Base Corner Cabinets
The approach to install Base Corner cabinets is to attach
the adjacent cabinets on each side and install the group of
cabinets as a unit.
Dry t the Base Corner cabinet into the corner with both
adjacent cabinets in place on each side. Align the face
frames on the top and front surfaces, and clamp the
cabinets together; do not drill. When installed, the back
of the Base Corner cabinet will not touch the wall.
Measure for Countertop Braces and install per the
requirements found earlier. Brace length varies based on
cabinet model.
With the cabinets in nal position, shim so they match the
Base Cabinet Top Level Line, and all frames are ush and
plumb.
Predrill through the adjacent cabinet face frames into the
Base Corner cabinet and fasten with 2-1/2" screws, per
the Frame-to-Frame Attachment requirements.
INSTALLER NOTE: For Base Lazy Susan cabinets, use
2" screws per Screw Requirements.
Peninsula Base Cabinets
Peninsula base cabinets must be secured to the oor. Peninsula
Cabinets are secured to the oor with wood blocks behind the
toekicks, on each side of the cabinet.
To prepare blocking, square the Peninsula Cabinet with the
adjacent Base Cabinet and mark the oor at the toekick
locations, front and back.
Cut 2 x 4 wood blocks 8-12" long to t the underside of the
cabinet. Measure the thickness of the toekick and position
the blocks inside of the toekick line so the cabinets can be
positioned over them. Fasten the blocks to the oor.
Attach the cabinets together following the applicable
attachment procedures for shimming, leveling and attaching
face frames then use nish nails to attach the cabinets to the
blocks on the oor.
WARNING! Peninsula Base cabinets are
NOT for Island applications. Failure to follow
this limitation could cause serious injury
and damages to the cabinet that will not be
covered by the product warranty.
