All cabinet models have be designed and structurally reinforced for Wall Mounting.
Cabinets elevated above the floor allow easy cleaning and access underneath. In addition to a
more professional look and finish, wall mounting eliminates the dust balls around the legs and the
inevitable rusting on the leg leveling threads. We recommend that the rear of the cabinets rest on
a back support of either an existing protruding foundation stem wall or on a dimensional 2 x 6 or
2 x 4 fastened to the wall (see below).
Approximately 70% of the cabinet load will travel straight down the wall onto the back support and
the balance of the load is cantilevered forward. The back support removes most of the load/force
on the drywall screws used to fasten cabinets to the wall studs. The back support also makes
install much faster and allows for easier alignment when bolting adjacent cabinets together.
