In the follow

The Step 4 poster will guide you through the
process of installing base cabinets and high cabi-
nets. These cabinets are designed with sturdy,
adjustable legs for easy levelling on uneven
floors. This step includes:
• Mounting the base cabinet wall strip
• Attaching cabinet legs
• Installing base cabinets
• Installing a high cabinet
• Levelling cabinets
• Securing cabinets together
• Installing filler pieces
• Installing a corner lazy-susan
IMPORTANT!
Before putting in any of these cabinets, be sure
to measure, mark and cut openings for plumbing,
power sources and other utilities.
Getting started
As with the wall cabinets, you’ll start by
installing the corner cabinet first. If your plan
doesn’t include a corner cabinet, start with the
cabinet that fits at the start of the run against
both the back and side walls.
