proper fit to complete a cabinet run, decorative fillers require a 3” spac-
ing between cabinets.

frame (Figure 23).
• Pre-drill holes through cabinet side at a position 3/8” behind face
frame (two holes on right side and two holes on left side). Use a

cabinet adjacent to curved cabinet (Figure 24).

Step 10. Toe Kick Installation
The toe kick should be attached once all of your cabinets have been
installed and secured to the wall. Cut the toe kick to your exact dimen-
sions. Use small finishing nails to attach the toe kick to your cabinets. It is
recommended that a bead of high quality caulking material be used to
seal the toe kick to the floor (Figure 25).Use touch up fill stick (provided)
on any exposed edges of the toe kick.
