Note:
Kimball International defines a structural wall as a load
-bearing wall constructed of materials such as: poured con-
crete, concrete block, or studs. Wood studs must be a nominal
2” x 4” size minimum. Metal studs must be “C” channel, 20
gauge thick minimum. Metal or wood studs must be on centers
no greater than 24” and have a maximum height of 14’ re-
strained at floor and ceiling. Interior walls shall be designed to
resist not less than a force of 5lbs. per square foot applied
perpendicular to wall. The deflection of such wall under load
of 5lbs. Per square foot shall not exceed 1/240 of the span for
walls with brittle finishes, and 1/120 of the span for walls with
flexible finishes (per Uniform Building Code Section 2309b). If
you have any questions concerning your load-bearing struc-
tures, please consult your architect or structural engineer.
1. Place overhead cabinet against structural wall in the de-
sired location. Mark the top edge of the overhead and set it
aside. Measure down 4 3/8” from the top edge mark and
draw a level line.
For 72 & 90” double height overheads,
draw a second line 16 11/16” down from the 4 3/8” line.
(Figure A).
2. Locate the wall substructure along the line drawing in step
1. For proper attachment of Hanger rail to the wall, fastens
must tie directly into the substructure of the wall (studs,
blocks, solid masonry).
3. Prepare wall for hanger rail attachment by pre-drilling for
and/or installing the fasteners along the line drawing in
step 1 per fastener manufacturer’s guidelines. Recom-
mended spacing of fasteners is 16”, but should not exceed
24” on center. DO NOT extend the hanger rail more than
6” beyond the last anchor attachment.
Note:
It is the responsibility of the installer and/or the
contractor to select and install proper fasteners in the
structural wall. Kimball International does not furnish
fasteners or assume liability for their use.
30” wall cabinets must attach to two (2) studs
36” wall cabinets must attach to two (2) studs
54” wall cabinets must attach to three (3) studs
72” wall cabinets must attach to three (3) studs
90” wall cabinets must attach to four (4) studs
