Shelves Wall Cabinet (SHC)

  5. Legs
  6. Materials, Tags and Stocks

An open wall-hung shelving unit: top, bottom, sides and a solid back panel (full panel, not thin fiber), with always-on shelves and no doors. One front corner can optionally be rounded: the curve replaces that corner of the top, bottom and every shelf, and the side panel on the curved side is omitted.

Dimensions

Width - number, mm, default 450, min 150. Outer cabinet width.

Height - number, mm, default 700, min 100. Outer cabinet height.

Depth - number, mm, default 330, min 100. Outer cabinet depth, front to back.

Panel Thickness - number, mm, default 18, min 5, max 50. One thickness drives every carcass panel, shelf, divider and rail. Doors have their own Door Thickness.

Shelves

Shelves are spaced evenly with equal clear heights. Shelf depth is the cabinet depth minus the shelf front inset and the back inset. At least 50 mm of clear height per shelf gap is enforced; too many shelves for the height is a validation error.

This unit has no Back Spacing section - shelves stop at the solid back panel instead, so shelf depth is the cabinet depth minus the back panel thickness and the front inset.

Number of Shelves - number, default 2, min 0, max 10. Number of shelves, spaced evenly.

Shelf front inset - number, mm, default 0. Setback of the shelves from the carcass front edge.

Curved Corner

Add curved corner - checkbox, default off. Rounds one front corner: a quarter-circle arc replaces that corner of the top, bottom and every shelf, and the side panel on the curved side is omitted.

Curve Side - choice, options "Left" / "Right", default Left. Which front corner is rounded. Shown while Add curved corner is checked.

Curve Radius - number, mm, default 50. Radius of the quarter circle. Must be at least 20, under half the width and under the depth. Shown while Add curved corner is checked.

Curve Segments - number, default 12, min 4, max 36. How many straight segments approximate the arc. Shown while Add curved corner is checked.

Back Panel

Back Panel Thickness - number, mm, default 18, min 5. Thickness of the solid back panel (shelving units use a full panel instead of thin fiber). Defaults to the panel thickness.

Legs

Legs are placed 50 mm in from the cabinet corners; a 5th and 6th leg go front and back center. Their length comes from the selected leg stock's catalog length - with no leg stock selected (or a stock without a length), no legs are generated. When placing the cabinet, it is lifted so the legs rest on the clicked plane.

Leg Stock - stock picker, default Catalog leg default. Leg hardware from the stock catalog; the leg length comes from the stock's catalog entry. None generates no legs.

Leg Count - number, default 0, min 0, max 6. Number of legs. Floor types default to 4; wall-hung types default to 0.

Materials, Tags and Stocks

Three assignments per part group. Material is the visual finish only - leave it as None to use the assigned Stock's catalog material. Tag sets the part's SketchUp tag (model organization and visibility). Stock selects the catalog sheet the part is cut from - it drives nesting (which sheet the panel lands on) and pricing. One Uniform/Individual toggle switches between a single Frame row for the whole carcass and one row per part group. The separate rows (Fiber, Door, and where present Gola Rail or the HDF rows) always apply regardless of the toggle.

This type uses the simple form: one Frame row with a Material, Tag and Stock choice for the whole unit.
