Step 01
Measure Wall A
Measure the first cabinet run from one end to the corner or stopping point. This is usually the main wall with the sink, range, or longest cabinet section.

What is an L-shaped kitchen?
An L-shaped kitchen is a two-wall kitchen layout where cabinet runs meet at a corner. It is common in condos, townhomes, and family homes because it provides more storage and work surface than a single straight cabinet run while keeping the kitchen open.
An L-shaped kitchen is usually more detailed to estimate than a straight kitchen because it may include a corner cabinet, two countertop runs, appliance placement on two walls, and more installation review.
- Two connected cabinet runs
- One main wall and one secondary wall
- Usually includes a corner cabinet or corner solution
- More realistic than a simple 10x10 benchmark for many homes
- Final pricing still requires measurement and project review
How to measure an L-shaped kitchen for an estimate
You do not need a finished design plan to start. For an early online estimate, measure the two main cabinet runs and note where the major appliances may go.
Step 02
Measure Wall B
Measure the second cabinet run from the corner to the other end. This wall may include extra base cabinets, wall cabinets, pantry storage, or appliance openings.
Step 03
Note appliances and sink position
Mark where the refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, sink, range hood, and other key appliances may go. These locations affect cabinet configuration and countertop planning.
Step 04
Choose countertop and installation scope
Countertop, cutouts, seams, waterfall edge options, and cabinet installation can affect the planning range. You can select these options in the online estimator.
Estimating an L-shaped 10x10 kitchen?
For an L-shaped 10x10 example, enter 10 ft for Wall A and 10 ft for Wall B in the estimator. This gives you a simple two-wall benchmark before final measurement.
What affects the cost of an L-shaped kitchen?
An L-shaped kitchen estimate depends on more than the total wall length. The corner, cabinet composition, countertop layout, appliances, and site conditions can all affect the confirmed project scope.
Length of both cabinet runs
Wall A and Wall B together determine the main cabinet length used for the early planning range.
Corner cabinet solution
Blind corner cabinets, lazy Susan options, corner drawers, fillers, and finished panels can change cabinet planning and installation details.
Drawer and tall cabinet count
Drawer-heavy sections, pantry cabinets, tall cabinets, pull-outs, and specialty storage can affect the final project price.
Countertop seams and cutouts
L-shaped kitchens often require more countertop layout review, including seams, sink cutouts, cooktop cutouts, overhangs, and backsplash decisions.
Appliance layout
Refrigerator, range, dishwasher, sink, and range hood locations affect cabinet sizing, fillers, panels, and workflow.
Installation and site conditions
Walls, floors, corner angles, old cabinet removal, access, and on-site adjustments are reviewed before final pricing.
Plumbing, gas, electrical work, permits, strata approval, demolition, and other site-specific work are reviewed separately unless they are explicitly included in a confirmed project scope.
L-shaped kitchen vs straight kitchen estimate
A straight kitchen and an L-shaped kitchen may use similar cabinet styles, but the layout changes the way the project is estimated.
Straight Kitchen
- One main wall run
- Simpler cabinet count
- Simpler countertop run
- Usually easier to estimate
- Fewer corner details
L-Shaped Kitchen
- Two connected cabinet runs
- Corner cabinet planning
- More countertop layout review
- More appliance placement options
- Often more realistic for many homes
L-shaped kitchen estimate vs 10x10 benchmark
A 10x10 kitchen is a useful cabinet pricing benchmark, but an L-shaped estimate is more practical when your real kitchen has two connected cabinet runs. Instead of relying only on a sample package, you can enter Wall A and Wall B to build a planning range closer to your layout.
If you want a simple comparison, you can use the 10x10 guide first. If you already know your two wall lengths, start with the online estimator and enter the dimensions for your actual kitchen.
How to estimate an L-shaped kitchen online
Use the online estimator to start with a real cabinet style, then enter the two wall runs for your L-shaped layout.
Step 01
Choose a cabinet style
Start from one of the current kitchen cabinet collections and choose the look you prefer.
Step 02
Open the estimator
Click "Estimate This Style" or go directly to the online estimator to start your planning range.
Step 03
Choose the L-shaped layout
Select the layout that most closely matches your two-wall kitchen. Use the estimator's current layout options and dimension fields.
Step 04
Enter Wall A and Wall B dimensions
Enter the two main cabinet runs, such as 8 ft + 10 ft, 10 ft + 10 ft, or the approximate lengths from your kitchen.
Step 05
Add countertop and installation options
Choose whether to include countertop, waterfall edge options, cabinet installation, or other supported planning items.
Step 06
Review your preliminary range
The estimator will show a preliminary range based on the selected cabinet style, layout, dimensions, countertop choice, and installation scope. Final project pricing depends on measurement and confirmed local service availability.
Exact measurements are not required to start. Final dimensions are confirmed during local measurement.

Estimate This StyleCountertop and installation notes for L-shaped kitchens
L-shaped kitchens often need more countertop review than a single straight run. The countertop may require seam planning, sink or cooktop cutouts, overhang review, backsplash decisions, and corner support details.
Installation should also be reviewed carefully because wall angles, floor level, cabinet alignment, and corner conditions can affect the final scope.
Countertop seams
Sink and cooktop cutouts
Corner support and overhangs
Backsplash decisions
Waterfall edge options if selected
Wall and floor conditions
Access and installation adjustments
Countertop and installation are planning components unless they are clearly included in a confirmed project quote.

L-shaped kitchen cabinet estimate FAQ
What are Wall A and Wall B in an L-shaped kitchen?+
Wall A and Wall B are the two connected cabinet runs that meet at the corner. Measure each run separately so the estimator can reflect the two-wall layout more clearly.
Are L-shaped kitchen cabinets more expensive than straight kitchen cabinets?+
They can be, because an L-shaped kitchen usually has two cabinet runs, corner planning, and more countertop layout review than a simple straight kitchen. The final range depends on cabinet style, dimensions, countertop, installation, and site conditions.
How do I measure an L-shaped kitchen?+
Measure Wall A and Wall B separately, then note the corner, sink, refrigerator, range, dishwasher, and other appliance locations. Approximate dimensions are enough to start an online estimate.
Does an L-shaped kitchen need a corner cabinet?+
Usually, an L-shaped kitchen needs some kind of corner solution. The exact cabinet type depends on the layout, storage needs, cabinet collection, and final design review.
Can I estimate an L-shaped kitchen online?+
Yes. Use the online estimator to choose a cabinet style, select the closest layout, enter two wall lengths, and add countertop or installation options.

Yes. For an L-shaped 10x10 example, enter 10 ft for Wall A and 10 ft for Wall B. This gives you a simple two-wall benchmark before final measurement.
Does the estimate include countertop?+
Countertop is optional and should be selected in the estimator if you want it included in the planning range.
Does the estimate include installation?+
Installation can be included as a planning allowance, removed, or reviewed later depending on your selected scope.
Is the online estimate a final quote?+
No. The online estimate is a preliminary planning range. Final project pricing depends on measurement, material review, layout confirmation, site-condition review, and confirmed local service availability.
