    Abstract: The improved storage cabinet incorporates several improvements. These improvements include cabinet doors with an interior space; adjustable door hinges that allow the assembler or end user to adjust the fit and movement of the doors; door hinges located on the periphery of the doors that are adapted so the doors do not require any clearance to open; a shelf/drawer mounting system that allows a shelf or drawer to be mounted directly to the side wall of the cabinet without the necessity of a mounting bracket; and a shelf/drawer mounting system that allows for the easy interchange of drawers and shelves both during production and by an end-user. These features, can be implemented as individual improvements of a cabinet or can be implemented as combinations or subcombinations of improvements of a cabinet.
