How to Install Wall Cabinets 02

Kitchen And Bathroom Renovation : How to Install Wall Cabinets 02




Attach the corner cabinet to the adjoining cabinet. From the inside corner cabinet, drill pilot holes through the face frame. Join the cabinets with sheet-metal screws.



Position and attach each additional cabinet. Clamp frames together, and drill counterbored pilot holes through the side of the face frame. Join the cabinets with wood screws. Drill 3⁄16" pilot holes in the hanging strips, and attach the cabinet to the studs with wood screws.



Join the frameless cabinets with #8 × 11⁄4" panhead wood screws or wood screws with decorative washers. Each pair of cabinets should be joined by at least four screws.



Fill the gaps between the cabinet and wall or neighboring appliance with a filler strip. Cut the filler strip to fit the space, then wedge wood shims between the filler and the wall to create a friction fit that holds it in place temporarily. Drill counterbored pilot holes through the side of the cabinet (or the edge of the face frame) and attach filler with screws.
