base Corner Cabinet designed to make one of the most challenging areas in a kitchen easier to use. Occupying 36 inches on each adjoining wall, it provides generous corner storage with direct access through two bi-fold doors.
Unlike a blind corner cabinet, a diagonal corner cabinet allows you to access the cabinet interior from the front. This makes it a practical choice for homeowners who want usable corner storage without reaching deep into a hidden blind section.
Why Choose a Diagonal Corner Cabinet?
The corner cabinet determines how the two adjoining cabinet runs meet, making it one of the most important choices in a kitchen layout. A diagonal corner cabinet creates a symmetrical 36-inch footprint on both walls while providing direct access to the storage area inside.

Cabinet Layout & Design Guide
before placing your order.
36-Inch Corner Footprint
The UBCC36 occupies 36 inches of wall space on each adjoining wall. This creates a straightforward corner footprint while providing a larger interior storage area than many standard base cabinets.
Because the front of the cabinet is positioned diagonally across the corner, the doors provide direct access to the interior instead of hiding part of the cabinet behind an adjoining cabinet run.
Direct Access Through the Bi-Fold Doors
The two bi-fold doors open together to provide direct access to the corner cabinet interior. This makes it easier to load, organize, and remove cookware, mixing bowls, small appliances, and other larger kitchen items.
The wide diagonal opening also makes the cabinet easier to use than a blind corner configuration, where part of the storage area extends behind the adjoining cabinet run.
Works with a 28-Inch Lazy Susan
The cabinet includes one adjustable shelf for standard storage. Many homeowners remove the shelf and install a compatible 28-inch Lazy Susan to bring stored items forward and make better use of the corner.
American Made Cabinets does not sell Lazy Susan hardware. Accessory dimensions and installation requirements vary, so always verify compatibility with the accessory manufacturer before ordering.
Common Storage Uses
- Large cookware and stock pots
- Mixing bowls
- Serving platters
- Small kitchen appliances
- Bulk pantry items
- Food storage containers
- Items used less frequently
Built to Last
Built in America, the UBCC36 features a premium solid maple face frame and solid maple Shaker bi-fold doors with recessed maple plywood center panels. The cabinet box is constructed from durable birch plywood. Our cabinets are built without MDF or particleboard.
Soft-close concealed hinges provide smooth, quiet operation. The adjustable shelf offers flexible storage and can be removed when installing a compatible Lazy Susan. The unfinished maple exterior is ready for paint, stain, or clear coat, while the cabinet interior already includes a clear natural protective finish.
Before You Order
Corner cabinets have a significant effect on the entire kitchen layout. Before ordering, confirm the 36-inch footprint on both adjoining walls and account for neighboring cabinets, appliances, fillers, door clearances, and countertop dimensions.
If you plan to install a Lazy Susan, verify the accessory manufacturer's cabinet-opening and interior-clearance requirements. Compatibility should not be assumed based only on the advertised accessory diameter.

Finishing Your Unfinished Maple Cabinet
The unfinished maple exterior can be painted, stained, or clear coated to coordinate with your kitchen. 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.
Professional Recommendation
We recommend the UBCC36 when direct access to corner storage is more important than preserving space for a longer adjoining cabinet run. The diagonal opening makes cookware, mixing bowls, and small appliances easier to reach than they would be in a blind corner cabinet.
For improved organization, many homeowners remove the adjustable shelf and install a compatible 28-inch Lazy Susan. Before choosing between a diagonal corner cabinet and a blind corner cabinet, lay out both adjoining cabinet runs completely. The best corner cabinet is the one that creates the most functional overall kitchen—not simply the largest corner storage area.
