Installing the wall cabinets/frames
In most kitchens it's best to install your wall cabinets
and frames first. This way you have room to move
without base cabinets in the way.
If you have an extractor hood placed under a cabinet,
you need to make some cut-outs in the cabinet
before you place it on the wall. Follow the assembly
instruction of the extractor hood to prepare the
required cut-outs. After you've made the required
cut-outs, remember to seal the open edges with
silicone.
Proceed with the next cabinet, using a clamp to align
the two cabinets before you screw them together
with the screws enclosed with the cabinet.
Start from the corner of your room. Place the cabinet
on top of the supporting strip and slide it into
position.
As you place the cabinet adjusted for the extractor
hood, make sure you can access the electrical outlet
via the previously made cut-out.
Reminder
Fastening/fixing devices for the wall (i.e. screws
and plugs) are not included with the cabinets
and frames since different wall materials re-
quire different types of fastening devices. Use
fastening devices suitable for the walls in your
home. For advice on suitable fastening devices,
contact your local specialised dealer.
Fix the cabinet using the appropriate length and type
of screw. (Throughout the installation process you
may need to loosen the screws a bit in order to make
smaller adjustments when aligning the cabinets and
frames.)
When you have placed and and aligned all cabinets
and open frames, it is time to secure them in their
final location. Before you tighten all screws a final
time, use the level to check that all angles are
straight.
