Spacer for filling a space between two adjacent modular cabinets

A combination of two adjacent modular cabinets and a spacer for filling a space between the cabinets, the combination comprising:

• two adjacent cabinets, each cabinet having side walls, including side wall edges, the side walls having a predetermined length and a predetermined width, and a front wall, the cabinets being arranged such that at least one of the side walls of one of the cabinets is adjacent to and spaced by a first predetermined distance from at least one of the side walls of the other cabinet to form a space therebetween;
• at least one front filler positioned in the space between the cabinets, the front filler having a length generally equal to the length of the adjacent side walls of the cabinets, a generally central portion having a width generally corresponding to the first predetermined distance, and a pair of generally parallel grooves located on an underside thereof extending the length of the filler and being located within the space between the cabinets, the front filler including attachment means for securing the front filler to at least one of the adjacent cabinets such that the two modular cabinets and the front filler form a single unit, with the front filler and the side wall edges of the adjacent cabinets being coplanar,
• at least one side filler positioned in the space between the cabinets, the side filler having a length generally equal to the width of at least one of the adjacent sidewalls, a generally central portion having a width generally corresponding to the width of the central portion of the front filler, and a pair of generally parallel grooves located on an underside thereof extending the length of the side filler and being located within the space between the cabinets, the side filler including attachment means for securing the side filler to at least one of the adjacent cabinets, with the side filler and the side wall edges of the adjacent cabinets being coplanar;
• and
• attaching means for attaching said front filler to said side filler, the attaching means including a first wall and a second wall wherein the second wall is at an angle with respect to the first wall, the first wall being received within the grooves of the front filler and the second wall being received within the grooves of the side filler such that the front filler and the side filler are adjacent one another at an angle equal to the angle between the first and second walls of the attaching means, wherein the cabinets, the front filler and the side filler form a single unit in which the central portion of the side filler is adjacent the adjacent side walls of each cabinet and the front filler is adjacent the front walls of each cabinet.
