I haven't finished along the left side yet, so 6". In back since it's covered up by cabinets and shelves again 6" In front about 1/2", and on the right about 1/2". Yesterday in the sun it expanded all the way, didn't have any extra space at all.

Phase 1 complete! First step was moving the costco shelving over: Here's my big pile of black boxes while moving the shelving. I love these things. Container Store, keep everything tidy and dust free. And here's the bins back on the shelf in it's new home: It's amazing how much crud gets...
