  • A fully loaded wall cabinet is a heavy item so hanging one in a wall that will stay one the wall is important. Watch me as I modify the suggested fixing and make sure my wall cabinet will be up forever.

    Just wanted to mention: be careful boiling the kettle underneath the cupboard. I have a relative who did this for years and eventually the surface of the cupboard door started to separate from the door. Hope you have a nice Easter weekend!

    Those B&Q units are rubbish & I would never buy them again. Why not use core fix screws, saves all that mucking about with filler?

    When holes are need to be drilled from the back of the cabinet, I use a very fine drill to start with from the back, then drill the size required from the inside of the cabinet. No splaying of finishing on the inside. Good videos Stuart I enjoying watching them each week, keep it up.

    Had the same shelves, disappointed to say the least, since scrapped and replaced with wooden cabinets, you will soon realise how rubbish those units are

    Weren't you incredibly irritated by the damage to the inside bottom left door??? I would be - I would have to put a dab of gloss paint on it to at least disguise it a bit.

    A client wanted a 2 metre wide Oak "Welsh Dresser" cabinet weighing over 60kg, fitted to a single skin breeze block dot & dabbed plasterboard wall. Dresser was to hold/display finest crockery. Used a 2 metre long cabinet hanging wall rail (cut down to fit inside of cabinet width end panels) & fixed rail to wall using nine Corefix Metal & Plastic Heavy Duty Dot & Dab wall fixings (10 × 95mm). Fitted a pair of 130 Kg rated Hafele Spider Concealed Cabinet Hangers (each with 4 off 10mm diameter metal dowel fixings) to inside back of cabinet end panels. Two of us lifted Cabinet onto Wall Rail & vertically/horizontally adjusted each cabinet hanger through two 25mm diameter holes in cabinet back panel, prior to fitting cover caps. That was several years ago & cabinet still on wall 👍

    Shame about the small chip on the inside bottom corner of the left hand door. Put some white sealer on it it's only going to get on your nerves over time or worse the missus will say so! Good video though as always, thank you.

    If they want you to droll through the backboard why didn’t they drill them when they were manufactured? Seems bizarre that the end user had to to it!

    It was a little flimsier than I expected. I had to add a 2x2 piece of wood to the bottom on the rear side in order to stabilize it better

    Another fantastic video, really appreciated the way you approached fitting the heavy cabinet, it’s always a worry not knowing if one has done enough to ensure a positive fixing, but using your recent lessons/video on plasterboard fixing you have shown how it’s done yet again ……. Brilliant video
