I like to hide my mounting screws behind the shelves looks clean
Could work however sometimes the backing of the cabinet is too cheap to hang a cabinet from

Awesome. My previous homeowner removed the cabinets in the laundry room. This is exactly what I needed to know to put them back up. Thanks!
I worked for a kitchen company for three years, out of high school. One guy was a former electrician, one was a retired plumber. Great training for the handyman business. How I ended up a union glazier in NYC is anyone’s guess. But I still dabble when it’s slow in my trade. Much more fun.
Keep the videos coming. I never miss them.
Thank you Handyman for showing this video on cabinet installation. I appreciate you showing the use of tools and method of installation.
Really glad I found your channel. Im getting ready to start a kitchen reno. These tools will be a great addition. Great videos! Thank you!
Recently purchased a house I was about to install cabinets on my own. I’m so happy I found your video. You saved me so much money. Thanks for posting the tools used. You’re the man!!
I think this was one of your best videos as far as explaining what tools your using and how to do something. Normally you just record yourself. Thanks for sharing the tools your using,I know what I'll be buying on my next trip to the home improvement store. Love your videos and I recommend you to everyone. Keep up the great work.
I bought a pair of those bessy clamps after watching your first video. They are nice. I also bought four of those blue zip-up poles after you posted that video a few months back and have used them for holding plastic up. I bought a pair of the mini third-hand poles for mounting cabinets when you already have a countertop.
Good info. I like the third hands and use them often. A couple of other tips I use. I like to locate the top and bottom screws at the hinge location to hide them. I also use trim head screws to go through the face frames. McFeely's has really strong hardened screws that seldom break, even in hardwood. Proud to call myself a Handyman. Cheers!
I have always been a big DYI guy. I've even had a handyman business for awhile when I was younger. I must say that your vids are some of the BEST - thx
Very nice demo. The right tools make all the difference. I have two new dishwasher installs tomorrow and sure as shooting, the base cabinets will not be vertically square and at least one of the old ones will be a nightmare to extract because the floor tile was installed after DW was shoved in the hole, and the other one, I'll have to trim a cabinet to get the new DW pull down door to open correctly. But with the right tools, no sweat. keep up the good work Handyman.
Nice video h-man. As a veteran handyman I appreciate your videos. Not only are they a good help to many diy ers out there, but they may entice more young people to the trade that may otherwise feel that sitting in a cubicle banging on a computer is the only way to go. thanks.
Yah for that comment✅
Excellent vid Great explanation. On stud finder. They work best when you put it on wall let it set up about 2 seconds than move it across. Many hit button and move right away. Wait than move you’ll like it better. Thank you again. I have now learned another use for my fast cap poles!!
A few remarks. Thank you for including the following: tips, tricks, and tools needed (w/ hyperlinks). The clincher is that you aren't a jerk in the videos, or a know-it-all, and you speak coherently. Great video editing, as well. Really appreciate your page, Handyman. - Cheers!
philipphilip it’s amazing how successful you can be just being a normal person.
@@MookieMan1 - novel idea, right?! Cheers!
Thanks for the recommendations. Just ordered the clamps and third hand
Nice video, witch tools that are definitely a must for a good kitchen cabinet install! I recommend 3 clamps for alignment, e.g. top, bottom and center.
Handyman you continue to Rock it! I feel I am pretty handy but I always learn something new or you confirm I do something right or wrong when I watch your video. Thanks for being honest and humble.
Well we’ll we’ll.... looks like this guy will be ordering the third hand set and clamps😎Thanks for the info !
I used a truck bed cargo bar when I did mine. Has holes in the feet so I attached square pieces of wood.
Thanks for sharing so much excellent content. The third hand and face clamps are now in my tool arsenal! Thanks for sharing very helpful knowledge.
I have 2 of those bessey clamps; game changer tool right there!
Great video. It's enthusiastic and empowering. You do so well explaining simple things that are commonly overlooked.
I like the stud buddy from home depot. It just works off magnets finding the drywall screws. Works great, no batteries. It has never let me down like a stud finder has.
