Has anyone found RTA cabinets to fit a 18" deep refrigerator? If so, what company did you find them?

The internet has many sources, some offer stock as well as custom sizes. You should be able to find a fridge cabinet. Or, most offer panels and matching trim pieces, which you could use to fabricate your own inclosure.

It seems the cabinet companies can't or don't build 18" deep cabinets that a refrigerator will fit in. So would any one know where I can get step by step instructions on how to build my own cabinets?

Yes they do. I have installed a few kitchens using RTA products, which included a fridge cabinet. The items were obtained from a local company called Busy Beaver. I have also built cabinets, using either plywood and veeners, or premanufactured panels such as this:

The fridge surround is sometimes built without a back, basically being two sides and usually a separate cabinet placed overhead. It is built to size after the fridge is chosen.

Another alternative is to purchase a RTA "pantry" cabinet. They are usually 24" deep, but because they ship disassembled, they are fairly easy to first modify.

Talking to the salesperson, you should be able to bargan for less than the advertised prices, because you won't need all of the multiple shelving or doors found in the completed units.

I am trying to decide on which RTA cabinets to order and would like an opinion on the methods that are used to join the sides of these cabinets.  Most seem to be a plastic 'cam-lock', which seems to me to not be very sturdy for our application.  Those of you that have used RTA cabinets, what do you think of these?
