I need to confirm measurements for a corner. My floor to ceiling height is 91″, and I’d have 4″ for crown molding.
(A) Against the left side of a blind pantry cabinet in the corner, I’m planning a 6″ width b1dslimv2 (1 door base cabinet slim version) that is 43.5″ height & 24″ depth, stacked below a 6″ width w1dslimv2 (1 door wall cabinet slim version) that is 43.5″ height & 24″ depth. I’m planning TFE on the left side that is 83″ height.
(B) To the left of this slim stack will be a refrigerator, and with a w1dflipupaventoshkxs above the refrigerator and against the slim.
(C) For the blind pantry in the corner, I’m planning t1dblindcornerleftv2 (1 door blind corner TALL cabinet) that is 64″ height, 41″ width, 24″ depth, and 24″ blind, stacked below a w1dblindcornerleftv2 (1 door blind corner wall cabinet) that is 23″ height and 41″ width, 24″ depth, and 24″ blind.
(D) To the right of the blind pantry stack would be T1D (1 door pantry tall cabinet) that is 64″ height, 17″ width, and 24″ depth. stacked below a W1D (1 door wall cabinet) that is 23″ height and 17″ width, and 24″ depth.
+ 4″ crown molding across the all of these cabinets.
(1) How did I do?
(2) For (C) t1dblindcornerleftv2 and w1dblindcornerleftv2, Width includes the width measurement of the door and blind section, right? If so, the door width would be Width minus Blind, correct?
(3) The (C) blind pantry stack doors and the (D) pantry stack doors should be the same width, 17″, and line up right?
(4) Would the filler of the (C) blind pantry go against the (A) slim stack? The (C) blind section would not be directly against the (A) slim stack, right?Thanks, again!

Yes, this looks correct. You have a finished ceiling height of 91″ and a floor-to-finished-floor height of 91″ as well. Your cabinet stack totals approximately 87″ tall, leaving about 4″ of space for the crown molding package.
When installing the crown package, start with the flat backer first, then attach the 3″ tall crown to the face of the backer, leaving about 1″ of the backer’s face exposed beneath the crown. This 1″ of backer plus the 3″ of crown is ideal since it allows the molding to follow any slight waviness in the ceiling.
See the attached image for a top view of how the door width is calculated. Assuming a 24″ blind and a 48″ cabinet width (default on website), your door will be about 20 13/16″ wide. This is accurate, as the reveals and filler gaps are accounted for. Technically, the formula for calculating the door width is:
Door Width = Cabinet Width – 1/16 – 1/8 – 3 – Blind
Blind corner cabinets are all built the same way from a top-down perspective. You can certainly stack a wall blind corner on top of a tall blind corner—the doors will be the same width.
Looking at your current layout, the door widths between the blind stack and the tall stack to the right will not match. To equalize them, decrease the blind stack by 1.5″ in width and increase the tall stack on the right by 1.5″.
