Where can I find reasonable custom cabinets online?
ScentualFlorals
I’m having a window removed from my kitchen above my sink and would love to replace it with a cabinet/plate rack sort of unit (if you watch Fresh Prince of Bel Air re-runs there’s one in their kitchen). Problem is, the space is 3.5 feet wide and I can’t find a plate rack/shelf in conventional sizes anywhere, let alone a custom size. I did find one at IKEA.com but it’s only 30″ wide. I don’t want to spend a whole lot of money because I’m already just about tapped out with my current home renovations.

home depot or lowes have a wonderful source of cabinet information. google it as custom kitchen cabinets.
you could put 12″ cabinets to either side with pull out shelves for storage. 30 +12 = 42 or 3.5′

Yeah, at many kitchen design centers you can order custom cabinets. Another option though at least if you live around the midwest is to have the Amish build custom cabinets for you. My mom had them build custom chairs and a custom table frame for her kitchen. They are pretty reasonable.

They aren’t custom but they do have wall cabinets in the size you need (42″ x all different sizes). The pricing is excellent so that shouldn’t pose a problem. As an added plus I can tell you from experience that the quality is great.
Maybe if you just take off the doors, you can get what you want.
