LINEN INSTALLATION 

Hardware for installation not included. To fasten the linen to the 

wall, drill pilot holes at the stud location through the top back rail, 

then fasten with #8 x 2” screws. If the linen sits in between the 

studs,you will need to use toggle bolts to fasten to the wall. It is 

not recommended to place the linen in a corner where the back 

is not against a wall. 

NOTE: 

A 3” Linen Filler must be used if one side of the linen is 

placed next to a wall. This will prevent doors and drawers from 

rubbing. 

The linen comes with two side molding pieces to install over the 

seam line between the upper and lower units. If a side of the linen 

is against a wall or cabinet DO NOT install these pieces on that 

side. If a side of the linen IS NOT against a wall or cabinet, use 

finishing nails (not provided) to nail the side molding over the seam 

line. Three to four finishing nails per side should be sufficient. Use 

the color stick provided in the parts bag to color over the top of 

the finishing nails to hide the nail heads. Install one side molding 

piece per side.

INSTALL BASE CABINETS 

NOTE:

 Fillers must be used when a drawer bank or vanity is next 

to a wall. Minimum of 1/4” or drawers will rub. 

When starting the installation process, it is very important to start 

your installation from a corner wall and work out. If the wall is not 

straight, you may need to use a filler and scribe it to the wall’s 

shape (Figure 8). Fillers may also be used to accommodate wall 

to wall installations where the cabinets do not fit exactly. 

Once you have identified the starting point, take the first cabinet 

and shim it to the previously established level line. Drill pilot holes 

at the stud location, through the back rail and into the studs. Then 

securely fasten the cabinet to the wall,using #8 x 2

” screws 

and appropriate anchors (Do Not Nail). Make sure the cabinet 

remains square and level after wall attachment. 

ATTACH CABINETS TOGETHER 

Once you have securely fastened the starting cabinet to the wall, 

line up the front of the cabinets and use “C” clamps to simply join 

the next cabinet to it. Place the “C” clamps on the adjoining stiles 

and carefully clamp the two together. Carefully line up the top and 

shim the bottom of the cabinets. Now drill a pilot hole,using a

drill bit, through the adjoining stiles. Once done, draw the two 

together, use two #8 x 2

NOTE:

 When securing a 24” curved base cabinet to another 

cabinet,use two #8 x 2

” woodscrews (Figure 10).

Installation Tip: Use a little wax on the screws to help seat them 

into the wood. 

Continue installing the remaining base cabinets in the same  

manner. After joining all of your base cabinets together, verify all 

cabinets are level and secure each cabinet to the wall.