Always enjoy your videos there young man. Not sure if i missed it but showing how to shim the cabinets in different scenarios would be great. I am actually in the process of renovating our kitchen. My best too yo and your family,William
I recommend a ledger board that you pre level. This is great if you plan on a backsplash this would be a good reference point for measuring where your studs are in the wall.
Great idea, I do this every time. Makes solo installation much easier.
Hard work pays off. Thanks for sharing!
The Clamps look really cool. never saw those before. Third hand is a great tool also. Thanks for the video.
Great tool ideas !! Gotta get a pair of those cabinet clamps
Great I found the third hand.!!
Thanks for the instructions. Your doing a great job.
I searched CZcams for vinyl floor installation and you came up in the search. I’ve since binge watched for a week now tons of your videos. I find them entertaining and very informative. I also think you have a great personality and sense of humor. It’s funny how I try to find clues of your location in the country for no other reason other then trying to find a slip up on your part.lol Anyway, how in the hell do you keep a balanced relationship with your marriage? You seem to work a lot of late night hours and weekends.
Thanks for clams, I like them!!!
Your videos rock and I appreciate the links to all the tools!
Thanks dude , been working on cabinets lately super informative and helpful
Awesome video. Will remember this for that day I am asked to put some up & look at those tools used. Keep up the great work bud
You always have the MOST INFORMATIVE videos...Thanks!
Great video! The clamps are nifty!
Thanks showing those tools and their uses.
Thanks for the vid. Good stuff. Helpful!
Loving the vids Brother, keep 'em coming! I hope to have some up myself in the next few days.
Awesome job explaining!! Ty!
I do use the cabinet screws..an finish screws for face frames..AN YES A LAZER...HA..I USE THE SMALLER DRILL AN IMPACTS FOR CABINET WORK THOU.. keep up the beautiful work my friend
I have all these same tools if they would only work! But unlike the Japanese shovel that stands on it's own these tools work extremely well with a human involved. Six foot, Eight foot true straight edge and true plumb levels to true everything up . Also a ledger board for uppers will keep all cabinets of like kind on the same plane. great video ..
Thank you . I learned a lot .
awesome guide to installing cabinets
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you, we appreciate it!! This girl can💃🏽
Thanks so much for sharing!
Hi, just watched your "must have tools to install cabinets," gotta tell you, you make this so easy... Loved the video, your presentation was excellent, moreover, it will save me installation costs...
That video helped a lot! Thanks.
VERY informative video!!! Thank you!!!
Great demonstration and review of the tools
Thanks for your help!
Nice video.
All simple and clear.
Regular wood screws for the face frames, i drill them with a tapered countersink drill bit. GRK screws to attach to walls. You don’t want to get pull through for holding the weight of the cabinet. Good video.
Great demonstration!
That pole tool is 👌
13:04 Now THAT'S confidence in your work! ;-)
Great video as always. We have a different brand pole in Canada called “task” which strip easily. Going to try ordering your third hand ones on amazon. Haven’t seen those cheesy trim washers in years....Andy must of sold then to you....
LOVE the Wallobot
Love this video. Very informative and concise.
I am commenting to make this video grow in popularity.
Great video on the tools used to install cabinets. With a 3 inch wood screw isn't there a risk of puncturing an electrical wire or plumbing pipe?
Thanks for making such clear and to the point videos 👍🏿👍🏿
Great job thanks for the advice
Oh that walabot is all I use. It saved me from finding wood or metal studs with wires running through them so I didn't hit those wires or plumbing either while drilling or cutting into said wall. Go test it out and looking forward to your thoughts.
When Sheetrock is on the wall magnets work great for stud finding.
Thanks for the tips Handyman
Great channel! No cow? Btw, looks like a couple of those shelves were facing the wrong way with the unfinished end facing forward.
To add to this, I am torx/ star screws every where, cabinet screws a must, I like tools that double up, less to haul in and out.
My impact with 1/4” bits, just swap for star bit to drill bit on one tool. Face frame clamp is nice.
didn't hear you mention my first go-to stud finding technique. Just a flashlight up against the wall. Most mud jobs leave the screws plainly visible when you put a raking light to them.
Hi, thanks for the info!
