DIY How To Install Base Kitchen Cabinets | Basement Bar Build 

No problem Nancy! And I learned a lot before making this video from others as well. This was just my experience and what worked for me

Glad it helped!

Absolutely, glad it helped! Good luck with yours!

Appreciate it man

I did a separate playlist that was just the bar area.

@@LifeofBliss Yeah I found that after! I guess I should have looked a little harder lol!

Not really. I obviously used shims to fine tune everything but there was no major issue with a high spot.

I did not... guess I could have for 3 of the 4 on the back wall and then added the 4th. Not a bad idea man. Are you worried at all about having shims on the back for support? Would be more difficult if they are one unit already I would think.

Thanks. Its actually tile. I have a few videos on the tile process and grouting if you look back at the build videos on my channel

Thanks man. The gfci outlet is the first outlet on the circuit, so its on there 👍

Life of Bliss understood. But I’m pretty sure all outlets within 6ft of water have to be gfci by code.

@@dwynne1220 yea that's what I've read. It looks like as long as they are protected by a gfci upstream, all outlets downstream are ok. No need to double gfci on the same circuit. Then to "meet code" they just require a sticker saying they are gfci protected. That part is kinda weird, but i guess if someone didn't know it'd be helpful. Just what I've been able to find... all of my circuits have a gfci as the first outlet, so all outlets should be covered. Thanks for the heads up 👍

Thanks! I'll have to check and get back with you

Find which cabinet will sit the highest, then use shims for all the other cabinets to level them off of that one

@@LifeofBliss thank you good sir :)

I believe all I used was a level, shims, wood screws, drill, stud finder, tape measure, and a few clamps

No, didn't have feet on them. Not too worried. They lowest shelf is a few inches off the floor anyways. The bottom of the cabinet carcus might get a little wet if it flooded, but there would be multiple issues if it got that wet down here

As someone who did this for the first time, I found it best to do it as fast as possible to avoid mistakes. 😂

Every circuit has a gfi outlet in the basement. First outlet on the circuit. Those outlets were further down the line.

A place in Wichita called builder preferred cabinets

A cabinet shop in Wichita ks. No longer in business unfortunately.

We used a company that carried many different manufacturers to choose from, but I believe these are made by RD Henry. Knotty Beech Wood. Hope that helps

I don't see how installing the cabinet backwards will be better.... but you must know something I don't.

@@LifeofBliss Yes. I know many things you do not. Good luck.
