| I am having trouble finding a shallow enough medicine cabinet to recess in our wall. The Kohler Aecher is too deep at 5 inches deep. Is this a common problem and what is done about it?
Many thanks, salbwil |

| I wouldn't think that 5" deep would be common. Mine are old but i think they're around 3" deep. take a look on HD or Lowe's just to see how deep theirs run. |

| Two of our Robern medicine cabinets are 3.5" or 4" deep. (we used a 6" deep one in the MB). We are very happy with them. |

| Have you looked at Sidler? We've just ordered a cabinet from this manufacturer. Wasn't cheap though! I think they have pretty slim depths that are less than 5". Their website has all the specs for each one under 'product lines' |

| I believe all of Kohler's cabinets are that deep, hence my problem. cat mom, which Robern cabinets did you use ? Thanks, Salbwil |

| The 3.75" deep cab we used is linked below ("PLM" series). The one in our hall bathroom is 19.25" x 30" (we used a narrower one in the guest bathroom, and the deeper version that I mentioned in my first post--6" deep from the "M" series, was used in the MB). There are different sizes/dimensions available in the different series. |

| Modern studs are only 3.5 inches deep. Anything more than that has to be from the cabinet protruding into the room. |
