Wall Cabinet Installation Guide

For additional support on cabinets that will be loaded with heavy contents, we have included corner brackets to be used when installing. For base cabinets, these brackets can also be used to secure counter-tops with wood substrates.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT ATTACH THE CABINET SOLELY TO DRYWALL.

STUDS:

  • Secure to wall with #10 x 3” screws at stud location.
  • Important: Use “pan head” or “round head” screws with seat washers. Seat screws tightly against the back rail or panel without driving into the back rail or panel material.

STARTING IN A CORNER:

  • Always start in a corner where two runs of cabinets will come together or at the end of the cabinet run (if there is no corner.) All doors and drawers will need to be removed before installation.
  • Locate and mark wall studs for mounting hardware placement. Cabinets must be mounted to studs where available. Place the cabinet into position, and use a level and shims (if needed) to ensure the cabinet is level and plumb.
  • IMPORTANT: Shim cabinets square (flat) to the wall so there are no gaps between the back of the cabinet and the wall in the mounting area.
  • Drill a 3/16” pilot hole at the stud locations through the back panel and into the stud. Make sure to position screws 1” or more from the top, bottom, and sides. Mount the cabinet to the wall with hardware appropriate for your wall type.
  • Once your corner cabinets have been installed, work outward to install the remaining cabinets.

ATTACH CABINETS:

  • a. Mounting hardware
  • b. Check to level & ensure square flat to wall
  • c. Shim if necessary, installation shims are not included
    • After the corner cabinet is secured to the wall, use-clamps to align the next cabinet to the first cabinet. Use a level to be sure the adjoining cabinets are flush and level with each other. If needed, shim the cabinets to level.
    • Drill a 1/8” pilot hole in the face frame above or below each door hinge location. Attach the second cabinet to the first cabinet using a #8 x2½” screw and counter sink for best appearance. Always attach cabinets at the face frame as shown. Do not attach through the cabinet side panel.
    • ATTENTION: You must drill pilot holes to attach cabinets. Cabinet drawers and doors should line up as shown below.

INSTALL REMAINING CABINETS:

  • a. Mounting hardware
  • b. Check to level & ensure square flat to wall
  • c. Shim if necessary, installation shims are not included
  • d. Scrap Block
  • e. 1/8” Diameter
    • Drill a 3/16” pilot hole at the stud locations through the back panel and into the stud. Level and mount the cabinet to the wall with hardware appropriate for your wall type. If needed, shim the cabinet to level.
    • DO NOT COMPLETELY TIGHTEN MOUNTING SCREWS UNTIL ALL CABINETS HAVE BEEN ATTACHED.
    • After all cabinets have been attached and are level and secure, then tighten all mounting screws. Take care to seat mounting screws tightly against the back panel without driving into the back panel material. Check to be sure that all cabinets remain level after tightening.
    • NOTE: To attach a wall cabinet to a TALL PANTRY unit, drill a 1/8” pilot hole 7/8” deep through the wall cabinet face frame to the tall pantry unit. Use a #8 x 1-5/8” screw to secure cabinets together. After cabinets are installed it will be necessary to adjust doors and drawers for proper alignment.

DOOR AND DRAWER ALIGNMENT: After cabinets are installed it will be necessary to adjust doors and drawers for proper alignment.

HINGE ADJUSTMENT

  • Review the illustrations to locate the hinge on your specific cabinet.

Silicone Pads:

  • Attach silicone pads (BB) on the top and bottom corners of each door.
