Fasten the corner cabinet loosely to the wall with 3" wood screws. Shim the cabinet to make it level and plumb. When the cabinet is perfectly plumb and level, tighten the screws. (Fig. 2a) If you are using a Blind Corner Wall Cabinet, be sure to pull it out from the corner the distance indicated on your floor plan drawing.

Filler

To turn the corner from the installed Blind Corner Wall Cabinet, attach a filler strip trimmed to fit using 1½" screws to the side of the adjacent cabinet. Screw from the inside of the cabinet, and into the filler strip. (Fig. 2b) Continuing by installing adjacent wall cabinets. Pre-drill the back of the adjoining cabinet through the hanging rails to line up with the wall studs.

Position the adjoining cabinet so that the front edges of both cabinets are flush, using shims if necessary. Cabinets should always be plumb and level. Attach loosely to the wall, and attach the cabinets together using clamps. Pre-drill four 1/8" diameter holes through one cabinet in the locations shown in the diagram. Do NOT penetrate the adjoining cabinet! Secure the cabinets together using 1-1/8" flathead screws and cup washers (not supplied). (Fig. 2c) Finish by tightening the cabinet securely to the wall. Continue until all wall cabinets are installed. *Blu-motion Soft Close Notice: 40" high doors require 2 soft close per door.
