Wow, thanks! Hope your installation goes well.

Thank you, very pleased to help you complete your project

That's awesome Stephen, send some pictures of your new space , it would be great to see. Robert

Same here. I wanted to see if he removed it or sawed the exposed portion off.

@switchdoor2011 Exactly the only part I really needed to see. Has this been addressed?

Given that the the base units are hung onto the rail, and also with extra screws into the studs, most of the weight is on the studs. Therefore some weight going onto the legs won’t be an issue.

once all the cabinets are installed and put together you can pre drill a 3mm hole in a few of the remaining holes in the drawer slide and screw in a screw, 1 1/4" if two frames are side by side . This will give great strength to especially 15" high drawers. If a drawer frame is at the end of a run of frames you can still screw in some extra 3/4" screws that would need to be purchased from hardware store ( #8 3/4" countersunk wood screws)

Just watch the toe kick section....darn not as helpful as i was hoping. Im pretty handy but have zero experience in this area wish it was bit more detailed step by step....including different scenerios. I have no uppers only several lowers to fit in between two walls . Beside each end cabinet i have gaps one at about 2 inches.....other at roughly about 4 inches. Walls are not straight. So whats 4 inches at bottom is probably closer to 5 inches toward the top. 🤯🤦‍♀️ wall scribing is out of my comfort zone. 😢

The best solution here is after you have installed all your uppers and hung the doors so everything looks good. Remove the doors and install a piece of primed material shaping it to fill the gap between the cabinets and the ceiling. Caulk any gaps and paint this piece same colour as your ceiling. This is the best solution I I found over the 35 years of installing kitchens.

Yes, You've got it. This really helps secure the box to the wall

Yes, that is correct

Thank you. We hope that your kitchen has turned out well and you are enjoying your new space

Thank you

He might be going from the top of the rail? In any case it's definitely 32 3/16" from the bottom of the rail. Lots of people on these IKEA instructional videos coming up with other numbers when it's very clearly stated by IKEA.

@@AC-cg6op Yeah that’s probably it, measuring in reference to the top of the rail. Thanks

Most quartz counters are 3cm thick which is the most widely used counter material. Our measurement reflects this to have your finished counter height 36" Good luck with the install.

@@switchdoor2011 you explained that perfectly in the video but, no one pays attention anymore. It all depends on the thickness of the counter top you’ll be using

You would need to use concrete anchors in this situation

They are found at most tile stores and Home Depot in tile supply section

Any tiling supplier inc Home Depot

You can do it. Find a trusted friend who is patient and do this together. Rent the tools you need at the time you need them and methodically go through the stages step by step. Good luck and enjoy

Please contact us and we can chat about that

Please let me know where you feel we went wrong. Always willing to learn

​@@switchdoor2011 Thank you for not being offended 🙂 "Incorrect" may not describe what I meant to, but certain things don't make sense at all. My comments below are based on Ikea's own instructions and best practices from installing 200+ Ikea kitchens personally. Did I learn something from your video? Yes, opening the boxes with a putty knife. Good idea. RAILS: Measurements for the rail. It is not 34 1/2" to the top of the rail, but 32 3/16" to the bottom. The top of the rail is not at the same height as the top of the cabinet, but a bit lower. The same goes for the pantry cabinets. Not 94 1/2" and 84 1/2" but 92 3/16" and 82 3/16". Also, when hanging the rails it is important to mention that if the floor goes in after the kitchen, the rails should be offset with the thickness of the rail. Drilling holes in the rails for screws take away any option to adjust the rails in height. Not needed and a waste of time if you ask me. CABINETS: Drilling holes for screws into the cabinet cables is pointless. Not needed. The lock nut/disc is doing a great job and when cabinets are sitting shoulder to shoulder, they cannot come apart. Measuring the diagonal before nailing...pointless as you use the back as a square (as described by Ikea too). Alternatively use a carpenter's square. Cabinet assembly can be done in many ways. Yours are not great IMHO. DRAWER ASSEMBLY: There's a much better way of putting the hardware together, and countings holes for positioning the hardware inside the cabinet is not needed as well. Counting is so time-consuming. I am not going to explain why and how I do it as it will become too long a story. Securing an island to the floor. Why not use the island kit? Your process "must be done over a couple of days"....wow... Black/yellow screws for securing cabinets together. Seriously? I agree that the plastic things at the bottom of the wall cabinets are poop but going through the whole ordeal with the wooden strips. Phew....makes me exhausted. And forever and ever, the client has to look at a screw at the back inside the wall cabinet. Not cool. Potlights with a double bottom/shelf? I am flabbergasted. It must take you forever to install a kitchen, based on what I see. Handdriven screwdriver for drawer hardware. Counting holes. Waiting for the glue to cure and so on. 80% of my kitchens are installed in four days. Top job.

Sorry to hear that your experience with Ikea was not a good one. Our company just uses their frames and drawer hardware. Then we install our own doors and panels. We have over 300 styles to choose from. This video also shows you how to make the Ikea frames much stronger.

IKEA has a 25 year warranty on their cabinets and 5 year install warranty, wtf r u talking about

@@James-dy6zh I am talking about the Fake product that is being sold in US market. I have spent over $8K on their kitchen cabinet which worth nothing, the laminated cover on the doors and drawers near by the kitchen sync pilled off after the fist few months. Their customer service is next to poor. By the way learn how to talk to people online before being reported!!! I mean it!

Can you support the channel please?
