Completing the installation

Once all of the cabinets are installed, re-install the adjustable shelving, doors, false fronts and drawers. Make any needed 
adjustments. Next, install the knobs or handles (if applicable), along with any moulding. Drawer fronts can be adjusted by 
loosening the screws that attach the drawer front to the drawer box, repositioning the drawer front and re-tightening the 
screws. Doors can be adjusted in multiple locations using the screws built within the hinge. See adjustment details on page 
7. Do not remove the protective film on acrylics until after you drill for hardware.

Measure and cut the toe kicks and attach using finishing nails or panel adhesive. Run silicone caulking compound where 
the base cabinets meet the walls and floor and along the backsplash of the counter top to prevent any moisture from 
seeping in. After it is dry, wipe all of the cabinets with a mild soap, warm water and a clean soft cloth. Your completed 
cabinets are ready to enjoy for years to come.

 Helpful Hint: On some styles of cabinet door, the door swing can be reversed by moving the 

hinges to the other side of the cabinet, flipping the door and clipping it into position. Make sure 
you change the swing before drilling any handle or knob holes.

Tip: Make a jig by measuring and

marking the drill locations for

knob and/or pulls to aid in

decorative hardware installation.

WOOD DUST CAUTION! SAWING, SANDING OR MACHINING WOOD PRODUCTS CAN PRODUCE WOOD DUST 
WHICH CAN CAUSE A FLAMMABLE OR EXPLOSIVE HAZARD.

WARNING: Drilling, sawing, sanding, or machining wood products generates wood dust, a substance known to the 
State of California to cause cancer.  Avoid inhaling wood dust or use a dust mask or other safeguards for personal

dermatitis and/or respiratory allergic effects. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified 
wood dust as a nasal carcinogen in humans. Avoid dust contact with ignition sources. Avoid prolonged or repeated 
breathing of wood dust in air. Avoid dust contact with eyes and skin. First aid: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. In case of
