How to Perfectly Level and Install Kitchen Cabinets

HOW TO INSTALL YOUR CABINETS PERFECTLY LEVEL 😎
1. Buy shims. ALL 👏🏼 THE 👏🏼 SHIMS
2. Draw a line with your level at the highest point of your floor. Always remember most floors and walls are NOT level
3. Once you have your line drawn, start at the back of the cabinet first. You’ll want to wedge the shims on both sides by tapping with a hammer until the back of the cabinet matches the level line that you drew.
4. Check that it’s level and if it’s good secure it with a cabinet screw to the wall on a stud
5. Now that the back is attached and level, move your level to one side of the cabinet and repeat the process while adding shims under the front side of the cabinet. These will be hidden when you add your toe tick so don’t worry about them being seen.
6. Check that your level on all 4 sides and voila!

And check to make sure it is plumb (vertical) too. Great job!

Wouldn’t advise this way from my kitchen fitting experience. But fair play for taking it on.

Good video! Can you make a video taking the level of the cabinets above?

[LUXVENATL]

Once you screw the cabinets to the wall, do you remove the shims?

[SignWithCourtney]

I never would have thought of this. Awesome.

[kokosfab]

Are the shems removed after the cabinets are drilled in?

[phillippettit]

So you have a video about how you covered your torn up wall with back splash? I have a torn up wall and lost on what the next step is.

[mikechandler]

First thing is find the highest point on your floor where the cabinets go and then at that point mark your cabinets height. That will be the start point for your level line

[NateTheGreat-cl]

Make sure you level it with shims first before screwing into the wall.

[jordantripp]

Question do you leave the shims there after you secure it to the wall?

[Wasted-Life]

Sooo much easier with adjustable legs 😅

Great job!!

[temperances]

What do you do with the wood pieces after they’re level?

[Rafael]

and do you remove the shims after that?

[theresamayfield]

Do the shims get in the way of the kick board or do you take them out after the cabinet is attached to the wall? Dumb question I know!

Where did you get the cabinets? They look really nice.
