Installing Floor Case Front L-Fillers
Floor case L-front fillers are commonly used to span the distance between the front edge of a floor case and a
wall. Front L-fillers include a slip joint, which is attached to the wall, and filler clips, which attach to the base
cabinet.
Steps:
A.
Using # 8 sheet metal screws, attach four filler clips along the front edge of the floor case (vertically).
B.
Fasten the slip joint to the wall using wall anchors and screws as required.
C.
Slide the L-front filler into the slip joint and the filler clips. L-front fillers slide into place with a friction
fit. No additional fasteners are required.
D.
Install the toe space filler to close the remaining gap under the L-front filler. This filler can be installed in
many ways. One common means of installation is to lap the toe space filler over the kick space on the
adjoining cabinet. The filler is then adhered to the filler using either epoxy glue or pop rivets.
Step A: Attach filler clips along the front edge of the floor case.
Step B: Fasten the slip joint to the wall.
Step C: Slide the “L” filler into the slip joint and the filler clips.
