Storage Cabinets — Expert Answer
How deep should an office storage cabinet be?
Standard office storage cabinet depth is 18"–24". Shallow cabinets (12"–15") work as countertop overheads or narrow utility units. Standard depth (18"–20") accommodates most office supplies, binders, and boxes. Deeper cabinets (24") accommodate larger equipment or provide more storage volume per shelf. Ensure adequate clearance in front of the cabinet for door swing (add 20"–24" for clearance when specifying placement).
