Mounting the Countertop to your
Cabinets
□

holes in your support blocks.

Using washers, screw the countertop all the way, then
withdraw the screw by a quarter turn to preserve the
natural wood work, while keeping the countertop in
position.

Joining Countertops
□
When joining kitchen countertops, use two or three clamps
at each joint, depending on the width.
□
It is further suggested to use suitable retainers.
□
The required distance between banding countertops and
the sink, hotplate, dishwasher, and so forth, cannot be less
than 4 in. (100 mm), nor can the countertops be joined
within their range or at an angle.
□
The edges of the cutouts for the sink, hotplate, and so
forth, must be given greater protection. Seal the joint with
silicone.