This was a good learning video! Thanks
I am definitely curious to see how you like the walabot. Looking forward to that video
Have you ever used the EZ-Level cabinet levelers to install floor cabinets and if so what was your impression? They look like they would work pretty dang good and not a bad price either at about $7.50 a pop
cabinet leveling system... reminds me of those tile leveling clips
extremely helpful - thanks
For upper cabinets I put boards under to sit them on, just screw a 2x4 to the studs underneath the cabinets
To find studs I just use neodymium magnets. They stick to the walls where there's a screw, and where there's a screw there should be a stud. ;)
Great demonstration
Always good stuff.
Thanks for the tips
This is a real step up
I have the walabout, I used it today as a matter o fact. I know it saved me once for sure. Customer wanted a picture hung up on this one wall. Behind the sheetrock were two sets of pipes. Right where she wanted the picture.
I've been using a stud finder that is just basically some strong magnets. It picks up where the drywall was screwed into the studs. It has worked flawlessly so far, but obviously has its limitations.
Only problem with that is, it only finds nails and screws , your dependent on the last guy to be in,on the stud , doesn't actually find the stud .but kinda works i guess .
Another thing I do is rub a bar of soap along the screws before i put them in. As the screw turns, it heats up and melts the soap, which lubricates it and helps eliminate split stiles
great tip. I will have to try that one.
Good video that clamp is cool. Thanks
1980 called and wants the framed cabinets back, lol. Seriously though, good informative video...
Thanks for the very useful and informative video. Don't forget to flip those shelves around so the edge banding is out. May as well do it right.
The edge banding has fallen off these shelves. This is my work shop
Great video. I've been a trim carpenter for 20 plus years an installed probably 100 sets of cabinets before I discovered the face clamps. There are truly a life an back saver. Makes lining up the cabinet styles an rails effortless. I would check into trim head screws for attaching cabinets together. The head is just about same size as the screw itself. I swear you will love the results. An they are handy for a lot of other situations. I was in trim carpentry for a long time before I discovered trim head screws also. I'm definitely not trying to be condescending because I'm still always trying to learn. An watch your videos often to learn the business side of it all. An I've learned alot. Thanks an God bless
Thanks for the comment. I'm going to go look up the trim head screws right now. I appreciate the valuable information.
I just ordered a box. Thanks again.
No worries. Like I said been in it 20 years an still learning. I just discovered CA glue a week ago an used it atleast 10 times. I use it to glue crown an base returns an rolled corners. Saves me from having to glue em an then kill time waiting for dry time. I have learned a lot from your videos on talking to customers an selling my work at the prices it calls for. Estimating has always been intimidating at times. An it's easy to sell yourself short. When I watched your video I was like that's me going over what I'm gonna say an how I'm gonna respond. It's all about confidence an doing research to know what your talking about. Anyways it was awesome to see I'm not the only one running over it all in my head over an over. Sorry for the rant an keep it up brother
The clamps are great. Use them to get your drill bit to go in straight. Use #8 or #9 deck screws. Then use a long 1/8" drill bit to pre-drill. Use a drill stop or piece of tape to know when to stop drilling.
You can counter sink the screws in. Get a countersink bit or a countersing w/o bit.
Top banana as always an simpler easy way thank for sharing your experiences to make it easier for everyone zooeemamma lol
love the tool reviews, keep them up!
@@moneymakingmikeg.9555 dirty Jersey and the white fishes? Lol
If you haven't checked this guys channel out yet you should. His channel is awesome and he has so much useful information. He's my second favorite channel.
Hey Brotha! Can’t wait till your small bathroom, tile job, follow up video comes out! I enjoy and look forward to all of your videos!!
Hey Mr. Handyman, quick question. I have seen cabinets that are "floating" with no wall behind it. I would assume you would use the same method finding the studs in the ceiling to screw into?
Thanks!
Ready to go kick some ass thanks for the video
How about a stud finder, hole saw set for drilling plumbing holes, oscilating saw for trimming shims, foxtail brush for cleaning out the cabinets, and maybe a bar of parafin or soap to coat the screws so they drive into harder wood species without snapping.
That is awesome. Thanx
Franklin Stud finder hands down the best stud finder I’ve ever used
Very helpful. Nice work.
Great video as always Handyman!
Here's my comment. Because I liked it. Haha but seriously thanks for another good video
