 COUNTERTOP PLACEMENT

Place the countertop back in the desired location and line up 

the pilot holes on the countertop to the corner block expansion 

holes that were previously drilled.

MOUNTING STEP 8 -

 FASTENING COUNTERTOP

On the underside of the sub-top cabinet base, place the washer on 

the screw and drive the screw into the expansion holes in the sub-top 

and pilot hole in the butcher block. Be careful not to over tighten. 

This concludes the CenterPointe standard mounting process.

MOUNTING STEP 6 -

 EXPANSION HOLES

Use  a  3/8”  drill  bit  to  create  an  expansion  hole  in  the  corner 

block cabinet base in the same location as the pilot holes in step 

4, repeat for each fastener. This will enlarge the pilot holes in the 

sub-top created with the 5/32” bit. DO NOT enlarge the pilot 

holes in the butcher block. 

NOTE: This allows the countertop to expand and contract 

after installation. Tops that are screwed down without 

expansion holes in the sub-top will be void of warranty.
