Acoustic Panel Cabinet Base Height Calculation
Acoustic Panel Cabinet Base Height Calculation
C
= Cabinet Base Height + 1.25"
B
= Bas Finish Floor Height*
G
= Baseboard Gap (min 0.5”)
B
= Cabinet Base Size
(Min 5", increases in 1" increments)
B = B + G -
1.25”
Note: *Include flooring thickness, underlayment, and any
concrete leveling as part of calculation.
Example:
If using a 5" baseboard, with 1” Flooring height, and 0.5" gap
B = (5” + 1”) + (0.5)
- 1.25 = 5.25"
Hence a 6" Cabinet Base is required
