Tall kitchen wall cabinets are definitely more common than you might think. In fact, according to manufacturers, the average height of a kitchen is around 67 inches. So as long as your kitchen actually has space for a bigger or taller cabinet, go ahead and get it! You will surely not regret it!

 

So how do you install tall kitchen wall cabinets? This is actually pretty easy. The first thing that you will need to do is make sure that the cabinet is actually tall enough to fit in your kitchen. You should measure from floor level to the highest wall (the one that your counter is on) to make sure that your new tall kitchen cabinet will fit. Most will actually have between four and eight shelves depending on what type of cabinet you have.

 

The next step is to measure out where you want your cabinet to go. This is a very important step. It will determine how big of a cabinet you will need to build. Many manufacturers will give you pre-made measurements, but it can be very difficult to take them all down to the right height. For tall kitchen wall cabinets, I recommend using an actual builder's tape measure and marking in sections so that your new cabinet will fit correctly once it is standing.

 

Once you have your measurements, you will want to start planning out where to put your shelves. If you are going with tall kitchen wall cabinets, you will probably want to go with a tall kitchen island or peninsula to hold all of your food items. Since tall kitchen islands and peninsula have longer sides, they have plenty of space to hold anything you would like to put on them. The best thing to do is to get a few boxes and tape them to the wall to act as guides for placing everything on the shelf. You will also want to place some measuring tape on the top to mark out where your shelves will go.

 

Once you have your wall cabinet built, you are ready to move on to the next step. If you are going with tall kitchen wall cabinets, then you are going to want to get some heavy duty hinges. That way, you can easily open up your cabinet doors without a problem. If you do not have the proper hinges, then you will have to hammer them in, which is much harder than it sounds. Make sure you measure the door openings before deciding on the hinges to go with your new kitchen cabinets.

 

After you have the necessary hardware in place, you are ready to start installing your new kitchen cabinets! Start by removing the old kitchen 36 upper cabinets. Remove the doors, hinges, drawer pulls, and anything else that may be attached to the wall. If you are not sure how to unsnap the wall, contact someone at your local Home Depot or Lowes to get the instructions for doing this correctly.

 

Measure the length from the floor to where you want your new kitchen cabinets to be and mark that on the wall. You will want to add one inch to that measurement because the height of the cabinets will vary depending on the height of your floor. Next, you will need to take your new kitchen cabinets home. You will need to assemble your pantry cabinets 8 to make sure that they fit in the space that you have available.

 

If you are using a standard size kitchen oven cabinet or if the new one you buy will not fit in the existing closet, you can use the same measurements to find the right replacement kitchen cabinet. For a standard size cabinet you will just need to add one inch to the height measurement and this measurement will give you the right replacement cabinet to fit into your bathroom wall. Take the new kitchen cabinet home and set it inside the existing closet. Use your wall anchor to hold it in place while you screw the hardware together.
