Can they be installed in the perimeter walls of a developed basement?

0

Yes, if you have a standard 2×4 framed wall in front of the concrete foundation. Although there is vapor barrier and insulation in these walls, our cabinets can be installed into below ground perimeter walls if care is taken to retain as much insulation value as possible between the cabinet back and the concrete. Equally important is the integrity of the vapor barrier. Use additional plastic and overlapping seams to create a recess or pocket into which the cabinet will install. The overlapping seams in the vapor barrier must have a continuous bead of caulking approved for the purpose.
