I love the fact that you go old school on finding the high spot with the level 👌. Nowadays, we all use laser. But you can't ever go wrong with old school high spot finder . 👌

Great job! I love that there is no chit-chat and running commentary.😀You give the right amount of detail to do the job at hand. Very helpful! Thank you!

Thank you do much for your IKEA Cabinet installation video. I’m planning on installing all new base kitchen cabinets and a pantry. After watching your video, I bought and installed 2 base cabinets and they look great. Thanks to you and your helpful instructions. Now, I’m confident enough to install the rest. Back to IKEA. 😊

Thankyou! Explained the most important part of how to install cabinets; leveling, using correct screws, . Surprisingly this info is missing from a lot of other youtuber's how to do videos.

I really enjoyed your videos, it made it very easy to put the cabinets together! Now I have to add the hanging rail, not sure how to install it as the wall is concrete....any thoughts/ideas how to due safely, what could be behind it and how do I know that I am not drilling into a pipe or electrical??

Don't forget to run a level vertically on the studs to see if the wall is level. I installed my uppers and the L cabinet had a 1/2 inch gap between the boxes. I took everything down and had to shim the suspention rail. On one side of the wall my studs were level, on the other side, I had to shim over a 1/4".

Thanks for the video and I appreciate your willingness to hear feedback (I concur with the comments about too fast, albeit A+ for just getting to the point!). I'm installing LVP and the floor guys told me to install cabs *first*, which puts my Ikea Knoxhults on concrete slab. I keep getting conflicting info on this (ditto for bathroom vanity). What say you? Also, my cabs have cheap adjuster feet that keep moving on their own accord- any tips on how to make them behave? Thanks again (and I'm jelly of your job- I only get to DIY on my after work hours)!

@Daru Thank you so much for this video! I've watched a lot of videos trying to figure out how to find the high spot of the floor. I didn't understand why it is so important to know where it is until you explained the toe kick placement.

[xiaojies]

I think i need to pay ppl come to my house to do this, lol

This was great - Perfect video for a beginner with quick steps in the right order to make a quick and easy install!

[spiffybluehippo]

So glad I found your channel! I just finished installing an Ikea base cabinet. The next step is putting on the countertop. Can't wait for your next video!

[waynekey]

Thanks for sharing! What type and size of screws did you use to attach adjacent cabinets? I appreciate the detailed tips and video edits to make this a quick view.

[idntknwwhtnameuse]

my floor is pretty uneven... could I use the mid point of my slope? Can the front legs be shorter than the height specified... and then go to higher on the other end?

[noonsound]

I certainly appreciate a video that's quick to the point but this is insane. 😳😳

[ChristopherShawnPike]

Great video. Is this an edit down version from a full video?

[eartherinfire]

What screws did you use to attach the cabinets together? The washer head cabinet screws look like they were used in the anchors. Did your cabinet screws come with the cabinets?

[noodles]

Clear and concise - love it! How did you know the bottom of the suspension rail should be 32 3/16” from the floor?

[pennifold]

Thanks for the quick edit - was getting board of watching people slowly tighten screws! How did you get it on its legs without breaking them?
