Depending on the age of your home, it is not uncommon for walls to not be perfectly square, or surfaces to be perfectly level.

Differentiating Between Kitchen Cabinet Box Styles
Submitted as: Jason Delmar

Over the 10 years, manufacturers have really made some significant improvements in the quality of stock cabinets.

Submitted as: Jason Delmar
