Begin
by installing the corner cabinet(s). Align the corner cabinet so that
the top is level and even with the 34½" line marked on the wall. This
is done by turning the adjustable legs. (Fig. 3)
When the cabinet is in place and level, pre-drill pilot holes
through the hanging rail at the rear of the cabinet, making sure they
are aligned with the wall studs. Attach the cabinet loosely to the
wall, making sure you hit the studs. Check that it is still level, and
turn the adjustable legs if necessary. Tighten the screws.
Continue to install adjacent base cabinets, using the same technique you used to attach adjacent wall cabinets.
Blind Corner Base Cabinets: Be certain to pull a
blind corner base cabinet out of the corner by the distance indicated
on the floor plan. Attach a piece of 1x4 board (not supplied) to the
wall at the 34½" mark to support the countertop. Use the same method
described for Blind Corner Wall Cabinets to turn the corner.
