Nontraditional materials make visual sense with European-style freestanding base cabinets. Metals and colorful laminates are two options you can find fairly easily.
Tips for Installing Freestanding Cabinets
• Carefully unpack each carton and double-check hardware contents with instruction sheets.
• Use blue painters’ tape to tape hardware packets and instructions to their respective parts.
• Check nooks and crannies of packing materials. Hardware bags are often encased in packing materials.
• Parts may be grouped—for example, the ledger boards are packed with the toe kicks.
• If you are assembling large cabinets in another room, make sure you have the space to move them to the
kitchen when fully assembled.
• Make sure you have the proper side of the cabinet back facing the inside of the cabinet.
• Check that drawers are right side up before drilling handle holes.
• Fiberboard material is very heavy. You should have at least one helper when installing.
