Attach
Base Cabinets to Wall
Figure
10
After Base Cabinets are fastened to each other, prepare to attach
cabinets to the wall.
Re-check each cabinet for level front-to-back and side-to-side. Check
each front for plumb.
Add shims if there is any space between cabinet and wall. Otherwise,
fastening screws will pull cabinet to the wall and out of square.
Use 1/8" bit to drill the length of screw provided. Next use
7/32" bit to enlarge hole thru cabinet Back Rail. Predrill through
cabinet Back Rail (and shims) into each wall stud location. With 18"
and wider cabinets, fasten screws into two wall studs.
With narrower cabinets you may only be able to fasten into one wall
stud. In this case be sure to attach to adjacent Face Frames. To make
screw driving easier, rub paraffin or bee's wax on the screws.
Replace Doors and Drawers
Replace doors and drawers.
Hold drawer or tray with back angled up. Place rollers into slide
channel. Lift front slightly higher than the back and push.
Check Drawer and Roll-Out Tray Alignment

Drawer slides can be moved at the back for self-alignment.
Check to be sure drawers close squarely at the front. To adjust, hold
slides at back and shift slides left or right until front is aligned
with Face Frame and rolls in and out freely. |
