How Do You Install A Kitchen Wall Cabinet At An Angle?
When planning a kitchen, the aim is to make use of all the space and all the prefabricated cabinets you have available. If you have a corner in the kitchen, a corner cabinet is the ideal way to make use of what could be dead space. Even if you have no corner cabinets, you can still install a wall cabinet at an angle. Examine the backing of the cabinets. If it is a sturdy wood-backed cabinet, it may support the weight of the cabinet on its own. If it has flimsy cardboard and doesn’t have a mounting strip, you may need to reinforce it with a 2-inch strip of plywood, glued and nailed to the top and bottom. Mark where the bottom of the cabinets will be on the wall. This is usually 54 inches above the ground or 18 inches above the countertop. Measure the appropriate angle for the cabinet. Measure the height of the cabinets, and note where the reinforcements or mounting strips from Step 1 are, if any. Mark these on the wall, or if there are none, mark 4 or 5 inches in from the top and bottom
