It is often more shallow than the rest of the cabinet and allows room for the toe kick, which is the space beneath the front of the cabinets where cooks can place their feet while they are working. The base skin blocks the area underneath the cabinet from food and dirt while allowing chefs to maintain their balance when working on the countertop.
