Installation Guide



Where To Begin Installation

Start in the corner if layout includes:

  • Base Blind Corner
  • Base Corner
  • Base Corner Revolving

If there is no corner, start at an obstructed end that begins at a wall or appliance.

Blind Corner Cabinets

Before moving the Base Blind Corner Cabinet into the corner, attach Filler and counter top brace to the wall.

Attach Filler to Adjacent Cabinet
Figure 4

  • The Blind Corner Filler/Panel provides clearance between 90 cabinets for drawer and door pull hardware. Check for adequate clearance.
  • If pull hardware needs more clearance, use a wider Filler.


Loosely clamp Filler and Blind Panel to Face Frame of adjacent base cabinet.

Align Filler perfectly with the top and front of the Cabinet Face Frame. Tighten clamps.

Predrill (see "Drill and Fasten Face Frames", page 8) through the Cabinet Face Frame into the Filler.
Use provided screws to fasten Filler.

Attach Counter Top Brace to Wall Studs
Figure 5

The Base Blind Corner Cabinet will leave a gap at the corner wall, cut a 23"-long brace from 1 x 3 lumber.

Place the brace against the corner wall so its top exactly matches the Base Cabinet Level Line. Use appropriate screws (not provided) to fasten into wall studs.

Fasten Base Blind Corner to Adjacent Cabinet

Position hidden end of the Base Blind Corner Cabinet at the proper spacing from the wall. The spacing is determined by the opposite end of the row of cabinets; this dimension should be noted on the layout.

Push adjacent cabinet (with Filler/Panel attached) against the Base Blind Corner Cabinet.

Shim cabinets so they match the Base Cabinet Level Line, the Face Frames align perfectly, and the Face Frames are plumb.

Attach clamp between cabinet tops.

Drill two 1\8" pilot holes through Base Blind Corner Cabinet Face Frame Center Stile into top and bottom edge of the Filler (Top View). Fasten with Face Frame Screws provided.

Drill two more pilot holes from interior into top and bottom of the Blind Panel. Fasten with 1 1/4" screws (not provided).
