INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR HANGING WALL CABINETS
WARNING Read Installation Guide thorough-
ly before use and follow all safety precautions
and warnings. Improper installation can cause seri-
ous injury. Use proper Personal Protective Equip-
ment (PPE) including ANSI Z87.1 safety goggles
and work gloves with slip resistant coating.
DANGER To reduce the risk of serious or
fatal injury from fire, explosion, or electrocu-
tion, if gas line or electrical work is involved, have
the work done by a utility company or qualified
service professional. To reduce the risk of shock,
explosion, or injury, turn off all gas, electrical
and water connections prior to performing any
work. Shut off the power to all appliances and
receptables in the kitchen, including lights, at the
fuse-breaker box. Use a circuit tester to make
sure power is off.
WARNING To reduce risk of serious injury
from fall hazard, always use two or more
people for installation. Never attempt installation
without assistance.

Preparation | Before You Begin

1 Verify you have the correct cabinet sizes and
finish. Open and inspect all cabinets prior to
installation as damage can occasionally occur
during shipment from the factory.
2 Once you have ensured that the gas, water
and electric in the room are turned off, that the
plumbing, gas and power supplies are properly
capped, and have removed the old cabinetry and
baseboards, you need to assess the room.

3 Take special note of the floors and walls. Use a
level or straightedge to determine high spots and
other imperfections. Mark any bumpy or bulging
areas. You may have to prep the walls and floors
if things are not plumb, level and square. (Many
people prefer to repaint and replace the flooring
while the room is empty.) The time you spend
preparing the room will help ensure smoother,
easier installation of the cabinetry.
WARNING Failure to use proper screws and
screw placement to attach cabinets to the
wall may result in serious injury from collapse/
fall hazard. Only use screws listed in this Guide
for installations with drywall or wood stud con-
struction. Never use these screws for installation
with concrete, brick, or other material.
WARNING To reduce risk of serious injury
from collapse/fall hazard, if installing cabine-
try with material other than drywall or wood stud
construction, always consult an installation pro-
fessional to identify and obtain proper fasteners.
Prepare the Walls and Floors
1 Locate and mark all the studs using a stud
finder. (To verify the position of your studs,
drive a small finishing nail into the wall in an
area that will be covered up by a cabinet.)
2 Recheck your measurements. Make sure the
cabinets match the available space.
3 Gather the tools you will need as listed below.
• Work gloves with slip resistant coating
• Jigsaw or table saw
• Miter box
• Clamps or c-clamps
• Stud finder
• 6' step ladder
• Wood shims
