Installing Base Cabinets On Tile

Then install cabinets then the tiles can go down.

Installing base cabinets on tile. Drive 3 inch screws through the wood and into the tile to anchor the wood frame to the floor. Switch the drill bit with a screwdriver bit. Just make sure the durock or tile backer is down first.

I personally like this method if using a very long lasting durable floor like hardwood or upscale tile. For tiles the idea would be to have the tiles down first. For a diyer this method can be much easier.

To prepare for installing the base cabinets lay a 6 foot level on the floor in several places to identify the high spot. I would not do this over vinyl or cheap flooring that will not outlast the cabinets. As noted earlier if you are installing thin flooring such as luxury vinyl laminate or tile it is possible to lay the flooring right up to the cabinets.

But it works either way. But sometimes a wavy wall or an. 8 set the cabinets on the wooden frame and align flush.

There is much less detailed cutting and fitting around cabinets the fit to the walls does not need to be perfect where it is hidden by the cabinets and less. The second option is to lay the floor first and install the base cabinets on top of the finished floor. Shim the cabinet up to the level line make sure it is level front to back and screw it to the wall.

Installing base cabinets seems pretty straightforward. From the floor s high spot measure up 34 inches and mark the wall.
