The island is tricky.

How to level ikea floor cabinets.

For placing and leveling the suspension rails the bottom one for this comment i first leveled the bottom left cabinet one of the two bottom cabinets and lined it up where i wanted it. Build what looks like a small wall out of plywood i use 4 rips. It gives you better yield on panels by getting six cabinet sides instead of four per panel. I am not sure how you anchored it but you can use 2 4 base and shim the cabinets level and that way you can secure the base to the floor and the cabinets to the base.

I have gotten them very level with a 4ft level i mounted the brackets on the wall with a laser level. There are hooks on the back of the cabinet that hang to the lower portion of the rail and are fastened in place. I then attached the suspension rail to the brackets using ikea s elongated fasteners but did not tighten then all the way vertically. You ll be ready to slide cabinets from furniture dollies on to kicks.

Any diyers install their ikea base cabinets for granite. Hanging the cabinets will go much more smoothly given rails are installed nice and level using wood shims where needed. A large level is easy to pass from hand to hand and harder to lose in the chaos of your construction zone. Go with the ladder.

Ikea did make an island system and we have had good luck with it as long as the island is not over 4 long and 2 wide. I m a little nervous because i heard they have to be perfectly level for granite. Because ikea cabinets only have legs used for when the cabinets are attached to the wall. I am just don t know how perfect they have to be.
