Specifications

7 Level Cabinets – Locate each cabinet and
check the height and level. Some adjustment
to the adjustable feet on each cabinet may
be required.
8 Line up kitchen components – Place all
cabinets in their correct location. Ensure
they are the same height and level. Once
this is done, screw cabinets to the wall and
together as required
9 Measure and position rangehood – If you
are installing a rangehood, measure the
space and position of the rangehood for
fixing. A good tip here is to make sure you
have a suitable framing place to secure the
rangehood in step 4.
10 Positioning the bench top – The most
important thing is to take your time and
follow the instructions. Ensure that the
bench top is level and fits squarely against
the walls and into the corners. Use a high
quality sealer to finish off wall joins.
11 Installing toe-kicks – Toe-kicks can be
installed using feet clips. Take time to
measure lengths twice or more before you
make any cuts. If using an aluminium toe-
kick you may need to use a special metal
cutting blade.
12 Sinks and tapware – To ensure the best fit,
the sink, tapware and wastes should be
installed by your plumber once you have
the cabinets and bench tops in place.
13 Appliances – Choose your kitchen
appliance and ensure that all its installation
requirements are met to ensure effective
operation.
14 Fridge and cabinets – Ensure you select a
fridge that meets your current and future
needs. Also, allow sufficient space and
ventilation for the appliance to operate to
the manufacturer’s specifications.
15 Pantry and bench tops – The age-old axiom
that “you can never have enough storage”
is true. Make sure you plan sufficient
storage to meet your needs and also
convenient to the food preparation areas.
