Abstract

A cabinet includes a pair of spaced apart opposingly oriented, molded side panels, a molded rear panel disposed between the side panels at first edges thereof and joined thereto, a molded top panel disposed at an uppermost edge of the side and rear panels, a molded base panel in spaced, opposing relation to the top panel, disposed at a bottommost edge of the side and rear panels and a pair of pivotal, molded front door panels disposed in opposing relation to the rear panel and between the side panels and pivotally joined thereto. The cabinet includes corner support posts positioned at at least two corners that extend between the base panel and the top panel. The posts that traverse through and join the respective side panels with the door panels define front corners forming pintles defining axes for pivoting the door panels relative to the side panels. The cabinet includes clamping members for securing the posts to the top and base panels, through the cabinet corners. The cabinet includes shelves and bins that are height adjustable that slide along rails formed in the cabinet side panels.
