    Cabinet Installation

    1. To add extra support for the cabinet, install a cleat, which is a board that is screwed into the studs of the wall.

    2. After securing the cleat to the wall, place the cabinet onto the cleat. Secure the cabinet by using a screw gun and screws.

    A cabinet is a great storage solution for your laundry room. It can hold your laundry items, while adding style. They come in all sorts of colors, shapes and sizes.

    This once scattered laundry room is now organized. There are no more Wasted Spaces!
    Tips:

    • Make certain to keep in mind the height of the washer and dryer, when the doors of the cabinets are opened.

    • Consult a plumber and electrician before relocating your washer and dryer.

    • Before reinstalling the washer and dryer, it's a good idea to make sure all of the hoses are in good condition.

    • Keep the duct work clean from lint and dust because they can be a fire hazard.

    • Dryers need 220 volts of power. Always consider that when you are moving appliances around in your laundry room. It's a good idea to consult an electrician when moving the volt power outlet.
